Loc Journey | Starter Locs | Locs on 3A/3B Hair

[@ambijai]

I’m so sooooo happy i found your page. People keep telling me that my hair type can’t loc and i have the same type of hair as you 😭😭😭😭❤️. This really made my day thank you so much

[@floraolivia11]

Yes! And your journey will be your own journey, dont let them tell you otherwise

[@jamaicawhite9690]

Same here and I can’t find anyone willing to do it

[@chanceparker853]

i guess it is kind of randomly asking but do anyone know of a good website to watch new movies online?

[@TheCurlySosa]

Going through the same thing. Thanks girl!

I have the same hair type as you and I’ve always been told that I shouldn’t loc my hair. But it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while. Thank you for sharing your journey!

[@floraolivia11]

Hey hey! I encourage you to do it!❤️

[@Imlejj]

This is my third time starting locs and the only thing that helps my scalp is rosewater. literally no itching whatsoever

[@floraolivia11]

Yes, I need to get some! Thanks

[@TiannaShareee]

I loved this because I just started my locs September 1st I've been wanting to start the journey forever, I got passion twists over the starter locs for now because I just wasn't feeling how I looked with the starter locs since my hair is fine, but you have me excited to stick to it for the first time and trust the process. Love your locs thanks for sharing the journey! I feel many of us with same texture hair get told the same thing!

[@floraolivia11]

Shout out to you for starting your locs and yes embrace it all!!

[@ry-hh3js]

I have the same hair type and ppl swore that my hair wouldn't loc. I started with 50 now i have like 58-60. I am 5 months in. I have 3b/3c

[@floraolivia11]

Exactly! Now what are they saying lmao #locgang

[@AlienSuperstar77]

I always wondered if people meant the literal hair strands couldn’t handle it. Like how a lot of white people’s hair can’t handle box braids/cornrows. I want to get locs so badly tho.

[@xok7077]

I always wondered this, I also have 3b/3c curls and I'm thinking of starting locs but I want to leave my curly ends

[@simply_dee6653]

@@xok7077it’s definitely possible! That is how I wore mine, roots to ends loc’d with 4 inches of curls combed out at the ends on every loc. it was absolutely beautiful and I felt like me. I went through a very hard break up and needed to cleanse my roots of that energy so I combed them out.. 5 going on 6 years of having them. Broke my heart to do it but it was necessary. Now im ready to start again :3 just need to figure out how I want to part it

[@TeighlorTalk]

You gave me the confidence to start my locs! We have almost identical hair type. Please keep the videos coming! ❤

[@floraolivia11]

I’m so glad I did🤎 yes more videos coming soon!

[@highclass1421]

Yesss I’m so glad I found your channel. I get told my hair will take forever to lock in the front because of my looser texture hair

[@floraolivia11]

I’m glad you found my channel❤️

[@MsPintoBeans1001]

I have the same hair type as you and I finally decided to loc my hair in November 22’. I was inspired by my partner and I couldn’t be happier. However some days are better than others haha. I love your locs btw ✨

[@PeaceNotPerfextion]

FYI: I wash surprised to learn lots of ppl wash their starter locs, I’m one that ust couldn’t take it after two weeks... I tried, but my hair loves water🤷🏾‍♀️but you have to gently message the scalp... for 3A/B curly types (me) I find air drying until it’s about 80% dry, then re-twisting is much easier than re twisting while wet, especially if you’re using gel, because the hair wants to unravel.

[@AfrocenteredLife]

This hair pattern is just like mine in regards to the lumpy bumpy wavy/curly however your hair is softer in texture. I’m on my 4th journey of trying before taking them out. This time I haven’t taken them out and won’t because I love low maintenance and I’m determined to stay for the end result this time. I hated lumpy bumpys as I call them and thats why I took them out the other times! I realize due to my hair texture it’s impossible to stop the lumpy bumpys so I am relinquishing control over trying to stop them from doing what they will do, lol..seeing your hair videos gives me hope that they will become more uniform and less lumpy bumpy at some point for the most part. Some people like this look because it reminds them of goddess locs but I like them to be without the bumpys, lol. Maybe I have some form of OCD so this is forcing me to let go and be patient.

