Register Your Child to Become Our Next Featured Kidz-N-Locs Kid!

NOTE: At this time, we are only accepting submissions for locked tweens and teens (ages 10-18) until further notice!

We are ALWAYS looking for more children with locs to be an inspiration to other kids.  If your child with locs has a photo on this site (or even if not - currently we need more tweens/teens than anything) - please take a few moments to register so we can feature your child.

There are a series of "interview" questions we like to ask the children just to give them a "voice" and allow other kids to hear what's on their mind concerning their locs and reactions to their locs, etc. If your child is fairly young and unable to answer the interview questions, we will interview you, the parent on their behalf!

If your child does not currently have a photo on this site, please submit one along with the form/interview and please remember, at this time we REALLY need more 'tweens'/teens than anything! Thanks!

Just copy/paste the following into an email, answer the questions and send it to me at: info@kidznlocs.com . To submit the photo (s), just send it in the same email as the form in .jpg or .gif format.  Please be patient as we have others on the "waiting list" to be featured.
