What is Loc Sculpting?
Loc Sculpting is a technique done to help smooth the shape of your locs. This process is done to help remove the effects associated with bunching. Bunching is when sections of your locs appear to have a bulge or bumpy look inconsistent with the common tube like shape locs usually form. Bunching can happen for several reasons.
- The texture of your hair
- The type of locs you installed
- Infrequent retightenings
The Cost
The process can take from 4-5 hours and costs $75.00 per hour. The time it takes depends on how much bunching you have. The price will be adjusted according to the time frame it takes with a base price of $75 from between 0-1 hour.
How long does it last?
The effects of loc sculpting are permanent as the process involves manually loc'ing your hair using a crochet tool. You are free to wash, style, and retwist your hair as normal. Bunching can reoccur in new growth if you delay your loc maintenance appointments.
