What the service includes
Loc Sprinkles includes twenty client-selected beads applied as colorful accents to your locs. The base service price is $60 and the appointment lasts 30 MINUTES. The standard kit covers 20 beads; additional beads are sold in sets of 10, and single-bead placement carries a separate upcharge, so tell your stylist how many beads you want.
You choose bead colors and placement for a personalized look; our stylists consult on balance and visibility so the beads complement your parting and loc pattern. Loc Sprinkles produces a playful, eye-catching accent that elevates your locs, especially popular in June, July, and August for summer vacations, music festivals and back-to-school styling.
Booking and timing considerations
The service runs 30 MINUTES, making it a quick add-on for clients commuting along Pico or La Cienega. Evening and weekend availability supports professionals and parents who need appointments around shopping or dining in the Robertson/La Cienega districts. We often schedule Loc Sprinkles before or after visits to Century City, Beverly Center, or local museums.
Because Loc Sprinkles is compact, the salon can accommodate late or tight schedules when possible; reviews note the team has handled rushed needs efficiently. During peak summer months it's wise to book ahead — Jun, Jul and Aug see the highest demand, especially around local festivals and vacation dates.
Care and style trade-offs
Beads add visual interest without changing your loc structure, but they do create focal points that can rub against clothing or hats. Los Angeles's mostly dry, outdoor-friendly climate keeps bead colors visible longer, but you'll want to discuss any daily routines with your stylist so placement avoids excess friction and maintains the natural look customers praise.
Decide whether you prefer a subtle accent or statement amount before the appointment; more beads increase cost and visual impact. Remember single-bead placements incur an upcharge, and larger bead counts require purchasing extra beads in sets of 10, so the choice balances budget, style, and the playful result you want.
