Loc Styles — Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about our loc-specific styling services and aftercare.
Two-strand twists can last 4–8 weeks depending on hair growth, maintenance, and daily care. Using silk wraps at night, avoiding heavy products, and scheduling touch-ups extends longevity. We recommend a maintenance visit every 4–6 weeks to keep twists neat and prevent unraveling.
Yes. Our stylists adapt techniques for small, medium, and large locs to ensure secure, comfortable braids. We select braid size and tension suited to your loc thickness and scalp sensitivity, preserving health while achieving the desired look.
Four-strand twists create a fuller, more textured pattern than two-strand twists because they weave additional strands for complex interlacing. They offer increased volume and a distinct look, but take longer to install. Both protect hair; choice depends on desired density and visual style.
Arrive with clean, dry locs; avoid heavy oils or product buildup. Detangle loose hairs and note desired length or reference photos. For color or extensions, discuss during consultation. Clean hair ensures better parting and longer-lasting styles.
Gentle updos can be safe if done with minimal tension. For starter locs, avoid tight styles that stress roots. Our stylists recommend loose, protective updos and may wait until locs are more mature before complex, high-tension styles to prevent breakage.
Half-head temporary crochet installations typically take 1–2 hours depending on density and size. Consultation and prep add time. We customize length and thickness; arrive with clean hair for faster work. Exact timing varies by stylist and requested complexity.
