Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Detox (ACV Wash, Steam, Oil).

During the appointment we perform an ACV clarifying wash, steam to open follicles, and a tailored oil treatment. The process includes gentle scalp massage, thorough rinsing, and styling guidance. Typical sessions last 60–90 minutes depending on loc length and buildup level.

Yes, generally safe. ACV clarifies without harsh sulfates and steam enhances oil absorption, but we always assess color stability first. If your dye is fresh or fragile, we'll recommend timing or a milder approach to prevent fading or unwanted color shifts.

Frequency depends on lifestyle and buildup. Most clients benefit from a detox every 4–8 weeks. If you use heavy products, sweat frequently, or notice itching and residue, schedule more often. We'll recommend a personalized routine at your consultation.

Yes. ACV is effective at dissolving mineral and product residue without stripping natural oils when properly diluted. Combined with steam, it loosens trapped debris for easy removal, leaving locs cleaner and more receptive to oils and conditioning.

Yes — you’ll notice cleaner scalp, reduced itch, and softer locs right away. Some benefits continue to improve over several days as oils settle and pH balances. For lasting changes schedule regular maintenance and follow home care instructions.

Contraindications are rare but include open scalp wounds, severe irritation, or recent chemical treatments that leave hair compromised. Inform us about allergies, scalp conditions, or medications. We'll modify or postpone the service to protect your hair and scalp health.
