I started my microloc journey on 04/08/23. My hair is about 4 to 4.5 inches. I was excited and ashamed at the same time, it has been 1 week and I’m amazed at how it has filled out. I can’t wait to see it in 6weeks, oh and I’m loving my curl pattern. This was the best decision I made for my hair.

She is spot on. I got established in July 2022 with about 4inches of hair. Not gone lie. I had to get used to it. You feel awkward and there are not a lot of styling options. But I’m at around month 6. And the girls are popping. They have fattened up and they are uniformed and beautiful. If you go short you won’t regret it. But you’ll have to trust the process for real. 😌 P.S. don’t mind my profile pic. I haven’t updated yet. Lol

Thank you so much for this, in 2021 I started with loc extensions I had them for 6 months the extensions was not allowing my hair to loc, I took them out rather cut them out. I cut my hair off I only had 6inches or so but it was damaged, I cut it down to bout 2 inches and 2 strand twisted I hung in there so embarrassed of my thin hair I was a mess emotionally. I’m 52 why am I ashamed because just now at my big ole age I saw myself I hadn’t saw her in a long time. Now here I am 9 months in and I’m so proud of me!

Great advice! I will be 9 months locd tomorrow. My hair was barely shoulder length and it shrunk right up the first 2 weeks I was locd. I locked my hair for length retention. I was a little sad to see the shrinkage but that sad left as soon as I realized how easy my locs were to maintain. 9 months has seen them grow in length so they look the length my loose natural hair was when I started. The good news is length retention is not the goal for my locs anymore. I love them whatever their length. I will probably trim them when they get too long. I feel like I have a few years before I have to make that decision.

This is a really good topic/ video! My natural hair is about 17 in stretched. I never thought about locking my hair, but for health reasons, (breast cancer), it's difficult for me to manage now. That's why I'm thinking about locking it long. So, I have a question: When you lock long hair and it shrinks up, doesn't that give it more volume? Doesn't it look full and gorgeous tho'? Also, I saw a video short of yours where you cut off your long locs. Have you ever thought about making donations to cancer patients when your clients want to cut their locs? I am doing alternative natural cancer treatment, so I still have my hair so far. But many cancer patients lose their hair during or after chemotherapy. What a self-esteem booster it would be for Black cancer patients to get a wig made from those beautiful long locs!

Yea I want to start fresh when I get my sister locks. I cut my hair down to 1 1/2 inch. By the time I get it locked, it will grow a little more.

I love starting locs on that length. You're going to love it

Oh you Haitian! Lit! I actually have a good amount of hair. I don't want to cut it. I'm doing it myself lol

Just locked my hair yesterday. My hair is shorter and took 16 hours. I have looser hair so it was extra work to seal the ends from unraveling. But I LOVE them so far.

I started my sister locks with a short Bob 7" in front and 4" in the back. At 36 months my hair was bra strap length, but the whole time my locks were growing the back locks were always shorter and loss. Around 30 months they started locking and hanging, but the locks on the ends were really fat. I braid and band every time I washed my hair. I hated the thick ends, so at 36 months I cut about 5" off. I love my locks now that they are the same width. I also liked my locks when they were short.

Most people miss the short look after it's long. Glad you were able to get rid of the fast ends.

I started on October 13, 2022 with 6” and I have some slippage around the edges (🤫 started using Sea Salt Spray) on the ends to try and help with the slippage. I sweat a lot; post-menopausal (I think that may be the cause of it) and I have 3c hair type.

The spray would definitely help but the sweating is interfering as well. But it will eventually loc

I got my microlocs of 10 inches on May 28th 2022, now at 7 months, I'm experiencing quite a number of bunching. I have 2 short pieces of hair , 1 at the nape and the other at the front and baby they're loc'd

That's so true, I locked my hair when it was 6inches long , at 3month they were already looking locked, my hair is coarse and dense though 😃 anyone that's not looking locked would be because I retwisted it😊

I love your videos! This has nothing to do with your video topic, but I have a request none the less. If you haven’t already could you do a video on the difference between locs and loose natural hair? To be more specific, I’ve been watching a lot of things sisterlocked/Microlocs and was shocked by how people treat them the same as they did their loose natural hair. There was a woman with sisterlocs who said she wears her locs in an updo so her hair doesn’t rub against her blouse and cause damage. Is that really a thing? How and why would locs be as fragile as loose natural hair? What are your thoughts

@bougiebohemian5393 Жыл бұрын

Sisterlock wearer and former long hair loose natural here! So I wear my locks in an updo during cooler months to avoid my hair picking up lint off my clothes, specifically coats and sweaters. Hope that answers your question. @tikitmb

My hair length is about 1in. I recently shaved my hair & it’s growing in. I’m a cosmetologist and done many styles. I’m at the point I want something new & low maintenance. I’ve always loved locs & ready to start my sisterloc journey. I’ve been doing research and I came across your channel. Would I be able to a sister locs establishment? I keep hearing ppl say 4.5/6in to loc for short hair.

Started my 2nd set of sisterlocks at about 5in. Was leary at first, but then I thought, its still going to be short while waiting on growth, so might as well allow it to grow locked.....lol

@carmelitasingleton1381 Жыл бұрын

Love your videos! Does the fast locking process apply to hair with relaxed ends as well? I’ve been locked for 11 months. I started with 8 to 10 inches of relaxed hair and I now have about 4/5 inches of locked new growth.. Was just curious of when I cut the relaxer off will my sisterlocks be completely locked matured.?..

Yes, if you cut at about year 1 or two, the natural part will be locd even if the straight part isn't

I have clients transitioning from undercuts and don’t want to wait to loc their entire head. Can you do a video of how to start microlocs on short hair? I have tried and have had difficulty with gripping and slippage (especially for those with a softer texture). Please help!!!

@sofieblu Жыл бұрын

Loving the content, but...I would love to see something about dealing with short, thin hair. My locs are 4 inches to 6 inches long, but due to low density I look like a badly plucked chicken. I know it's a journey but having low density, thin hair is really not easy to love the 'transition stage...sorry but if does feel like the ugly stage'. Any content for those of us who have low density, thin hair. Much love for your content, advice and passion.

I don't have many contents about low densiy, thin hair yet but I will surely take note of this and try to come up with a content about it. This time I have this video and I hope you can get something from it. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jLaigsVp1qzDfIk.html. Thank you for supporting!
