Protective Styles: Faux Locs


When Ciara popped out on the scene with these gorgeous locs, eyes bulged, ideas spun and everyone asked, how can I get that look?! Truth is, the faux loc trend has been popular in the Black hair industry for quite a while. So if you’re considering the look, what’s right for you? Take it from me, a natural-hair cosmetologist who started with permanent faux locs three years ago, there’s definitely a recipe for success. But first consider the facts.
1. It can be Temporary OR Permanent
Faux locs come in a semi-permanent form in which natural hair is wrapped with yarn, synthetic or human hair. This temporary system lasts up to three months and is often called a protective style because it doesn’t require you to alter the chemical or physical state of your natural hair. The permanent form of faux locs is just as it sounds— permanent. So don’t enter into this venture lightly. For this style, human hair is wrapped around your natural hair or actual human hair locs are attached to your roots. That’s right, dreadlocks from another person’s head are attached to yours. Our natural hair can be re-twisted and turns into a loc as the hair grows.
2. Choose the Right Texture
Since you have human hair, synthetic and yarn fiber as options, be sure your stylist evaluates the strength of your natural hair. Yarn is the most lightweight and will not pull the hair down as much. Human hair is more dense and allows a bit more flexibility. Synthetic, which is the most popular, comes in numerous textures and offers the most flexibility, but is heavy. Be sure, if you opt for a large size faux synthetic loc, you leave perimeter hair strands out to alleviate hairline stress.
3. Pick Color Wisely
Faux locs are the ultimate protective style because they literally “loc you in” for a period of time. With that said, pick your color wisely! Warm brown and red tones are great for fall and often come blended with a dark brown or black. Going darker means it will blend well with your natural color and be less shocking of a transition .
4. Commit to a Manageable Length
The longer the loc, the heavier the load. Regardless of fiber, be careful when choosing the diameter and length of your faux locs. For ones like Ciara, go for a diameter of a dime or nickel and a length of just below shoulder length.

Read My Story!,,,SHARE WITH YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS

 
SHARE MY STORY....
Well I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. I am a 30 year old African-American female living in the Jacksonville, FL area. Within the last 2 weeks my life has turned upside down. I finally got the courage to leave an abusive relationship after 2 years trying to stay and make it work. The reason I finally decided to leave was because I was 16 weeks pregnant and started to think about my unborn child growing inside of me. I had a previous pre-term pregnancy and my little girl did not make it. God knows how bad I want to be a mother and I felt this was my chance. I wanted to protect myself and my unborn child. I decided on May 29th that this will be the last time you put your hands on me.

Then the worst happened, June 8th my water broke and I was devastated. I was scared, the doctors let me know that the outcome would not be good because I did not have much amniotic fluid left in my sack. I was released from the hospital June 9th on complete bed rest, and ordered to follow up with my doctor on Thursday. I prayed and prayed! I researched on the Internet and read some of the sad stories and also some of the happy endings. I still had hope. On Thursday, June 11th I went to my doctors appointment to be told the bad news that they would have to admit me to the hospital because infection had set in. I called my mom scared and crying because yet again the worse was happening.

I was admitted to the hospital at 2:00pm and the doctors let me know my options, I was scared. Then around 4pm with out being induced my contractions started and I knew I was in labor. My baby boy was born June 12th at 6:06am. I could not believe this was happening again. At 2pm I had to have surgery because I was not able to deliver the placenta. My mind and body was drained.

I let his father know on June 13th once I was released from the hospital and received more confirmation that he did not care about me. I felt so broken. Why me is what I kept asking myself.

I am putting this luncheon together to bring women together so we can empower each other and build relationships. We all go through different experiences in life, but our experience might help uplift the next person.

I look forward to hearing from you, #BabyLorenzoCarter and #BabyAlexandriaCorrinne will not let mommy stop helping others, even though I have suffered. My babies are looking down on me saying mommy you can do it, continuing helping others.
