How a full wash, root retwist and finished loc style is performed and what shapes the result.

What the service includes

A Wash, Retwist & Style begins with a full wash followed by a root retwist and finishes with the selected loc style such as two-strand twists, barrels, updos, flat twists or plaits. The focus is on securing the roots and presenting a polished finished look chosen at booking.

Appointments are scheduled to allow the root work and chosen finish to be completed in one visit; the listed duration for this service is 150 MINUTES. Exact timing can vary depending on loc size, count and the complexity of the chosen style.

Pricing and length tiers

Pricing is tiered by hair length: shoulder or shorter $175; past shoulders to mid-back $215; waist $265; longer than waist $295. The service is listed as starting at $175, and those ranges reflect the base cost for typical loc counts and lengths.

Because loc size, count and hair condition change the amount of time and technique needed, we require photos before booking to confirm loc details and provide a final quote. Use photos to avoid surprises and to ensure your appointment is scheduled for the correct time block.
