What we do, and how long it takes

A call before anything is booked. We talk through your hair, the method and the size of your locs, and what the weeks after look like.

Coils shaped at the root with a fine comb, section by section, on hair of a length that holds a coil. A good fit for shorter and medium lengths.

Twists set in your own hair, sized and parted to the pattern we agreed. The twists settle into locs over the months that follow.

Each loc started and held at the root with an interlocking pattern, for hair that needs more hold from the first day. Long visit, planned in two parts if you prefer.

A wash, then each loc retwisted at the root with a fine comb and a light hold, as often as your locs ask. Comes with a conversation about when to come back.

A retwist, then a style to leave in: barrel twists, pinned loops, a low updo or a braided pattern.

Locs held with an interlocking pattern are re-interlocked at the root. Allow longer for more locs or longer new growth.

A shorter visit between full retwists: the front, the nape and any loc that needs attention, with a wash if you'd like one.

A slow shampoo, a scalp massage and a rinse, with your locs dried your way. Add it to any visit or book it on its own.

Loose ends trimmed and the length evened out, with the outline shaped to suit you.

Extension locs attached to your own, one at a time, in the color and length we choose together. We plan the number of locs on the consultation call.

A style for an event or a week: updos, braided crowns, barrel twists, loops and pinned shapes. Bring a photo if you have one.

Locs taken down, section by section, with the hair washed and detangled at the end. Long and slow, and booked after a conversation.
