1 Year + Blonde Loc Journey With Pictures and Videos

[@suney89]

I started my loc journey yesterday! In December i lost my dad suddenly and he had restarted his loc journey. We would always say that we’d start together but i was always scared, however last night i made the step in committing! His spirit will be with me throughout this journey and I’m so excited!

[@michelletaylor9916]

This made me cry I am so sorry but what your are doing in his memory is so beautiful to me.

Soooo we're going to just pretend her mom doesn't look like a sister ?! Um hello beautiful mom and good genetics! 😍

Lol thank you! She is beautiful in every form 💚✨

I came to say this. She is so pretty!!! Both of them are. Them good genes!

[@mybalancedlife7190]

They are both so beautiful! Yes, mom is definitely giving me sister.

[@snowflake9782]

Right!!! Black don’t crack

[@riturner]

You inspired my loc journey. Not because I wanted my hair to look like yours but because how much your journey seemed to have liberated your soul. I’m now 9 months in. Best decision I’ve ever made for my hair + spirituality. You’re beautiful. Your locs are beautiful. Your spirit is beautiful. Thanks so much for inspiring my journey.

[@WestIndieRay]

Brb cryinggggg 🥺❤️ so happy for you! Thanks for the compliments as well!

[@devonnaportwood327]

Y’all are two of my favorite youtubers 💕💕

[@Thisreadingcorner]

Yeah I got salon coils and then combed them out and did my own twists. Even though I have some sections that’s are too big, 18 months later I don’t regret starting them myself.

[@WestIndieRay]

I love this for you! Individual journeys! ❤️✨

[@wilmaty3771]

I took my coils out too and I’m think about do twists and this video gave me a little insight on using twist methods

[@jerrseyy1088]

“One of my greatest power moves of self acceptance and self love” My thoughts exactly when I locc’d 4 months ago. Feeling bold and beautiful AF. 🦄

[@marlenawright9501]

You inspired me to start my own journey. This is something that I’ve thought about doing for years but never did because for some reason it felt like a destination. And I felt like once i did it I would be stuck there. But doing it I realize it’s more of a journey than anything. I’m about to be 5 months in and absolutely no regrets. Started them myself and I’m maintaining them myself ❤️

[@WestIndieRay]

Yes! I love this so much for you! ❤️✨

[@ladawnmccrary9222]

I start my Loc journey now a month ago and you are such inspiration thank you. You are making this process easier for me and helping me embrace a beauty within that I never knew existed. Thank you

[@yolisazokufa]

I loc'd my hair in Oct 2020, letting my hair just be has been so much fun as well as rewarding to accept myself as I am. I overcame something I had doubted I would get through last year, I showed myself that I am stronger than I know, and so I decided to make a commitment to myself, to my growth and to my power. This is what this journey stands for for me --- growth and healing. When I look back I know I will be stunned at how far I've come, and when I look down I know I will be stunned at the growth and texture of my hair. I started following you because I was so struck by your energy and your authenticity. Your locs speak to your beauty, and I am so glad you posted this at this time.

[@yolisambelebele]

That’s so cool ❤️

[@shannoncurtis2107]

Love this

[@mislou100]

I didn’t do any part to ratio like how some KZbiners talk about, and my locs are Amazingly Beautiful. I love the way my locs naturally fall in place.

[@CurlMvrck]

SAME

[@NyssaSayWhat]

I love the bunching on your locs. It’s the whole reason I’m here 😭😭😭. But I do agree with your. Our loc journeys should be unique to ourselves. I’m looking to start by the end of this year. Never considered two strand twisting my own hair.

[@superflychic101]

Next month I’ll be one year loc’d, and I’m so excited that I had to circle back to this video. When I first saw this I was only a month in. I’m beyond appreciative of the inspiring and encouraging content. 🦄🦄🦄

[@julesartylife2217]

We come from different generations (and continents) but have a commonality in locs. I watched your videos right at the beginning of my journey and will continue to follow. I’m 4 months into my journey now and so wish I’d had the confidence to do it years ago. It’s inspiring to have such positive role models such as your beautiful self. And I’m referring to inner beauty my lovelie.

[@beedabee1221]

I’m really interested in locing my hair and I agree, everyone’s experience is different. That’s the beauty of the journey!

