I can attest to all of these!!! I’ve only had mine 6 months and I’m so hair lazy it’s ridiculous! But I love it and now spend my extra time trying to perfect my make up routine!

[@SharidaM]

Yes! Lol

[@Ncognito579]

Lol if you were trying to sell sisterlocks girl you sold them 😅 I am getting them in April and I’m sooo excited but the other day I naturally was like am I really doing this ?? No going back you know. Well I’m soo thankful for this video . When you were talking about being and feeling flawless omg 😆 I was like okay here is my sign to move forward without any doubt at all. This is what I need in my life. I can’t tell you how many times I have been invited out randomly and wanted so bad to go and could go but declined because of my hair looking ridiculous 😚I’m soooo excited. Thank you 😊

[@Bfit6]

Your locs are BEAUTIFUL! Just got mine last weekend and they look sooo thin, scalpy and flimsy😔. I'm going to trust the process🙏🏾

[@SharidaM]

They all start out that way and won’t look like that for long! Hang in there 💕

[@LenasLovelyLocs1]

Hi Sharida! Yes! HIHS is sooooo real! I have it bad and it's affecting my locs😔 I most certainly didn't know you were an officer (thank you for your service ❤). I need to look for a back up...but it seems like it'll be 'cheating' on the one I have🤭😂 your locs are beautiful, girl! Thanks so much for this video ❤❤❤

[@SharidaM]

Definitely find you a back up lol. Don’t end up like meeeee! Thank you so much. My solution to HIHS is for me to bonnet whenever I am home lol

[@pheobiethomas9351]

Sharida!!!!! Girl, I'm crying!!!! This video is too adorable and funny! I love it!!!! Thank you for your candor!

[@SharidaM]

Glad you liked it!! 😆☺️💞

[@ronicayw2013]

Hi! I'm finally starting my sisterlock journey this coming Tuesday. I am nervous still even though I been researching and getting great advice! I love your videos. Thanks for sharing!

[@SharidaM]

Good luck!! Don’t be nervous lol. Relax and enjoy the start of an amazing journey 🥰

[@ronicayw2013]

@@SharidaM Thank you! And by the way Thanks for your service, would have never guessed that you were a police! 💙💙💙💙💙

[@Ncognito579]

😉 good luck 👍🏾

[@s.m.5614]

Hey 👋 I'm 1 1/2 yrs in and no where near loc'd. Love watching your videos. Love your passion for scents and your hair. 💚💚💚

[@SharidaM]

Thank you so much!!

[@TheUnicornQueenT]

Yes! I'm 5 days Microloc'd and I definitely have Hand In Hair Syndrome now. I just keep touching and looking at them lol

[@SharidaM]

Eventually it will subside but it took months for me 😂

[@jnina913]

I’m 5 months today. And you’re right when it comes to people stopping you whenever and wherever to talk about my hair. I was at the hospital and they started talking about my hair.

[@SharidaM]

Yes lol…any and everywhere they are coming with questions 😂! Happy 5 months!

[@rhondareeves5755]

Hi Sharida. I love your locs. Your type is my goal. My hair is fine and and sim-straight. I thank you so much for your information.

[@jenbunny1984]

Happy Sunday Sharida! Thank you for the information. I have micro locs and learning some techniques. 😁

[@SharidaM]

You are so welcome gorgeous 💕

[@ladylove3870]

I just had my locs installed 2 months ago. The only way to keep my hands out my hair is to keep my bonnet on while at home.

[@SharidaM]

Yep same lol.

[@PHATGrace]

😂same. I just had my hair loc’d a few days ago. I’m not the only one with the HIHS, my whole family wants to touch my hair, especially the children 🤦🏽‍♀️. So I have to keep my scarf on when around people.

[@MissPrisyBaby]

My sister locked her hair this Christmas and i immediately remembered you. Happy new Year Sharida💕

[@SharidaM]

Happy New Year Prisy! What type of locs did she get? I'm so excited for her!

[@livjefferson]

Sooo where did you get that fabulous necklace sis?!? I need all the deets! lol 😂

[@SharidaM]

www.nirvanawild.com/ She has this one back in stock!

[@cynthiayeldell4147]

Just realize everyone has a journey that is their own. Don’t expect your hair to do like anyone else’s cause it won’t. Enjoy each day of the journey. I am 5 1/2 years locked. Covid hit, I lost my locitican because she was unable to continue doing hair. Finding another locitican was very hard but I found one and after losing some locs we’re rolling again.

