Loc Maintenance: Threading loc thru yarn needle

August 28, 2009 By: admin Category: nappylocs latching tool

Click on link to view 4 loc tools presented on youtube.

Highlight of 4 loc tools: Which is best for you?

THIS WILL NOT WORK ON SHORT OR THICK LOCS DO NOT TRY TO ENLARGE THE HOLE IT WILL BREAK!!!

Part 2 of how to thread your loc through a yarn needle. Use the latching point method that works best for you.

Although the hole is smaller than the nappyloc tool once you get your loc in there it’s not coming out until your ready, which means no rethreading!!

USE ON WET HAIR UNLESS YOU HAVE VERY SMALL LOCS

Fixing the “Y” with latched locs

August 28, 2009 By: admin Category: nappylocs latching tool

This is a tutorial on how to close the gap you get when you go through the same spot twice when latching your locs. I, personally, use the nappylocs tool. But this same method will work whether you use a latch hook, a crochet hook, a bobby pin, whatever you personally use to latch.

Loc Maintenance: Interlock w/ a yarn needle

August 28, 2009 By: admin Category: nappylocs latching tool

**Click on vid response for look at 4 loc tools presented on youtube**

THIS WILL NOT WORK ON SHORT OR THICK LOCS DO NOT TRY TO ENLARGE THE HOLE IT WILL BREAK!!!

I have interlocked my loc’s for 3 months using a yarn needle. I got the idea from a Loc-Key video which is a tool simular to the nappyloc tool but looks more like a needle.
I already had a yarn needle so I gave it a try, and I’m satisfied!!

It’s not hard to master the technique. You thread your loc like a piece of yarn which is the same thickness as our loc’s. USE ON WET HAIR ONLY UNLESS YOU HAVE VERY SMALL LOCS.

See part 2 video for actual pictures on threading your loc.
