"Comparison is the thief of joy" I'm taking this with me

🙏🏾✨

[@jpeterson4704]

I started my journey 3 weeks ago and I'm loving the journey. I am so attentive to my little baby locs and i don't know I just feel sooooo free! Thanks for the video and the comparison line, I so needed that. I found myself looking at other peoples locs seeing how many locs they had etc. Mine are beautiful, this process is beautiful and I will enjoy my journey without interference. God Bless.

[@JaeCemma]

Thank you so much for receiving it! Congratulations on your new loc journey! You’ll grow more in love with the growth and evolution of your locs and yourself as time passes. Peace and love ❤️🙏🏾

I want to start locs because I don’t really like to do anything with my hair I want to just do a style and go and these are really useful tips. Your locks are beautiful too!

[@JaeCemma]

You should definitely go for it. Locs have made life so easy breezy and it was a great choice for maintenance and lifestyle

“Don’t pull hair from the end of your locs” BIGGEST takeaway I got from this 😭😭😭 I been pulling those out thinking they were gonna fall out anyway!

Me too

[@carolinasrichgirl]

I just started my loc journey with coils like 2 days ago, i don’t like it😂maybe i’m just an impatient person but i can’t wait for it to lock up so that i can style it🙂

[@JaeCemma]

We’ve all been there and next thing you know you’re locd up and wondering where the time went 😂

[@prettypinkpunk]

I just want to say thank you for this video bc it was extremely educational. My bf is having some discrimination problems at his work with his natural hair and has asked me to loc his hair for him since I have cosmetology experience and bc we cant afford to go to a professional locktician atm. Unfortunately though my cosmetology experience was also very white-led and we didnt learn much about how to do hair for black people (one of the reasons I left the school I was at) and I found your video and it is going to help so much.

[@JaeCemma]

Thank you 🙏🏾 I hate that you and your boyfriend are experiencing these inequalities. I appreciate you for receiving these tips and I wish you great success as you continue to expand your experience with natural hair and cultivating locs 🙏🏾

[@kingj1245]

Thanks for the tips. This is my second time going locs and I do agree with everything your saying. Right now I am rocking a bob with my locs at first I was like how would I wear my hair when I go to work and then I realize a little make up and fluff my hair and I look so damn fine... keep sharing your videos

Thank you so much 🙏🏾

[@sweetmother_ofthemosthigh]

I went to my stylist today and complained to him that my dread don't look like dread and he laughed and said your dread is just 2 weeks 😆😆😆

[@Selah_Negus]

I'm two weeks in - I started them myself with two strand twists. Totally product free. I live in Ethiopia and I have a guava tree in the garden so I rinse them with guava water every few days. I've rinsed them in the shower every day since day one and they haven't unravelled at all. I might just let them freeform from now on. This is my second set feels so much more of an organic journey this time.

[@JaeCemma]

Wow this is so interesting and exciting! I’m so happy for you and the journey you’re on cultivating your crown. Much love ❣️

[@donnab79]

Guava water sounds soo nice

[@mom.1372]

I’m almost 8 months on my journey and I definitely said that I’m not gonna know how to act when all my locs hit shoulder length. The front of my hair is holding me back. Patience is also the thief of joy and not a virtue of mine. 😁

[@JaeCemma]

Same. My locs are growing in layers so the length was hard to notice at first but now it’s sneaking up on me! You got this 👏🏾

[@mom.1372]

@@JaeCemma thank you 😊

[@janey_oge8865]

What angers me the most is when someone thinks they are kind enough to yank off the balls dangling at the ends of the proposed locs!! I am like...excuse me...don’t touch my hair much less yank at it!!!😡😡😅😅😅

[@JaeCemma]

My mom was doing that and I had to create a no pull policy lol 😂

[@aliciap3994]

your locs are beautiful!! and i think that because they will never get really thick like that as they grow they won’t really be heavy and you’ll be able to be a lot more versatile... i’m only 70 days in but that’s just what i think. thanks for the tips!

