About

The main studio is at 6110 W Capitol Dr. in Milwaukee, and the booking page also lists a second location at 5707 W North Avenue. Services cover most stages of loc life, from starting new locs and kids' locs through regular retwists, color, crochet and wick work, and repairs.

Prices are set by loc length, from ear length up to longer than the tail bone, so clients can see what a visit will cost before booking. Clients are asked to pick the correct length when they book. Locs longer than the tail bone are quoted after a consultation, and loc repair is priced after an in-person consultation as well.

New clients pay a $25 deposit to book, sent through Cash App. Clients get a 10-minute grace period; after that a $25 late fee applies, and that fee does not count toward the service. Appointments not kept after 30 minutes must be rescheduled, and a no-call no-show needs full payment before the next booking. Same-day appointments, when offered, carry a $45 upcharge, and holiday appointments, when offered, carry a $25 to $50 upcharge. Last-minute changes are not accepted because they overlap other clients' appointments.

The business also teaches loc care. Level 1 covers identifying hair textures and loc conditions, basic washing, conditioning and retwisting, product use, drying and a basic style. Level 2 covers loc detox, crochet, repairs, product use and wicks. Level 1 is priced at $200 and Level 2 at $300.

Alongside services, the business sells its own products: a locking wax, an organic grow oil, a bundle of the two, and a satin loc cap for protecting locs from lint, dust and breakage.

Services are organized around loc length, and clients are asked to choose the correct length when booking.
