MICROLOCS RETIGHTENING 'RETIE' APPOINTMENT | INTERLOCK METHOD *relaxing*

[@Blaqbudafly]

The pampering that you get in Nigeria is top tier 🙌🏾

[@Ifeyinwa]

Isn't it?? Gosh!

[@SimplyThobi]

OMG your locs look so so GOOD. I can't wait for my locs to mature. I don't have thick hair like yours but we have a similar length. Love your hair!!

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you so much! And don’t you worry your hair will thicken as it matures!

[@chynnadoll1999]

Your hair is just GORGEOUS!!! I have nowhere near as many locs as you, (about 200), I'm just 4 months in, and my reties are about 2-2 1/2 hrs. So, 500 locs in 2 hrs. is simply AMAZINGGG.🤗😉

[@Ifeyinwa]

It’s so interesting hearing about how long peoples reties take. My locticians in the UK only take 3 hours as well. Not bad at all!

[@candicehansonlee]

Hi, your locs are beautiful 😍. I pay $150 for my re-tie, which also includes a detox and steam/treat. It takes 3 1/2 - 4 hours for everything

[@Ifeyinwa]

OoH you steam your locs? How long have you been loc’d for?

[@samz396]

Wow!! Your loctician is amazing she is super fast super neat im really impressed. Your locs are everything❤

[@Ifeyinwa]

I agree she’s amazing, and thank you!

[@dabs-lo4bl]

Your hair has grown so much. This was quite relaxing to watch.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you so much, I found it super relaxing to edit but I wasn’t sure if anyone else would think that lol

[@daliboom28]

I just love your videos! 5 mths with my locs. You give me hope every time I question myself on my decision of loving my hair.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Aww this makes me so happy! Keep going, it's such. rewarding journey ❤️

[@anydae]

I'm 18 months in - self started and self maintained. Re-tied my hair about a week ago focusing on the front and will do a full re-tie about a month from now. I take 1 day to 2 days to redo my hair and I have maybe 220 locs - wish I had more but I don't have a grid and my hair is less dense than yours. Your hair looks great. Enjoy

[@Ifeyinwa]

I’m so impressed by you doing everything yourself, you’re amazing!

[@Danieei]

I currently pay $180 but once my year comes up I want to try to do them myself

[@Ifeyinwa]

That’s amazing!

[@jannelledear2645]

We’re on the same maintenance schedule. I got my locs re-tied today. I’m about 85% loc’d. I have some trouble spots at the crown and at the edges. I’m shocked at how much growth I’ve retained in the last 8 months. Such a beautiful style.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Honestly, locs are so beautiful and this is hands down the healthiest my hair has ever been

[@beautywithinsherry7141]

The lady worked very fast. My daughter has 250 locs and its takes me about 3 sittings to complete. Each sitting about 2 hours. My daughter is a year in but she has a lot of loose hair that I also wrap around the loc, which I think it's why it takes me so long.

[@Ifeyinwa]

That's still amazing! If I had to retie someones hair it would take me DAAAAYS!

[@idarae.7025]

On my way to my retie right now and you actually inspired me to loc my hair. Having so much fun and comfort with it.

[@Ifeyinwa]

This makes me so happy to hear!

[@sijeoma]

Love this video, thank you!!! I’ve had my sisterlocks for 4 years, they’re about bra strap length and I’m overwhelmed😩 I love them, but man are they all over the place and heavy on wash day lol! I get reties every 6ish weeks (4 point turn) and it takes about 3 hours too. It costs about $100 each time, so Lagos prices are cheap! I’ll be in Lagos this summer for about 6 weeks and was worried I wouldn’t find a loctician - so thanks for sharing her info! Side note - I recently found your channel and I love it here! Thanks for sharing with us!

[@Ifeyinwa]

Awwww thank you so much Ije, I can't wait for my locs to grow longer but I can imagine it must be heavy. I'm ready for those problems though haha

[@ijeomandubuisi3330]

I'm 8 weeks into my loc journey and enjoy watching your videos. I'm not loving my locs yet as they're wispy, shrunken and stiff! I hope it'll get better and start to look fuller with body and movement like yours

[@sijeoma]

I can relate, I hated mine at this stage too… it took months for my locs to start looking full and lively😭 Hang in there, it will happen before you know it!

