Laila's Hair Salon in Fort Washington, MD

My natural hair is black , Layla has dyed my hair brown with blonde highlights in the past. Every week I went to Layla for a wash, condition , blow dry and flat iron. Needless to say my hair became damage from the weekly excessive heat. Years pass without going to Layla or any other salon. No heat or chemicals. I now have curly hair past my shoulders. When straightened,  down to my back. (Shrinkage is real)  I also now have gray hair. I called Laila to get my hair dyed black. Black is my natural color. She told me she will dye my hair brown not black. She then told me how she is a doctor for hair and knows about beauty . Oh and how looking like a grandma is not beautiful. That's Cookoo. Laila Cook can be the worst when it comes to customer service because she can be very delusional ,rude and close minded. Besides thinking she is the only one in the world that can do hair she doesn't listen to the customer. Laila dyes her own hair black for the same reason I wanted my hair dyed black, to cover up the grays. I do not want bleach in my hair. I love my curls. Why is that wrong? Btw. Grandmas are beautiful too. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I dropped by Laila's salon one day at random. I was new to the area and wanted to find someone to give me a trim. She was incredibly welcoming, halirious, and kind. She took time out of her day to look at my hair and gave me some simple tips for taking care of it without spending tons of money. I listened to her and my natural "4c" hair is longer and healthier than it's ever been. For years my hair wouldn't grow much past my neck. After talking to Laila and taking her advice, it's now nearly mid-back. I'm so grateful to her and encourage folks to see her!

aggressive, loud and rude. Never on time and don't know what she is doing. Wasn't pleased at all. Overcharged for something I could have done. Plus , it wasn't what I asked for she did what she wanted and then tried to lie and get loud around others. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME ON LAILA COOK

I always turn to Yelp for help and I am glad I did. Laila is awesome. She had 2 clients going at the same time but I had plenty of time on my hands so I didn't mind. I'll be going back for sure. I love her personality.

Laila is amazing. Very knowledgeable about hair. You can clearly see that she is passionate about hair and her profession. I received a wash and deep conditioner treatment. She does not use product and yet my hair was left healthy and bouncy.
