Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Starter Loc.
Installation typically takes 2 to 6 hours depending on hair length, density, chosen loc size, and sectioning complexity. Your consultation clarifies timing, and arrival with clean, detangled hair helps speed the process for a smoother appointment.
When installed correctly by trained stylists, starter locs should not permanently damage hair or follicles. Proper sectioning and gentle tension minimize breakage. Follow aftercare guidance and schedule retwists appropriately to maintain scalp health and encourage strong loc maturation.
Come with clean, product-free hair when possible. We include a clarifying shampoo, but avoiding heavy oils, conditioners, or recent chemical treatments helps the process. Bring hairstyle references and expect a brief consultation to confirm size and parting pattern.
Initial aftercare includes keeping the scalp clean, avoiding heavy oils, and sleeping with a silk or satin scarf to reduce friction. Wash gently with residue-free shampoo, allow locs to dry completely, and schedule retwists as recommended to maintain neat sections.
Retwist frequency varies with hair growth and desired neatness, commonly every 4 to 8 weeks. Longer intervals help avoid excessive tension. During early maturation, your stylist will recommend an ideal schedule based on your hair type and lifestyle needs.
We recommend waiting until starter locs have begun to mature — usually several months — before adding heavy extensions or chemical color. Early additions can stress roots. Discuss goals during consultation so we plan safe timing and methods.
