Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Micro Retwist w/Basic Style.

We recommend scheduling every 4 to 6 weeks depending on your hair growth rate and desired neatness. Tighter curl patterns may need more frequent touch-ups; looser textures can often go longer. Your stylist will recommend a schedule tailored to your locs.

This service includes a professional shampoo and deep conditioning, a careful micro retwist of new growth, and a finishing barrel twist for the basic style. It refreshes roots, improves manageability, and delivers a polished, ready-to-go look.

Yes — we use professional, sulfate-free shampoos and nourishing conditioners suited to locs and natural textures. Products are chosen to avoid residue and dryness; we can accommodate sensitivities or recommend alternatives for allergies, color-treated hair, or specific scalp concerns.

Appointments generally take 60 to 90 minutes depending on loc size, density, and amount of new growth. Smaller, thinner locs or minimal new growth are faster; thicker, denser sets can require more time. Your stylist will confirm expected duration at booking.

Barrel twisting is a styling technique that wraps locs without truncating length. It may create the appearance of slightly shorter length while in the style, but it does not cut or permanently shorten locs. Length returns when the style is released.

Yes. We offer upgrades and add-on styling like intricate twists, updos, or accessories for an additional fee. Discuss desired looks during booking so we can allocate time and recommend the best options that preserve loc health and the longevity of your retwist.
