## FAQ

### What does a loctician do?

A loctician is a hair professional who works with locs, including their maintenance, care, repair, and styling. Professional guidance can help support the condition of your locs while keeping your goals, hair needs, and overall comfort in mind.

### How often should locs be maintained?

Maintenance needs vary based on your hair, loc maturity, lifestyle, and preferred appearance. A professional can assess your locs and help you choose a care routine that supports a neat look without placing unnecessary stress on the hair or scalp.

### Can locs be repaired if they are thinning or damaged?

Some thinning, breakage, or separation may be addressed with professional repair techniques, depending on the condition of the locs. An evaluation helps determine an appropriate approach and can also identify habits that may be contributing to the concern.

### What is a loc detox, and why might it be helpful?

A loc detox is a cleansing-focused service intended to help remove buildup and refresh the locs. A professional can recommend whether this type of care is suitable based on the locs, scalp, and products or practices involved.

### How can I care for my locs between professional services?

Gentle cleansing, scalp care, moisture balance, and avoiding excessive tension can all support healthy-looking locs. A loctician can offer personalized guidance so your at-home routine complements your hair's needs and your loc journey.
