Faux locs

Temporary locs made by wrapping extension hair around braids or twists.

Also: goddess locs, temporary locs

Faux locs look like locs but are temporary. The wearer's hair is braided or twisted, and then extension hair is wrapped around each braid to form a loc, or ready-made locs are crocheted in. They last a few weeks to a few months and are then taken down. Goddess locs leave curly ends loose; butterfly locs are wrapped loosely so they look distressed. They let people wear locs without committing to permanent ones.
