Getting faux locs done in Kileleshwa
Getting to you
Off Othaya and Laikipia Roads; the ring-road layout means braiders ask for a pin rather than a street name.
We braid at homes, hotels and Airbnbs around Kasuku Centre, Othaya Road, Laikipia Road and the streets off them, so a pin drop is usually all your braider needs.
How booking works here
Kileleshwa is dense with newer apartment towers, so we often braid in a unit with a lobby desk — leave your braider's name at reception.
Pick your style and time, we send a vetted braider out to Kileleshwa with all tools, products and extensions, and you pay the balance once she arrives.
