Loc's of Love Sanctuary
Q & A's
Am I ready to start my locs?
-
Yes! If you have found yourself on my website that means you're ready! Be aware starting locs is an investment in yourself and your hair health.
What method do you use to start locs?
-
I start locs using the Sisterlock method or the microlock method.
How long does it take to start my locs?
-
It depends on how long your hair is and how thick. I would suggest coming in for a consultation, so that I can go over all of the details with you.
Do you offer any other locs outside of Sisterlocks and Microlocs?
-
Not at this time!
How often should I get my hair retightened?
-
Every 4-6 weeks is highly recommended
How long will it take my hair to loc?
-
It depends on your hair texture, type and how well you take care of them.
W hat are your prices?
-
All pricing is listed here on the site under "Our Services" menu. Please be sure to review details and pricing for full understanding!
What products do you use?
-
I only recommend using the Sisterlock products for new establishments. For microlocs I would recommend a similar shampoo. I don't recommend using any oils, conditioners, gels or any product that will hinder the locking process. I will go into more details during the consultation.
Do I have to bring my own products?
-
Only bring your own products to the initial consultation. If you decide to move forward with the process, you will not need them. I have everything I need to start your locs. If you use a medicated shampoo or conditioner, please feel free to bring it.
My locs are thinning, should I stop getting my locs retwisted?
-
No! Locs are weighted strands of hair knotted together. Your new growth has to be retwisted consistently in order for them to not get thin. Waiting long periods of time ( Anything past 6 weeks) is very damaging to your loc health. Normally if your locs are thin it's because too much time has passed in between loc grooms.
Can I bring friends or family with me while my service is being done?
-
Yes! Be mindful of others around you in the space but feel free to bring a friend or your child if needed!
