Common Questions About Our Locs Services
Answers to popular questions about starts, retwists, interlocks, crochet and maintenance.
Most clients benefit from retwists every 4–8 weeks depending on hair growth, texture and style. Over-retwisting can cause thinning, so we recommend a personalized schedule after scalp analysis and consultation.
Interlocking uses a tool to tighten locs by pulling the base through itself, while crochet maintenance uses a small hook to pull stray hairs into the loc. We recommend the method based on hair type, tension tolerance and desired finish.
Yes — we start locs on most textures and lengths using appropriate methods. Microlocs suit finer hair, while comb coils or starter locs work well on thicker textures. A consultation will confirm the best approach.
Starter loc times vary by technique and density: expect 2–6 hours. Microloc installations and dense partings usually take longer. We provide time estimates at booking based on your chosen method and hair volume.
We offer same-day or expedited services when availability allows, especially for simpler installs or touch-ups. Complex installs and extensions may require advance booking to ensure materials and stylist time.
Maintain loc health with gentle cleansing, our royal loc wash, light moisturizing, satin protection at night and avoiding heavy buildup. Follow your retwist schedule and visit us for professional maintenance when recommended.
