Looking for a protective style that delivers maximum volume, texture, and styling flexibility? The sew-in faux locs + twist combo is trending—and for good reason. It gives the look of a full sew-in weave, but with the comfort and creativity of faux locs and passion twists.

Using our Water Deep Wave Bundles, Spring Twist Hair, and Marley Braiding Hair, you can recreate this gorgeous, full-bodied style that's perfect for any season.

💇♀️ Step-by-Step: Sew-In Locs With Passion Twist Finish

1. Wash & Prep Your Bundles

Start by washing the bundles to eliminate any residue and ensure a clean base for installation. Our Water Deep Wave bundles have a silky texture with minimal shedding, perfect for long wear.

2. Section & Part the Hair

Use the tail end of a rat-tail comb to section the hair, then refine the part with the precision tip. Avoid tugging with the sharp end on thick hair.

Stylist Tip: Go with medium to large parting for better weight distribution—especially important for long-lasting loc styles.

3. Install Marley Base Braids

Braid the hair using our Marley Hair, then begin feeding in Water Deep Wave hair as you braid down. Stack curls close together—10 to 13 per braid—to build the signature fullness of the look.

4. Wrap with Spring Twist Hair

Wrap the braid using Spring Twist Hair, starting with the short end and continuing with the long for extended wrap time. No specific technique is required, but the pinch method (wrapping with your thumb and index finger) works great for grip.

5. Add Passion Twists for Softness

This style isn’t just locs—it also includes passion twists for added texture and dimension. Start each twist with a few braid rotations at the root, then transition into a twist using Spring Twist or Water Wave hair.

Use clips at the root and midway down to keep hair in place while twisting.