I just started my loc journey with the two-strand twist method and I am 1week in. I'm feeling a little stressed with the parting system in the front. I have been considering taking them down and starting over. Good luck on your journey.

[@standupbcounted2420]

@@JaeCemma I am using the two strand twist, started over a month ago, but just went a week ago and had my two strand twists done by my long time braider. I wore braids forever and would use extra hair. However, I am excited to not use extra hair added into my natural hair. I feel so free and already see a difference in growth, since I normally have shoulder length hair. My hair was damaged but now I can see a difference in the health of my hair. Thank you for sharing. Your hair is beautiful. Peace and blessings to you 👍💞

Ok so I need to stop pulling the ends of mine becauuuusse whew... those balls drive me crazy. Thanks for the info

[@JaeCemma]

Yes ma’am ! They are super annoying but once I saw what they were doing to my ends I stopped pulling them immediately 🤗

[@Kaybri0526]

Right the balls drive me crazy, when I was a loose natural I ALWAYS wore wraps because when I’m bored I keep my hands in my hair. Now that I’ve been loced for a little over 4 months now I still do it and I can’t wrap my hair at work, so now as soon as I get home I have a wrap waiting for me at the door to keep me from messing with my hair

[@JaeCemma]

I had hand in hair syndrome in the beginning and it honestly fades over time once you grow accustomed to your new hair 😊

[@simplicityiskey5519]

Your hair will loc eventually whether you pull the ends or not, it will just take longer to loc.

Thank you for this video. I'm also 17 months in my loc journey and have low density, low porosity hair. I was just considering chopping off my locs because I was dissatisfied with not seeing my hair type in videos and feeling as though something was wrong. I will embrace what I've got and walk the good, bad, and ugly of the journey.

[@JaeCemma]

You’re so welcome! I have yet to see locs that look exactly like mine so it is really all about loving them the way they are.

[@thelocdvegan6770]

I hope you didn't cut your hair. No two 'loc heads' are the same. I don't think there is a 'wrong way' in cultivating locs in terms of look. Hang in there....

[@JaeCemma]

Yes ma’am! I dilute it as well because it is so milky. Locs need hydration too 🤗

[@BajanBoo]

I love your locs journey. You have nice length and full size locs that will look stunning as they continue to progress. I’m trying to start my journey now but my locs are kind of thin because I don’t have a full set of hair like yours because I kept shaving my hair off, if I did trust the process, I would of been 4 years within the locs journey and would of gotten better results. Anyways, fingers cross this time 😂❤

I just subscribed to your channel. I love your hair! I am thinking about starting my loc journey, and have been doing my research 🔬 on it to make sure I just about no all I can before I get started. I am so late to the game but better late than never as they say. My hair is short right now, shaved on the sides and back and I just started letting it grow back so i assume I need to wait alittle while for it to grow back. I’m gonna stalk your channel to learn all I can. I have been watching so many videos and I learned the word, “webbing” from you because I had no idea what that was, so thanks for sharing your journey.

[@notsoshy28]

I also liked what you said about don’t compare your hair to others because we all have to have our own journey. I was already doing that with your hair. I had just told my husband that I wanted my hair to be like yours, but like you said your hair is dense and will never have thicker locs. My hair is also dense but may be denser than yours, I won’t no until I get started, so thanks for those suggestions

There is belief that locs hold energy in them. So just as you cleanse your hair, you can charge it to. Basically the same way I meditate to cleanse and charge by body, I do the same for my locs every now and again.

I've been contemplating on getting locs for a few years now, but after coming across your page I am making the choice to start my journey at the end of this month. I was drawn to your videos/energy. I do have one question. What did you put on your two strands twist when you first started your starter locs? Any curling creams or oils?

[@JaeCemma]

That is amazing! I’m excited for you to begin you journey ☺️ I only used water and some aloe vera gel on the ends to hold them.