[@Ifeyinwa]

Totally agree with you Ije!

[@I.thrive365]

Mabel did an amazing job! Your hair is so beautiful.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you so much!

[@janab.6303]

Beautiful locs! Excited to see mine mature like yours. I’m 6 weeks post microlocs install and had my first retie a couple days ago in Sugarland, Tx at Family hair braiding/ RootLocks salon. 2 locticians did my retie and it took 1 hr and cost $160. Luv luv luv my locs and kicking myself that I didn’t do it sooner. Shake and go is the best thing ever 🎉

[@Ifeyinwa]

Congratulations! I hope you enjoy your journey ☺️

[@NkechiAnaedobe_Assa]

My reties take about 2-3 hours. I have about 367 microlocs. I actually wanted a lot more but I never really had the conversation going in which I still feel a twinge of regret about every now and then. But it’s just 3 months in and I know the locs will expand and condense and since I have full hair they’ll still come out nice. I’m tempted to see if I can have Enibraids do my next retie just so I have another loctitian’s opinion but I’m not sure I’ll have cause to be in Lagos around the time I’m due for a retie. I love neat grids and no frizzy hair so I’m learning to take the opposite in stride on this journey. I’ve also realized that while there is a lot of information online, there’s also a myriad of mis or confusion information as well so I’ll learn to trust my instincts and listen to my hair and body about this while speaking with loctitians. Great great video as always. I’m tempted to journal my journey too ❤❤❤

[@Ang.143]

I think you have a great number. I have over 500 and I’m going to combine because doing my own hair takes a while 😅 your hair will still be full and beautiful

[@SandraD6281]

Thanks for sharing! I start my micro loc journey in May. I am so excited! The cost is very expensive but I will not be buying products so it will eventually even out! Wishful thinking!

[@Ifeyinwa]

It's super expensive upfront, but in the long run (at least for me) it's been cheaper. Especially as I haven't bought any extensions in almost 2 years haha

[@blufaerie]

And now I want to go to these professionals!

[@daraedge2911]

I'm at 16 months! I have a retie this weekend and can't wait to see the length now.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Soon come!

[@shavontedavis271]

She did a good job

[@Ifeyinwa]

PLEASE DON’T FORGET TO GIVE THIS VIDEO A THUMBS UP 👍🏾

[@saywhatseidu]

I can’t agree more, when I was getting my retires done in Ghana they were tighter and cleannnnnnn! Grid super clean. Over here seems they’re not as meticulous with the reties as often. Even when all the videos I see. lol

[@Ifeyinwa]

No comparison at all, though ny current Loctician here (I made a video with her recently) is VERY meticulous, I love the way she does my hair

[@saywhatseidu]

@@Ifeyinwa ouuu I’ll have to watch! I love a good retie 😅. Glad you found a gem!

[@alyannan2845]

Your hair is so gorgeous! Been watching since your installation and WOW. I pay 140 USD and go in every five weeks. My loc lady is fast and good. I’m gone in like two three hours usually. So much better than my box braids days. 😂

[@Ifeyinwa]

That's actually very reasonable compared to some of the US prices I've heard

[@She_is_P]

Your hair looks so good! I am patiently awaiting my hair being locked fully. I am only nine months.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Haha don’t you worry soon come! My hairs not even fully loc’d yet and I still love it!

[@TheMrseaster74]

Beautiful retie!!!! Your grid looks sooo good! I never knew how many microlocs you had, no wonder it’s SO full. I am 7.5 months loc’d and my reties are every 7-8 weeks. I have 264 microlocs. Takes my loctician 90 mins! She’s quick but very gentle so I find my reties very relaxing as well.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Awww that’s lovely and a very quick retie time as well!

[@jroverman2935]

Love it! Professional, neat and the outcome is great!❤

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@ericajohnson9320]

Hair goals😍😍😍

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you so much!

