Starter Locs Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about starting, maintaining, and caring for your new locs.
Initial starter sessions typically take two to six hours depending on hair length, density, and chosen method. Micro locs and interlocks take longer than simple wicks. We schedule consultations to estimate precise timing and ensure comfortable appointments.
Choice depends on hair texture, lifestyle, desired size, and maintenance willingness. Micro interlock offers neat, long-lasting locs; traditional palm-rolling suits coarser textures; wicks and larger parts create a different aesthetic. Book a micro loc consultation to determine your ideal approach.
Keep scalp clean and moisturized, avoid heavy products that cause buildup, and sleep with a satin scarf. Follow our aftercare plan: gentle cleansing, light moisturizing, and minimal manipulation to encourage natural locking and reduce frizz during the first six to twelve months.
Yes, in many cases we can add extensions for length or volume, but method and timing matter. Extensions may affect locking and maintenance. We recommend a consultation to choose appropriate attachment methods and plan for long-term care to preserve natural hair health.
Maintenance frequency varies by technique and hair growth but generally every four to eight weeks for retightening or interlock sessions. Micro locs may require more frequent visits initially. We'll tailor a schedule during your consultation to suit your needs.
When installed correctly by trained stylists using gentle tension and proper parting, starter locs should not cause permanent damage. Over-manipulation, excessive tension, or improper products can harm hair. Our consultations focus on safe techniques and protective aftercare to safeguard hair health.
