No, you don’t need to pre-wash—our specialists start with a personalized cleanse and treatment to assess curl behavior. If you prefer arriving freshly washed, mention it, but we’ll always tailor the prep to your hair's needs.

Yes — the Curl Doctor protocol is designed to redistribute weight through precision layering, slide cutting, and selective thinning where safe. We assess curl clumping and density to create balance, eliminate bulk points, and enhance definition without compromising curl integrity or length.
