Loc Repair & Extensions — PETALS Edition

Service Description

Loc Repair & Extensions is an in‑person advanced training focused on restoration, reinforcement, and the correct integration of dreadlock extensions. This session centres on repairing weakened, thinning, or broken dreadlocks and strengthening them using human hair. You will learn how to use hair to seal, reinforce, and stabilise compromised areas, as well as how to integrate pre‑made dreadlock extensions cleanly and securely. While synthetic extensions exist, this training works specifically with human hair dreadlock extensions, with attention to texture compatibility (commonly Type 4), blending, attachment methods, and long‑term durability. The emphasis is on clean joins, secure bonds, and techniques that protect both the existing dreadlocks and the scalp. This is not a retwisting or routine maintenance course. It is a specialist training in repair, reinforcement, and extension work.
