# Lupe Stylz > I am Lupe, a Chicago-based home stylist and traveling hair artist who welcomes every hair texture, length, and age. I create braids, knotless styles, loc services, retwists, starter locs, shampoo services, and blow-dries with care and attention to each client's needs. As a cosmetology student, I keep learning while making every appointment comfortable, creative, and personal. - Phone: +12247070336 - Address: Chicago, IL, USA - Monday, Sunday: Closed - Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday: 09:00–17:00 Timezone: America/Chicago - **What should I consider when choosing a hair stylist?** Look for a professional who listens carefully, understands different hair textures, and takes time to discuss your desired look. Clear communication helps create a comfortable experience and supports results that suit your hair and lifestyle. - **Can a stylist work with different hair textures and lengths?** Hair professionals may work with a wide range of textures and lengths, including natural, short, and loc'd hair. A consultation helps the stylist assess the hair and adapt techniques to its condition, density, and structure. - **How should I prepare my hair for a styling service?** Preparation depends on the style and the current condition of the hair. Sharing relevant details about recent treatments, scalp concerns, and your usual routine helps the stylist determine the most appropriate preparation. - **How can I protect my hair and scalp during styling?** Healthy styling begins with attention to scalp comfort, hair condition, and appropriate tension. A professional can explain how to care for the style afterward and identify adjustments that help support the ongoing health of the hair. - **What if I am not sure which style is right for me?** A professional can help compare options based on your hair, personal preferences, daily routine, and desired level of maintenance. Bringing inspiration images and being open about what you like or dislike can make the consultation more productive. ## Services - [Knotless Braids](https://lupestylz.work/services/knotless-braids.md): I create knotless braid styles for different hair textures and lengths. - [Loc Retwist Styling](https://lupestylz.work/services/loc-retwist-styling.md): I provide shampoo, retwist, and styling for maintained, healthy-looking locs. - [Starter Locs](https://lupestylz.work/services/starter-locs.md): I start new loc journeys with shampoo, blow-dry, and foundational styling. - [Braids and Blow-Dry](https://lupestylz.work/services/braids-blow-dry.md): I combine shampoo and blow-dry services with custom braid styling. ## Contact & Social - [instagram](https://instagram.com/lupe.stylz) - [facebook](https://www.facebook.com/share/1HK9tC6SgR/?mibextid=wwXIfr) ## Pages - [Home](https://lupestylz.work/index.md) - [Pricing](https://lupestylz.work/pricing.md) - [Wash, Blow-Dry And Braids](https://lupestylz.work/services/braids-blow-dry.md) - [Custom Knotless Braid Session](https://lupestylz.work/services/knotless-braids.md) - [Complete Loc Refresh](https://lupestylz.work/services/loc-retwist-styling.md) - [Starter Loc Foundation Session](https://lupestylz.work/services/starter-locs.md)
