Dreadlock services are offered for all loc types regardless of texture, density or problem areas, from palm rolling and twists to reattaching. Permanent loc extensions attach human dreadlocks to natural hair and require a consultation before booking.
Other services include color mixing from natural tones to pastel shades, where colors lighter than natural are lifted and darker shades are permanent deposits, and a silk press done with a flat iron rather than a hot comb. Wig installation includes braiding down, cap melting and either glue or glueless application, and sleek ponytails use human weft hair attached by sewing or adhesive bonding.
Booking opens on the 1st of each month for the following month and stays open until full. Appointments must be made online through the website or the Instagram booking button, since booking by text carries a convenience fee. All services are chosen at booking. Before- or after-hours appointments carry a $50 fee and appointments on an off day carry a $100 fee, both paid through Cash App. House calls are available with a travel fee of at least $100 added to the booking.
The salon sells loc oil, moisture and styling products, drawstring ponytails and buns, and an online business course with mentorship. Online reviews show a 4.5 rating from 22 reviews.
The salon treats dreadlock work as its core focus and pairs hands-on services with ongoing education for its team and tutorials for clients between visits.
