What to expect in-session
A typical Fauce locs appointment at Tina African hair braiding is a focused styling session. Customers should arrive with clean, washed hair as reported by past clients; that preparation reduces chair time and helps the braider work precisely. The salon includes braiding hair with the service, and the full booked block covers the complete style work.
Sessions are handled with attention to comfort. Reviewers describe gentle technique and a peaceful atmosphere, which matters for clients who are tender-headed. Expect tidy parting, careful edge work according to your preference, and a session that may require patience because precision and comfort are priorities during styling.
How your hair shapes results
Hair length and texture influence the final appearance and hold. Clients with very short cuts have successfully received Fauce locs at this salon, demonstrating adaptability for different starting points. Discuss your desired density and edge styling during booking so the stylist can plan part size and any needed additions.
Many clients choose to add specific extension hair for a custom look; one reviewer brought human body-wave crochet for a boho finish. Climate and lifestyle also matter—Dayton's humid summers and cold winters affect daily maintenance choices, so consider how often you'll be outdoors and how you plan to protect the style.
Location, timing, and logistics
Appointments for Fauce locs are substantial time commitments—the service block is 360 MINUTES—so plan your day accordingly. The listed price is $200. Tina's location in South Dayton, near Deeds Avenue and the University of Dayton, is easy to reach from I-75 and local bus routes, making after-work or weekend bookings convenient for commuters and students.
Punctual arrival helps keep long sessions on schedule; a past guest noted a delayed start, so allow a little buffer when planning. Bring washed hair and any extension hair you want used; the salon includes standard braiding hair with the service, and noting special requests at booking helps the stylist prepare.
