Locs can be started using a range of methods including two-strand twists, interlocking, freeforming, or comb coils, depending on hair type and the desired final result. A loctician will assess your hair and recommend the best starting method.

Question 5

How to care for locs?

Accepted Answer

Initially locs should be washed once every 1-2 weeks; any more than that could make your scalp dry and itchy. Mature locs can be washed, conditioned and moisturised regularly to help maintain hair health and prevent drying and breakage. You should moisturise your scalp, too (preferably with a natural, plant-based oil). And dry your locs thoroughly after washing, by squeezing out excess water section by section and wrapping them in a microfibre towel to dry. Avoid blow-drying your locks, which could damage your hair.

Question 6

How long does it take to create locs?

Accepted Answer

It can take anything from 3-8 hours to create the locs; and another 18-24 months to achieve the end goal.

Question 7

What are locs and how are they created?

Accepted Answer

Locs are a traditional African hairstyle that sees sections of hair coiled, braided, twisted, or palm-rolled into rope-like lengths which vary in width according to the style result you want to achieve.
