About this style

Why book butterfly locs at Antwerpen Braiders?

Butterfly locs are the boho cousin of faux locs — wrapped with intentional loops and texture for a distressed, free-spirited finish that looks like you've been wearing them for months.

We use a water-wave fibre that holds the distressed texture and lightens the overall weight of the install.
