FAQs
Have questions? We've got answers.
Knotless braids start with your natural hair and gradually add extensions, resulting in a lighter, more comfortable braid with less tension on the scalp compared to traditional box braids.
Goddess and boho braids typically last 4 to 6 weeks with proper maintenance. These styles combine braids with loose, curly strands for a soft, romantic look.
Stitch cornrows use a detailed braiding method that creates clean, defined lines and often look more sculpted, while regular cornrows have a more classic, continuous braid appearance.
Yes, a consultation is required before booking loc extensions. This allows the stylist to assess your hair type, discuss goals, and recommend the right method and maintenance plan.
A loc detox deeply cleanses your locs by removing buildup, product residue, and impurities. It improves scalp health, refreshes your hair, and prevents long-term damage.
You can choose the instant loc method for mature-looking locs in a single session using crochet or backcombing. Alternatively, starter locs begin the natural locking process over time.
Loc maintenance includes regular retwisting, scalp care, and occasional detox treatments. We offer tailored services to keep your locs neat, strong, and healthy.
Passion twists use soft, curly extensions for a flowing look, while spring twist versions have more texture and bounce, giving the style a fuller, more defined finish.
Crochet braids are installed by looping extensions through cornrows with a latch hook. They’re low-tension and easy to manage, making them ideal for protective styling.
Our wash and treatment services cleanse the scalp, restore moisture, and nourish your strands—essential before or after braiding or loc services to support healthy hair.
Yes, we provide gentle takedown services for braids, cornrows, and locs. These are done with care to preserve your natural hair and prepare it for its next style.
Men can opt for box braids, two-strand twists, or cornrows. These styles are protective, stylish, and low-maintenance—perfect for expressing personality while promoting growth.
