Microlocs
Very small locs, often hundreds on one head, usually started and kept by interlocking.
Also: micro locs
Microlocs are locs much thinner than usual, so a head may have several hundred. Their small size means they can be styled almost like loose hair, in buns, curls and updos. They are usually started with interlocking or small braids and take many hours to install. Some systems for very small locs are trademarked and taught to certified locticians. Thin locs need care at the roots, as they can weaken if maintained too tightly.
