Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We've got answers!
What are box braids and why are they popular?
Box braids are individual plaits divided by small squared-off sections. They're popular because they're versatile, protective, and can last for weeks with proper care. They come in various sizes and can be styled in countless ways.
What are knotless braids and how do they differ from traditional box braids?
Knotless braids are installed without the traditional knot at the base, making them lighter and causing less tension on your scalp. They look more natural, are more comfortable, and put less stress on your edges compared to traditional box braids.
Do you offer feed-in braids and what are their benefits?
Yes! Feed-in braids are a technique where hair is gradually added as the braid progresses, creating a more natural, flat appearance. Benefits include less tension on edges, a more natural look, and longer-lasting styles with less frizz.
What types of loc services do you provide?
We offer Soft Locs and Butterfly Locs. Soft locs are lightweight and natural-looking, while Butterfly locs have a trendy, textured distressed look. Both are protective styles that can last 4–8 weeks with proper care.
What are passion twists and how do they differ from other twists?
Passion twists are romantic, springy two-strand twists created using water wave hair, giving them a soft, voluminous look. Unlike traditional twists, they have a more textured, bouncy finish and are particularly known for their beautiful curl pattern at the ends.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Please arrive with clean, washed, and dried hair that is free of any creams or heavy products. This allows us to work efficiently and give you the best results. Also remember to text us two days before your scheduled appointment to confirm.
