I’ve been looking to loc my hair for a few years now. I received quotes for the initial installation and quickly realized it was way over my budget. In this video I talk about the methodology used to install my starter locs, as well as tips and tricks to help along the way. Enjoy!

I started mine today🤦 working in sections definitely helps. Started around 9a this morning and still have the entire middle to do. So far so good🤞 took a few breaks in between

Thanks for subbing! I've been slacking with posting. Lately, i've been using the 2 point retie bc it makes it less tight and more bouncy. Plus it goes by quicker. I'll do a video on it soon!

I need help with the parting grid. Maybe I'm overcomplicating it but not sure how to decide. Anywhoo.. your locs and skin are gorgeous
@efuaabby
@efuaabby 3 жыл бұрын
the parting took me a few hours not gonna lie. I found it easier to part down the middle and across the back into 4 big sections. Then take each section and break it down into smaller working sections. If it works for you then go with it, if it feels forced then take a step back and find a different approach. Can you phone a friend to help?

They are so pretty! Approx. How many do you have on your head? I did mine 2 years ago and they were bigger and I had over 200 on mine so in sure you're pushing the 500-600 mark. But congrats they are stunning on you.

Thank you! I had almost 400 when I first started. However, some strands were too thin for my liking once the locking began. It's been a year now and I stand at 300 locs

I actually do not. I have dandruff on some parts of my scalp and that takes a few washes to get out. I only use leave-in conditioner and oils in my hair. Occasionally there is gel residue when i lay my edges but it comes out in the wash
