Faux Locs: Marley Locs, Temporary Loc Extensions, Protective Styling

Last year was all about Marley Twists and this year I've decided to try Faux Locs! These Temporary Loc Extensions are a great style for the winter months to keep you hair protected.
Hair Used: An assortment of Marley Hair I collected over the past year (maybe 10 or 11 packs)
Hair Color: 4 (dark brown), 27 (blonde) and a reddish brown
Time: at least 10 hours over 3 days (after some practice I could finish wrapping 8/hour)
Weight: It is very heavy, heavier than box braids.
Duration of Style: I plan on leaving mine in for at least 4 weeks but no more than 8, (although you could probably wear them up to 3 months depending on your hair type and condition of your hair)

[@Donedo]

TamikaJMusic Thanks!

[@HeLiftsSheSquats]

I have been subscribed to you FOREVER (well for as long as you have been on youtube lol) but never commented from my personal channel... BUT This one really has given me some inspiration. You always give great styles and much of my braiding techniques I owe to you. I say that all to say that I have been looking for a new style and I will be giving it a shot. Will keep you posted on how it came out. -Amira

[@Donedo]

Thanks! Let me know how it turns out!

[@HeLiftsSheSquats]

It came out pretty fab! I do my base a little different with my twists (I start with a 3 strand then use my own hair to cover the start so it's invisible as I always felt that doing the twists from the root isn't secure enough for me). I also used 2 strands instead of 3-4 as you mentioned to wrap it. (I can't imagine the heaviness of using more because this ish right here is heavy! lol)... Are you in instagram? I will tag you there or in our next series of videos. Thanks so much for the inspiration! -A

[@Donedo]

HeLiftsSheSquats yes,@donedo

[@tyty1232840]

Ya know I think I may crochet it next month for my birthday I may braid it small then when doing the locks twist not so small but doing an ombre style when you add more hair for second half. Thank you for taking time to edit and adding this video. =)

[@franchiseplaya75]

Love, love, love it. Would love to see the bun tutorial.

[@carolsmith3842]

I learned so much from this video. Thanks for sharing!

[@StormyHair]

Thanks!

[@killahkeedy]

Yesss! They're so pretty! Can you please do a tutorial on the pin up style you had!

[@Donedo]

killahkeedy It's on my channel, maybe "faux loc styles"

[@MuscleLoverNik]

Thanks to this tutorial and one other, I tried this last night. I loved how they came out however I'd try them smaller when I am ready to do it again and go all the way. I only did one side (only purchased 1 pack). I think the next time I will use Marley hair under for the twist (or braid) because the regular braiding hair just didn't seem right underneath. Thanks again!

[@HeavenlyWebb]

This looks great on you!

[@BonnetsDurags]

ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOVEEEEE THIS!

[@Donedo]

Thanks!

[@Jezyra]

I love this style! I wish I had the patience or the hair texture to do this style.

[@blueangeloftheseas]

It looks amazing, thank you for sharing, I'd love to try this one day

[@Donedo]

blueangeloftheseas Thanks!

[@ShelbyMarie1794]

The best way to keep the ends from sticking is to make the ends of the marely hair really uneven and once you get to the end of your "dread", fold it up and wrap it around the "dread". The uneven end will make the hair stick together. Once your done with your entire head, dip your ends in boiling water to seal it and the boiling water will make them less stiff.

[@LovelyShanny]

Omg so beautiful!!! Definitely gonna try this! ^.^

[@Donedo]

Thanks!

[@faysam60]

They look gorgeous! may give them a try. God bless x

[@Donedo]

Aww thanks!
