Common Questions About Instant Locs
Answers to popular questions about pricing, timing, care, and preparation for instant locs.
Hourly pricing reflects stylist experience, hair length, and density. We offer a standard hourly rate and a $150/hour option or flat two-person pricing. Final cost is confirmed after consultation and depends on chosen duration and any added materials or extensions.
The two-person flat rate covers two stylists working simultaneously to speed installation or maintenance. It reduces total appointment time, improves consistency for dense hair, and typically includes parting, installation, shaping, and finishing for a set flat fee.
Book based on hair density and desired result: options range from 1.25 to 3+ hours. Shorter slots suit touch-ups or small sections; longer sessions required for full installs or thick hair. We recommend a consultation to pick the right slot.
Aftercare includes gentle cleansing with residue-free products, regular palm-rolling if recommended, satin protection at night, and avoiding heavy styling for several weeks. Follow our stylist's timeline for retouches to keep locs neat and healthy over time.
Yes — extensions can be added but will affect time and price. Larger installs often benefit from the two-person option. Bring examples and plan a consultation so we can determine the right extension type and required appointment length.
A deposit is required to secure many loc appointments, especially longer or two-stylist bookings. Deposits typically apply to the service total and may be non-refundable with late cancellations. Specific terms are provided at booking.
