Hi everyone! Finding ways to style your locks can be a challenge sometimes. However, the challenge usually stems from lack of ideas, not the complexity of them. Here are some loc styles for medium hair, short hair and long hair.
1. 2 buns with rest down
Loc buns are always cute. This style is great for a fun, casual look; but can also work for semi-formal occasions if paired with the right outfit.
2. Sides pulled back with clip
This style is very easy to do and is appropriate in any situation. You can wear this to work, school, a fancy dinner, graduation. This is a style that can be dressed up or dressed down.
I love these octopus clips. They are great for locs and thick hair.

3. High bun
Messy buns are a favourite for most people, whether locked or not. They are super simple and don’t have to be done exactly right in order to look good. They are great for running errands, or if you’re in a hurry. You can even rock a loc bun as a way to combat the summer heat.
4. Front braided back with rest down
This is a great style for casual to formal occasions. In addition, plaiting the front of your hair after retightening helps it to stay neater for a longer period of time.
5. Front braided back with low ponytail
This is a variation of the previous loc style. It is great for the gym and other casual activities. You can wear this to work as well. It is also great for short locks because it’s easier to pull your hair into a ponytail with the front braided back.
6. 2 ponytails with rest down
This is a fun, youthful look. This is great for casual outdoor activities like walks in the park, or indoor activities like going to the mall.

Thanks for sharing these tips. My locs are so long and I didn’t know how to style them. This has been helpful.
I’m really glad you found this helpful! I totally understand. As my locs get longer I’m starting to realize it might be easier to style shorter hair.
