About

The Loc God Salon was founded by Nia, who began by gaining clients through social media. She later built an ecommerce business selling loc hair care products, and says the products she created were the first of their kind at the time.

The salon welcomes clients of all backgrounds and hair types and states that it does not tolerate discrimination. Its stated aim is for every client to leave feeling empowered and beautiful. The salon describes itself as offering the best experience for the loc community, reports a 4.5 rating from over 1,000 reviews, and says it has served more than 15,000 clients, including VIP celebrity clients. These are the salon's own claims.

A visit usually starts with a consultation, which assesses hair condition and type, gives product and maintenance recommendations, and sets out a tailored plan with time for questions. Consultations are $25, in person or virtual. Premium consultations are $50 and cover complex work such as loc extensions, reattachment and instant locs, with a custom price given afterward. Appointments are recommended, and walk-ins are welcome when space allows, with booked clients seen first. The card on file is charged before the appointment, and receipts are emailed.

Retwists include a complimentary wash, and clients sit under a dryer afterward because hair must be fully dry before styling. Rubber bands, beads and metal accessories are included at no charge for styling. Extreme matting carries an upcharge and may require a consultation first. The VIP Experience includes a private room and lounge. Complimentary drinks are offered to clients 21 and over.

The salon works on loc hair with its own retwisting method, combining palm rolling, careful parting and lock smithing of the shaft, with its own gel and jelly applied after misting and oiling.

The interior features luxury high-end finishes and furnishings.
