boho locs go wrong in two places that have nothing to do with the hair itself: the crochet tool, and the gel. use a hook that isn't actually made for locking and you spend the whole install fighting loose fibers. use a gel that isn't rated for difficult to lock hair and you're refreshing your ends every few days instead of every few weeks.
we bundled the three things that actually matter for a crochet boho locs install into the Crochet Boho Locs Kit, for less than buying them separately.
what's actually in it
- Realistic 3X Ghana Afro Twist Bulk, 16 inches, pre-stretched crochet braid texture, 3 packs
- Qfitt Dreadlocks Crochet Tool, 1.0mm
- Jamaican Mango & Lime Locking Gel, 6oz
bought separately, that's $38.95. the kit is $33.99.
why these three and not just "crochet hair"
the Ghana afro twist bulk is pre-stretched specifically for a boho loc finish, so the texture is already doing half the work before you touch a hook. the crochet tool is a real dreadlocks crochet tool at 1.0mm, built to get the fine loose hairs actually locked in, not a generic latch hook that happens to also work for crochet. and the gel is a resistant formula made specifically for hair that's difficult to lock: no build up, no flaking, which is the difference between an install that holds and one you're touching up every few days.
that's the whole logic. it's not a discount for discount's sake, it's three products that were built to work on the same job.
about that three packs
this kit ships with three packs of 16 inch Ghana afro twist. that's a starting point for a medium density, shoulder length crochet install, not a guarantee for every head. going fuller or longer usually means an extra pack. if you're not sure how far three packs actually goes, our braiding hair buying guide breaks pack count down by style and length.
