Loc Extensions
Loc Extensions by The Natural Hair Lady:
(updated: February 29, 2016)
“Those are loc extensions?!” Yes.
Quite a few potential clients I meet are impressed about how natural my loc extensions look. Loc extensions are more common than—-say 10 years ago. I tell people, if you can tell that they are “fake” then run. Actually, you’ll find a lot more dreadheads have loc extensions than you think. The thing thing is—–they’re undetectable.
Loc extensions allow you to walk out the door with locs without the “in between phase” or as some refer to as “the ugly phase.” It’s pretty liberating. Your corporate boss won’t give you the questionable look of “whatcha got going on here, now?”
Loc Extensions with The Natural Hair Lady – Chimere
My loc extensions come with a 6 month warranty on them. This warranty covers any faulty work that—-you and I both—-do not want to happen. Any faulty work is covered by myself for no cost.
I give steps and guidelines to my clients to follow so that your locs are healthy, strong, and natural looking for life.
You can wash, style, and go along with your life as normal with loc extensions. There’s absolutely no additional hair needed afterwards. You can go to across country for loc grooming and that loctician would not need to know or give your locs any special treatment because they were started with extensions.
All of my clients know I’m an open book. They call/text/email me for any continuous advice or questions.
I go into detail about what loc extensions are and some other details in this video. Take a look:
How do I schedule an appointment? How much does this cost?
My pricing depends on the size, length and the amount of hair you have. Below, I’ve listed the prices by photos. All quotes are confirmed after consulting with me.
The cost of hair isn’t included however I’m hear to assist you in your purchase. There’s a specific type and brand of hair that I work with so please call to set up your consult and deposit of $75 today.
All deposits are not refundable. Once a deposit is made it goes towards the cost for your service. If you cancel your appointment before 48 hours of the actual time of your appointment, your deposit can be transfered to another day. If you cancel your appointment within 48 hours, then you forfeit your appointment. (absolutely no exceptions) Once you book your appointment, you’re my only client for that day—–this assures 110% of my time is available to you. The deposit goes towards your total service.
I recommend to schedule your big day on a day with no time constraints.
The cost of this technique also includes a wash :)

Q: Does the price include the hair?
No. The price I quote you is for the service. The hair cost is based upon how long the locs will be + how much hair the client has. For instance, if someone with an average amount of hair is getting the length B, they will expect to spend around $200 on hair. The reason for “around $200” is because it really depends on the beauty supply store you choose. Some may apply a discount. I will give you the best areas to purchase the hair after our phone conversation or face to face consultation.
Q: Do you charge for consultations?
No. I think that’s absurd. Consultations are always free. A deposit is required to set your actually appointment for the service.
Q: How much is your deposit?
The deposit is $75 and this goes towards your total service cost. If your service will take more than one day, then a deposit of $75 for each day the service is expected to use is required. Deposits are not refunded. If you give a 48 hour or more notice, then the deposit will be transfered to another service. If you give a cancellation within 48 hours from the time of your appointment, you are forfeiting your deposit.
Q: What is your cancellation/tardy policy?
Cancellations
The client must show up at the time shown on their styleseat confirmation email.
Life happens and if you have to cancel, just give me a notice of at least 48 hours. (For example: if your appointment is Thursday at 8:30am, please give contact me no later than Tuesday at 8:30am.
If the appointment is cancelled with 48 hour notice, the deposit will be transferred to a rescheduled appointment.
The rescheduled appointment must be made within 24 hours of canceling. If the client attempts to schedule a new appointment after 24 hours, he or she forfeits the deposit and a new deposit will have to be made.
The rescheduled appointment must be made within 24 hours of canceling. If the client attempts to schedule a new appointment after 24 hours, he or she forfeits the deposit and a new deposit will have to be made.
If an appointment is cancelled without a 48 hour cancellation notice, the client forfeits their deposit.
A deposit is considered any dollar amount given to hold the appointment. Cancellations are made via text, email, Styleseat.com or phone call.
Tardy
If you are running behind, please give me a call. I may not be able to provide you your service if you arrive more than 25 minutes late. My promise is to always start on time. If I’m running behind, then I promise to give you a call at least 45 minutes before your appointment.
Tardy for Loc Extensions & Kinky Twists
If the client (for loc extensions) arrives after 30 minutes of the appointment time, then they are forfeiting their deposit and the appointment is cancelled. Please call me to see if the day is flexible.
Q: What should I bring to/for my appointment?
A smile and your hair. There isn’t anything required. I have free protected wifi and tons of Netflix/Itunes/Hulu & music for entertainment. I, of course, will be educating you on locs and what to expect in the weeks, months, years to come.
Q: Should I wash my hair?
A wash is always included with all my services. For my loc extensions, I’ve noticed clients have pre-washed their hair to cut down on the time. It’s up to you entirely.
Q: Are they layered? How do you do them?
My whole purpose is to make them look as natural looking as possible. I layer them so them look the exact way someone would have grown them out. I’m a loctician so I run my hands through tons of loc including my own years ago.
I never have and never will use the following:
1) glue
2) synthetic hair
3) thread
You have my word. I’ve been asked if I use any of these items and the answer is absolutely not. I’ve been using the same technique for years before it was popular. The technique consists of braiding and wrapping the hair.
Q: What type of hair do you use?
I use hair by ‘Lord & Cliff.’ It’s human kinky hair.
If there are absolutely any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. I’m an open book! :)
Q: Do you provide grooming service afterwards?
Absolutely! I provide twisting for $65 and interlocking for $85. I would love to explain the differences in person–giving you the rundown of pros and cons.
