I am getting loc ext soon. Thats my preference. Anyway, you do beautiful work. Absolutely beautiful ❤️😍 thank you.🙏

    I am just trying to figure out what's the minimum length of hair, in order to get loc extensions. I had a high-top fade for several years and now I am growing out the sides and the back of my head. Right now, there's 2 1/2 inches of growth. Long enough to flat twist. But I am unsure if I could start the lock extensions now.
