Peaceful Locs

Peaceful Locs is a loc care business in Detroit, operating as Peaceful Locs LLC. Clients are seen at the loctician's chair in the space, and the work centers on starter locs, loc maintenance, retwists, retied locs and loc styling. The business describes its work as going beyond haircuts and says it is culturally important to its owner.

Haircuts and line ups are offered through Jewel'd Cutz, located inside the business. Loc maintenance, loc styling and twists are offered alongside.

New clients book a consultation first, on a different day from their service. The consultation includes a wet test on the back and top sections to determine curl pattern, and covers parting, starter loc methods and long-term care. The loctician sets service appointments at that visit. Clients should arrive with clean, loose hair, and drinks and snacks are provided at loc maintenance and twist services. Reminders come by text or email, and a $35 fee applies to cancellations within 24 hours or no-shows.

The business does not offer loc extensions, faux locs, sister locs, microlocs, soft locs or diamond parts, and it does not serve children under 15. Virtual loc care coaching over Zoom is offered from $105 to people on their loc journey, people caring for their own locs, and people outside Detroit.

Care is loc-specific: locs are shampooed in the sink and rinsed thoroughly, conditioning is not done at every wash, and locs are not left more than three weeks without shampooing.

The salon describes its atmosphere as lively.
