About

The Takedown Salon describes itself as a braid, loc, and extension takedown studio in Houston. Takedown work is at the center of the menu, covering braids, sew-ins, crochet installs, locs and matted hair, with the goal of keeping the client's natural hair in good condition.

Takedown visits are built around gentle removal, detangling and scalp comfort. Loc removal is priced per day and confirmed at the appointment based on hair condition, and a $50 loc consultation fee goes toward the removal. Some matting cannot be saved without minimal cutting, so the salon always asks for client approval first, and same-day completion is not guaranteed for matted hair.

Outside of takedowns, the menu includes color work such as corrective sessions, blonding, highlights and glazes; loc services such as retwists, loc color and starter locs; natural hair styles like twists, coils and silk press; keratin-type smoothing treatments; and a range of head spa options. Complimentary champagne is offered during the luxe treatment and luxe silk press services.

For severely matted hair, a private Super Matted Detangling Experience is held in a quiet, sensory-considerate setting. A virtual or in-person consultation is required before booking it.

Takedowns focus on gentle removal, detangling, scalp comfort and preserving natural hair. The salon states its process is designed to prevent breakage and minimize shedding.

The salon describes its takedown experience as calm and elevated, and offers a quiet, low-stimulation setting for the private detangling service.
