Loc Repair & Restoration

Loc repair strengthens thinning or damaged locs without starting over. We focus on reinforcing weak areas, correcting inconsistencies, and restoring structure. You’ll get honest guidance on what can be improved now and what will take time.

Loc Styling

Loc styling provides a polished finish while keeping your hair protected. We offer loc-friendly styles for everyday wear, work, or special occasions. Styling can be added after maintenance based on your appointment and desired look.
What to Expect at Your Appointment

A successful loctician appointment should always feel structured and calm. We begin by clarifying your individual goals, assessing the health of your hair and scalp, and selecting the most suitable technique for your loc journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
Loctician

How Do I Know if I Need a Retwist or Interlocking?

Retwists are a common choice for neatness and routine upkeep. Interlocking can last longer and may work better for some hair types and lifestyles. If you’re unsure, book a consult or message us with photos, and we’ll guide you toward the best option.

How Often Should I See a Loctician?

Many clients come in every 4–8 weeks, but it depends on how fast your hair grows and how neat you want your roots to look. Over-maintaining can cause stress on the hair, so the goal is a schedule that keeps your locs healthy.

Can You Fix Thinning Locs?

Sometimes, yes. It depends on how much thinning there is, where it’s happening, and what caused it. We’ll evaluate your locs and tell you what’s repairable, what needs a plan, and what might require restarting certain sections.

Why Choose Ramas Hair Braiding for Loc Services

Locs are a commitment, and your loctician should treat them that way. We’re focused on clean work, consistent technique, and realistic guidance so you can grow locs you’re proud of. If you’ve had painful maintenance in the past, uneven parts, or constant unraveling, we’ll help you reset with a method that fits your hair and your life.
