Facts On #KnottedLocs Created By #MelissaBlake my personalised Knotted Locs technique.

Knotted Locs is the healthiest way to wear #smallsizelocs.
Knotted Locs is small sections of strands created with precise and diverse fusion of knots. The results is small health dreads or locs with no fixed grid lines making Knotted Locs extremely adaptable and low maintenance.

Holes in locks have been eliminated with Knotted Locs which has meant, in five years of it's existence our #SmallSizeLocs are at their strongest.

When created and nutured correctly #smallsizelocks gives African Textured Hair complete maximum locs fullness.
With maximum fullness gained, the opportunity to wear our #SmallSizeLocs down with significant growth continually coming through, intensifies our satisfaction having chosen Knotted Locs. That's because we are experiencing a thickness to our hair we never thought was possible!

Knotted Locs exists because after 7 yrs of 100% interlocking I was fed up of my soft and some stubborn curly strands continually unravelling when wet.
I also discovered some strands are too rebellious when interlocked, after 7yrs of Sisterlocks some locs were still unravelling! Length was not very evident. These strands are usually thick and loose wavy, they look almost straight with a bend or two along each strand, cuticles appear to be smooth. These strands struggle with Sisterlocks and being interlocked. They never locked up.

Knotted Locs has been very successful with reducing unravelling with loose wavy thick strands.
Knotted Locs exists because it was time we gained a new hair locking method that was more resilient, adaptable to our lifestyle and grew with us staying strong and abundant through out our #smallsizelocks journey.

5 yrs on, Knotted Locs has significantly reduced unravelling to all areas of our strands including the soft and wavy African textured hairs.
Reducing unravelling with Knotted Locs means, we can wash our #SmallSizeLocs as often as we choose to. Flaking, dry scalp and dandruff issues have vanished! Our hygiene level practices have soured since converting our Sisterlocks to Knotted Locs! All scalp conditions have gone.

Knotted Locs has enabled all dry scalp conditions to be eliminated, simply because you can shampoo or thoroughly rinse your locs everytime your scalp begins to itch. Scratching your scalp is a signal to wash your locs.
Rinse Out Conditioners can be used on Knotted Locs, they help keep our #smallsizelocs separated for longer, try separating your Knotted Locs immediately after your conditioner rinse, like magic, each Locs separates, especially if you have been continually wetting, oiling and separating your growth. You will find rinse out conditioners are great for Knotted Locs!
Knotted Locs can be saturated in water every day. This means your #smallsizelocks can be successful separated whilst wet and in water.
African Hair Loves Water, it signals it's need for water every time water touches it. That's why it moves in moisture. Hydration is source of life for our curl strands. Knotted Locs makes 100% Hydration happens daily. With zero fear of our #smallsizelocks unravelling.

Oil helps keep water from evaporating from our curly strands, it enables our Knotted Locs to stay hydrated for much longer. It also encourages longer separation of our regrowth.

This successful practice of watering and oiling our Knotted Locs with no worries of our #smallsizelocs ever unravelling means, we do not have to re-lock our Knotted Locs often. 6-8 weeks can be too much for many sensitive heads. Leaving our locs alone is an important part of creating adaptable, strong and abundant #smallsizelocks.
Knotted Locs is the healthiest form of wearing #smallsizelocs because disturbance to our scalp and follicle roots is minimal and never re-locked tight or close to scalp because the knots don't move. During my teaching and re-locking sessions, I encourage room at the follicles base area of the freshly re-locked loc, so our scalps can breathe with ease.
With Knotted Locs, the knots stay locked in speeding up the locking process. This means my clients can swim next the day after their re-locking session and they can also wash their locs immediately if they so choose.

Knotted Locs needs 3 months growth before re-locking is due. The trimesteral rest, recovery and regeneration cycle is the only way to exist! Knotted Locs enables complete ease and scalp rest as it's only re-locked seasonally. We give nature the space to help nourish our scalp and our Knotted Locs is reaping the rewards!
Knotted Locs is the future for #AfricanHair and #SmallSizeLocks because you can choose to re-lock them when you are able to and that it is why it is perfect for Busy People. My clients sit in the chair 1.Summer, 2.Autumn, 3.Winter and 4.Spring. Four times a year. Actually 5 years on, and some of my clients have mastered separating their Knotted Locs with 4 months growth and therefore sit for their re-locking sessions 3 times a year! Results have been astounding, revolutionising our relationship with our African Textured Hair. It's never been so easy to live with our natural textured African Hair thanks to Knotted Locs!

He wanted to reduce the risk of his locs unravelling.

After 7 years of Sisterlocks, she wanted a better experience with Small Size Locs.

Knotted Locs can become more like traditional locs size though they have been created in a much smaller size. This is what happens when nature is given the space to help nourish & nurture your scalp.

African Hair is beautifully diverse, even on one head. There are various textures, strand thickness and thinness found amongst our heads and on one head. Yet, each head of African Hair Loves Water!

Knotted Locs is inclusive, very adaptable, and therefore sustainable all curl strand types loves my personalised knotting technique. Simply because I am eliminating unravelling and encouraging maximum hydration, while decreasing re-locking cycles for everyone. Putting our follicles 1st always leads to complete scalp rest, recovery and regeneration, this explains the significant density increase!
