Faux locs: Kinky/Marley Hair vs. Yarn

*update


Hey dolls. I thought I'd make a post on Faux locs as a protective hair style as well as the difference between using kinky/marley hair or yarn locs to achieve them. I tend to switch up my hairstyles frequently, it's a bad habit of mine but all is fair when you know how to do your own hair :) ! I'm also that weird person who thinks of hairstyles months before they actually put it in, like I plan what hairstyle I'm going to do this month and that month. I'm not sure if that's weird or not, but I like to plan my hairstyles according to when I know I have big events coming up, a busy schedule, etc. So, since November I just knew Faux locs were going to be my next protective hair style. I normally do this style once a year with yarn but this time I started contemplating doing them with Marley hair. They seem to look a little more realistic then using yarn to wrap the hair. But then 4 days ago when I completed a Faux loc set on my mother using Marley hair, my mind changed. Again. Safe to say I'll be using my trusted yarn to complete this hair style once again and here's why. I also give the pro's and con's of using kinky/marley hair or yarn to complete this look. One day I'll do a Faux loc set using Kinky hair but not this time around.
