Faux Locs Ponytail

How would you describe this look?

The faux locs ponytail is perfectly described as a dreadlocks already made ponytail made on a drawstring that makes it easy to wear. It’s a handmade ponytail.

I love the length, the thickness, the weight (it’s weightless), the drawstring, the look, and how it sits firmly.

Any advice for someone considering it?

It’s made with crotchet dreadlocks and sewn on a drawstring net cap. How to style the hair: Pack your hair doughnut and using a rubber band. Gel the hair neatly and do a baby hair on it. Install the faux locs drawstring. Use any decorative piece in styling it. Arrange it.

How would you describe this look?

The look is called faux locs with feathered tips. It is an edgy and fun protective style. It is the perfect vacation hair! It is low maintenance and easy to style. My favorite thing about doing faux locs is the transformation effect. It can give almost any woman a completely different look.

Any advice for someone considering it?

I would first and foremost recommend the client use their favorite oil with an applicator bottle and apply it directly to the scalp. My personal favorite oil to use is Peppermint and Aloe Scalp Tonic from Design Essentials.

I always tell my clients to purchase long loc sleeping caps because they prevent clients from putting tension on their hair at night.

I do not suggest clients with relaxed hair get this style unless there is a significant amount of new growth.

The key to beautiful faux locs is purchasing soft hair to use when installing them. The softer the hair the better the outcome.

How would you describe this look?

This look is regal, fun, and earthy. What I love about faux locs is that it doesn’t have to be put together. To me, it looks better once the style has been worn for some time. The older it gets, the better it looks. It’s freeing and connecting in a way that leads to conversation, no matter the race.

Any advice for someone considering it?

It’s universal. Depending on the hair texture and length, there are different sizes and length for this particular style. As a hairstylist, I fill the person’s hair out first before installing. If your hair is finer, I wouldn’t advise you to keep the style in for a lengthy period of time. But if your hair is courser, 2 months should be fine.

To moisturize and condition the hair so that it’s not drying out, a spray water bottle with leave in conditioner, jojoba oil, and coconut oil should be fine to spray onto the locs. Oiling the scalp with Jamaican black castor oil, Pink Oil Moisturizer, or any scalp oil moisturizer should also be fine.

How would you describe this look?

This look is the perfect faux locs extensions with an island twist. Mermaid goddess locs give you the ultimate protective style which permits hair growth, strengthens hair follicles, as well as protects the hair from heat damage and breakage.

I love that it is different from the traditional faux locs in a way that draws the attention with its wavy and curly tips. The addition of hair yarn tops off this unique look.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Make sure the stylist is using human hair, for the synthetic hair tends to irritate the scalp. Also, groom the locs with mousse, Jamaican castor oil, and also touch up the edges with Eco Styler or some form of edge tamer.

Crochet Faux Locs

How would you describe this look?

This style is known as Faux Locs, a protective hairstyle that gives you the illusion of real locs temporarily by completely covering your real hair.

Usually, clients who are transitioning or growing out their hair naturally look for this type of style, and this can be worn for at least 6-8 weeks.

Any advice for someone considering it?

Know that this is a three-step process. First, hair needs to braid down, then wrapped, and then sealed at the ends, so be mindful that it takes a longer sitting time for this hairstyle.

The outcome is beneficial because it’s easy to manage, and it produces a lot of hair growth. It’s perfect for fitness lifestyles because it’s durable. It’s also flexible in styling options. You can put it into a bun, ponytail, or braided styles. Anyone can wear this style as long as your hair is in good condition.

Products that you can use are oils to keep the moisture in your hair. Less is more when considering product buildup.
