Well, it&#8217;s all about the hair. Unlike other hair types, butterfly loc extensions offer a mix of the hair textures of goddess locs and passion twists, giving you the spring of passion twists and the effortless look of goddess locs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to achieve butterfly locs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Like most protective styles, there are a variety of ways to install short butterfly locs, from the crochet method to the braid and wrap method. No matter which technique you select before installing your latest protective style, give the synthetic hair an apple cider vinegar rinse (especially if you have sensitive skin) to remove the coating on the hair. We recommend soaking the hair in one part apple cider vinegar with two parts warm water for 30 minutes to an hour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Butterfly locs inspiration\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:4px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1098\" height=\"1122\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/prose-blog-media\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.36.26-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17541\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.36.26-PM.png 1098w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.36.26-PM-294x300.png 294w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.36.26-PM-1002x1024.png 1002w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.36.26-PM-768x785.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1098px) 100vw, 1098px\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\n@tanesaluvluv\n<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:4px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:4px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"844\" height=\"1140\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/prose-blog-media\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.35.52-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.35.52-PM.png 844w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.35.52-PM-222x300.png 222w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.35.52-PM-758x1024.png 758w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.prose.com\/1\/2021\/07\/Screen-Shot-2021-07-23-at-3.35.52-PM-768x1037.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 844px) 100vw, 844px\" \/>\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\n@jassl_\n<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:4px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a trending hairstyle you want to show off?
