Sisterlocks, microlocs, traditional locs and braids by Yolande Braithwaite, a trained and certified loctician. A retie in this chair takes around 4 hours, not a full day.
Every service with its price, sitting time and deposit. No guessing, no back and forth in the DMs.
Retightening new growth using the interlocking method. Wash & retie option $350 (double shampoo included).
Fast, neat retightening. Wash & retie option from $350.
Classic locs maintenance. Wash & retie option from $240.
Classic two-strand twists, medium to large. Final cost by length and density.
Mid-back knotless braids, medium or large.
For breakage, unravelled or neglected locs: shampoo, removal of damaged locs, re-attachment and re-sectioning. Final quote at an in-person consult. $60/hr after the first 5 hours.
Three families of locs, three different looks and budgets. Read this first, then book a consult if you're still unsure.
Very fine, uniform locs installed on a precise grid. The most versatile for styling, the longest to install. Retie every 5–7 weeks.
Small locs, quicker to install than sisterlocks and lower maintenance, with a similar lightweight feel.
Thicker, classic locs. The simplest to maintain and the most affordable to start.
By the time you sit in the chair, I already know your hair, your history and the result you're after. No long back and forth in the DMs, no surprises on the day.

So there are never surprises on the day.
Between 2 and 4 hours depending on your hair. Many salons take 6 to 8 hours for the same work. Fast doesn't mean rushed: I do this all day, every day.
Every 5 to 7 weeks for reties. You'll get a reminder message from me at week 5.
Yes. Book the week that suits and message me once your roster is out, we'll lock the day in.
Sometimes, if a slot is free. Booking ahead is always safer, regulars book weeks in advance.
It depends on your hair density and the loc type, so installations and reconstructions are quoted after a consultation. Book one below.
