Question 6

What are some common misconceptions about locs?

Accepted Answer

There are many misconceptions about locs, but here are four of the most common:
Locked hair grows more slowly – that’s not true, but because of the density of locs, hair growth takes longer to notice. 
Hair with locs is dirty – nope, locs are regularly washed and conditioned, so they’re not dirty at all.
You have to start locs off from short hair - many people do opt to start the loc process from short hair, but it’s not essential.
They have to be shaved off – don’t fret, if you no longer want your locs, they can be trimmed then unravelled, or simply combed out.