[@SharidaM]

Yes I totally 💯 agree, everyone’s journey is their own.

[@CrystalDivaLevyNoPainNoBeauty]

I love your hair! Your sisterlocks are so beautiful. I am natural but getting a bit bored. Not sure i can commit to sisterlocks yet but will admire from a far. I was laughing hard when you said mid arrest you are getting hair questions😆

[@SharidaM]

😆 People will ask questions anytime anyplace lol! never experienced anything like it before lol.

[@marlerica]

Funny, ill be 2yrs locked in March and I've never experienced the hair bulb issue. Girl, you didn't when you mentioned not seeing growth. Feels like I've been the same length 4ever. Thickened up but I want more hang time lol

[@SharidaM]

Yeah I'm like...I need to hit waist length in 3 more years lol.

[@angelamiles9227]

You have some good videos and topics. I watched your sisterlock establishment video about a month before my establishment. That next week I got my highlights done and it's been nothing but great since then.

[@SharidaM]

Thanks for sharing!! 💞

[@SharidaM]

And I wish you much success on your SL journey ☺️

[@promostk]

here watching and learning..

[@SharidaM]

Enjoy! 💞😆

[@dr.evettes_route]

your locs are lovely...lazy is not the word for once per month wash day...I love the freedom and that's two of us following the rules to the T

[@SharidaM]

Thank you Dr. Evette!

[@danajones8788]

Great video, details on the necklace please😊

[@SharidaM]

Thank you!! Nirvanawild.com for the jewelry 💕

[@imaniiguess9760]

Good one Mama!

[@SharidaM]

Thanks poo!

[@raen-m6431]

Your hair is surely growing and looks good

[@SharidaM]

Thank you lol! 💕 I was looking back at a video from 5 months ago and it is getting longer 😆.

[@nicoleharris2509]

Hi Sharida, the information is great, I have a consult next week. What exactly is braiding (do you have a video that actually shows that) I did not learn how to braid.

[@SharidaM]

No tutorial on braiding but I just make 6 braids which is over lapping the hair in a three part pattern.

[@EurRoseGurl]

Can you do a video about you being a police officer. Sounds so fascinating. Thanks.

[@SharidaM]

Lol! I will consider it.

[@nataliep6046]

I have a few tester locs and I have SERIOUS hand in hair syndrome lol i am counting down until my establishment

[@lucyall1898]

Love my locks. Thank you for your honesty. New Sub.

[@SharidaM]

Thanks for subbing! Love mine too 💕!!

[@Mrs.Adrian]

I had a baby and went an extra two weeks without a retie…never again… I am every 4 weeks MAYBE 4 and a half. 5 is pushing it. I had a whole Afro under my locs at 6 weeks

[@SharidaM]

Yes I definitely get it lol. Everyone knows there limit and I when some people try to tell you 4 or even 6 weeks is too often. If your hair grows or marries fast you need to go more often.

[@tinarjackson9844]

The white bulbs is not just shedding...but they may be too tight!

[@SharidaM]

Very true. I don’t think thats my case tho.

[@vanessashaw5365]

How do you keep your locs looking so hydrated. Just starting my journey and my biggest fear is dry looking locs. Also, your skin…amazing. What gives?

[@SharidaM]

I just use a little water and oil on scalp when needed. But locs are just quite dry in general. Its just something you have to get used to. My skin I owe to my Korean Skincare regimen. I have a video from about 6 months ago that detail how I finally cured my acne and bad skin texture. Here is a link if you are interested in watching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4HQknZ3bZZ8odE

[@TheUnicornQueenT]

Thanks for this video. You're beautiful btw.

[@SharidaM]

Thank you CryptoQueen!

[@VixyParis]

Hi Sharida, I’ll be going to the same loctician u went to Im in ATL. She told me she can install but advised I seek a back up loctician for reties because she’s booked. Do u have another loctician u would recommend in ATL or surrounding areas?

[@SharidaM]

My backup consultant is Nakia Hannon she is out in Lilburn tho. Quite the drive but she is wonderful! Here is her IG instagram.com/gridlocdroots?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

[@latonyapoole380]

I also have the hand in hair syndrome lol
