# TequilaDidIt > Cosmetologist | Master LoC Specialist | Beauty Professional | The Hair Alchemist Beauty is an art, education is the foundation, and every service should be approached with intention. With over 18 years of experience in the beauty industry, I am a licensed cosmetologist whose work extends far beyond one specialty. While loc installation, maintenance, restoration, and repair are among my signature services, my education and passion encompass the broader world of hair, skin, and beauty. My approach combines technical knowledge, creativity, continued education, and an appreciation for healthy hair. From intricate loc transformations and natural hair care to silk presses, extensions, precision styling, and professional smoothing treatments, I believe in creating results that complement each client’s individuality. As a Keratin Complex certified smoothing treatment professional and Dermalogica certified skincare professional, I continue to expand my expertise through advanced education and professional development. I believe that being a beauty professional means never becoming complacent. There is always another technique to master, another perspective to explore, and another level to reach. My philosophy is simple: Quality over quantity. Education over limitation. Intention behind every service. Beyond the salon, I envision creating opportunities for the next generation of beauty professionals through advanced education, hands-on training, and eventually a beauty institution that bridges the gap between cosmetology school and real-world salon confidence. Whether you’re visiting for a signature loc service, a healthy hair transformation, or a completely new look, my goal is to provide an experience rooted in professionalism, creativity, and care. Welcome to Crafted by Tequila. Where every strand is crafted with intention. - Address: 43227 Crescent Blvd suite 40, Novi, MI 48375, USA - **How do I know which loc style is right for me?** A professional loctician can consider your loc condition, desired look, lifestyle, and comfort when guiding you toward a suitable style. A thoughtful consultation helps ensure the finished look complements your hair while supporting its ongoing care. - **How should I prepare my hair for a loc service?** Clean, gently detangled hair and a clear understanding of your desired result can help create a strong starting point. A professional can also advise on any preparation needed based on your hair and the service selected. - **Can protective styles be used with locs?** Many protective styles can be adapted for locs, adding variety while keeping the natural hair journey in mind.
