- For a good hairstyle to last longer it is very important to moisturize your scalp. Apply a good moisturizer, or a good oil before starting the procedure. A good moisturizing product helps to smoothen out your hair so that you can do your styling easily. Make sure to detangle your hair before getting started.
- Divide your hair into various small sections depending upon what kind of thickness you want in your crochet faux locs. Start braiding each section of your hair and braid all the way to the end.
- Now take a faux locs strand from the faux locs that you must have purchased from the market in your choice of style and separate it from the rest.
- Now using a sharp crochet needle/rattail comb or a crochet hook make a hole at the very end of your faux locs strand (the end which you will latch-up at the base of your braid near the scalp).
- Now using a crochet hook or needle attach the loop that you did earlier in your strand to the base of your braid near your scalp.
- Now take the remaining strand, untangle it and start wrapping it closely (tightly or according to you) around your braid all the way till the end of your braid.
- For a more defined look, seal the ends with a lighter (burn the ends) carefully without burning your natural hair.
- And Voila! your crochet faux locs are ready to rock.
