What the service includes
Before booking, a consultation must be completed so we can assess hair, discuss goals and determine whether microlocs are the right choice. The Microloc Install includes a shampoo and the full installation. Pricing starts at $1000 and increases based on hair length and density; the standard appointment duration for this service is 510 minutes.
Installation is tailored to your natural texture, length and desired parting; session layout and final loc size vary with your hair's density. During the consultation we cover daily wear, how local Mid-Atlantic seasons in Pikesville affect styling and suggested follow-up timing. This helps balance appointment length, maintenance needs and practical choices for commuters or busy family schedules.
How price is determined
Our listed starting price of $1000 reflects the basic Microloc Install. Because installation time and material needs grow with hair length and density, the final cost will be set after your required consultation. At consultation we measure length, assess density and provide a written service estimate so you know how the price changes before booking.
The installation appointment is 510 minutes long; clients should plan travel time and any breaks. Pikesville's easy access via Reisterstown Road and I-695 makes pre- or post-work appointments attractive for commuters, so scheduling is discussed during consultation to match your routine and reduce disruption to busy family schedules.
Preparing for appointment
Because the service includes a shampoo, you do not need to arrive freshly washed unless you prefer to. Bring photos of the look you want and be ready to discuss your hair history, including any recent coloring or chemical services; these details are covered in the required consultation and can influence the installation approach and quote.
Plan to be at the salon for the full 510 minutes; you may want to bring a phone charger, water and anything needed for a longer visit. We work with clients to schedule around busy family routines and commuter times. Pikesville's location along the Reisterstown Road commercial corridor makes reaching the salon convenient for local residents and nearby commuters.
