Get answers to common questions about Bohemian Locs.

Installation usually takes between three to six hours depending on hair length, desired thickness, and added embellishments. We book ample time to ensure precision and comfort; expect a consultation beforehand to confirm style, length, and any custom options.

When installed and maintained properly, Bohemian Locs are gentle on natural hair. Our stylists use safe tension techniques, protective products, and advise regular moisturizing and professional touch-ups to prevent stress or breakage. Individual hair condition affects results; we'll assess during consultation.

Most clients schedule maintenance every four to eight weeks to tidy roots, tighten loose locs, and refresh embellishments. Frequency depends on hair growth rate and activity level. We’ll recommend a personalized maintenance plan during your initial appointment.

Yes, you can swim and exercise with Bohemian Locs, but extra care is needed. Rinse and shampoo after salt or chlorinated water, use a swim cap when possible, and ensure thorough drying to prevent mildew or odor.

Bohemian Locs are highly versatile: wear them loose, in high buns, half-up styles, braided accents, or wrapped with fabrics and beads. Your stylist can craft looks for casual days, weddings, or festivals, using accessories and shaping to enhance your boho aesthetic.

Use a gentle, residue-free shampoo diluted with water; focus on scalp cleansing and gently squeeze through the locs. Rinse thoroughly and dry fully to avoid mildew. Lightly oil scalp, sleep on silk or satin, and avoid heavy creams that cause buildup.
