How I RETWIST My Locs | Naturally Michy

[@VelmaElizabeth_]

Your hair is so thick and pretty. It’s so interesting looking at other people’s locs. They all have their own unique beauty about them.

[@NaturallyMichy]

Absolutely! No two heads are the same which makes them so unique. 🙂

[@Weatherthestormm]

Yes I am obsessed with locs 😂

[@SeptemberBluez]

@@Weatherthestormm same😂

[@wandeeunscripted]

True

[@ShayShea]

Proof that people can calm down... you can start locs with two strand twist an slay when it's done right!

[@obaapamoses6632]

Hello, there’s other ways to start locs ?

[@taracannonllc]

The thickness and length of the locs are really beautiful on this lady.

[@GypsyCurls]

There is sooo much that I admire about the contents of this video. First, I love that you’re not concerned with your gray hair. I am starting to gray and one of the things I don’t see, are more locs that are gray or peppered with it. The other thing is that your locs are coming along so well. I am so happy for the progress that you have made. I can’t wait to see more from you about your locs.

[@NaturallyMichy]

Awe! Thank you soooo much!🤗🤗🤗

[@Peachez_and_ThePits]

I use to work at a beauty supply and my all time favorite customer had silver locs to her butt. The only thing she would buy was purple toning shampoo to keep her grey bright. I would have to catch myself being a creep because I loved her hair so much 😍😩😂🤣

[@chicagoliightsx]

@@Peachez_and_ThePits Lol! That is so cute 😊😍😜

[@KeptByGodsGrace]

This is motivation. I started my locs 8 months ago. Alot of people told me i need to use some type of gel. I only use oils and water. They are so light weight and soft, but they are locked. I also don't use any combs, just my fingers

[@Kdanielle]

Keona Davis what oils do you use?

[@phillyprettyblackasian1669]

Your doing exactly how I do. I only use natural products in mine.

[@dawannakiller1350]

I started my loc journey 2 weeks ago but I did about 2 weeks of intense research because I I wanted to quickly get to it lol. But I found water and oils is the only route you want to go. My hair texture is very fine and I start on about 6 inches of relaxed hair and 3 inch inches of natural hair so product was tempting lol.. I can’t wait til my first wash and retwist tho.

[@803Juice]

Same here! I daily steam in the shower, when I do wash them, I use Dawn dish detergent then Dr Bonners peppermint soap then oil my scalp up REALLY good before I retwist. Its been 8 months and my babies have come such a long way. No products needed 😊

[@aneesescott9908]

as you should !!

[@avibecallednellez]

I love that your locs just easily fall into an asymmetrical bob lol you so bomb. I'm enjoying watching your journey!!!!!!

[@LatoyaYadav]

I got my hair professionally loc'd in September. Last time I went to get it done was November. After that, I couldn't really afford to do it. This motivates me to do it myself and I know I can do it bc of this video! Thank you for inspiring me bc I will start retwisting my hair myself from now. And if I want nice 'do I'll see a professional!

[@indriadrayton1132]

This takes me back!!!! I wore locs 12 years ago and I did them myself by 2 strand twists and not combing them out. Had them for 8 years. Tried again, but my now grey hair is a different creature......

[@NaturallyMichy]

Thank you for sharing Indria!

[@indriadrayton1132]

I am repeating myself! Age.....

[@livehappigirl]

Beautiful. You gave me the inspiration I needed to try to retwist mine. Quarantine is challenging me on many levels!

[@indriadrayton1132]

This takes me back! Had locs for 8 years. I 2 strand twisted my locs with water and Indian hemp hair grease mixed with olive oil. Love the music!

[@sassy1972ful]

Lovely job! Plucking up the courage to start caring for my own. Wish I had started mine myself. Loc'ed since April.

[@sweetrose19]

You did your starter locs very nicely.

[@pochokat6443]

Careful build up will come dr bronners. Unless you dilute. Best to use neutrogena clarifying shampoos. I’m 5 years in and began with dr B wash and by year 3 couldn’t understand where build was coming from until I began seeing other videos saying it’s the oil in ingredients

[@NaturallyMichy]

Thanks for the heads up!

[@SRH189]

Thank you for letting us know ❤️

[@indriadrayton1132]

You have to dilute with water, more water than soap. I add a slew of cleansing oils to my hair, but I acv rinse, mixed with more water, of course, my hair first, especially the scalp, before using the soap. Maybe with locs, you should use the acv rinse again after the Castile soap and let it sit for a few minutes or so, then rinse it out. That might eat away at the build up.

