starter Locs

Believe it or not starting your locs is not always pretty. This phase can take anywhere between 3 to 9 months depending on your hair texture and natural rate of growth. Many begin with comb coils, but you can also choose to start your locs with braids, two strand twists or interlocking this is something we will discuss during your consultation. This stage may be one of the most challenging stages, but with patience you will get through it!

re-Twist | Interlock

At the point that your locs have completely matured you will continue your re-twist or interlocking to ensure your locs grow at an even and consistent rate. 

loc Extensions

Permanent Loc extensions is a type of permanent extension process that transforms your loose natural hair into beautiful natural looking locs or extends the length of your current Locs. You can start locs with as little as 2 inches of natural hair depending on your hair texture and type. Each Loc is created by me by hand using 100% human kinky hair without the use of glue or adhesives. Permanent Locs are designed to last for years allowing your natural hair to grow with the loc extension. Locs can be pre-colored or left in it's natural state (usually a Natural Black or Brown). Consultation is Required

loc Color + Styling

Coloring locs is unique in itself. It takes twice as much color to saturate locs than the average head. This process can be longer than an average color service but the results will be well worth it. All color services requires an In-Person Consultation!
