There goes the Mecca of Hair
Workers have gutted the former Lugo Hair Center at 209 First Ave. between East 12th Street and East 13th Street…
Not sure exactly when they closed (with that cinderblock storefront, they never looked all that open).
But the place had fans. The Village Voice named them "Best Place to Get Hair Extensions" in 2013, noting: "The East Village's Lugo's Hair Center, which specializes in extensions and wigs, provides beautiful … manes made specifically for you. The process is long and taxing, but well worth it (they don't call themselves the 'mecca of hair' for nothing)."
The business, which apparently opened in 1976, still has a Brooklyn outpost.
