Today I'll be trying the modern method of adding in knotless soft locs into my 12-yr old daughter Paisley's natural hair. To see exactly how I did this, be sure to watch the video!

I started by buying soft locs (sometimes called Hawaiin locs) and textured hair at the beauty supply store. We had previously washed and detangled Paisley's hair to prepare for the new style. We also used a blowdryer to stretch her curls to give us some additional length to work with.

Most of the products I used come from my Hairitage by Mindy haircare line found at Walmart, CVS, Kroger, or HEB (wet products, brushes, combs, heat tools, accessories... and they can all be found via the link in description box above). I then begin to style by parting hair (we used a box braid parting pattern). I did four boxes on the bottom row, and then alternated part lines from there. Once I had it all parted, I gelled the part lines and created braids in each section. The braids only needed to go down about 2-3 inches, and the rest of the hair can remain undone.

Then using a crochet hook, I went through the real braid at the bottom, then again at the top, which created a loop of hair with her braid. Then I took the crochet hook through the top of the braid by the root again, but this time... I attached the fake hair to the hook and pulled it back thru the top of the braid. That's the hardest part for sure!

At this point, all I did was twist the fake hair around and around at the base of the hair and down the soft loc until it covered her real braid and blended into the soft loc. Continue this pattern over and over until you are done.

At the end, I used a steamer to soften the locs by steaming them a little and relaxing the hair. To prevent burns, please be careful not to get too close the the scalp OR use your hand to block the scalp!

Paisley loved this hairstyle and the fun LONG locs she got to wear! After about 4 weeks, we removed these locs. I did notice that I had to be SOOOOOO careful taking them down as it is super easy to cut her real hair in the process. So please be careful there too!
