What is the best way to curl locs?
Greetings,
Using the curling tong does not work for me, neither does plaiting it for a week and putting the hair in hot water?
I would like a nice curly style?
Help please?

Re: What is the best way to curl locs?
Soft foam rollers work for me. But my go to for curly styles is to bantu knot my hair. The smaller the sections knotted, the curlier the hair. For loose curls I go with larger sections.
Hope that helps.http://www.nappturality.com/forum/pi...972292&thumb=1 http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/...58/184/7ba.gifRevelation 21:4 - Psalm 51 - Psalm 121 - Ephesians(All words typed above are my experience and/or opinion, please feel free to agree or disagree....just please, do so without malice.)Loc'ed: 19/NOV/08 - Love ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NP Convert since 06/08

Re: What is the best way to curl locs?
Have you tried using pipe cleaners?
Also, regarding braiding, why would you put your braids (plaits) in hot water? I'm only asking because I'm not used to that method. I have, however, had success with braiding my locs overnight and taking out the braids the next morning."Coal mining is harder [than writing].

I suggest a rod set or pipe cleaners.

Re: What is the best way to curl locs?
I really like using lockloops because they are comfortable to sleep in.

Re: What is the best way to curl locs?
I like locloops with plain water in a spray bottle. Going to sleep with them has been a dream. And the curls are not bad either.

Re: What is the best way to curl locs?
It's been a long time since I've curled my locs, but when I do it, I use pipe cleaners. Bantu knot-out is a close 2nd.
