Who this haircut suits

The Locs can be adjusted in length and detail to match the look you want; use the catalog image as a reference.
Straight hair shows a sharper outline, while waves make the shape softer and more movable.
Braiding depends on hair length and density, and should avoid excessive tension at the roots.

These are general pointers. Choose the exact length and shape with your stylist, considering your growth pattern, texture and routine.

Styling options: step by step

Polished styling

1Apply heat protectant to damp hair.
2Create even sections and braid comfortably without pulling at the roots.
3Secure the ends with soft elastics or the intended finish.
4Let the hair cool and add a light finishing product if needed.

Natural texture

1Work a small amount of texturizing product through damp lengths.
2Lightly mist the lengths and smooth the sections with your fingers.
3Define a few pieces by hand to bring out natural movement.
4Finish with a light spray or cream without weighing the hair down.

The locs shape creates a distinct silhouette that can be adapted to length and texture. The catalog image shows one interpretation; length, layer density and accent pieces can be discussed with your stylist.

Consider natural growth patterns, density and the time you want to spend styling. The same silhouette can look different across hair textures.