[@Ams-do6sx]

I'm in North London and paid £120 for wash and retie (price has increased significantly). I have around 250 apprpx and full service it took about 2.5-3hrs. @Ifeyinwa Who does your hair in London (I couldn't see it in the bio)?

[@Ifeyinwa]

I recommend Jus U Hair Salon or try shopping around on the Sisterlocks registry, it's all linked in my description box.

[@montoriabryan167]

I dont know if you’ve answered this before but do they do a 2, 3, or 4 point turn on your hair? Your locs look so good!

[@Ifeyinwa]

I have no idea sorry, I’ve never asked but thank you!

[@nico.lowe227]

I’m almost 4 months loc’d and I have had 3 reties. I am going to try the damp hair tip because my reties have been pretty painful. I have thinner hair and probably 300+\- locs but my reties take about 3 hours 😮. I guess my loctician is slower. I am in Canada 🇨🇦 and the cost is significantly higher out here! Ugh

[@Ifeyinwa]

Awww I’m so sorry to hear that, definitely try the water bottle trick. And maybe a painkiller before your reties should help 🫶🏾

[@chynnadoll1999]

Be sure and let your loctician know about your pain! A loctician I follow on KZbin suggests stopping before the last pass your loctician usually does, if it is too painful for you. And, you definitely don't want to pull any follicles out, by pulling your hair too tight at your scalp!!! Best wishes on your journey!😘

[@angelaamare9290]

Beautiful Microlocs

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you so much!

[@Buttergirla]

Lord have mercy they are Soo so so beautiful but it just aint worth it naw I can't do it

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you 😂 😂 😂

[@dawndejesus23]

Hi and thank you for these videos…I am truly inspired by your loc journey ❤. I have been natural now for 2 years wearing my hair in twists and just like you were, I’m ready for a change. I’m considering a trip to London from the USA to get my micro locs started (Lagos is too far for me right now lol). Is it possible to make an appointment with this loctitian or someone else with Enibraids in the London area to arrange an appointment? If so, could you send me contact information? Thank you in advance 😊.

[@Ifeyinwa]

Hiya, all the links you need are in my description box but Enibraids is in Lagos Nigeria, not London.

[@SotySpecial]

Wish I was brave and committed enough to do this!

[@Ifeyinwa]

Haha no pressure hun

[@soulstarmusiclover1254]

Hi ifeyinwa, I love your hair it’s really pretty. Can you transition out of locs without cutting your hair? I see they use a crochet needle that’s interesting.

[@Ifeyinwa]

A few people on here have combed their locs out (look up combing out microlocs) however, I wouldn't do that personally. If I ever changed my mind, I'd just cut my hair

[@lacreshajohnson5576]

Isnt rhe sides close to the edges more sensitive to less pulling and rugging to not pull out over time?

[@Thatg1rlDanielle]

I'm in GHANA!

[@maryjaneguyton7731]

Hi, I'm a newbie to micolocs (2 months). My question to you if you can give the price in us dollars.

Que lindo!!!!

I may have missed it but how long did it take?

[@M-Izilda]

May I ask, who is your loctician in the UK?

[@Ifeyinwa]

Linked in my bio :)

[@ms.inelus]

Couldn’t see anything even with the close up cam

[@graceoriaghan]

Your locs are gorgeous 🥰 Please can you share Mabel's contact

[@Ifeyinwa]

Thank you so much! I booked her through Enibraids

[@Kim_Ngumbela]

Cries in pain😭 from how expensive reties are here in CT, they're like 50 pounds with today's exchange rate, my braids that I get every 2 months are not even that expensive! 💔 I mean thats expensive here if you're getting paid with the Rand. At the moment, the monthly reties are the only thing still holding me back from committing to micro locs. 🥹 Your hair looks beautiful though😍 every time I see your hair, i get so hyped up to get them😂

[@Ifeyinwa]

Awwww don’t you worry Kim, it’s always like that when there isn’t too much competition but with time as the style becomes more popular (hopefully) the prices should come down.
