Women all around the world are trying this for a different look. However, what good is a protective hairstyle without proper maintenance? Faux locks are unique, so when it comes to taking care of them, they have their own set of rules.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s dive into some simple tips, to maintain and rock those gorgeous Faux Locks!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>1. Duration<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>This style can stay in for a long period. Usually, people keep it on for a month. We recommend you let it stay on for five to six weeks, post which you can get your hair re-twisted. After fifteen to twenty-two weeks redo the style completely or take them out.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>2. Washing <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>There are chances of dust or lint sticking to your locks, thus gentle washing is necessary. Keep minimal product use and co-washing is not required. We do not recommend washing these locs completely unless there is a need for it, as it can take a long time to dry up. You can clean your scalp with soap water or shampoo and rinse it off lightly.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3. Optimum Moisturising <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>There are many creams available, choose the one that suits your scalp.<\/p>\n<p>Oil your scalp on a regular basis to avoid dryness. Oil your locks occasionally to maintain its shine. Spraying rose water is an effective method of keeping the moisture level in check.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>4. Avoid Frizz<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>If you notice frizz or budding, trim it with a scissor. Nevertheless, lack of proper care can damage your hair, so make it a point to take care for these locks!<\/p>\n<p>Excited to try out a new hair weave?
