An exclusive, precision-based loc restoration experience coming to Birmingham and Northampton. This is not a basic retwist — it’s a focused session designed to restore, strengthen, and improve the health of your locs from root to tip.
Each session includes a professional retwist using high-grade products, full loc repair for broken, thinning, holed, or crooked locs, and detailed work using a 0.4mm crochet tool. You’ll receive one-to-one attention along with expert guidance on maintaining your locs between sessions.
This service focuses on structural correction, alignment, and long-term durability — not temporary styling. With over 2 years of hands-on experience, I specialise in tension control, follicle stress prevention, loc density balance, and growth pattern correction. Your locs won’t just look better — they’ll be stronger.
Suitable for traditional locs (40–115 locs) with mild to moderate issues. Not suitable for microlocs, sisterlocks, or severe damage.
Sessions last up to 3 hours, across 2 days (9am–6pm), with only 5 clients per day.
Price: £500 total. £250 deposit secures your slot, remaining £250 due before your session.
When needed, the Shanloc’s Filling Technique is used to strengthen and thicken thinner locs so they better match the size of surrounding locs, creating a fuller and more balanced look.
Roots can stay neat and maintained for up to 12 weeks.

CONSULTATION ASSESSMENT - Virtual Consultation: £50 / In-Person: £50
Booking a consultation gives you clarity and a plan before any service begins. Instead of just showing up and hoping for the best, you get to discuss your concerns, understand your hair’s unique needs, and receive expert recommendations. I'll review your hair history, identify any weak spots or areas that need support, and map out the best loc journey for you. This ensures your locs look great, stay healthy, and last longer. A consultation saves time, prevents mistakes, and gives you confidence, because we start with knowledge, not guesswork.
This session provides an opportunity for you to discuss your hair openly and receive guidance tailored to your needs. We’ll discuss any concerns you have, whether they’re about growth, appearance, maintenance, or specific problem areas.
During the consultation, you will:
Receive expert recommendations based on your hair history, lifestyle, and goals.
Talk through the full loc journey, so you know what to expect at each stage.
Explore any limitations, such as weak spots, thinning areas, or alopecia, and understand how they may affect your locs.
Learn about options to support weak locs, including how human hair can be used to strengthen or rebuild areas that need extra care.
By the end of the session, you’ll have a clear plan, practical advice, and a personalised approach that supports the health and look of your locs.

Friendly and efficient service. Atmosphere was warm and inviting she took excellent care of my hair and checked in with throughout to ensure I was happy with what she was doing. Would recommend her to anyone who wants to start their locs journey . Thank you Shande 😊

I’m so glad I found you! You're now my go-to loctician. I absolutely love my retwist.
- Cherry·
Shanade retwisted my 84 locs in just 1.5 hours. I've been doing them myself for years, but I wanted a professional touch for my birthday. Shanade did not disappoint—I received the most compliments I've ever gotten, and it's the best they've looked in a long time. I'll definitely be back when I need to look super fly.
- Denise·
