Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Stater Loc Consultation.

You’ll receive a hair and scalp analysis, discuss goals, choose starter method, and get a tailored care plan. The stylist will explain timelines, costs, and at-home routines so you leave confident and prepared for your loc journey.

Consultations typically last 30-60 minutes depending on hair length and questions. Longer sessions may be needed for complex histories, in-depth styling planning, or if multiple method demonstrations are requested as necessary.

Yes — we evaluate your texture, density, porosity, and lifestyle to recommend the most suitable starter technique (two-strand twists, comb coils, interlocking, or braids) and ideal loc size for long-term health and styling versatility.

Bringing photos and hair history is helpful but not required. Visuals clarify your preferred look, while history of chemical treatments, thinning, or scalp issues helps us customize a safe, realistic plan.

Absolutely. We outline a complete maintenance routine, recommend salon-tested products suited to your hair, and demonstrate application techniques to minimize buildup, frizz, and breakage for healthy loc maturation and ongoing troubleshooting.

Not always required, but strongly recommended. The consultation ensures both client and stylist agree on method, size, and expectations, reducing surprises and improving long-term results if you proceed to installation.