[@afrikurl]

How are things going?

[@mizzropella]

@@afrikurl so far, so good! Today makes 7 weeks that I've started my journey. The 3 week mark, my scalp was really itchy. I used vitamin E and peppermint oil to oil my scalp. No major issues since then. In the morning I spray my hair with Rosewater/Vitamin E and head out the door.

@@mizzropella what did you twist your hair with to hold them together in the beginning/starting your locs?

Thank you for this video. It's very educational. I'm about 2 weeks in and sort of feel like I'm doing it wrong. I know that I'm doing everything I'm supposed to. Maybe over watering? My scalp is very sensitive so I've already washed it so I know I need to find something to really combat the itch that leads to washing.

[@jalovlie]

Have you tried clove tea spray or ACV rinse?

[@JaeCemma]

So much time has passed that I need to update my dos and donts but over saturation or dryness could lead to irritation. I’d try using less moisture to balance everything out.

[@KellyKels23]

I’ve been natural for a long time now but I just finger coiled my hair a couple nights ago however they don’t look even as full as yours which is fine, my main concern is just that it’s a little straighter due to heat damage and the ends aren’t curling up. I cut off the straight ends in hopes they’ll stay coiled as they grow back out. I’m not good at parting my hair so I just kind of free handed it as well so hoping it doesn’t look too crazy.

[@JaeCemma]

Your finger coils will definitely expand over time. Fullness all depends on loc method and maintenance.

I started my loc journey 2 days ago Feb 15th. But I am having issues because of the length. Its a little shorter than i expected. I got instant locs. But I am so excited still aboit the journey. I just don't know how long its going to take lol

[@JaeCemma]

Congratulations on your new journey! 🍾🎉🎈 Fortunately length comes easily with healthy locs. As long as you keep your hair and scalp healthy, the length will sneak up on you. Believe me 😂

I have cut my hair twice in the past 4 years because it won’t grow equal and my edges won’t grow so I been thinking about starting lock but my state doesn’t have any shops that do locks other than white hairs which is easier to do than black thicker hair . I need some ideas on how I can start my own locks at home

My daughter is just starting to lock and I was told to get her a silk scarf for her hair.

[@JaeCemma]

Silk scarves work as well.

Hello, I was wondering what was the product you mentioned at 3:55! I would love to get it for my hair! Great video by the way

[@JaeCemma]

I linked his website in the description box. Thank you !🙏🏾

@@JaeCemma thank you so much for your reply! What is it called exactly? The green product?

[@JaeCemma]

I found the exact product www.daleynaturals.com/product-page/sister-locks-dreadlocks-and-braid-moisturizing-spray

[@maureenayeh]

What's the oil called again and where can I get one?

[@jazzylulu22]

I’m two weeks in and I definitely follow these steps. My sister is almost 3 years loc’d so she’s been a huge help with my transition. I haven’t experienced the little balls at the ends but I know not to mess with them lol. I’m probably bout to get clowned but I don’t cover my hair in the shower. I let the humidity and moisture penetrate my hair while I shower and after I’m done I seal the moisture in with my own oil blend.

[@JaeCemma]

I don’t cover my hair in the shower either. It’s actually one of my favorite things about being loc’d. I’ve never liked getting my sleeping cap wet but I don’t like shower caps either. 😂

[@jazzylulu22]

@@JaeCemma I’m glad I’m not the only one. Plus I get my length back in the shower lol. My starter locs are a little shorter than yours and when they’re dry they shrink up so the shower moisture gives my length back lol.

[@JaeCemma]

@@jazzylulu22 SHRINKAGE IS REAL. My hair is always longest on wash day and the day I retie.

[@jazzylulu22]

@@JaeCemma I’m slowly learning that and embracing it lol. My first retwist is coming up and I’m excited

Yasss!!! Come thru growth 🙏🏾
