    I stopped doing hair years ago, but someone tried loc extensions on my husband hair and did it incorrectly. Your videos helped me to remove, make, and attach loc extensions on his hair. It came out amazing. Thank you so much for your videos and detailed instructions. I was always very meticulous and love that you are.
    ***question? How long before this can be washed?

    • @elainebellamy1128
      @elainebellamy1128 4 года назад

      So I can’t undo mine, I tried and had to cut my extension off to fix a couple. If you do it properly, you are essentially weaving the hair strands together so that you can’t see where they are attached...so I think no. But hopefully the others can chime in.

I am a crafter, I spin wool and needle felt as well, I can appreciate your talent. I have big bags of sheep's wool, that I will probably never spin or felt-it is white, but can be dyed any color,if you are interested let me know.

      Sarah Marie because I do so many, I don’t but I’d say 100 small short would need about 5-6 packs

      Irene Paul in most case yes you will lose hair. This method is / should be considered permanent. When using the dark human hair it styles like your own hair. ie curls, color. It also cause more$$$ be prepared for big difference in price for human afro hair. My clients are shocked.

    So it's just a back & forth like a pull & tuck & it'll loc them together? Is the hold really good?
