Loc Retwist: How Often Should You Get One?

Retwisting keeps new growth neat and locs defined — but retwisting too often can stress the roots. The right rhythm depends on your hair.

Signs it is time

  • Visible new growth at the roots
  • Locs starting to merge at the base
  • You want a crisp, fresh look for an event

Avoid over-retwisting

Retwisting very frequently can thin the roots over time. Give your locs time between sessions and avoid pulling them into very tight styles.

Between appointments

Keep your scalp clean, dry your locs thoroughly after washing and cover them at night.
