Shosh Loc Studio is a loc salon in Mount Vernon, New York, and its header describes it as a professional studio for locs. The studio says it has more than 15 years of experience and that it is licensed as a New York State salon. Its main work is loc maintenance and care, with starter loc services and loc styling alongside it.
A maintenance visit starts with a three-shampoo wash. Clients can finish with a hydrating conditioner or an essential oil rinse, and the shampoo area is scented with essential oil and herb aromas. Locs are then twisted, with castor oil used for the twisting, and the client sits under a dryer. An organic apple cider vinegar rinse is available as an add-on.
Maintenance pricing depends on head size. Average-sized heads with 70 locs or less are priced at $155, and fuller heads, including anything past neck length, start at $175. The studio notes that fuller-head pricing for 95 or more locs, or mid-back length, starts at $195, and that the range runs from $175 to $300 depending on loc count, new growth and length. Styles, curls and other add-ons are priced separately because they are not part of the maintenance price.
Color services range from demi-permanent rinses and root touch-ups to full single and double process color, highlights for up to 25 locs and corrective color. Loc repair is priced per loc at $10 after a required consultation. Full service pricing and availability are listed in the online booking system. Clients can pay by major credit or debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Cash App Pay.
The studio is open Sunday from 7:00AM to 3PM, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 9:00AM to 6PM, and closed Tuesday and Saturday. The contact page notes that hours may vary. Clients are offered complimentary snacks and water, and the studio plays Neo Soul music.
The studio says it works from each client's scalp needs, choosing products to suit them, and focuses its services on loc care.
The studio describes itself as clean, positive and professional, with Neo Soul playing and essential oil and herb scents in the shampoo area.
