Starter Locs at Home (START TO FINISH) | Detailed Talk Thru Tutorial

Today I want to show you how to get starter locs at home (from START to FINISH). This video is a detailed talk through tutorial that only requires minimal tools to start. It's easy! I hope this helps those of you who are thinking about starting your loc journey at home during this quarantine. Anyone can start dreadlocks at home without a professional Loctician. Here is how I do it.
(btw: I am not a professional - However I have started my own locs with two-strand twists. I have had my locs now for three and a half years. )

Thanks for posting this rare brilliant straightforward video! Also, no special products or tools needed; just common sense and time. For those already comfortable with twisting their own hair, it is an inspiring boost to get you started on your loc journey! I am so going to do this! 🎊 🎉

[@_sppectra]

I’m tired of covering my hair all the time so I wanted a long-term hairstyle. This video was sooo helpful tysm!

[@DesireeMarie]

Happy to help!

[@hershegurl05]

Just took down my 3rd style, spent over 600$ on styles that didn’t last, styles that I went to the car crying about ugly styles. I know this will look good and I can sport it messy and figure it out on my own with help of videos like this.

[@nikkichristinar]

Don't have locs anymore but you made me want to twist my hair. It did have me inching to start them again. You did great!

[@crystalclearaswater7198]

Thank you. This video is what I needed. Very simple.

[@locdfitgirl6629]

I love how her starter locs turned out. I’m glad you mentioned that the shine doesn’t last on starter locs. I was trying to figure what was going on with mine

[@unno2326]

I've been wondering what's going on with mine too

[@itsmelizc5337]

Would love to see an update on her locs in a few months. Did she request the middle part down the back?

[@tylersalvador2437]

A trick : you can watch movies at flixzone. I've been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

[@nikolaisawyer2392]

@Tyler Salvador yea, have been watching on flixzone for years myself :D

[@aquaopa1]

Good job! Love the nail color too. Would love to see an update in a few months.

[@ShanaT1908]

They look awesome!!

[@vividflower1]

Could you please post an update on her progress…great job on the install!

[@nkechidouglas5541]

Nicely done. Kudos to you.

[@TankaVizion2]

Des.. Hunny!!! Aww.. it looks SO GOOD! You did PHENOMENAL job! Ijs.. I think I should be next.. 🤔 I was there I'm spirit.. getting TIRED just watching you do it so nice & neat! 🤦🏽‍♀️I felt like I was having sympathy pains while you were doing her hair. 🤷🏽‍♀️ My fingers were swelling.. shoulders hurting, back & feet joined in aching.. It was TOO real then I realized I was having a Lupus flare!! ☺️😊😆😂

[@nandy7122]

I braided my hair about 4 weeks ago to start my second set of locks. I'm just not used to having loose natural hair anymore lol

[@Its.nice2b_nice]

*1-21-2023 this is exactly what I want, you did a really great job, I love the ⬛ 's that's how I want mine to look {smiles}*

[@MrMaYor82]

I want a diamond parting system but the last loctician did triangles and a bigger size locs than I wanted. So I'm thinking about doing it myself so the parting and size of the locs will be how I want them.

[@4ourchildren66]

You did real good!

[@DesireeMarie]

Thank you! ❤️

[@paris6378]

Great job.

[@joyisprincess]

Braidlocs! Great way to start locs, especially if you like to wash your hair frequently. I've done two different set of locs this way.

[@fatimamanneh9432]

I started mines with braids also I don’t know why she keeps saying the braid pattern takes a long time to disappear mines only took 7 months i have 4c hair it will lock no matter what method you use

[@notsoshy28]

I just did 2 strand twist to see as you stated if I will like locs. I have done 2 strand twist before but have not kept them in for to long. The install was fast because I have shaved sides and back, but the only thing I noticed is I don’t like the product I used, and I no I used way to much, it was sopping with product and now my hair is crunchy, so when I take these out I will try something else and way less product.

[@princessharmon8561]

This looks exactly like mines . I am now in the shrinkage stage . 🎉

[@Bae-ib2ib]

I’m considering doing the organic/freestyle parting system

[@ZealPlex]

Nice Video keep uploading

[@Rose2gard]

thanks for the video

[@paris6378]

Very cute. I did my locs myself on June 21, 2023.

[@ReyMeta]

I want to do the same really soon; was the process easy for you?

[@mattielittle3897]

Hello! Thank you for showing this and talking to us. I was wondering if her locs will grow different in the back because they start with braids and then lead into twists? My hair is also a looser texture in the back so I was thinking of doing the same and I was wondering if that changes anything.

[@NicoleCap23]

I love the 2 strand twist locs! My son wants locs. Is it ok to start them a little bigger?

[@jasminepenix2985]

Im about to do my loc in the soon

[@merlenemarshall2574]

❤️❤️

[@locdfitgirl6629]

❤️

[@My9EtherHair]

Very Nice! How many locs does she have? Thank you! 🥰🌸

[@simplesweetjoy16]

I want to do the brick since it will give that coverage to look full in the beginning

[@DC-tv9fj]

Great job!

[@jadaskyysreality]

Does it still loc with the plait at the root

[@corrijackson]

Is there an update

[@rubystephens4338]

How long did she wait before washing her hair after the install

[@user-uu3ir2vp5b]

Is this considered small traditional locs or micro?

[@p0pular.lonerrr]

Can i use shea butter to start my locs ?

[@StingingStilettos]

I started my own locs too, there not locd yet tho, im one month in

[@latoya6943]

Naturally Morgan I’m 2 weeks in ☺️

[@charaboston1566]

Naturally Morgan started my own as well mine are not fully locked but I’m 8.5 months in

[@infinitytripstravel6055]

But isn’t that a braid?

[@darkbrownquti]

Why Part down the middle? I was told that that should never be.

[@charaboston1566]

Apryl I really i never heard that before ? Why is that and do they mean not to part down the middle just in the back or not to part down the middle at all ?

[@Budgetingeverypenny]

I have a middle part so that I can wear my hair down the middle or to the side I think it’s up to you.

[@rihannaohara4327]

Good job

[@5pearls1920]

I started my locs with crescent parts. I’ll be 2 years in June.

[@jessicashemone]

Hers would have been better to be started with braid locs or comb coils

[@wangarikamau1118]

My OCD is out here thinking that this is not a middle part. It’s a bit lopsided😖😖

[@Rose2gard]

use the word professional loosely because these people are not Professional !
