Wash and detangle

Wash day

Shampoo, a conditioning step and a slow detangle, done in sections by someone who works with your pattern.

For clients who want wash day handled, whether it's a reset between styles or the start of a new look. Book a wash and detangle on its own, add a finished style, or come in after twists for a take-down and detangle.

What to bring or tell us

  • What has been on your hair lately: relaxer, color, henna or heat

  • Products you like, or want to avoid

  • A photo of the finish you're after, if you have one

Questions about this service

How often should I come?

As often as your scalp and your style need. We'll talk about a rhythm at your consultation, and it can change with the season.

Do I need to detangle before I come?

No. Come as you are, and tell us how your hair has been. Detangling is part of the appointment.

Do you use heat?

Only if you ask for it. A wash and detangle is dried under a diffuser or stretched with a blow-dryer on a setting we agree with you.
