    I just recently got my hair done at Coumba's Braiding shop. I was so impressed with the result. My hair looks really good. I honestly think she's the best braider on Central.

    The last 3 years I have been going to two other braiding shop on Central Avenue-I won't name names here-until the other day,after a positive recommendation from my best friend to go there.I went online to read some reviews,one negative and the others positives.I called the number,and a lady named Coumba answered the phone.I asked her if I can come in right away that day(Sunday) to get my hair done.I was getting ready for a very special occasion that afternoon.She said that her shop is usually closed on Sundays but,none the less,agreed to meet me there in 45mins.
    I rushed to get there,by the time I parked and got my extension from the shop next door,Coumba showed up.
    She helped chose a nice style for me.I was little hesitant about that style,because I never had that done before.But I trusted her some reason,because she just seemed she knew what she was doing.I seldom do that.
    For a style that usally takes up to 6hrs,i was told.she was done just less then 5hrs.
    I was speechless,that's how happy I was.Everything was tight just how I like,most importantly I looked at the back with the help of all the big mirrors in there to see how those were done.I was also amazed,they were great and same sizes as the front ones.My big problem with the other shop is they are really sloppy when it comes to doing the back.Most of the time,those braids are way much bigger then the front ones.They assume that you don't see the back that much,therefore,they do wherever they please.
    I really appreciate that lady,she came in on no notice on her off day for a complete stranger and did a wonderful job.I never been happier with my hair. After I got home,I received nothing but positve vibes from friends and family members.Everybody was asking,"where did you get your hair done,girl?".

    From now on,I'll keep going back there,and I'll recommend Coumba Hair to every one.
    Thank you,Coumba for a job well done.
