Privacy Parlor

Privacy Parlor operates from a home base in East Orange, New Jersey, and focuses on loc services. Its stated aim is quality loc care in an intimate yet professional setting. Visits are appointment-only, and availability, reviews and service prices are listed on its Vagaro booking page.

Insta locs are hand-crafted from the client's own natural hair with a small crochet needle. The work typically takes about six to ten hours, depending on length and thickness, and the business describes them as skipping the seven-to-ten-month early growth phase. Loc extensions are pre-formed locs attached permanently without thread or glue; the appointment can take up to six to ten hours, and the client's own locs are not included. Loc repair reattaches broken lengths of existing locs without glue or thread.

A team of stylists handles starting, finishing, lengthening, caring for, styling and adorning locs. Testimonials on the site describe appointments as relaxing and service quality as consistent. The business says its loc styling and care was mentioned in Allure Magazine, which lists Insta locs, loc extensions and loc repair as its specialties.

The business says it is working toward making its hair care products available for purchase. For now, an Amazon storefront shows the products it favors.

Aims for quality loc care in an intimate, professional setting, with a team covering each stage from starting locs to styling and adornment.
