What the service includes
Loc Take Down at Salon Daba is a timed service for safe removal of locs and is charged by the hour. The listed appointment duration is 105 MINUTES; within that time our team focuses on careful strand-by-strand takedown, followed by a cleansing shampoo and a blow-dry to refresh hair and scalp.
Actual time required can vary with loc thickness, hair density, buildup, and how long it’s been since last maintenance. Because takedown is billed hourly, we discuss an initial estimate when you book and adjust as work proceeds, so you understand how the 105 MINUTES appointment fits into any additional time that may be needed.
How we protect hair
Our approach emphasizes gentle handling to preserve your natural hair during detangling. Technicians work carefully to reduce breakage and to keep intact as much length and strength as possible, then follow with conditioning and a cleansing step that customers report leaves hair feeling lighter and healthier.
We do not promise medical or restorative results, but we aim to prepare hair for whatever comes next — a refresh, new style, or treatment. Many clients appreciate the follow-up wash and blow-dry that transitions combed-out hair into a manageable base for styling or further professional care.
Booking and local logistics
Salon Daba is located in central Hollywood along the La Brea corridor, convenient for clients using Hollywood/Highland Metro and nearby bus routes. Evening and weekend appointments accommodate entertainment and hospitality professionals; we also schedule pre-show and event takedowns for guests heading to the Hollywood Bowl or nearby theaters and observatories.
The service area includes West Hollywood, Koreatown, Mid-City, Los Feliz, Silver Lake, and Beverly Hills, making short commutes typical for many clients. Note seasonality: our busiest months are January, May, and September when people often choose transitions and fresh-start styles, so plan ahead if you need the 105 MINUTES slot during those months.
