I started House of Ace with the objective of filling a big gap in the market. Growing up there were no beauty salons that catered to Afro Caribbean hair. I wanted to create not just a salon, but a safe haven! An experience for individuals of all backgrounds & ethnicity. A space where all your beauty needs are catered to. A place for men and women to get pampered and leave not just looking beautiful, but feeling it too

Ace of Braids was founded by CEO Nyasha who specialises in braids, weaves and afro/caribbean hair styling.
Having started braiding at the age of 14, she has spent years perfecting her craft and has solidified her place within the hair industry. Not only has this helped her build up a loyal consistent customer base, but it has also allowed her to build a large diverse portfolio of celebrity clients, ranging from, reality tv stars to footballers. Ace of Braids is well integrated within the community. Having collaborated with some of the North East’s top unis, as well as known establishment China White, Nyasha has shown a dedication and drive to ensuring her business not only thrives but it is now on the map. She has gone on to open a salon House of Ace, located in Newcastle city centre.
