Hi, my name is Renée. I appreciate you taking the time to explore what my small business has to offer. This work has been lovingly honed and refined over the last two decades of my life. I truly believe that I’ve been living within my life purpose, and it’s my intention to share that bliss with others. My approach to hair is holistic, carefully nurturing health and longevity with techniques that have stood the test of time in my career. I always handle hair with reverence. This hair has been with you, it holds stories and wisdom from your life, and I’m honored to be a part of that story.

IDEOLOGY

I believe in wholesome care to clean healthy locs. This is all about the technique I specialize in and some general information about my approach to loc making.

My walk

I grew up in a small foothills town in northern California’s Sierras, and earned my cosmetology license in 2006. The first locs I created were on friends in high school, but my real foundation began once I entered the profession. In the early 2000’s, techniques were passed hand-to-hand through friend circles, forums, and sometimes pearls of wisdom from my friends’ hippie parents. My techniques are rooted in old tradition, and shaped by over two decades of lived professional experience as a loctician. In 2022, following a deep pull toward home, I moved to Asheville and opened Lox Box. It was hard to leave clients that I had for 20 years, but here I’ve found my community, my husband, and that true sense of home.

   Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We waited over 2 months for an appointment and were not disappointed! My caucasian wife has had locks for about 18 months and recently we had an appointment that didn't go so well. When we got to see Renee, my wife was really worried that her locks would need a ton of work. Renee is so knowledgeable and so experienced, she allayed our fears and got to work. A couple of hours later, my wife's hair looks amazing! Renee is kind, generous, professional, and really good at what she does. I can't say enough good things about the session, and we hope to see her again!

   Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Renee is amazing!! I have locs that are 12 years old and have never been touched by a crochet hook and she was the first person I trusted to do some maintenance and when I say she did an amazing job, I mean amazing!! Highly recommend for anyone who wants a real professional who genuinely cares about who’s in her chair.

My 8-year-old son had been talking about getting locs for months. He's got awesome hair that seems perfect for them! But, it's a big commitment.  So, we headed to Lox Box and met Renée. Right away, I knew we were in the right place. She was fantastic with my son! Treated him with respect, you know? No baby talk, just straight up explaining the process, showing him different loc styles, and making sure he knew what he was in for.
Six weeks later (after my son finally decided on the size he wanted!), we were back in Renée's chair.  She was so patient while he was getting his hair locked. He was in that chair for a good while, but Renée kept him entertained the whole time.  Honestly, I was super impressed. And the results?  🔥  My son is stoked about his locs, and I'm so glad we went to Renée at Lox Box. If you're thinking about getting locs (for yourself or your kid),  Renée's the one to see!
