    6 Methods of Starting Locs- How to and Loc Tips

    May 28, 2020 /

    Methods of starting locs. Starting locs is an important and memorable moment for many people but it can also cause concern and worry. If you are considering locs, you may know that there are many methods to choose from and each has its advantages and disadvantages.  When you first decide to start locs, you must think of what is most important to you or your personality type.

    Loc Update. I’ve been on this Loc Journey for 7 months! The journey has been long and beautiful. Just like there have been many changes in my life there have been any changes with my Locs. I have grown and my Locs have grown. I have become stronger in myself and my Locs have become thicker as well. Having Locs has been teaching me a lot about life and myself. Well!

Today as I kick off my new blog series My natural Hair, Loved I want to acknowledge all the brave black men and woman that fought so that wearing Locs can be accepted the way it is now. Thank you for your sacrifices. Today we are being joined by Roxanne, a woman who is Loc’d and educated,…
