Our story

Welcome to African Hair Braiding by Koumba website. We are from senegal and we have been braiding hair since over 10 years . Talented professional African braiders , we do all style of braiding hair , or sewing weaves or extensions: We do it all: Micros, singles braids , weaves, invisible, tree braids, individuals, twists, Senegalese twists ,box braids, and more and more. You name it we do it. We are a team of professionals dedicated to providing total customer satisfaction. Our goals are simple: to provide expertise and support for all your hair braiding style.

Traditional sew in weaves (commonly referred to as just ``sew in`` or ``weave``) are a great choice for changing your look dramatically. The process involves synthetic or human hair attachments which are woven into your existing hair. Braids are used as the base of the style.

Kinky Twists is a two-stranded hairstyle in which the hair is woven into spirals. This look can be created using your own natural hair or by using synthetic, protein, pony or human extensions . Kinky Twists are known for their easy maintenance and take anywhere 4-5 hours to complete.

The Box Braids is a type of hair extension which is rapidly growing in popularity. They are similar to Micro Braids except for the fact that Box Braids use synthetic hair rather than natural hair. Box Braids consist of four-strand braids created by crossing opposing strands, one pair on top of the other.

Knotless box braids are everything you want in a hairstyle. Not only do they look effortlessly cool, but they are also versatile, flattering, and protective, doing less damage to your hair than traditional box braids. A type of feed-in braid, knotless box braids don’t put tension on your scalp with an ‘anchor knot.’ Instead.

Micro braids hairstyles is one of the most popular types of braids hairstyles I see in the African and African American hair community. Micro braids are smaller size braids that can be curly, straight, or wavy. These braids take 6 or 7 hours to do it , but they can last longer than other braids as well.

Cornrows, also known as track braids or flat braids are braids that lay against the scalp. Made through a process of braiding and picking up hair along a row, they may be created using the person's own hair, or through the use of hair extensions.

Consultation

A consultation is important so you can let your hair braiders know the look you're going for and what type of hair would be best for your situation. With proper care and maintenance micro braids can last 2 to 4 months. Women have been using hair braiding styles for a long time to style their hair. And black hair braiding is one of the most popular styles. thanks every body.

I'm so thankful I found an amazing braid shop. African Hair Braiding by Koumba is one of the best. I relocated to San Diego from another state. I was really nervous about finding a new braider. I'm so happy I made the right choice. Thanks for great service ladies!

I love getting my hair done at African Hair Braiding by Koumba1. There is never a wait. They're always ready at your appointment time.2. If you ask the not to braid your hair tight, they actually listen. So many places will braid it tight even if you're sitting in the chair crying.3. Excellent pricing. I've paid double for less quality service.4 Their salon is very clean.5 They will try different styles, which I love. I wanted goddess locs with a bang. Not a normal request and I love it the results.6 I always meet amazing women there. Even the clientele that come there are awesome7 Easy to get to their location and plenty of parking.

I enjoyed my time here. I got twists about a month and a half ago and I’m just now writing a review because I wanted to see how they would hold up. They still look very nice as you can see. And I’m very active and sweat a lot so with proper care and wearing a scarf while at home has definitely helped. This has been my favorite hairstyle that I’ve had for A while now. And I definitely will be going back to get more!
