What the appointment includes
New micro loc clients receive a dedicated retie appointment that includes shampoo and a trim. The service is reserved for new Microloc clients only and begins with a consultation and cleansing, followed by shaping and retightening. Price starts at $275 and the scheduled session length is 180 MINUTES, so plan accordingly when booking.
The consultation covers hair history and goals so the stylist can determine what can be accomplished in a single session. The condition of your Microlocs—such as new growth, loose roots, or prior maintenance—shapes how much shaping and retightening are feasible within the booked time.
How timing shapes results
The appointment length is 180 MINUTES, which allows time for a full shampoo, a precise trim, and careful retightening without rushing. Hair density, length, and the amount of shaping you request will affect how that time is used. Consider local commute times when booking, especially if you travel via I-95 or the MARC line to Laurel.
Because this is a new-client retie, stylists set aside extra time for assessment and planning. Arriving a few minutes early helps ensure the consultation is complete so hands-on work uses the full session. If repairs beyond a standard retie are needed, the stylist will outline additional options and scheduling.
Preparing for your retie visit
Shampoo is included, so pre-washing is not required; however, try to avoid heavy oils or sticky products before your appointment. Bring notes about previous maintenance, the age of your Microlocs, and any product sensitivities so the stylist can plan the retie and trim appropriately and tailor recommendations to your hair.
Plan for the full 180-minute appointment and select a time that fits your commute or family schedule.
