After you finish putting you hair in single plaits, count each plait, and that will give you an idea of how many loc extensions you'll need to purchase to give you a full head oflocs.

How long does my natural hair have to be to install legacy loc extensions?

Our loc extensions can be installed on any hair type. For a proper installation, you need at least 3 inches of new growth.

How do you install loc extensions?

There are many different methods to installing loc extensions. The best thing to do is to consult with a local loctician who specialize in installing loc extensions. Also, YouTube has some great tutorials on how to install loc extensions.

Can I install the loc extensions to my existing locs?

You can add legacy loc extensions to your existing locs for more length or to repair broken or thinning locs.

How can you tell the difference between human hair loc extensions & synthetic loc extensions?

The best way to determine if your loc extensions are made with human hair, you can perform a burn test.

Human hair burns slowly and gives off a strong smell similar to hair being burnt by a hot comb or flat iron. Human hair will burn into ash balls and crumble between your fingers.

Synthetic hair will burn out quickly, and give off black smoke. Synthetic hair burns into a ball and hardens when cool. Synthetic hair has a off putting smell of burning plastic.

Does legacy loc extensions go through budding stage just like natural grown starter locs?

Yes, Please be mindful that even though the extensions are crochet to resemble mature dreadlocs, the extensions are not mature internally. It takes time for the extensions to mature internal & external just like natural starter locs. After being washed & conditioned the extensions will slightly swell just as natural locs would, so no need to worry,  the extensions will still remain intact. For the first couple of months please do not handle extensions aggressively when wet, this may weaken the extensions over time.

 How to care & maintain curl pattern for Loc extensions with coil or curly tips?

If you do not maintain curl pattern 1-2 times a week within the first few months, the curl pattern will eventually look distressed & form into a loc.

So the solution to detangle & define curl pattern is to:

•  Make sure locs or curly ends are wet or damp 
•  Hold loc right above where curl pattern starts & slowly & gently detangle with fingers 
•  For best results long lasting curl definitions, use a small amount of Legacy Curl & Coil Define Gel by working gel throughout the curly ends with fingers until smooth & easy to maneuver through.

How to minimize shedding on loc extensions with coil or curly tips?

Our Legacy Loc Extensions with curly ends are high maintenance. Fusion locs & goddess locs will have minimal shedding until locs are matured.

After installing loc extensions with coils or curly ends, DO NOT AGGRSSIVLY COMB TO DETANGLE. DO NOT AGGRSSIVLY PULL ON CURLS DURING DETANGLING. Aggressively detangling curls will only pull out stands of hair that has not been matured internally, which will eventually cause excessive shedding & thinning to the loose curls over time.