[@skholiwezondi986]

She said "Now today's a highly awaited, highly requested video" and I was like "you got that right 😁" you locs are beautiful 😍. Yesterday I did my two strand twists because I want to start my lock journey and I am so excited

[@ten891]

Omg I'm so glad you mentioned not having parts and doing them yourself. I'm about to be 5 months in & got really self-conscious about not having a part pattern & I did it wrong & will need to start over. Today, I love my babies & feel EXACTLY the way you do. It's a custom experience b/c I started & still do them myself & already get compliments and encouragement from ppl YEARS into their journey. It's super spiritual & empowering. And yours look AH-MAZING! 🦄🦄🦄

[@fabyoulust1126]

🦄 I totally felt when you mentioned how your locs were the best thing you did for yourself. I dreamed of myself in a goddess like state before I decided on my journey. I affirm every day now that my locs will be the start of me accepting a enhanced version of myself.

[@preciouslouis397]

I had been contemplating for YEARS to loc my hair and I finally did it in Jan 2021🥲 I can’t wait to see where this journey goes and thank you for being you💕 I love your videos🦄🦄🦄

Thank you so much for your support love ❤️ blessings on your journey!

Wow!! I just cut out 11 year old locs 4 months ago and miss them soo much. Your videos have made me go back. Thank you 🙏🏾😊

[@ashleyburks4639]

I'll make sure to watch you when I can because That is one Hell Of A HUGE STEP.

[@samira5647]

🦄 I started my locs by myself too, and always have people telling me to see a loctition. I retwist my hair, I crotchet my bunched ends, and I am enjoying doing MY loc journey. I feel more accomplished and proud completing it myself. Each to their own! Your locs are stunning ✨

[@joshuaross6980]

I love how natural your locs are. My locs are bunched up and how dimples but I love it. I don’t want them to look perfect. They’re beautiful being unique

[@ashlinelson6085]

You’re locs are exactly how I want mine to look. The color is PERFECT 🤎🤎

[@Sherloccandthegang]

Soo glad you ain’t listen to them haters, your ends are my favoriteeeee part of your locs. I’m kinda jelly of ya bunchy ends 🥺 it looks like we have a similar curl pattern but my locs don’t really look like yours 🥵 still I love mine 🥰🥰🥰 All the best wishes 💫

[@AshleyRey]

Yes to individualized journeys. This is why I appreciate you and your content so much.

[@WestIndieRay]

And I appreciate you love! 😘

[@StephanieOneLife]

Im coming up on 8 months loc'd and its my favorite thing that Ive done for myself. Everything you said was spot on.

[@sheniyaalbert6647]

What I absolutely love about your locs is that they’re not so uniform they just have their own unique look and it makes me really excited to start my own

[@AlyssaKapri]

Love this! After having my son, mama just didn't have time for whole wash days. lol I started my locs with 2 strand twists and I'm just shy 7 months in my journey. I started experiencing bunching on some of my locs and was a little concerned but I actually love the way they all look. After sitting with that, I figured my concern came from the "book" when really, if I was enjoying my journey, then there was no concern. Starting locs was one of my greater choices. I love it here!

[@Luv_Sug]

🦄 I’ve been binge watching your videos because I want to start my lock journey! I Love your videos & your hair is beautiful 😍

[@tsimmonds55]

I know a girl like that who always said you should go to a loctition because... I always heard blah blah blah after. I love my locs. I just made 10 months on the 5th and I have been wearing my hair wrapped up ever since it started getting cold like I've been doing since 2017. I do like my hair but its easier to deal with under the wrap because it doesn't look how i envisioned my locs looking hopefully it gets there by spring cause that's when it gets warmer in NYC and I plan on leaving the head wraps alone. I went through the stage of my hair doing whatever it wanted during these cold months while I've been wearing a head wrap. Your locs are beautiful and mine are beautiful and I like that it was all me.

[@deedeel5977]

I started my loc journey 2 days ago. I had the 2 strand twists. I am soooo loving the feeling of liberation that comes with them. My only regret is that I didn't do it YEARS ago. I love the colour, style and look of your locs 😍

[@billiehicks6587]

Since I just began watching you, it’s fun to go back and review your older vlogs. 🦄

[@justpassingthrough7437]

🦄🦄🦄🥰🥰🥰! I made plans to cut off my locks at the end of this year and get a weave for Christmas because my hair grows soooo slow. I'm one year and four months as of yesterday. this video is encouraging me not to give up just yet. Thank you!

