Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Loc Repair (fill in, single combine, ect. Per loc).

Duration varies by repair type and loc condition. Simple fills or single combines often take 15–45 minutes per loc; extensive rebuilding or multiple combines require longer sessions. Your loctician will provide a time estimate after assessing your locs during consultation.

Pricing depends on repair complexity, loc size, and the number of locs needing attention. We price per loc and provide transparent estimates after reviewing photos or during an in-person consultation so you know the exact cost before service.

When performed by trained locticians, repairs are protective rather than damaging. We use gentle techniques and products that reinforce weak areas, minimizing stress and preserving hair integrity while restoring strength and appearance.

Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, light moisturizing, and avoiding tight styles or excessive manipulation for several weeks. Sleep with a satin bonnet, follow our maintenance schedule, and use recommended products to protect and prolong the repair results.

Yes — single combines are a common repair option to strengthen thin or damaged locs. We evaluate texture, parting, and tension first, explain how the combine will affect your style, and recommend follow-up care to maintain balance.

It depends on appointment length and each repair's complexity. We schedule based on estimated time: a short visit may cover a few locs, while a full session can handle many repairs. Contact us to book the appropriate appointment length.
