What the repair covers
A Loc Repair for one to five locs begins with an assessment to identify the problem areas and an estimate. Starting price is for standard length and density. Price starts at $75 and a typical appointment is 45 MINUTES. Final price is confirmed before your appointment after a photo consultation.
The repair visit focuses on stabilizing, reconstructing, or tidying the specific locs you bring in. The final look and durability depend on the underlying condition—small locs, heavy buildup, or very long sections require more work and can change the scope and cost.
How the appointment proceeds
Before booking we request photos so the loctician can confirm scope and price. Once you approve, the scheduled session is reserved for focused work on the identified locs. With standard conditions the appointment runs 45 MINUTES, and the stylist selects the appropriate repair approach at the chair.
If additional styling or deeper cleaning is needed the service may take longer or move to a different service category. Studio 818’s Sherman Oaks location on the Ventura Boulevard corridor is convenient for commuters and supports quick, scheduled repairs that fit after-work or mid-morning windows.
Decisions that affect price
Several factors change the amount of work required: extra length, high density, very small locs that need delicate attention, a high total loc count near the repair area, product buildup, and whether added styling is requested. Each of these increases time and materials needed, so they can raise the final price.
If photos or the in-chair assessment show the issue can’t be resolved with a focused repair, we’ll discuss alternatives and recommend the appropriate service. You’ll receive a clear quote before the appointment begins so you can decide without surprises.
