Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Starter Locs.
Appointments typically take 2–5 hours depending on hair density, parting size, chosen method (coils or twists), and any prep needed. We evaluate before you start and give a precise time estimate so you can plan accordingly.
Coils create a tighter, defined starter with more immediate texture, while twists produce softer, slightly larger bases. Choice depends on hair texture, desired mature look, and maintenance preference. Our stylists recommend the best technique for long-term health.
Wash hair 24–48 hours before your appointment using a clarifying shampoo, and avoid heavy conditioners or oils that weigh hair down. Hair should be clean, detangled, and dry unless otherwise instructed. Bring inspiration photos for reference.
Starter locs typically begin forming noticeable cohesion within 6–12 months, with fully matured locs often taking 12–24 months depending on hair texture, maintenance, and size. Consistent care and patience produce strong, well-formed mature locs.
Absolutely. We customize sectioning, parting patterns, and loc thickness to complement face shape, hairline, and density. During consultation, stylists assess proportions and recommend a balanced grid that enhances features while ensuring even growth.
Expect an initial retwist at 4–6 weeks, then maintenance every 6–12 weeks depending on growth and preferred neatness. Wash locs gently every 1–2 weeks, dry thoroughly, and use light moisturizers. We provide a personalized care plan at your appointment.
