[@ShardelHaden]

[@jaishowers4118]

What are you putting on the Locs at the end of the video

[@alanaparis6486]

Did the extensions slip out

[@ShiBoobie88]

This is the exact color I want❤❤❤

[@CantStopThaBoom]

I really look forward to your videos. Excellent work as usual! Q: Would you be able to demonstrate how to do braid (not twists) extensions?

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! I truly appreciate that! Yes I have one of those coming soon. The install is scheduled in October :) Ill be sure to film it

[@lanniereed1494]

[@peekaboo991]

I love you I watch allllllllllll you’re videos cause I’m loc and it helps me ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you!! Im so happy it helps you

[@andreanashay1]

I want to start my locs this way but a little more thicker

[@LittyKittyEnt]

I’m starting out doing loc extensions how much would you charge for services. I want to price things accordingly

[@deborahyearwood1027]

love it...

[@joiedv27]

Very beautiful and the color matched perfectly. Where are you located?

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! I am located in Waldorf MD

[@Im.tiredbruh]

Omg I adore this method better more seamless less tension I hate when I see knotted microloc extensions because it’s so distinctive and unnecessary tension!

[@EssentialBeautyLLC]

Hey, this is beautiful, i have a client that want micro locs installation also. Would you recommend human or synthetic hair

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you! Human hair only

[@SymphonieRose]

I love your work! This color is beautiful!!!! Are these temporary or can be done temporarily!?!

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! These are intended to be permanent. But you could take them out if you wanted too

[@TeresaLCason]

How long should your hair be to start micro locs

[@Teeeci]

Have you tried coiling it and then adding the hair also what if you wanted it like the traditional size rather than micro do you think they will mature with the afro kinky hair.?

[@ShardelHaden]

No.. they would slip right out. I don't di traditional locs with extensions but the ones Ive seen are only done with instalocs

[@MSDIVA-rp3ov]

Beautiful . Does washing the hair elongate the hair and make it easier to work with?

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you! Yes it does!

[@lavishlocsbymeka5149]

U shampoo the hair before installing?

[@bowedheads800]

Are you accepting clients? I love it!!!

[@CanadaPorter18]

How do you twist the hair straight? Mine always comes out crinkled

[@lavishlocsbymeka5149]

Greetings sis.. I’m a fellow loctician myself and i have been thinking of adding this to my services. I do offer micro locs starter locs just not with extensions. I recently had someone ask me to do braid in micro loc extensions and i want to try it.. what length is this hair that you used? I have worked with afro kinky hair before for regular loc extensions but i don’t think i ever had it separate and look like the hair that u are feeding in here.. did u do something special to the hair? Imma go and follow and look at your videos.. thanks for your time

[@ShardelHaden]

Hi! Ok awesome! I used 16 inches. To prep the hair I just soak it in hot water. I show myself doing that in a few of my videos. Please let me know if you have anymore questions. 😊

[@ms405ao]

Hi! Do you have any updates of any of the installs you have done? I’m looking to see what the hair looks like at the first retie then months later. Thanks!

[@ShardelHaden]

Check out my shorts 🙂

[@sarlondaduncan716]

I love your work ❤ how do i go buy getting the lemongrass water

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you ! You can actually order it on amazon to purchase it from a store like MOMS. Distilled water and lemongrass essential oil

[@sarlondaduncan716]

Thank u so much

[@MSDIVA-rp3ov]

Hi are you twisting to the left or the right?

[@myraselby9947]

Great work

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much 😀

[@shirleymccullough1109]

Great job. I wish you were in Greenvill SC, I would be your customer for life.😢

[@ShardelHaden]

Aww thank you so much! 😊

[@puttinGod1st]

I just moved to Spartanburg do you know someone who can do this?

[@EmpowerLocs]

About how much hair do you add to the clients hair. Yes three pieces but how do you base how big those pieces need to be

[@ShardelHaden]

I based it off the density of their hair. So with every client its different

[@JengerbombOfficial]

This is gorgeous!!! How long does the actual process take?

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! 😊 It can take anywhere from 9 to 12 hours to complete. I split it into two days

[@JengerbombOfficial]

@ShardelHaden you're welcome! Do people leave the extentions permanently when started with human hair? That the direction I'm thinking of going in

[@yazzziii7120]

How many pack of hair should use for a fuller look ?

[@meshel4]

Your work is absolutely beautiful. I’m researching getting locs although May I ask have you locked with extensions and left the ends and some of the hair out. If so will the hair still loc or does it in unravel. You are very good at what you do, thank you so much for sharing your talent with us.

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! 😊 Thank you for watching! So I twist almost to the bottom. Some unravel.. others loc faster than others. It's really dependent on how the client takes care of their hair. Its takes a minute for everything to become uniform. 🙂

[@meshel4]

@@ShardelHaden thank you for the prompt response. I will keep watching you have provided me the most context on my research journey so far. Great content.

[@LadyBuggs]

Beautiful work. How long does this take to complete?

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you ! It depends but normally somewhere in-between 9 - 12 hours

[@myraselby9947]

Hello. Is this color ginger or paprika? I love it

[@ShardelHaden]

It was mixed so I cant really put a name on the color

[@rae-81]

Do you have a video where you show installing micro locs on the edges? Can you show how to do the rotation on the edges

[@ShardelHaden]

I will work on filming that. But I normally do a two point rotation depending on the thickness of the edges

[@Familylove1966]

Hey love, I absolutely love your work, how can I book for a consultation?

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! You can book through this link braidsbyshardel.glossgenius.com

[@maryg-hadley3128]

Hello, I was wondering is there any way that you could use yarn to do micro locks because I'm allergic to any type of weave that you could put in your hair. I mean if there is a way you could do it on a video or just tell me how to do it. I done box braids, pencil, braids and single braids with it but I was wondering if there is any way I could do micro locks with it. Is there any way you can help me or tell me about that?

