Studio Chique's loc and natural hair menu in Northeast DC, with prices, appointment times and how often to book.

Editorial Team, Directory Editorial Team·Published ·How we vet

Studio Chique ~ Luxury Salon & Wellness Spa in Northeast Washington lists four loc services and ten natural hair styles. This guide sets out the prices and times, and explains what each service involves and how often clients usually book it.

Loc services

A retwist tightens new growth at the roots so each loc stays neat and defined. Loc styling shapes locs that are already maintained into an updo, curls or another style. Loc maintenance covers upkeep of the locs themselves.

ServicePriceTime
Loc Styling$4545 min
Loc Retwistfrom $952 hr
Loc Maintenance$952 hr 30 min
Loc Retwist + Stylingfrom $2404 hr

How often to retwist: many people retwist every four to eight weeks. Retwisting too often can stress the roots, so ask your loctician what interval suits your hair. Plan the retwist with styling (from $240, about 4 hours) when you want to leave styled, or a retwist alone (from $95, about 2 hours) when you do not.

  • Twist outs, flat twists, flexi-rod and perm rod sets set the hair to create definition without extensions.
  • Braid downs braid the hair flat, often as the base for a wig or sew-in. The Basic Braid-Down + Scalp Exfoliation Therapy adds a scalp treatment to the braid down.
  • Designer cornrows are priced by level of detail. The menu lists a starting rate and asks clients to share inspiration photos so it can confirm the price.
  • Hybrid half twists combine two twist styles, priced with or without added hair.
  • Which service to book

    If you have locs and want them neat: a retwist (from $95). Add styling if you have an event.

    For definition on your own hair with no added hair: a twist out (from $85) or a flexi-rod set ($115).

    For a protective base under a wig or sew-in: a basic braid down (from $90).

    For a statement braided style: designer cornrows (from $140). Send photos first so the price can be confirmed.

    Keeping the style longer

  • Sleep with a satin bonnet or on a satin pillowcase.
  • Keep your scalp clean and moisturised without heavy build-up.
  • Avoid pulling styles too tight, and tell your stylist if anything feels painful.
  • What to ask when you book

  • Whether your hair should be washed before the appointment or will be washed there.
  • How long the style should last and when to come back.
  • For braided and twisted styles, whether hair is included or extra.
  • Where to book
