you could make a perler and iron it so it sticks together but the holes are still visible, and thread a ribbon through two separate holes and then tie it to your hair? I don't have locs, but my friend does and this method worked for her, but everyone's hair is different and its fine if this doesn't work 4 u!! /gen

I don't have locs, but bobby pins and rubber bands might work? As in, you could glue charms or sew charms onto things like bobby pins n rubberbands! Pretty sure rubberbands would work, they're fairly easy to get charms onto and you can tie em onto hair fairly easy too! Good luck!

@Sleepy_Loss: hi, i'm back! i did some digging and thought of a potential idea? i found out about loc jewlery, specifically the beads and cuffs that can be worn on locs. i guess my idea is to use that as a basis, and maybe glue perlers on the cuffs? so you would take a standard lock cuff, then glue a star shaped perler to the front of it, as an example. i'm not entirely sure that would work, but i hope you are able to figure something out!!!
