Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Locs - Micro.

Installation time varies by hair density, length, and desired sizing. Typically expect 6 to 10 hours for a full head of micro locs. We schedule accordingly and provide consultations to give a personalized time estimate before booking.

When installed correctly, micro locs are gentle on hair. Proper sectioning, tension control, and professional technique minimize breakage. Regular moisturizing and scheduled maintenance help preserve strength; we assess hair health to recommend the best approach for long-term integrity.

Maintain micro locs with gentle cleansing, light moisturizing, and avoiding heavy products. Retwists every 4-8 weeks prevent unraveling; use a professional or a taught at-home method for best results. Sleep with a satin scarf to reduce friction and frizz.

Micro locs work well on many textures; tighter curls and coarse hair lock faster, while looser textures may need more time and maintenance. We evaluate hair density and length during consultation to determine suitability and recommend prep steps.

Maturation varies widely; expect 6 to 18 months for micro locs to fully tighten and consolidate, depending on texture, care, and maintenance. Regular retwists and gentle handling speed the process and encourage neat, uniform locking.

Pricing depends on hair length, thickness, and stylist experience. Expect installation pricing from moderate to premium ranges and several hours of chair time. We provide an accurate quote after consultation and offer maintenance packages to manage long-term care costs.
