Answers to common questions about retwists, detoxes, and loc maintenance.
Most clients book retwists every 4–6 weeks for tidy, tension-controlled styling; looser maintenance can extend to 6–8 weeks. We assess your locs and scalp to recommend an ideal schedule that balances neatness with breakage prevention and healthy hair growth.
We start with a clarifying cleanse to remove buildup, followed by a soothing scalp treatment and precise parting. Then we retwist with tension control, apply nourishing oils or creams, and finish with styling. The process restores scalp health and loc manageability.
Properly performed retwists using controlled tension protect loc strength; over-tightening or frequent aggressive manipulation can cause breakage and thinning. Our stylists use gentle techniques, assess your hair health, and advise appropriate retwist intervals to preserve integrity while keeping locs neat.
Yes — we recommend residue-free shampoos, lightweight natural oils (jojoba, coconut, grapeseed), and water-based moisturizers. Avoid heavy waxes and petroleum products that trap buildup. We’ll provide personalized product suggestions based on your loc density, porosity, and styling preferences.
Session time depends on loc length, thickness, and service depth. A detox with retwist typically takes 90 minutes to 3 hours. We’ll provide an accurate time estimate when you book so you can plan accordingly.
Our core services focus on retwists and detoxes, but we can consult on extensions or interlocking depending on stylist availability. Please contact us for a consultation so we can assess suitability, pricing, and required preparation.
