How to Tame Frizzy locs Using the Art of Palm Rolling

Palm rolling is a special technique that can be used to smooth out your locs. If you have frizzy locs, you may be wondering how to get the frizz under control. Stay with me and learn how you can have frizz-free locs in a few minutes.

Rocking Your Frizzy Locs

Sometimes it’s kind of cool to leave some frizz, but other times you just want your dreads to look more neater, like for example, if you’re wearing locs to an interview. Other than a quick fix, palm rolling should be part of your retwist routine if you want your locs to grow straight and smooth.

Will My Dreads Always Be Frizzy?

Keep in mind that locs that are not matured will have frizz because this is part of the locking process. However, with regular locs maintenance and palm rolling, your dreads won’t need that much palm rolling, except for the new growth, which it is recommended that you do whenever you’re doing a retwist.

Palm Rolling But Still Have Frizz?

There is a slightly different way to palm roll your locs if you’re trying to get rid of bumps and frizz. You would have to do the palm rolling method more briskly than the typical way, which is laying the loc in your palm and using both hands to roll it in the direction it was originally twisted.

Palm Rolling Locs To Get Rid of Frizz

To get your frizzy locs under control, use the faster palm rolling technique:

  • Make sure your hair is damp.
  • Start with one frizzy loc at a time.

  • Place the loc in your left hand and use your thumb to hold it in place.
  • Place your other hand over the loc, then start briskly rolling the loc in a back and forth motion until you reach the end of the loc.

  • Do the rest of locs the exact way until they’re all completed.
