I like the way your doing yours it looks safe for my natural hair and I can do this myself with out paying and also making yourself beautiful is better

[@iamlexitracy]

Yup! It was very easy to do on myself. But if you’re not comfortable always go to a stylist, especially if they’re going to care for your natural tresses too.

[@deetothebodyyy9693]

Same thing I was thinking because putting the hair in-between your loc seems like it was lock in when it's time for it to come down .. I love her method , seems way safer

I like your method of attaching the loc because I cut my hair doing the crochet method. This seems a lil safer lol

[@Stan-dg6uh]

How long did you leave this style in ? Did taking out hurt/damage your natural locs ?

[@iamlexitracy]

I left it in for about a month because it was long and i didn’t feel like wearing it anymore. As long as you take the hair out properly, you won’t damage your locs. I suggest going to a professional or someone skilled with experience to take your locs out.

[@mrbutterflychick00]

Is there a method on taking it out? Or video 😅, I wouldn’t want to cut my actual locs!

[@imtamikalee]

This is so cute. How many locs do you have?

[@SupremacyGiyuTomioka]

How is the take down for this? I did a test run and got two locs in and when I tried to take them down I was like “awww naw!”. But this method is great! Best video I’ve seen this far. Great job.

[@iamlexitracy]

I’m going to have to film a quick take down video because it’s easier to visualize. But i like to start from the top loop of the crotchet curly hair & let it unravel. It’s so much easier to take down once they are old lol. It’s harder to take down a FRESH loc, so that’s why it was hard for you to take down. You just installed it freshly and it was tight. As it gets older, it gets loose & then you can see where your natural hair is vs the faux loc hair a little better. Now… sometimes it gets harder to take down when it gets old because it can look like it’s matting. But there’s techniques and ways around it. If you don’t feel comfortable, i highly recommend having your stylist or someone with experience w/ faux locs to take down your faux locs. They’ll be able to see it better than you.

[@gladheart4365]

Oh ok!

[@ChocolateBistro]

how many locs do you have

[@empresslove4075]

Can this do on waist length locs

[@azrieltucker4192]

Do u think that this would take more than a day?

[@iamlexitracy]

Most likely yes. It all depends on your determination lol. There’s 24 hrs in a day.

[@yasminjones6027]

how many locs do you have because I want to do this but I have 115ish locs and I don't want it to look bulky! should I combine some of them?

[@iamlexitracy]

Yes! Definitely combine them! You can always alter your look by combing the locs. I definitely combined a few of my locs because i didn’t want mines to look bulky either. The only thing with combing locs is that you don’t want the base of your locs looking bulky when you’re wrapping your hair. So just make sure that you wrap it good and you combine locs that make sense. (For example, if you have two super chunky locs and combine them.. expect your base of your faux locs to look bulky unless you wrap them in a way where your locs are flat and seamless. You can finesse it with the butterfly locs & the method i do in the video because of the curls and loops.

[@myasiamorris9021]

Hey so how many do you have? /combines

How many packs did you use

[@SIEDAH1989]

Hi! Do you recall how many packs it took?…of the Passion twist hair

[@myamyckel9556]

Do you remember how many locs you had at the time? I’m looking to do this on mine but don’t want it too heavy like last time 😅 my neck was killing me!

[@iamlexitracy]

I had over 100 locs but i would double some locs and just make one faux loc over two-three locs depending on the size. It’s easier to do that when the locs are newer and not as dense as older locs because it will compress together easier. When they are thick and fully locked it’s harder to double them because it could possibly look bulky and defeat the purpose. So it really depends on what you’re trying to achieve.

[@gladheart4365]

Good answer, thanks, turned out great!

[@JassASongbird]

Did you use any product while applying the locs ?

[@shortbabi12]

Heyy your hair came out soo cute 😍! Just wondering did you combine some of your locs and make it into one soft loc or you did every loc individual?

[@iamlexitracy]

Hi thank you!! I combined some of my locs. It would’ve been way too heavy for me individually locked one at a time lol

[@dawnrosewood7060]

How many locs do you have? DId you restart your locs? PArts seem a lot bigger.

[@JJenae]

Are these starter locs? I want to try these locs over my starter locs. I’m only 3 months in.

[@iamlexitracy]

Yes! They are starter locs. This is a great method to use if you are just starting out & wand to try different styles. Just be careful and don’t be too rough with your locs, treat them gently.

How many bags did you have left/ used ?

[@iamlexitracy]

I recommend 4-6 packs

[@brittneybarnes8454]

How do you combine two of your locs together into the faux loc? Do you two strand twist them together and then add the loc extension or do you just comb two locs together and then add the loc extension?

[@iamlexitracy]

Never comb two locs together from root to end, unless you plan on permanently keeping your locs that way. You can literally just take two locs and sit them next to each other because the ends won’t be seen.. I’m still trying to understand your question fully, so i hope that this answer makes sense.

How long did it take you I’m curious

I left mine in for about 2 months i believe. You don’t want to keep it in too long because it will be harder to take out.

[@MamaBear15o2]

@@iamlexitracy bet. Thank you 💗

[@geor6846]

How do you avoid it to unwrap???

[@iamlexitracy]

You avoid it from unwrapping by adding enough tension as you’re wrapping it around. If you’re wrapping it too lightly, it will leave extra space for it to move around.. Also, if you are using hair that is wayyyy too soft, it will be easy for it to slide around. After I’m done wrapping, i also like to take a tiny piece of hair (string like) and wrap around the hair. That tiny strand constricts the hair from moving too. But it all depends on 2 things. 1) the texture of the hair you’re using(try a coarser/curlier texture) 2) your pressure and tension while wrapping. (Too light = slippage.. toooo tight = stiffness.. you have to find a medium in between the two)
