Retwist

58 Listings
A retwist keeps your roots neat as your locs grow. Most people book one every four to eight weeks, and in the UK a wash-and-retwist usually runs from around £30 to £80 depending on your hair and length. Some locticians palm-roll, some go gel-free — here’s the difference, and how to find someone you can go back to.

Starter Locs

52 Listings
Starter locs are the very beginning - the first install that sets up how your locs grow. Most UK locticians start them with comb coils, two-strand twists or interlocking, and a full head usually runs from around £100 to £400 depending on your length and the method. Below, what each method involves and how to find someone who does them.

Microlocs

25 Listings
Microlocs are smaller and more numerous than standard locs - more to style with, but a longer install. In the UK a starter set usually runs from around £400 for shorter hair up to £800 for longer, depending on grid size and method. Sisterlocks are a specific branded version of the same idea. Below, what to expect and how to find a specialist.
