#Interlocking Tool

This tool is amazing! If you are doing self retightenings, then this is not the tool for that. I have clients telling me it's difficult to use and I always say that it's not for self-retie. If you are a Loctician or someone who does someone else's hair, then snag you one. I have her link listed in my linktr.ee to make it easier to find. These are in high demand so order even if it's on backorder. It'll ship when it's restocked. #interlocks #locs #sisterlocs #microlocs #braidlocs #twostrandlocs #twostrandtwistlocs #starterlocs #dreadlocks #interlocking #interlocs #interlockingtool #nuloxx #nuloxxtool

What tool do I use for my self-reties? I use an interlocking tool/needle to do my microlock retie. In the past I’ve used a crochet hook, but in my opinion the interlocking tool is much easier and gets the job done a lot quicker. With the interlocking tool, I don’t constantly snag my hair and I don’t have to rethread the needle with each pass, which was the case with the crochet needle. Both will get the job done though. The ones I have came in a set of four from Amazon. There are 4 different sizes, so you can choose the one that meets your needs, and they’re only $6.99 🙌🏽 I’ll be happy to dm you the link to this set. Just leave a 🪡 or comment “needle” and I got you. You can also find the link on my Amazon storefront. #locjourney#locmaintenance#loctools#interlockinglocs#interlockingtool#microlocs#loccare

We have @paulmitchellpro educator, @nikeb_educating, teaching us a useful method for interlocking without the tool your guest's locs. ✨ A great way for less stress & tension! 🙌 Have you tried this before? #locs #locretwist #paulmitchell #loccare #retwistinglocs #retwistlocs #locticians #loctips #loctutorial #loctwist #combcoilstarterlocs #starterlocs #loccommunity #licensedtocreate #cosmetologist #hairstylisteducation #hairstylisteducation #saloneducation #hairstylisttip #cosmoprofbeauty

Why Do I Provide My Client With A “DIY” Tool & This Video If They Have To Do Their Own Reties For An Extended Amount Of Time? ✨What’s An Extended Amount of Time? Most of my clients are IN the military or affiliated with the military. This means deployments & or moving suddenly. Both of these situations will potential cause a “gap” in finding another loctician to do their maintenance. ✨So as a back up I provide my clients with a DIY Tool & this video. I give a few tips such as stopping when it gets too tight. ✨This gives me a peace of mind because if they had to do their own maintenance and I didn’t know, they will potentially put holes in their locs if they don’t have a simple example from someone they trust. ✨This is a PERK, to provide to your clients. This is something they tell future clients via word of mouth because you are always taking care of them outside of the chair. 💜Comment Your Thoughts Below 💜 #sixfigurestylist #sixfigureloctician #Sisterlocks #Microlocks #loctician #contentcreator #watchmework #realtime #interlocking #retie #locs #locrepair #clutchnloc #playbyplay #microlocs #tutorial #locmaintenance

If you’re always on the go, constantly working, or just don’t have time for monthly appointments, this is the method you should look into. 👇🏽 So what is interlocking? Interlocking is a maintenance technique where your new growth is pulled through the base of your loc using a small tool. Think of it like “looping” your new growth into itself so the root tightens and secures in place. Maintenance is needed every 8-10 weeks.

How To Retighten Your Locs Yourself (Interlocking Method) 🔒 1. Start with clean, dry or slightly damp hair No heavy oils or buildup — your parts should be visible. 2. Section your locs properly Use clips to separate each loc so you don’t join roots together. 3. Use a proper tool Latch hook or interlocking tool works best (avoid using random pins). 4. Follow one pattern only 2-point, 3-point, or 4-point — pick one and stay consistent (this prevents weak spots). 5. Go through the root (not the loc body) Insert the tool at the base and pull the loc through gently. 6. Don’t over-tighten Your scalp should not feel pain or tension — tight ≠ healthy. 7. Stop at the right time Usually 2–3 rotations is enough. Overdoing it can thin your roots. 8. Maintain your parts Always retighten within your grid to keep your locs neat. 9. Moisturize after Light oil or leave-in spray — don’t drench your scalp. 10. Take your time Rushing = mistakes. Do it in sections if needed. #locsinlagos #locsinlekki #lagoslocs #microlocsinlekki #sisterlocksinlagos

The interlocking tool does not really matter most times the technique is what actually matters. You can have the best tool and still don't know how to do it right. Follow @locsdayly @locsdaylyhaircare for more ##locsdayly #locs #barbershop #locjourney #locprocess #locbeauty #viral

When it comes to sisterlocks, the method for retie usually doesn’t change. It’s interlocking and the 3 or 4 points rotation. When it comes to tools used, they’re multiple and believe me when I tell you, a tool has nothing to do with how good or neat your retie turns out. It’s all about how good is the person using it

600+ locs and nearly 3 years of self-maintenance? We’re obsessed! 😍 Major shoutout to @tiniamarlena for showing our tools some love. Her Locsanity must-haves: ✨ Dual Ended Interlocking Tool – for when you need that extra speed. ✨ Curved Interlocking Tool – her #1 pick for precision and getting those reties perfectly tight without the snags. Maintaining that many locs is a workout, but you make it look effortless! Credit: Tinia Marlena . . . #Locsanity #LocJourney #LocCommunity

This mini latch fits right down the center of my baby locs! Don’t trip, I’m not interlocking. I’m creating sections by combining 2-3 of them with this tool. By pulling neighboring locs up through the middle of a loc. (sometimes a little woven) I can safely create bigger sections without manipulating the locs too much. Just ever so slightly to get my sections where I want them, and we’ll go from there. As much as I love crochet, I’ve been intentionally staving off from utilizing one on my own head. I learned from many a past sets that it’s nearly impossible to get the angles correct on one’s own head. Breaking hair is inevitable when crocheting our own locs. If ever there’s a crochet in this set of locs, it’ll be from a professional that I trust, or a student graduating one of my classes. That’s beside the point. Which isn’t really a point, it’s a journey. And I am stoked to share where mines been going lately. I’m also fairly positive this tool is quickly becoming my “go-to” tool for fine hair clients that crochet seems to break too much of. I am under the idea that most fine hair and fragile hair clients get healthier locs with finger manipulate maintenance rather than crochet. “Don’t take my word for it…” Happy loc’ing!
