i happen to run one of the companies that does hair wraps on disney property.
hair braids are cornrows...the only place we know of on property that does them is periwigs at the yacht and beach club resort...this is by appointment only.
as for the hair wraps, they are everywhere...some of the places have temp. shut down due to the decline in tourism, but you should still be able to find them...a hairwrap is a small section of hair, usually taken behind the ear, and wrapped with up to four different colors of floss. the wrap goes to the end of the hair, then beads are added. they are $1.50 per inch, plus the price of beads. if you like, ask for an estimate before you begin.
as long as the hair is at least 5 inches long, they can get a hairwrap on shorter hair, but it won't last as long. whether you have fine hair or not, it shouldnt matter....we just take a little bit more hair to make it more stable..what you want to worry about is if the person with fine hair will play with the wrap...it they twist it, swing it, chew on it, it won't last long at all...the length of time a hairwrap lasts, all depends on the care and the type and texture of hair. of course, if the person is new or have been doing wraps for a long time may have something to do with it too, but you didnt' hear that from me.lol. all hairwrappers are licsenced by the board of cosmetology.
also, for people getting cornrows..be sure to use sunblock between each braid...burns on the scalp HURT....if you have any other questions, let me know
