Koro African Hair Braiding 237 East 194th Street, The Bronx, NY 10458

"The ladies were very friendly and I enjoyed the environment. Fatima did an excellent job on the hairstyle that I wanted just like I ask her."

"they did a good job braiding my hair i am definitely going there again to get it braided"

"Koro, the owner was very rude to me today. When I first entered I greeted her hello, with kindness didn’t receive greeting back but fine. I then proceeded to show her what I wanted and let her know I called earlier to inquire about a hairstyle and I showed her what I wanted and if I would be able to come as early as I can the next day just so they can already be prepared and expecting my arrival as the hairstyle does take hours. She then rudely responds “and I ALSO told you we close at 7.” (I arrived at 6:22) after that I was a bit taken back so I snap back saying obviously, I just wanted to show you what I wanted just so you can ensure me you’ll be available to do so early in the morning. She then points to another braider and says “Talk to her” still with an attitude mind you I wanted her to do my hair but I talk to the other braider who was very sweet and she told me she can do it and gave me a time and a even cheaper price from which I was told. But truthfully after I left I decided I will not be spending my money there anymore. I’ve been going there since I was a child when they FIRST opened and it was RIDICULOUS how i was spoken to for an inquiry. The only reason I even went is because I’ve went to school with the family and it’s a place my family and I have known for years. I’m not sure if she didn’t recognize who I was, but even if I was a stranger have respect for customers as a customer would respect you. Unacceptable."

"This place has really talented braiders. They can do any style you tell them and make it better. Told her what I wanted she gave me a reasonable price. And they wash condition and dry your hair before braiding. Will definitely recommend and come back. My hair was only 3 inches long and they still found a style for me. I’m sure if you go with shorter hair they can still manage to find a style for you."

"Went there for the first time and I absolutely love my hair. They are very respectful and courteous. It is a little distance from my house but I will certainly be going there from now on. Really love them. Only problem they braid a little too tight but at least my hair will last longer . Would definitely recommend them. Nice place to go and is very clean and comfortable."
