Appointments usually range from sixty minutes to three hours depending on damage extent, number of broken locs, and repair technique required. During a brief consultation we assess and provide a precise time estimate so you know what to expect.

When performed by experienced stylists using gentle techniques, loc repair minimizes additional harm. We prioritize preserving remaining hair, using secure reattachment and reinforcement methods. A careful assessment determines whether repair or replacement is safest for long-term health.

We recommend waiting 24 to 48 hours before washing to allow bonds to set; in some cases a gentle rinse after 24 hours is okay. We’ll give personalized aftercare instructions to protect repairs and ensure longevity.

Prices vary depending on repair complexity, number of locs, and stylist expertise. During consultation we assess damage and provide an itemized quote. Expect a fair rate that reflects quality materials, meticulous technique, and long-term results.

Often yes — when sufficient healthy hair remains at the root we can reattach and reinforce the original loc. If root damage is extensive we recommend partial reconstruction or replacement to protect overall hair health and achieve a natural result.

Aftercare includes avoiding tension or tight styles, using light oils or residue-free moisturizers, sleeping with a silk scarf or pillowcase, and keeping the scalp clean. Attend scheduled checkups so we can reinforce repairs and monitor healing for long-lasting results.
