Loc’d By E, a boutique hair studio in Indianapolis, is offering specialized microloc installations and maintenance services focused on promoting healthy hair growth and precision styling.
The studio provides a consultation-first approach to ensure each client receives customized care. Consultations are mandatory for new clients and involve assessing hair health, texture and suitability for microlocs. Clients are required to arrive with clean, air-dried hair, free of product buildup. The consultation fee is non-refundable and does not go toward the installation cost.
Microloc installations start at $1,200 for hair that is up to five inches long. The price increases based on length, density and complexity, with a maximum service length of 10 inches for natural hair. A $250 deposit is required to book an installation appointment, with the remaining balance due on the day of the service. Loc’d By E does not work with severely damaged or chemically treated hair.
The studio also provides retying services to maintain clean and well-formed locs. Rates vary depending on how many weeks have passed since the last maintenance appointment, beginning at $150 for reties scheduled between four and six weeks. Prices increase up to $275 for appointments booked at 10 weeks. Additional time is billed at $30 per hour. Correction services are also available for clients who need adjustments to existing microlocs, billed at $50 per hour.
Loc’d By E maintains several policies to ensure a smooth experience for clients, including requiring that clients come alone to appointments due to limited space. Installations canceled within 72 hours of the scheduled appointment are subject to a 10% cancellation fee.
Located at 4201 Millersville Rd. in Suite 206, the studio operates Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday with varying hours. Loc’d By E is closed on Wednesdays and Sundays.
