Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Instant Locs (2.75 Hours).

Our Instant Locs service is scheduled for a 2.75-hour session. Most clients finish within that time depending on hair density and desired loc size. We focus on quality and clean parting while respecting the appointment length for timely completion.

Hair length influences final loc appearance: very short hair may produce shorter starter locs while longer hair yields more drape. During your appointment we tailor technique and size to your length, achieving a balanced, natural look within the 2.75-hour timeframe.

Arrive with clean, dry hair free of heavy oils or product build-up. Detangle gently and avoid fresh chemical treatments before your service. A wash the night before is ideal; stylist consultation will confirm readiness and any recommended prep steps.

Wait 48–72 hours before washing to allow the locs to set properly. Use a gentle, residue-free shampoo and dilute if necessary. We'll walk you through aftercare and recommend products to maintain neatness and prevent unraveling in the early stages.

Yes — we offer customizable thickness and texture options. During consultation we discuss small, medium, or large sizes to match your style, hair density, and maintenance preferences. Size decisions affect time and volume but are accommodated within the 2.75-hour service whenever possible.

Maintain your instant locs with gentle washing every one to two weeks, light moisturizing, and monthly palm-rolling or retwisting as needed. Schedule follow-up visits for tension checks. We'll provide a tailored care plan and product recommendations for long-lasting, healthy locs.
