We are an LGBTQ safe space and are committed to nurturing an anti- racist environment where our employees and customers alike are treated with compassion, respect a

For a season where we often wish to wear not much at all, fragrance can be another way to express ourselves creatively.
We’re excited to offer a new workshop in partnership with local bespoke perfumier, .libertine.x on Sunday, June 22nd at 2pm!
This workshop invites guests to design their own signature summer scent from a curated palette of seasonally inspired ingredients. The experience is an exploration of texture, temperature, and atmosphere through fragrance. Expect fruits, florals, musks, and a few surprises!
Summer Scent Highlights:
This season’s palette is inspired by heat, lush blooms, and the beauty of bare skin.
Notes & accords include:
💐Frangipani, jasmine, honeysuckle, orange blossom
🥭Apricot, fresh citrus, mango, melon, and creamy coconut
🌿Green florals, tomato leaf, herbaceous, tea notes
🪵Clean, light musks, earthy vetiver, and rich woods
🌊A trace of beachy salt and coastal air
These are scents for the height of summer, wild gardens, golden hours, and nights that last forever.

The feeling when you see your true self reflected✨✨✨
We’ve been providing Gender-Affirming makeup services since 2016, and in that time, we’ve seen so many beautiful transformations happen in our makeup chair. Some clients find us when they’re just starting to explore their gender identity, and others come to us when they’re ready to take their makeup to the next level. We’ve seen people in their early 20s to their late 70s discover a part of themselves that has been waiting to be expressed. We are here for it all 🌟

To celebrate Pride month, we’re offering 10% off our M2F + M2F Transformation appointments when you book your service online and use the code PRIDE. 🏳️⚧️ We look forward to being your mirror!

Happy Pride Month! 🌈❤️🏳️⚧️ Love cannot be legislated! Gender is a social construct and all makeup is Gender-Affirming! Drag is art! Trans people have always existed and will continue to exist! Joy is a powerful act of Resistance!
May this month serve to remind all who feel alienated and scared how loved and sacred they are. Our community is strongly united, fiercely protective, and able to wear spandex in extreme temperatures. Don’t let the weak and fearful tyrants make you question your right to live your life authentically. You are SO LOVED 🌟❤️🔥🌟

If you’ve ever been shopping in our wig room, you know how hard it can be to decide between the long fluffy hot peach lace front, and the short blunt stacked brown bob with highlights…but we take these important life decisions seriously and are here to hold space for your fake hair journey 🎀 (Spoiler Alert: she chose the long and wavy neon yellow mane) 💛
I’m here til 7 today if you’re in the mood for a new ‘do!

🩵 Gemini Season 🩵 Twinning is winning! 👯 We’re here for the late night convos, the stacked social calendar, the chaotic good, the mood swings, Joy as Resistance, and the outfit changes! 🩵

There was a time when you couldn’t learn how to do just about anything from watching a YouTube video, and when the tricks and trade of styling wigs were a gate-kept secret, not an entire TikTok subculture. I’ve ruined a LOT of wigs and huffed a lot of hairspray while teaching myself by trial and error how to style synthetic hair 😭I don’t have photos of the botched attempts, because documenting failures has only recently become a practice of mine, but they still happen!
As part of my reflection on our past 15 years, I wanted to share some of my favorite customs from over the years. And for any of y’all who are learning or want to learn how to style your own, I’d like to share with you this important piece that took me awhile to learn: there will always be an ugly phase. You’ll think it’s beyond saving and there goes another pile of hair, ruined. Don’t despair! The ugly phase is an important part of the process (as with most art); take a break, take a walk, and come back to it. Hair that’s been overworked can often be just the right texture to get the hold you need for really high ‘dos! I also offer 1:1 and small sized Wig Styling 101 classes if you’d like to learn hands-on🪮🎀
We’ll be celebrating our 15 Year Anniversary this Sunday and wigs will be 15% off! We’ll have myself and our in house stylist (who is thankfully doing most of our commissions these days) on hand to help you select the perf texture according to what type of style you want to achieve (selecting the right base wig is one of the first steps in creating your custom fantasy) 💖
Do you own a Coco Custom? We’d love to see! Post a pic and tag us, and we’ll repost to our stories! 😻

When we first opened, I didn’t have an advertising budget, and I was slow to discover Instagram, so I would sit around devising elaborate spectacles to create “brand recognition” after reading a borrowed copy of Word of Mouth Marketing for Dummies. For a long time, I was the only one talking about Coco and I was tired of hearing my own voice 🫠
One idea was to produce wig fashion/ dance/ glamsplosion shows where we brought costumers, dancers, and MUAs together for a themed showcase that would highlight our collective talents and tell a story. Each show got progressively more elaborate and profesh, until our last show “12 Ways to End the World” blew my bangs back so hard, I didn’t really know where to go from there. These spectacles were also intensely time-consuming to create, so I took it as a sign that that particular cycle had come to completion; aka, if the world was ending, so were our shows. Today, as I was scouring the internet for photos from this era, I realized I never posted these here! If I had written this show today, I would have included Greed and Fasc1sm, but in 2012, things were…less obvious.
12 Ways to End the World slides:
The Mayan Calendar**
The Storm
War
Fire
Alien Invasion
Religious Fervor
Locusts
The 4 Horses of the Apocalypse
Melting Icecaps
an Ice Age
Robots
or Maybe it was all just a Dream…
** in 2012, there was a lot of talk about the Mayan Calendar ending and how it signified the end of the world. This feels culturally insensitive to me now and I would have omitted this act today.
I’m doing my best to tag everyone, but this was a long time ago, so if I forgot someone, please let me know!

Our Story
By day, we’re a vintage inspired boutique for all that’s sparkled/ feathered/ teased and outrageous; by night, we host private wig parties where guests can relish in our favorite part of going out: getting glamorous!
But Coco Coquette is more than just fake hair, sparkly makeup and over-the-top accessories; it’s an opulent parlor that invites guests to step outside of their “comfort zone” and try on a different version of themselves in an environment that celebrates self- expression, in whatever form that might take. Wigs can be different things to different people, and the right wig can tease out a side of ourselves that has maybe been lying dormant, waiting for the right moment to show itself.
In addition to our famed wig parties, we also play host to different workshops and events that are inclusive and supportive of the community we serve. It is our mission to provide a safe and beautiful space where all are welcome to explore the different facets of themselves; for some that might be altering their ego, for others, it's about connecting with their authentic selves.
