Love the bun!

My hair sucks up water quickly, and dries very quickly. I can have soaking wet hair and after towel drying to get most of the water out, it dries in like an hour. I think that makes me high porosity? I find it very difficult to keep my hair moisturized and I find all of the social media recommendations I hear (no oil, no conditioners, just spray your hair with rose water and aloe juice and love) don’t work for me. When I do that my hair is dry AF and crispy.

Dont stop your channel man lol. We appreciate your content. Been watching for years as if i have them... but no doubt... i think ill start this month if i can get squeezed in.

I just started my braidlocs. I DIY them last night. When should I do my first retie/wash. Also, what products should I use to nourish my hair.

The braids adds character imo

No fr cause I did mine yesterday and I’m already saying it🫣😭

Will it get thicker over time just like starting with two strand twist ?

love your videos!! please clarify : You mentioned not going into the same whole twice. Firstly, do you mean twice *in a row * ? Secondly, if you meant to avoid going into the same whole twice does that mean if you're doing two sets of a 4-point rotation, you would do 3-6-9-12 and then 4-7-10-1? This part really stumps me. Everyone says don't go into the same whole but doing 3-6-9-12 over and over again, is the same hole....

I got tired 😩

😁

Please help. I have to do my first retie but my hair looks bulgy at the last point of my braid loc and when I tried to retie one loc, it just looked bulgier...I don't know if you get me.

Thank you for sharing! I'm going to try this today.

Your hair is beautiful

How long did it take for you to grow your hair this long?

I agree with you ❤❤.

This is my third journey. I love my size but I did the coil method they are unraveling I’m about to take them out n braid them 1 by 1.

my style is anything infront of the ear is not allowed to grow beyond eye brow length, then the back is free to grow as along as it wants. i feel like as a man when I have long hair it shouldn't hang in front of my shoulders but can hang backwards no problem

whats the update? how have you dealt with it?

I think a lot of the things the loc community recommends (no oils, no conditioners, no this, no that) are detrimental. I am a semi-freeform, and my hair is thriving again since I reintroduced a cowash I used before. The only difference is that now I dilute it a lot more. And you are right, I have gone back to using a light leave-in spray moisturizer that I used before loc'ing. Can't believe everything you hear out here. You gotta do what is best for your hair!

Great banger. Im Almost 3 months microloc'd. Im seeing budding now! No turning back now!

Where did you buy that too

Do you just let braid locs grow out naturally even if it frizzes and there is new growth or are you supposed to interlock/retwist them every now and then? If so how often?

Is it easier to take down if I decide to not want locs anymore?

You are so attractive. Those locs are fire!

My thing is …I want mine to have some of the attributes of twists locs and braid locs 🤦🏾‍♀️ I want the uniformed look that braid locs give but also a full look because my hair it thick but a lot more denser than it used to be ..I’m not too sure how it would look all braided up in the beginning…but then my hair type is 3C and getting twists they may unravel

I figured it out once you said you bring the locs UNDER lol, it’s not perfect but it’ll be a good enough braid for my birthday 😭

David I have a question. What about braid locs started with extensions at the end of the persons hair (not root). Will the extension (human hair) stay skinny and their hair mature? Do you think there would be unevenness in density? My fear with the extension is my hair going through a process but the extension isn’t.

I’m a perfectionist but I am not a fan of the plucked chicken look. I embrace the light fuzz.

Hi! I’m about 1 year and two months in, I just started doing my own reties and changed from what my loctician had been doing (which I’m assuming is 4 point) to 2 point rotation in hopes to achieve a fuller look since I felt that my locs were thinning throughout the shaft. Would retwisting also help my locs thicken up?

If I was to restart my locs maybe I would do micros but right now I only have somewhere between 170 and 200 locks and I can only imagine how frustrating maintenance would be with 400 more lol! Although I've gotten pretty efficient at separating the roots and braiding my locs after I wash them so they can dry over night. I actually got a compliment on. My twist out look earlier today

Your hair looks great.What is the plastic thing you are using ?

Well do your hair frizz up now I am trying not to do my hair until December and I will be loc 2years

Thanks for sharing 🫶🏾

thank you

I started my dreads with braids locs two years ago and they came out nice ! Braids hold better for my texture of hair ! I used a crotch needle at the ends after a few months of using rubber bands. Took a whole year for them to start looking like dreads, but I was happy with the results !! Unfortunately I will be starting them tomorrow (cut them off ) to restart ( had a few bad hair cut experiences) 7:56

very true one loctician trimmed my locs and 5 of them had just a strain of hair holding them together

I’m looking to start braidlocs. Leaning team grid, but I’d offset the grid similar to a brick pattern. That way its still organized, doesn’t line up too perfectly.

My son has starter locks, he’s on week 3 but has severe dandruff and very thick flakes on his scalp.. Will this process help to remove those? He’s starting to reconsider his lock journey so I’m trying to keep it alive in him!

Your hair looks great. I love the cut. 💕💕💕

I do a lot of dancing, and hairs keep getting all over my face, which is quite irritating. So, I started using the littleextrraa neatfix hair finishing stick. It’s only been a week, and I’m quite happy with how it holds my hair without making it hard or oily. Additionally, it’s super easy to apply. I’d say, forget hair gel-neatfix is the latest thing for girls!

So glad I found your channel…team no grid 🌸

I loveddd RENT so nostalgic

Does it matter if we do this method on damp (after washing) or dry locs?

Beautiful explanation

Thank you 😊

Thank you😮‍💨❤

Oh man my heart hurts right now I was hoping to get a length check to see that you got an under cut and now your cutting it shorter and watching you do this is making me nervous 😬

I’m in the 3b hair type family my hair is fine and my natural curls are loose so I will still have to braid and band and I’m not going to wash my hair right away.

I watched the pros and cons video your speaking of and I wanted more in depth/details which is why I’m here I’m about to install my own braid locs this coming Monday. And my cousin is going to help me install them and she was asking if she should braid them tight or looser does it loc any faster or slower depending on how tight the braid was originally braided.
