STARTER LOCS

Starter loc consultation

The first step in the process would be to book a starter loc consultation. At the consultation we will discuss any hair issues or concerns you may have, answer any questions you may have about locs, and go over the care of your locs. At the conclusion of your consultation we will schedule your Starter Loc appointment along with your first two (2) Wash & Re-twist appointments; giving you your first 3 months booked in advance.  

Starter loc appointment

For your appointment Bee will wash and condition your hair as well as detangle, even if you have recently done it yourself. You are more than welcome to wash and detangle your hair before the appointment, however, we ask that you do not blow dry your hair straight. Your ends will be trimmed within reason and scalp oiled before leaving. If you wish to have color we ask that you color your hair before your starter loc appointment or wait until your hair has budded (approx. 3-5 months).

Prices: Adult Full Head - $125; Adult Crown - $100; Kids (ages 3-12) - $115

Wash & Re-twist

Your following two (2) Wash & Re-twist appointments will be set one (1) month apart. Your appointments after that should be set by you through StyleSeat only. The suggested maintenance schedule is once a month to maintain manicured locs, once every 1.5 months for semi-free forming locs, and once every 2 months for free forming locs. If you go more than three (3) months without communicating that you are doing self care we request that a New Client Consultation is booked in order to follow up.

after care

An oil and wash routine is ideal for strong healthy locs. We also suggest that you use a durag instead of a bonnet for your starter phase.