[@janetvanklaveren5898]

Thank youu ssooo muchh for your inspiration! Never in a million years did I think I would loc my own hair and literally noone believed me, but thanks to your videos. Eventho it took me almost 12hrs to twist, im so grateful I did it myself, I literally feel like I have a personal connection with each of my 130+ locs. I’m now 2 weeks in and I realyy just let them do their own thing. And I feel soo free, confident and like a Goddess🥰🥰🙏🏽✨What a journey! peace & love, Queen❤️

[@Blktherapistmagik]

Thank you for this video, I started my journey after watching many of your videos, I am now 7 months loc’d and I love my locs and I have bunching as well but I love my hair so much I don’t care. I also feel the joy of caring for my own hair and not allowing anyone to put their desires for my hair onto my hair.

[@superflychic101]

I’m a month into my journey and I’m so glad that I found your page before I made the decision to loc my hair. The tonic and love potion work great for me and I feel like I’m losing my twist pattern already!! Thank you for the advice during your live and all the informational videos you’ve posted throughout your journey.

[@ambijai]

You inspired me to do mine myself. I found you when you were still rocking curls. I think it was your manifestation video. Thank you for posting this ❤️

What up OG! 😂🙌🏽 thanks for the support love ❤️

I started my journey because of you. Thank you you’re my Locspiration 🔐❤️

[@MorenaMami0803]

I started my locs in September 2019 and my daughter's in November of 2019. We both have lots of bunching. At first I tried fixing some of it but it's so time consuming, I decided to just leave it. We're both loving our loc journeys.

Taking complete control of your own hair feels so good in this loc journey for real

[@kenyascott1646]

I ran across your channel and I have to say HANDS DOWN you have been the most REALISTIC uniqueness about this journey. You have helped me to determine my approach on my individual journey. I feel so empowered to continue my process. I actually started with2 strand twists 8/21/21 and so eager to go through my process of being a loc'd DIVA! lol! 🦄 Glad I ran across your channel and looking forward to this experience!

[@pstreet3]

🦄 🦄🦄 thank you for this video!! I’m almost at a year in my Loc journey come March. My locs don’t look like “traditional locs”. I get discouraged sometimes because of it. Your video was a reminder that this is MY journey and MY locs will mature to how they see fit. And THAT is a beauty of this journey! 💕☺️

[@teonnel9612]

Had to pause the video to comment! I love that I found your video 💯 As I sit here twisting my hair I was getting so frustrated how my parts aren’t coming out straight but you solidified everything for me to keep going. It’s my hair and I’m so looking forward to the journey. Thanks for the inspiration Sis 🙌🏾💕

This is day 2 of my starter locs for me. I went to 2 people before to start them this month and it just didnt feel right. I had to start my locs on my own. That’s what makes the journey so special. To start them and maintain them on your own is so beautiful. (NOT BASHING PEOPLE WHO GO TO OTHERS TO MAINTAIN THEIRS)! I started my ex’s locs and my own :) btw your locs are so pretty and so are you.

[@miasosa6lackshadow519]

i am starting my journey due to watching your videos, along with just me being deeply invested in my spirituality. i also feel like you had a really good point with just trying to find your own inner and outer beauty with locing your hair. so, that lead me to take out all my piercings and start with a completely bare face- to find the true outer beauty within myself as well as just locing my hair. an finding the true inner beauty by just mediating to my higher self and just finding and being more positive towards my calling. thank you so much for sharing your journey with us and for just being a very genuine and positive island woman. your videos have given me so much empowerment within myself and for my journey to come!

My 9y/o Daughter's Father passed away in May and he wore locs. We've been discussing it for months as she has alot of hair but is very tender headed. I then started getting curious for myself as my brother also has back length locs. Then your video pops up on my timeline and you're making me want to meet that part of myself with my daughter. Definitely subscribing and will be checking for alot of points of reference 🤣

[@gabriellemeniefield2267]

I love watching your videos, you and your Loc journey has inspired me to start mine and it’s a bit shaky for me right now because my hair texture is so fine and my density is low so even at 3 months in I’m still having problems keeping at least 10 of them from coming undone. Since I’m starting this myself I want to continue to maintain them myself since my hair and texture is a little unique, I’m trying interlocking them until they can stay loc’d when I wash them. After they’re loc’d in I’ll go back to retwisting for maximum fullness. All that to say that you have really encouraged me to stick with it and figure out MY LOC JOURNEY and I am here for it... thanks girl 🦄🦄🦄

[@Jay-xo3in]

I started my loc journey about 3 weeks ago and your videos are so helpful and I love everything about your channel thanks❤️❤️❤️
