About

Lockstar Lifestyle describes itself as a lifestyle brand rather than only a salon. Alongside salon services for locks and loose hair, it makes and sells handmade hair and body products, sells accessories such as candles, incense, hats and tees, and publishes a blog. The business states it has more than 10 years of experience and describes its salon services as award-winning, a claim the salon makes about itself.

Services cover starting and maintaining locks, grooming, styling, coloring, cutting, repairing, blow outs, twists and extension services for all hair textures. The salon specializes in natural textures and does not chemically straighten hair. Its approach to hair and scalp concerns is natural, and it says continuing education is a priority for its team.

The handmade products are made by hand in micro-batches at the company's facility in Charlotte. According to the salon, some products used on hair are organic, most are natural and all are hand-picked. Color services use products that are not fully natural; they contain organic properties intended to soften the chemical in color. The salon retails the products it uses on clients' hair.

Lock extensions are made from human hair and can be installed in the salon or elsewhere. Each set starts with a $30 consultation, which is applied to the service fee. During the consultation, the client and stylist choose the size and length of the locks, discuss fullness, and agree on an approximate install time and price. Installs take about 6 to 8 hours and require a $200 deposit, which is fully refundable with 48 hours' notice. The same human hair extensions are sold to clients. The salon says its lock extension sets are guaranteed to last for years.

Lockstar Education has trained stylists for 15 years. It offers in-person and virtual classes on natural hair and locks for stylists and hobbyists, including a six-class All About Locks series, an All About Loose Natural Hair series and an All About Color series. Classes combine theory with hands-on practice.

Takes a natural approach to hair and scalp concerns, specializes in natural textures without chemical straightening, and treats continuing education as a priority.
