Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Retwist (Micro Locs, 2-3 Inches Growth).

Appointments typically take 60–90 minutes depending on density and hair length. We assess each head, retwist roots carefully, and finish with light scalp treatment and styling to ensure neat, comfortable micro locs.

A delayed retwist can cause loose roots and frizz but won't automatically damage healthy locs. Our service restores tension gently while minimizing stress; we recommend regular maintenance every 4–8 weeks to prevent breakage and maintain shape.

Arrive with clean, dry hair unless instructed otherwise. Avoid heavy oils or creams before your appointment and bring reference photos if you want a specific parting or style. Communicate any scalp sensitivities to your technician.

Results typically last until new growth shows and natural loosening occurs, usually four to eight weeks. Since you have two months without retwist, you'll see refreshed roots and improved neatness, but maintenance frequency varies by hair texture and lifestyle.

We advise waiting 24–48 hours before washing to allow retwisted roots to settle. Use sulfate-free shampoos and dilute products; avoid vigorous scrubbing. Follow our aftercare tips for gentle cleansing and prolonging your retwist results.

Yes. We use light, residue-free products formulated for locs to tighten roots and soothe the scalp. Products are applied sparingly to avoid buildup; we can recommend at-home options tailored to your hair porosity and routine.
