How long should my hair be to start locks?
We’ve had reports of people starting successful locks with as little as three inches of hair. You’ve got to work a little harder to keep those little guys together, but the bonus is that the true dread isn’t the hair you’ve tangled, but what’s growing out at your roots and knotting up – so you’re really getting a head start!
However, if you want to get your locks started in the Lock Shop, you'll need at least 6 inches of hair. |
