Priscilla Ayerite you just made my whole morning 🖤 thank you so much for the kind words! Im happy I was able to save you some coins on your retightenings

I hope you can do a video on the topic of locked hair lies they tell.....lol. especially sisterlocks lies! don't wash your hair for six weeks' braid and band', don't condition your hair, the list goes on and on of which all of it is lies, lies, lies! May apply to a select few. Maybe mixed race or those with naturally straight hair. If one spent any significant amount of time detangling loose natural, what could possibly happen to interlocked hair😁? Absolutely nothing! I tried to not wash the 1st 3 weeks. I had serous eczema for months from that nonsense!

@@Nollyfan oooo that would be a good topic to cover!

@@Nollyfan I am a loose natural girl, but from my experience (I could be wrong) the eczema was from keeping the sebum build-up on your scalp. Your scalp needs to breathe. You don’t need to wash your hair with shampoo to get rid of it. And actually when you first stop washing your hair with shampoo, and stripping your scalp of it’s natural oils, your scalp naturally starts excessively spitting out all this wonderful sebum. I used that extra sebum to coat the rest of my hair. It slows down after a while. After using what I need for my hair, I take a little cotton cloth and wipe away the sebum and dead skin off my scalp so it can breathe. This prices has to be done with wet scalp and hair. When wet, the sebum a gooey paste, easy to remove and coat hair. Disclaimer: I am a 7 year, loose natural girl with low density, 4a/4b hair that ONLY uses water on my hair. No shampoo. No conditioner. No gels. No oils. No products what so ever. I’m loc-curious. I’m looking for a new experience.

@@TheQeen7909 Me too! :) I Water Only Hair Wash on KZfaq years ago and it has been the best thing/method for my hair. I'll be loc'ing soon. Be Well!

@@NapsAreTheNewBlack You’re welcome ☺️!

Lifewithash thanks! And yessss thats super exciting

@@NapsAreTheNewBlack congrats on the locs I want to start my journey wit like that also only thing how how long would I have to wait until I can wash them and how can I pervent thinning locs and build up/dandrift

Thank you! I hope she loves her hair ❤️

She uses the 2 point rotation to do her retie so the locs will remain pretty much the same unlike a 4 point rotation

Microlocs & MORE thank you!

Kieonna S thanks! And you should be able to wash as often as you want if you interlock

Thank you for your support 😊

Thank you!! Im going to check out your page!!

Naps Are The New Black...I appreciate that! Thanks so much! ❤️

My grid could also be better in the back. You accomplished something when you did them yourself. I'm glad you are happy with the result.

@@NapsAreTheNewBlack Thank you, I'm only about a month and half in but am enjoying them.

thank you!

thank you!

YAYY welcome to the loc fam ❤️

n2meuc2 yayy that is so awesome, im glad you love your hair ❤️

Thank you! And those are my thoughts exactly. Next year our length will be popping 💁🏽‍♀️

Thank you so much! Glad you love your locs :)

thanks! I started med school a few weeks ago ☺️

DJ Fowler yes i loved henna as a loose natural, im excited to see how the experience goes with my locs

SeXXyBlacc time fliesss after those first few months, just wait and see!

FENETI thank you! I love your videos too, you were definitely one of my loc inspirations 🖤

Kraxy Kam thank you! And you dont go in the same direction back to back with the two point. For example I go up, then to the side, then up, and then to the side again. My moisture routine is just to spray my hair whenever it feels dry, which is how Ive done it the entire time!

Great tip! Although my boyfriend hates the bonnet lol

yay! I hope you love your install :)

Wow, thank you!

@@NapsAreTheNewBlack very welcome, I get mine installed Tuesday

QualRich BEATZ thank you 🖤🖤

ctfemme1 thank you!

I'm curious, what's the difference between micros, small locks and traditional locks? Is it the count?

Same lol

@@hawtnsweet the sizes are different, traditional locs are bigger kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jM-pjZeK0qvWYqs.html

afrikurl I used henna alot last year as a loose natural, so I want to try henna before switching to dye, since they dont mix well. And thanks!

Thank you so much 😀

Sorry! I am just seeing this. I can show the lint in my next video :)

Tia J i dont think it is from the oils. I tried going without product for a week after a wash. The only thing it accomplished was making my hair super dry. I was still finding new lint stuck to my hair in that week. I really think it is just because I wear alot of cotton and because my hair texture is very cottony feeling. Like attracts like, just like with chemistry I guess 😂

Thank you!

Thank you! 😊

I just wrap loose hairs around the loc they belong to ☺️

Thank you!

janisa reeves sisterlocks take longer to thicken up because they start as interlocks. I would give it more time. If you really dont like the look you can combine them later!

@@NapsAreTheNewBlack I figured that. I was just thinking that. I told myself I would wait at least until my 2 year mark to really give them time to mature. 😊

Yeah, I noticed that sisterlocks show more length earlier on and twist locs show more volume. The volume should catch up with your sisterlocks. I'm 14 months in and the volume is definitely visible.

@@kellya3162 Thank you 😊 I just have to have patience.

density and rotation also plays a role. Give it time.

Lorna Phillips thank you!

Yep!

thanks, you are too kind 🖤

Kelly A thanks! And they do not extend as much as they used to, i might only get another half inch to an inch when I stretch them, and some don’t stretch much at all. The lack of stretch gives me hope that they are in fact maturing even if the twist pattern is still there lol

@@NapsAreTheNewBlack that's really good! You should be done with the shrinkage.

Kelly A I hope so!

Catherine King thanks 😊

Kraxy Kam hmmm id say around month 8 was my last wave of shrinkage lol. So Im not sure that itll stop shrinking even now. Most of the time locs will stop shrinking once they are fully mature.

I noticed around a year in shrinkage get significantly less.

Thanks! And I never braided and banded. My hair texture kept my twists together by making coils at the ends

Thanks! and design essentials avacado one. I show it in my updated wash routine.

I have a hair steamer that I sit under sometimes