[@ShardelHaden]

Hi! So I wouldn't know since Ive never braided with yarn. My thoughts are; if the style is intended to be permanent then yarn probably wouldn't be the best bet. Have you tried apple cider vinegar rinses for the hair? Also, the hair I use to do micro locs is human hair.. the hair used for braids is normally synthetic.

[@na_ladyliz5055]

I bought the same one. But its so crunchy. How do I make it soft and make the curly ends pop?

[@user-rh5kz5gw2g]

Did you manage to soften the hair. I need to buy some and wondering if its worth it?

[@pixie2cuteu]

Was the hair still damp when you installed it? This is beautiful btw

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you! Yes maam 🥰

[@paulettecelestinecelestine2754]

Good evening, your work is awesome,how much do you charge and where are you located❤❤❤

[@ShardelHaden]

[@ToyCoopedUpOnDaShelf]

Where r u located I'm willing to travel to get my locks done?

[@LovingGod2012]

What shampoo would you recommend for maintenance?

[@ShardelHaden]

I like to use the design essential oat protein shampoo and the honey hydrating one

[@jade-chan3291]

How long does it take the extensions to fuse with the natural hair?

[@ShardelHaden]

Everyone's hair is different. But around 4 months in you should see some locing. Especially in the areas the hair is the thickest

[@peekaboo991]

Great question 🙋🏾‍♀️ cause I was wondering the same ❤

[@shannonl7500]

It took like 4 weeks for me! My hair is fine and appears to be finer than the extension hair used but they are beautiful

[@MACV922]

Where are you located? I want to start my journey love your work.

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! I am located in Waldorf MD 😊

[@rosahughes3671]

[@daniellewilson5293]

Out of all the different hair brands you have used to do microlocs, which brand is your favorite, or would you say is the best? Take into consideration how well it dyes and holds color, texture, volume/pieces per package, price, how long it lasts btwn installs, and how much you have to use or purchase on average. Thank you for your videos ❤.

[@ShardelHaden]

Thank you so much! So my favorites are really based on the clients hair. I think some brands mesh better with certain textures so I wouldn't be able to just pick one. Ive only dyed one brand so far so I would have to test some others to make a fair judgement :)

Since it’s human hair are you able too re dye it different colors?

[@ShardelHaden]

yes maam

[@jcjc8215]

Hi lovely hands can etsy hair is good for this? n what lenght u were using on ur client if i may ask thx

[@ShardelHaden]

I'm not sure.. I haven't ordered hair from Etsy before. This length is 16"

[@jcjc8215]

Ok thank you

[@tonyhutterso4514]

Is this method the same with regular locs

[@ShardelHaden]

Yon mean micro locs without extensions?

[@Naturally5Nik]

When you’re twisting the hair together, are you twisting tightly or loose??👀

[@ShardelHaden]

I am twisting loosely

[@marvalouswill3888]

Hi, I have been watching you video on loc extensions, I would love to loc my hair. I am I. Florida. Where are you located

[@lishalove6774]

How long is the hair you used??

[@ShardelHaden]

16"

[@karengallion2833]

Where are you located I need you to do my hair

[@LadyAnut]

So will these extensions actually loc in time?

[@ShardelHaden]

Yes they will. It's human hair so It'll loc.

[@LadyAnut]

@@ShardelHaden that’s what I thought! There’s a popular loctician who’s telling people that it won’t ever loc with the hair. Also, if I use human kinky hair that is already a color, I could always change the color to something different right?

[@tricepugh5739]

What length did you purchase? I really like her length

[@LadiiJustus]

16 inches

[@ggj417]

I did mine using this method and had slippage. I guess it depends on the texture of your hair as well

[@ShardelHaden]

Slippage happens regardless.. yes there can be more if you have softer texture hair but it a normal occurrence with any install

How mini packs do you need for a whole head of hair

[@ShardelHaden]

I would get 4 packs to be safe

[@JMV55]

Hey Beautiful, so I see you have a deposit fee in order to book your spot ..I’m a stylist and I hear so many horror stories with Clients trying to walk out and not pay … when do you collect your final payment for this style is it upfront or after the style is completed ❤

[@SmithBSmith210]

I’m not a stylist, but………….my stylist gets hers when it’s a little under halfway through. She hasn’t had a problem so far.

[@ShardelHaden]

Hi! Thank god I haven't had a problem with clients paying up to this point. But when booking through my site it collects their card information so If necessary, I can collect through that avenue.

[@iturnheadzinkc3996]

Where can I order the human hair?

[@ShardelHaden]

[@Vee-ot6zf]

How many pack does a whole head needs

[@ShardelHaden]

It really depends on density but having four on hand is safe

[@ItsToya-]

How many packs did you use ?

[@ShardelHaden]

I end up using about 2.5 bundles

[@user-nw8uf2tp2r]

Hello omg love your work do you use and products when doing the installations?

[@user-ql3bh5bn5q]

Hello May I please ask where you are and how much such a style would cost Thx

Hi! Waldorf, Maryland. You can check out pricing through this link braidsbyshardel.glossgenius.com

[@godsaveyourpeope]

Is there a reason you don’t attach from the root?

[@LadiiJustus]

Because then there will be a knot within the loc which can cause future issues when it starts to loc up.

[@lindym8308]

Can these be undone?

[@ShardelHaden]

Yes but they are intended to be permanent

[@iamjenniferlee]

How much loose hair do you leave on the end to be curly?

[@ShardelHaden]

The hair itself is curly so the ends of the twist curl up regardless