Beautiful crown!

[@divinely_magical387]

I've been waiting patiently for this. Thanks for taking time to post it, do you think you'll have to combine any going forward? I was so indecisive about how small or big I wanted my parts. I have 130, but I'm really thinking about starting over. Ur hair is beautiful, it so becoming on u.

[@NaturallyMichy]

Thank you so much! I have 2 or 3 questionable locs that I may have to combine in the near future, but I'm not sure whether I should wait until they fully mature to make that decision yet. Are you thinking about having more or less number of locs?

[@divinely_magical387]

@@NaturallyMichy I would like them a little smaller. I think they appear more full, the smaller they are. I wanted to get ur take on whether you feel combining would be necessary in ur future to help me decide whether going a bit smaller is a good idea.

[@NaturallyMichy]

It really just depends on the person and what they like. I believe you can have fuller locs with both larger and smaller locs, but that's also determine by each individual's thickness, texture, how you start and maintain them. Whether I combine mines or not in the near future, we'll just have to wait and see. My locs are different sizes all around and I prefer the thicker locs over the smaller ones, but I'll wait until they fully mature before I make any alterations.

[@shawneegirl1980]

@Teisha MISUNDERSTOOD breakage doesn't occur merely because of how small the locks are....locks break depending on the health of the hair and how often the hair is being manipulated. Many people get sisterlocks and their hair doesn't break because they leave it alone. While I do agree that smaller locks don't necessarily mean a fuller look (Millicent's locks are definitely full)....I disagree that smaller locks mean breakage.

You did great and i love your locs.

[@thedetervilletwins276]

I love love love your hair😍. I didn’t even think of having by hair twisted in 2 different directions when I first started. That would have made things a bit easier for me since I retwist myself 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@NaturallyMichy]

Thank you so much! Once I realized how differently I flat twisted my loose natural hair on the left and right sides, I knew I'd have to make some adjustments for my starter locs. It's the easiest way for me to remember which direction to twist my hair. :)

[@biabia9181]

I think our parts and amount of locs are exactly the same. I am 2.5 months in I can tell my hair is thickening up at the roots I just can wait until the rest gets as thick.

[@LoveSelfFirst1980]

It will never loc from root to tip... your hair is constantly growing so technically it’s a new beginning for your roots always because the whole head has to lic with the same process... think of your roots as new beginning of a baby loc💜 you did a great job!

[@reannaherrera7203]

Hello I have a few questions.... First how long do you leave your hair in the clips/retwist style? Second what are you spraying in your hair? Third I’m doing locs but im doing the Inter locing method.... but my scalp is still fuzzy after my retwist and relocs How do I get them clean looking?

[@NaturallyMichy]

1. I keep my clips in until my hair is almost dry (underneath a hair 15-30 minutes). 2. I'm using Impress Loc and Slay to retwist my hair. 3. I'm not as familiar with interlocking, but hopefully someone else will see your comment and be able to chime in and answer your question.

How soon after you retwist do you wet/spray your hair to moisturize?

[@DK-qj7cr]

TFS do you ever think you will retwist using the interlocking method? It seems like it would mean less retwisting 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@NaturallyMichy]

Anything is possible. So I won't say that I'll never try it. As of right now, I'm fine with palm rolling as I'm still learning about my hair.

[@nosillaxoc]

What has been the biggest surprise/shock in dealing with your hair as it changing? Are you enjoying the process? How often do you/will you cleanse it? Has the texture changed?

[@NaturallyMichy]

The biggest surprises that I've had with my hair as its changing are: 1). Noticing how different my textures are compared to the back and sides. Because my sides are a looser curl pattern from the back (kinkier), I have this unique bob. The back is locking a lot quicker then the sides too. AND 2). The simple fact that I haven't gotten bored with wearing my hair in the same hairstyle for the past 6 months. This is coming from a girl who use to change her hairstyle up EVERY WEEK because I loved changing my hair. I wash my hair every 2-3 weeks between retwists days and of course during retwists. I still have a lot of my 2 strand twists pattern throughout my hair, so I haven't experienced a huge texture change as of yet or at least not to my knowledge.

[@nosillaxoc]

Millicent Swift I have been playing with the idea of locs but I’m afraid of the commitment for the same reason. I like change. I assume texture would change. My hair is high porosity so that worries me about moisturizing it. Your locs are beautiful and I love the shape of the bob. I’ll be paying attention and taking notes. Hoping I can get the courage to do it.
