Yarn Braid Extension

If you want locks and a.) have a perm and don’t want to cut it or b.) think you want them but are not completely sure consider starting your locks with yarn extensions. Yarn braids (a.k.a Nu Locs) are simply extension braids that are braided with acrylic yarn instead of synthetic hair. You really only need an inch or two of hair.

Comb coil locks can be started on hair that is coily to kinky. If your hair will form a natural coil you can usually start your locks this way. You are basically using a comb to coax a section of hair to form a curl. This method is great if you have hair that is really short. However, any length of coil hair can be comb coiled.

In this article I will be sharing with you how to start and maintain very small locks. Some might call it the Sisterlock-Look-for-Less.  However, if you read my article on that subject, you will know that I really feel that if you want Sisterlocks TM you should save your money and get Sisterlocks TM. That way you will not go through all the trouble of starting and maintaining small locks but feel bad because they don’t look the same.

Ok I am about to touch on a touchy subject. But I think it is important because a lot of people are trying to figure out whether or not to get SLs or the “Look for Less.”
