Most clients enjoy 4–8 weeks of tidy, secure roots depending on hair growth, texture, and care routines. Active lifestyles or faster growth may need touch-ups sooner; your stylist will suggest a personalized maintenance interval.

Yes. When performed by a trained loctician, the technique gently secures roots without excessive tension. It's excellent for early-stage locs to establish firm anchors; communicate scalp sensitivity so your stylist can adjust tension accordingly.

When done properly, no. Our stylists control tension and use gentle technique to minimize strain. Regular moisturizing and protective care reduce risk; if hair is fragile we recommend strengthening treatments before service.

Appointment length varies by loc size, density, and whether you're maintaining or starting new locs. Expect 1.5–4 hours for maintenance; new installations can take longer. Your stylist will provide an estimated time when booking.

Keep scalp clean and moisturized, avoid heavy products that cause buildup, and sleep with a satin scarf. Wash gently after 2–7 days as advised, and schedule regular maintenance to preserve neat roots and long-term loc health.

Yes—coloring and styling are possible, but wait at least two weeks for fresh work to settle. Consulting your loctician ensures safe coloring techniques and minimizes stress. Heat styling should be limited to prevent weakening loc integrity.
