About

The Loc Doula describes itself as a women-centered space, and its work centers on locs. Services include faux locs, MicroLoc installs on natural hair, MicroLoc extensions with hair included, and ongoing MicroLoc maintenance.

Every new client starts with a 30-minute virtual MicroLoc consultation over Zoom, priced at $60. The consultation is required before a first install. If the install is booked within 24 to 48 hours of the consultation, the fee is credited toward it. Potential clients are asked to read the MicroLoc Prep Guide before booking. A non-refundable booking fee applies to appointments.

MicroLoc install on natural hair starts at $1,500. The MicroLoc Extensions install, with hair included, starts at $2,800. Services are currently offered to women clients only.

The studio has a yellow room that is meant to feel relaxed, safe and joyful. Beyond the chair work, the business offers wellness coaching built on the eight dimensions of wellness. It also publishes Loc Resources, including downloadable guides on micro locs and on loc services and maintenance.

The business blends loc care with a wellness focus, aiming to help clients thrive and find harmony in their lives. Each client's experience is shaped to their own goals.
