Starter locs are the initial stage of a dreadlock hairstyle. They're essentially small, tightly coiled sections of hair that are the foundation for future dreadlocks. Over time, these coils will naturally mature into the more defined dreadlock style.
Comb Twists: A comb is used to twist and coil the hair sections.
Interlocking: This method involves using a crochet hook to guide your hair through itself in specific directions; to form an instant tying pattern mimicking a naturally formed loc.
Crochet: Divide hair into small sections and twist or coil each section to create the initial shape of the future dreadlocks. Using a crochet needle a weaving pattern directs and forms the hair instantly to a matured loc.
