Your starter method and loc size are selected around your texture, density, lifestyle, maintenance preferences, and long-term vision. The goal is a balanced foundation that can mature beautifully over time.
Starter decisions are made with the mature result and the hair supporting it in mind.
What this means
Starter Locs
Starter locs are the beginning stage of a traditional loc journey. The foundation may be created with comb coils, two-strand twists, braids, or another method selected according to the hair, lifestyle, and desired mature locs.
