Mermaid locs installation is similar to traditional faux locs, but you add wavy bulk hair at the ends of your hair. Except, rather than goddess locs where it is just a smaller portion of wavy hair, you have a lot more wavy hair showing.

Some individuals opt to use wavy weft hair, they cut the portion they need with the weft threads and attach it to the ends of their locs using an interlocking needle. Or the other method that involves interlocking the hair to the ends of your locs, primarily stemming from the slippery nature of wavy hair and having natural locs.

This ensures a hassle-free installation, giving you captivating mermaid locs that stay put.

How long do mermaid locs last?

How long your mermaid locs lasts depends on several factors, including the type of hair used and the level of maintenance. When using synthetic hair, they typically last around 4 to 6 weeks. However, you can extend the style's lifespan by refreshing it. This process involves re-wrapping your new growth, trimming the ends, and adding new bulk wavy hair for a fresh look.

In contrast, mermaid locs made with a blend of human hair tend to last even longer than synthetic ones, often enduring between 6 to 8 weeks, with the added benefit of reusability. Choosing human hair offers a more long-term option. With proper maintenance and periodic refreshing, they can be worn for an extended period, essentially becoming a permanent style. The key to maximizing the lifespan of your mermaid locs is consistent care and upkeep, allowing you to enjoy this captivating style for as long as you desire.

How to remove mermaid locs?

If you interlocked wavy hair at the ends of your hair, locate the point where your natural locs begin and cut the mermaid locs from that point to where your locs end. This method keeps your natural locs intact and ensures a seamless removal process.
