Retwist + 6 Braids is a loc maintenance and styling service that refreshes new growth while creating a clean, braided finish.

What is Retwist + 6 Braids?

A retwist (also called a palm roll) maintains established locs by twisting the new growth at the root so it blends into the loc. It keeps roots neat, sections defined and locs from joining together. Palm roll retwists are typically booked every four to six weeks.

Retwist + 6 Braids is about 1 hr 45 min for $180. This version adds your locs styled into 6 large braids to the standard retwist. Final timing depends on your hair length and density and is confirmed when you book.

What to expect at your appointment

• Jae checks your roots for thinning, tension spots and locs that have started to join.
• A shampoo is included so your roots are clean before they are twisted.
• New growth is parted and retwisted firm but never painful, because tension at the base is what costs hair.
• Locs are dried, then your locs styled into 6 large braids is finished last.

Aftercare and keeping it fresh

• Sleep in a satin bonnet or on a satin pillowcase.
• Do not re-twist your own roots between visits; over-twisting is what thins them.
• Keep moisture light, and book your next visit before your locs start to join.
