I've got quite a bit of loose hair coming off my locks. How can I work it back in?

The easiest and most effective way to get stray loose hairs back into your lock is to palmroll while damp with Locksteady Tightening Gel. If you aren't into using product, go ahead and palmroll when wet anyways - you'll get the most bang for your buck. When hair is wet it's very elastic, which makes it easier for you to control the shape of your locks as time goes on - particularly useful in cases where locks are bunched up or kinked.

For larger amounts of loose hair with free ends (as in, the loose hair isn't attached at both ends to the dread, like a big bubble) you can backcomb it when it's dry and then palmroll it back into your lock with a little wax. For bubbles, you can use a very fine crochet hook to pull the hair back into the lock from the opposite side. (If you use a large hook, you will simply create a hole for more hair to escape out of. )

If you aren't comfortable tackling any of your dread issues yourself, the Lock Shop is here to help. Give us a call at 1 877 566 8748.
