Yes, you can start locs with relaxed hair, but here’s what you need to understand: ⚠️ Your texture matters – Relaxed hair won’t lock the same way natural hair does. The locking process may take longer and require more maintenance. 🌀 You may need to transition – Some choose to start with new growth only or gradually trim the relaxed ends as the locs mature. 🧶 Loc method matters – Methods like interlocking, instant locs, or starter loc extensions can work better on straight or processed hair. 💇