[@floraolivia11]

@@AfrocenteredLife yes I couldn’t agree more with you! Definitely let go and know your locs are unique to you. I was 3 years 😂in thinking my hair was still locking due to the lumps in my hair but then realized that’s just my hair texture

I have 3b/3c hair and I’m 4 months in I wash it every 3. -4 weeks bc of dry scalp and itching. I’m looking for a good and clean spirited loctician in NY

[@floraolivia11]

*pins comment NY LOCTICIANS TAP IN🤎

[@esisrandomtv]

I have this type of hair and started my locs weeks ago. I was feeling myself on sunday and went to xhuch without a wig and oh did i make a mistake? They made me feel like , locing my hair is the worst hair decision for me but i am convinced that i really want it so am committed. I will probably do wigs to chuch for sometime until the hairbis properly locked cuz am not ready for the negative talk about my hair

[@floraolivia11]

@@esisrandomtv I would say not wear the wig, do you❤️ and f who ever is talking negative. If anything your locs will gravitate the right ppl to you.

[@hershey307]

My locs are very similar. We have similar texture. I love them! ❤

Thank you!

We got da same hair thank you for da hope now

Of course!!!

[@raine12578]

i’ve been considering locking up for months now. im 16. im a little nervous to start.. but im doing my research!

[@andreamonroe2396]

Omg I start my locs Thursday 31st and I'm so excited I hear so much that my hair is to curly and because I'm Rican it won't stay. I'm so nervous but excited and now seeing this I feel so much better

[@S.Eriata12]

Omg same 😭

[@PeaceNotPerfextion]

Don’t listen to ppl; most have no clue when it comes to locs... they’re accustomed to seeing people with dense, tightly coiled hair with locs so they assume that’s the only hair texture that can rock them... we would see more people that 3B/C (black, and other people of color) with locs if they didn’t let people talk them out of getting them... do your thing, it’s only hair✌🏾

[@Arr0zconk3tchup]

cant wait to grow out my hair a bit more and start my loc journey.

[@floraolivia11]

I can’t wait for you to start🤩

[@joannacapulet]

I’m so happy I found u I have similar hair texture n recently started locsss too I’m 6mo in I noticed tht not a lot of ppl w our hair type have KZbin channels so I defffff had to subscribe, n upload a vid toooo 🙃

i'm so torn cuz ion know what route i should take. i have 3a hair, but ionk if i should do freeforms, crochet instant, coils, or 2 strands. n its longgg, like mid back

I did coils so it’s all I know but when I combined some locs I did two strands, both worked in my favor !

[@anabelbernal18]

What is the best loc method for 3a-b hair?! I want to loc my hair but leave the curls on the end but I read micro locs aren’t the best for this hair type! I also want a more gird like style, Does anyone know!?

[@floraolivia11]

Hey hey, my sister loc'd her hair and left her curls on the ends. I would do the coil method and style it in barrel twist for starters. Your curls at the end wont really matter until your hair begins to start budding then I would make sure you aren't twisting your ends during retwist.

[@Kingjahdp]

Its crazy you said he in pg 😂 im having trouble with my locs same hair texture. Im also located in pg 💪🏽

[@floraolivia11]

Hey hey! You should go to IG @locsbylokelo !!!

[@jamaicawhite9690]

No one seemed like they wanted to start my locs either they kept making comments about how they can’t do it

[@PeaceNotPerfextion]

That’s actually a blessing... why deal with someone whose heart isn’t in it... if your loctician is going to be in your headed throughout your journey, it’s not It cool, find someone else or do it yourself. Believe it or not, people have been successfully locking their own hair for YEARS prior to KZbin✌🏾

[@harral4115]

We got the exact same hair type but idk how I should start them. If I do it myself I kinda wanna two strand but how well will it work?

[@floraolivia11]

I started with the coil method! I find it helped that when he started my loc’s he styled
