About

The business describes its hair work as bold and authentic, and says it aims to celebrate culture, confidence and individuality through its services. Its specialties are locs, twists, natural hair care and braids, and the menu also includes crochet styles and loc extensions.

Locs make up much of the menu. Starter locs with a Style=Lit finish takes about three hours and includes a scalp clarifying and conditioning treatment. Retwist and Style=Lit is listed at $125 and at $150, depending on the number of locs, with both versions including the same scalp treatment; the finished style can vary, including two-strand twists and barrels, and clients send a picture of the look they want. Loc extension maintenance ($170, about two hours ten minutes) covers cleansing, retwisting and repair of loose or damaged extensions, and can be a quick touch-up or a full session. Loc extensions are an $1,100 service taking eight to ten hours depending on hair thickness and density. They require a consultation before booking, are permanent, and are recommended to be removed once natural locs reach the desired length.

Braid and twist options include medium knotless box braids ($250, about five hours ten minutes), where clients supply their own hair; the listed hair is RUWA Outre X-Pression pre-stretched braid, 42 to 48 inches, 3X, four packs, or five for very thick hair, which carries an extra charge. Two-strand twists come in small ($150) and medium ($125, with an extension available for $20), and invisible twist ($175, about seven hours) suits shoulder length or shorter hair. Crochet choices include faux locs, a no leave-out full weave, island twist with an optional boho add-on, invisible locs, and soft faux locs. Cuban twist over locs ($225, about 3 hours 50 minutes) includes a retwist and styling, with boho curls available for $20 more.

Men's services include individual braids in large, medium and small sizes, 4-7 and 8-10 stitch braids, two-strand twists, retwist and Style=Lit, and starter locs. Every men's service includes a hydrating shampoo and conditioning.

The bridal beauty package ($600, about eight hours) reserves the stylist for one client for the full day and includes a shampoo and conditioning treatment, a retwist, Cuban twist over locs for extended length, and styling; help with photos, makeup, dressing and accessories can be included. It must be booked by phone at least one month ahead. Bookings take a $25 deposit sent through Cash App, which can be used to reschedule only once and is non-refundable. Appointments need at least 24 hours notice if a client cannot attend. Children and extra guests are not allowed unless they are being serviced right away. Hours vary by day, from Monday and Tuesday starting at noon to Friday and Saturday running until 11:45 PM; the phone number is (313) 753-5310.

Clients can send a picture of the style they want, and loc extensions begin with a consultation before booking.
