Locs (or dreadlocks) are a hairstyle where hair is intentionally matted or coiled into rope-like sections. A specialist loctician can start new locs, maintain and retwist existing locs, style locs for events, and provide treatments to keep the scalp and locs healthy.

Locs typically need retwisting or maintenance every 4–8 weeks to keep the roots neat and prevent matting between sections. Regular scalp care and moisturising between appointments keeps locs and scalp healthy.

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.

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.

Starting locs correctly is essential for long-term health and even growth. Browse and book experienced locticians offering loc installs near you on Fresha.
