Locs: Military sock bun without the sock!!!! (life hack)

[@NaomiMcCloud-g4b]

I'm not in the military but I'm an administrative assistant and this has saved my little life. I can't do hair worth a damn, so thank you!!

[@RebekahElaine]

@@NaomiMcCloud-g4b you’re so welcome! I’m glad this is still helping folks!!

[@kobinwa]

I love it!!!! I'm a nurse and I have waist length locs that I have to wear up every day. This is now my favorite way to put my locs in a bun. It's easy and compacts my hair. The best part is that this is the only bun that I'm able to wear low that does not give me a headache. Thank you so much!!! Your locs are beautiful.

[@RebekahElaine]

Yay!! I’m glad to hear that this was helpful! Thank you for your compliment as well. Blessing❤️

[@lyndamurray5474]

Thanks! This tutorial was very helpful. I made my bun well on the second attempt.

Thank you so much for this tutorial! Such a perfect bun. Your locs are beautiful. I have Sisterlocs and I have been trying to do a bun for years and still haven't figured it out. This was very helpful. I'm definitely going to try it this way. Thank you.

[@RebekahElaine]

You’re welcome. I’m glad it was helpful ☺️

[@LotusLuv82]

Thank you Ma'am!!! Doing the bun was so tedious, I usually save it for my dress uniform, and wear a ponytail(which i hate) in NWUs. I will be using this method for now on!

[@Lifewhisperer]

Thanks!

Wow! Thank you so much! I’m glad the tutorial was helpful

[@MrsTammyBaby]

This is so pretty

[@RebekahElaine]

Thank you

[@Enigma_surf13]

This looks lovely. I'm an early childhood teacher and the babies grab my long locs all day. I'll be trying this, because the other styles have been putting a lot of stress on my edges and they're breaking off😢

[@RebekahElaine]

I’m sorry I’m just seeing this comment. But I hope you e been able to do the style.

[@drea5293]

@@RebekahElaine my locs are all the way down my back so it’ll be quite the nice challenge to get this style right

[@ashleysmith6023]

Thank you so much for this. I put faux locs over my six month old real locs for length and the bun is so stressful.

You’re welcome! I’m glad this could help!

Thank youu! I leave for BMT in 2 weeks and doing my hair is my biggest concern. My dreads are about that same length and super thick. I even considered trimming them a bit but maybe I won't need to.

[@RebekahElaine]

You’re welcome- I really hope it works out for you!! Good luck in training

I'm about to join but my locs are too long to hang lose but too short to be in a bun without pieces Sticking out

Awesomeness

I did this once correctly and can't get it every since

[@RebekahElaine]

It’s hit or miss for me. Lately mine have been a bit lopsided lol. I’m not sure why.

[@theyolandajean]

What size are your locs?

[@RebekahElaine]

They’re small. But they’re not considered micro. I have 137 locs kzbin.info/www/bejne/povLh2CVeNqieLs

I thicker dreads dint work

[@RebekahElaine]

@@FeitrasPace-s4d I’m sorry to hear that

[@jazzyjam3392]

My locs are at an awkward length and I want to go to basic training next year. My hair would be considered short but the locs in the back might be longer than the collar. Is it better to leave it or get extensions so that I can put it in a bun? I don’t want to cut my hair.

[@RebekahElaine]

I think if you could use pics or a net, that’s would be helpful. I’m not a fan of extensions, but if you think they’re right for you, then it’s should be a good solution.

[@jazzyjam3392]

Rebekah Elaine thank you for your reply. I’ll check with my recruiter as well. I believe I could do two braids going back but I’d have to learn how. I don’t want to get to basic and have to worry about hair.

[@blayndelta5162]

did your locs hold out throughout your training? I plan on joining the navy but im really struggling with hairstyles for my dreads since my hair's really thick and the last thing i want to do is worry about my hair as well

[@RebekahElaine]

Hi there. I joined years before I had locs. But I believe that overall locs can be maintained in training. You may have to Retwist once or twice when you have time off

[@ryn7474]

A LITERAL LIFE SAVER. I HAVE ROTC TMMRW AND WE HAVE TO WEAR OUR UNIFORMS 😭

[@RebekahElaine]

I’m glad it’s helpful!! I still do this sometimes 2 years later lol

I wish they would let men have locs.

Lots of men wear locs?

Oh do u mean in the military
