MICROLOCS & INTERLOCKING

Microlocs & Interlocking in Lawrenceville, GA

Smaller locs can create a detailed, refined appearance with plenty of styling versatility, but they also come with their own maintenance considerations.


Microlocs use smaller individual sections to create a finer overall loc pattern. Because each loc is smaller than many traditional locs, a completed set can include significantly more individual locs and requires careful, detailed sectioning.


Interlocking is a maintenance technique used to incorporate new growth into an existing loc through a structured process at the root. It differs from traditional retwisting and may be used for certain loc types, including many microloc maintenance routines.


Your natural hair, desired loc size, existing maintenance history, and long-term upkeep preferences can all influence which option may be appropriate for you.


Microlocs May Be Right for You If You:


  • Prefer smaller individual locs
  • Want a more detailed, refined appearance
  • Like the styling possibilities of smaller locs
  • Understand that more individual locs can mean more detailed maintenance
  • Are prepared to maintain new growth over time
  • Want professional, loc-focused care

UNDERSTANDING YOUR OPTIONS

Microlocs & Interlocking Explained

Microlocs and interlocking are related, but they are not the same thing. Microlocs describe a smaller loc style, while interlocking describes a technique used to maintain certain locs as new growth develops.


Interlocking works with the root area differently from a traditional retwist. The appropriate maintenance method can depend on your loc type, previous maintenance, loc size, and the way you want your locs maintained going forward.

Before Booking

Think about the size you want, your current hair or locs, how you plan to wear your style, and the level of ongoing maintenance you are comfortable with.


If you already have microlocs or interlocked locs, your previous maintenance history can also help determine which service makes the most sense moving forward.
