Jimmy McCrary how was it? The retwist.

[@JimmyJamesMcCrary]

Milton Johnson III it turned out REALLY good... I can definitely see the growth, but I’m ready to be in month 6 and to stop wearing this durag every night. 😩😩😩😩

[@teishamisunderstood339]

Jimmy McCrary you need to cover your hair daily are eventually you Locs will look like it’s dirty cuz of lints so I recommend covering your head daily.

Washed my starter locs myself at my 4th week mark ( getting it retwisted this week on the 6th week mark ) and I was so scared when my hair puffed up into a fro like hers, glad to know it’s all apart of the process. So excited for my first retwist, thank you!!

It's been 7 days and I'm washing it because normally I would wash my hair every week. Umma just chill on the scrubbing so they don't unravel.

[@GypsyCurls]

These are my favorites of your videos. I like it when people say they retwisting hair; that they are actually retwisting hair in the video and it’s not sped up like crazy and there is only 1-2 minutes of retwisting. I just love your videos period! Please keep them coming like this. I really get into the journeys.

[@DXlocs]

Gypsy Curls thank you!!

[@dreadheadmikey610]

That was a hell of a transformation on the first retwist . Got me hype for mine . Two more weeks

[@Jayfrm7blk]

How long should ur twist be in before retwist

[@jaydw2583]

@@Jayfrm7blk please I’m wondering this now 😭 I have my appointment scheduled for my third week (next wendsday) but I’ve been hearing people say 4-6 weeks. My hair is growing outta control though and already budding so I want to manage it before the roots start tangling which happens with my 4c hair.

[@Kyprioth071]

@@jaydw2583 I think it depends on what technique was used for your starter locs and how many times you've washed it. Also, how fast your hair grows. For most people, it's 4-6 weeks, but it's an estimate. It sounds like you're right to go in sooner. I had 2 strand twists instead of coils, my hair doesn't grow that fast, and I haven't washed my hair (I kinda don't like washing my hair so I've always procrastinated anyways), so I could probably wait even longer than 6 weeks, but just to be safe, I'm going in at 5 weeks. My loctician used gel in my hair and you can still see it in their so I hope washing will get it out, but we'll see. My hair doesn't absorb things all that well, but she needed to use some product to lengthen out the hair--it's pretty stubborn. Lol.

[@jaydw2583]

@@Kyprioth071 yea your exactly right. I went in at 3 weeks and my loctitian said that was perfect and not to wait any longer, my hair has been growing like crazy and I only let her wash it. She didn’t use a lot of gel for mines which I like bc I don’t want buildup, also I started with comb coils. 1 month in and all of them have multiple buds.

[@lounachevelon4934]

Where are you located at

[@akilahocana6859]

OMG!! I finally see what I've been doing wrong. I've been recoiling all the way to the end of my hair (pretty much smoothing it to the tip) and not wrapping the loose hairs during my retwists. Couldn't figure out why most of them seemed to be doing nothing. I was interrupting the process and just didn't realize it. Thanks so much for this video!! I've watched it so many times but I'm just catching my mistake.

[@katietucker4772]

Definitely interested I just started my locs I’m at 2 months tomorrow looks good can’t wait till this quarantine is over so I can get my hair washed and re twisted .

[@DerreilleNewton]

Katie Tucker me too, this video makes me want to wash, but I’m afraid that I won’t be able to get my parts back right. What length was yours when you started? The itching is also driving me crazy. Good luck on your journey 😃

[@dj3dubbt]

You really eased my mind with no worrying about if some wash out after wash. I'm 1 month in an stylist told me to come back every 2 weeks. So my first wash looked like she washed them all out. My hair only about 2.5 inches. This made me understand the process. Thank you

The frizz never dies.. I've learned to accept mine (took forever) ... but since you have a soft texture you may have more frizz. You could try crochet to help keep it to a minimum.

I was intrigued about using the supergro gel product that you show in the video. Currently i Only use coconut oil and water to get my retwists done. I wanted to stay away from gels but was intrigued by the supergro product as it claims to be flake and build up free. Do you have any advice on the matter.

I freaked out hard after my first wash. I wanted to give up. I thought i was a lost cause. I waited to late to do the research. But i had my 3rd retwist today. Im hanging in there 😅

[@heatherkarz4014]

My boyfriend has had his locs for about 6 months, we've been dating for one month and he has had me take over the maintenance of his locs etc. The person who started his locs did seemingly clean parts, but extremely uneven. To where some are VERY thin and others are 3 times that size right next to each other. The sections also seem to be on a slope, from 1in gradually down to MAYBE 1/4 inch on the same row. He said he's open to me combing out and restarting his locs, in your opinion is this a good idea? More for consistency and loc integrity than over all aesthetic but that plays a part for him as well. Thanks in advance!

[@javonjamayal]

My first retwist was like hers after 3 weeks i really wanted to wash my hair so i tried the stocking cap method n freaked out when it fro’Ed up so i called out of work so my stylist can retwist. Because i couldn’t because I’m disabled with one of my hands. So i can’t do my own retwist. My stylist laughed cause i really thought i messed them up.

And what is come good product that want make build up in ur locs .

[@lmao9179]

What’s happens if you start with really thick locs around 33-35? Will they unravel worse or the same? I’ll still wash like you said but just want to do the right thing

[@randalljohnson5594]

I plan on using a stocking cap when I do my first wash on my comb coils. It’s the only thing that makes sense. I already used a stocking cap when I do my salt water spritz’s. After I get locked I am planing to go with semi free form.

[@bonkers5416]

I don't understand the look. She looks like she has bald spots all over her scalp. And yes I'm white and obviously very ignorant in regards to black hair. But I like learning about it.😊

[@donteh855]

PIMPLEPOTAMUS it’s just the spacing in between each individual loc.

[@steveysteve1893]

I agree, I feel like the spacing is too wide for these small dreads, they might look better with length

[@asotel]

Once her hair starts growing, the new growth will fill out the spacing/parting. Because her hair will be fuller. Then the new growth will have to be parted and twisted.
