We recommend scheduling every four to six weeks depending on loc growth, texture, and desired maintenance. More frequent visits benefit newly started or loose locs, while mature, tightly locked styles may require fewer touch-ups.

Palm rolling refines shape and encourages compacting at the root and shaft; it does not permanently alter your natural texture. Performed correctly, it tightens loose areas and smooths frizz while preserving your locs' integrity and healthy appearance.

Session length varies with loc size and quantity but typically takes between forty-five and ninety minutes. Smaller, well-maintained locs finish faster; denser or longer styles require more time for careful, thorough palm-rolling and finishing.

We advise waiting twenty-four to forty-eight hours before washing to allow palm-rolled roots to set. If you must cleanse earlier, use a gentle, residue-free shampoo and pat hair dry; avoid vigorous rubbing that could loosen freshly rolled locs.

Yes. Palm rolling is ideal for early-stage loc development to encourage neat formation and uniform direction. Our stylists use gentle, supportive techniques to minimize stress while promoting healthy matting and consistent loc patterns for long-term strength.

Protect your investment by sleeping with a satin bonnet, moisturizing lightly with water-based sprays or light oils, and avoiding heavy products. Schedule regular maintenance and contact us if tenderness, excessive buildup, or unusual changes occur in your locs.
