To be honest sis, your stylist choosing to back comb your hair before crocheting is why you lost so much length but you actually don’t need to back comb. I’m a locologist/loctitian who’s been instant locking hair with the crochet method for over 5 years and one thing I can tell you that I’ve learned over the years is as long as you have a good technique down when it comes to crocheting, you don’t need to back comb. Your stylist should have also explained to you that depending on the parting style you choose, determines how “full” your over all look will be. Straight parts (square) equals less fullness. Circle/curved parts (round) or even the triangle parts will give a fuller look so you wouldn’t even need “as many” locs (number count) to be high because the curved parts gives the “appearance” of fuller hair.

Hi, I got mine slightly smaller so that when they thicken they would be the perfect size. I’m not sure if this would work for you, but keep in mind if you get them thick they’ll get even thicker. So it may be best to go slightly smaller. Just look up some loc size pictures on google to compare what you think best fits your liking. 💓

It depends on how thick or thin your hair is... You cannot get over a hundred locks if you have very fine hair, your locs will be popping off left and right. Texture is important when deciding a lock size

Frizz is apart of the loc journey

I've learned within the first two years of my lock journey that frizz is part of the process, and it's really not a problem. I used to cut it. But I noticed after some started thinning and I was combining locks with two strand twists or even braids, it wasn't as effective because there was no frizz to mesh together. I find that it's better to tuck the frizz into the locks with a crochet needle. Yes, it takes time. But it'll help keep the locks strong.

@Heyu7her3

Locs are a natural hairstyle... frustration with frizz to the point of cutting is simply weird. People need to interrogate their true reason for wantting locs in the first place. If the desire is aesthetics to the point of manicurist them, then faux locs are the best option.

Your locs are beautiful! I got mine march of this year and they cost me $800 not including the price to style it. Now I’m regretting them and plan to uninstall them. My hair sat and the top of my shoulder. I got 8 inch extensions with small brick layer parts and now my hair is in the middle of my back. My extensions are still very hard😞….even after using the rose water and having regular maintenance. I have a very fine hair texture and it’s extremely curly. Now my hair is actually unraveling from the extensions. I’ve also had a lot of them fall out and some began to slide. I told my stylist about them and she claimed that it was fine. However, now you can clearly see the difference between my hair and the extensions. Plus, I’ve had a lot of the extensions either pop in half or pop at the end. My stylist said that it was normal….clearly it’s not. I hate that my first experience was so terrible. For what it’s worth I’ll be taking out the extensions and keep my hair loc’d

Sorry you had to go through that. I’d be devastated too. Your stylist honestly should’ve took them out for you instead of letting you wait it out. But Most definitely if you had that bad experience with extensions I recommend taking them out. It sounds like you had a nice hair texture before the extensions and due to them not matching your hair texture it was hard to blend it. Also, not sure rose water and oil work on extensions but I know it works on your real hair because it absorbs it and moisturizes it. I definitely recommend trying locs with your real hair although it’s short, it’ll grow in no time. My instant locs were also really really short but my hair has grown a lot. 💓

My instant locs were created using my real natural hair. My loctician used a crochet hook to create instant locs. Instant Locs require maintenance meaning when you go for a retwist your loctician will use the crochet hook to tighten your instant locs (real hair) so they can maintain its shape. However, with instant locs you still have to wait until they mature, harden and loc. But if you don’t like how short your real hair is some people add extensions to the end by connecting a fake loc.

If you googled how instant locs are made, it states that the hair is backcombed and then locked with the help of a crochet needle. Using a crochet needle is the only way to achieve instant locs, therefore, any other method isn’t instant locs. So, in the end I do have instant locs. Depending on the length of your hair not everyone loses 2 inches, some more and some less. If you watched videos of how instant locs are actually made you’d understand more. An it is true that you can wash your hair whenever you want after receiving instant locs, I just chose not to. Lastly, my instant locs came out healthy and exactly how they were supposed to so that’s all that matters. More updated loc content coming soon. 💓

how many do you have

I use Ebin New York 24 hour edge tamer purple container. It works but sometimes leaves white residue. So I’ve been meaning to try a lady that made her own edge control, her Instagram is _uniquelycrowned that’s the next edge control I’ll be trying. 💓

Both my brothers & my dad have locs. Their frizz has most definitely reduced as their locs matured. Compared to my hair, this eventually gave their locs a neater look. Therefore, all locs don’t stay frizzy, it reduces. So I’ve seen both frizzy & neat locs, maybe it just depends on hair texture. An I embrace every stage of the locking process.
