What People Are Saying
I was lucky to find Koko's. I was looking for someone at the last minute to braid my hair. She was available. Her price was affordable for the style I wanted, compared to everyone else. She was close by to the hotel I was staying at. Her place was nice, clean and pink, which is my favorite color. Everyone loved my hair especially since I've never had this style before.
- Tee.I’ve been coming to Koko for over 10yrs . Koko & Jaynaba provide exceptional service . They do an amazing job on my hair every time . There is Beautiful ambiance in her shop as well . I highly recommend you check them out
- Maria Hill.I booked an appointment over the phone for 9:00 AM, but when I arrived I had to wait 2–3 hours before anyone started on my hair. I also showed a picture of the style I wanted, but the result didn’t match what I asked for. The braids were extremely tight, and overall the service cost me $180.
- Genesis Smith.Come here and you will feel like a Luxurious princess. I am so happy I found a new place in LB to go to for hair. They are very nice African people and welcome you with so much grace into the shop. They are very kind. Reasonable prices as well!! I paid 200 for Fulani braids with weave.
- Ella Kadis.I went got my hair braided @ Koko’s the ladies there are very friendly. They do a very good job, gave me good advice on how to maintain my hair and how long I should be keeping my braids. I will definitely be going back and will be recommending my friends and family to be going there. I love ambience and feel of the salon very clean and well maintained.
- Susan Mativo.Koko and geneva were excellent. They provided everything including customer service. Whenever i get my hair done, this is where I’m going. There was a third girl who did excellent with my parting. 10/10 would recommend the vibe is A1.
