Starter Micro Loc Retie Maintenance
Early-stage maintenance for new micro Locs still forming.
Service Description
This service is for starter microlocs that are still in the early formation stage. It is best for new microloc sets, the first few reties after installation, soft or unraveling locs, early matting, or locs that are still settling into their pattern. Starter microlocs often require more time and care because the locs are not fully settled yet. This appointment may include gentle separation, root organization, unraveling correction, light detangling where needed, and tension-conscious retightening to help protect the grid while the locs continue to form. This service is not the same as mature microloc maintenance. Starter microlocs require more control, patience, and careful handling, especially when the hair is still loose, budding, or beginning to matte at the root. Reties are performed with a scalp-first, tension-conscious approach, and we do not over-tighten to force a cleaner appearance. Appointments typically take 5 to 6 hours. Pricing starts at $275 with a $75 deposit. Final pricing may increase based on density, new growth, matting, merging, product buildup, missed maintenance, repairs, or any additional time required. If the starter set has excessive unraveling, matting, buildup, or overdue maintenance, additional time or corrective fees may apply. This service is not for established or mature microlocs. If your microlocs are already settled and you are on a regular maintenance schedule, please book Micro Loc Retie Maintenance instead. Please take down any styles before your appointment and arrive with your hair or locs loose and ready to be serviced. If questions or concerns come up after your appointment, you are welcome to follow up by email, text, or phone.
