I have C-parts now .. and I wasn’t sure that I liked how it was parted in the front because my “middle part” was so jacked up … but it looked so nice in up-styles … and after a few weeks following my retwists , I fell in love with its fullness and how it all fell together

I have freestyle/random parting, started with comb coils, I’m in my 6th year closely heading to year 7, and I love them!! Started and never looked back.. unless I’m doing a length check 🤣👏🏾🙌🏾

I have fine hair and have the block parting and I hate it too much scalp for days! I will be getting my locs cut off and starting over for the C parting system. I am 14 months into my journey and rather start over now than later.

I think the brick pattern covers parts. The hair falls in between the parts. I normally do my box braids in that pattern also when the hair is sparse.

I have diamond/triangle parts...its pretty much diamond all around until the top middle and left side which are straight because I HAD TO HAVE a middle and side part lol. This made those loc parts triangle. I'm 5 months in...no extentions.

Thank you for this informative video, I plan on starting my loc journey in three weeks, I’m so excited 😆 I have been researching for weeks. Thanks for sharing this information 🙏🏾

I started mine following more of a box braid kind of pattern and I think it makes it easy for me to do many hair styles because the locs can move easily in either direction. To keep my roots full, I retwist once a year

currently restarting my loc journey due to parting so glad i found this video

I just started with the 2nd system grab and go I love it. It was super simple to do.

Starting mine tomorrow. This was so helpful!

This is exciting! I can't wait to start my dreads next year! Diamond parting is the way to go!

Through my recent research I’ve also come across triangle parts wish look really good too! We got so many options! 🤗

This was SUPER helpful and informative. Thanks for doing this video. I’m starting my loc journey Next month!

Your channel is about to have me save 600-700 dollars 😍✨

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="219">3:39</a> is definitely my fav. I'm going with that one. THanks sooooooo much for the content

HI! I have freestyle/random parting. LOVE IT! Diamond parting is pretty too though :-)

I plan on starting my locks in January I want a diamond pattern with the comb coil method.

Many thanks for this simple informative video, getting locks done today, just wanted to make sure I had chosen the right partying system. So thumbs up 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾for your video!! Stay blessed 🙏🏾🌞 Update: I had the diamond pattern for my instant locks, it’s perfect for my hair type (fine ), my scalp is well covered and it looks fuller! So it’s perfect Thank you so much for your explanation

I am on my 3rd.... the first didn last long she gave me 52 comb coils and c parts... my friend did em.... then I got home like ummm yeeeea so these will too damn big and my hair is too damn fine! The second time (I considered the real first time) was pretty much immediately after the first she did free parting but they looked pretty square... they were cool but we settled on interlocking (which I never really wanted cuz of that textured look they have) since my hair is so fine and soft... I had those for 4mos and due to the fact I jus didn want my hair interlocked (and the fact my hair was sooo damn short and b/w retightings it just looked ridiculous! I was starting on like a lil 2.5in twa!) i just could not with them lil bitty damn sprouts!!! That set was medium size... Now I’m on my 3rd set (I let my hair grow out to 8/9inches) I said fuck all this “advice”... I’m doing them myself using the two strand twist method and did a grid parting system (which took forever)... I went a little smaller jus to be safe (can always combine but I’d rather not try to split)... I use to didn’t want the brick parting system because I did NOT want the scalpy look but wen I realized it was only during a fresh retwist I was like ok... I can rock with that... I want a fresh look wen it’s a fresh retwist... and I wanted to be able to part my hair certain ways... So this journey so far has been all good... I still feel cute... I’m able to maintain my hair easily (I’ve always wanted to self maintain)... I didn’t have to use anything but oil and water to do the twists... I can style it a little... And I was able to do my hair EXACTLY how I wanted them and the size I wanted... From what I’ve heard diamonds are pure ascetics... they have no purpose other than being cute... I’ve noticed they only stay diamond/triangle if you continuously go to a loctician. I’m happy with my choice... sometimes you really gotta go with your gut!!! ☺️

Hair density also matters. With thick and high dense hair, it seems to be easier to maintain your locs yourself if you have like a square or diamond shape verses the C shape because it's easier to know which strands goes where. With C shape, over time your strands is just every where in the wrong loc base plus the locs marry easily. If you plan on styling your hair it matters, if not then it doesnt really matter that much. Another thing is that it'll be hard to clean it back unless you go to a professional. I know from experience. If you have thick hair that's high density hair, you're less likely to get that easily visible neat look vs those with less dense hair. Oh... Retwisting takes longer with C parting because for each locs youre trying to figure out which strands belongs to which loc base by just the sense of feeling alone. With C parts, the scalp doesnt really show much even after a retwist. it's not a problem if you get your maintenance done by someone that can see your entire head. I can't speak on how it's like when it's interlocked tho.

This video was very informative. I've just started my loc journey 1 week ago (Dec.5). I have 64 locs which were pre made before my appointment. I'm obsessed with my hair and my new bold look. look forward to more videos!!

Thank you this video!! It was very helpful. Surprisingly I could not find a video straight to the point which I appreciate tremendously

I started off with a part. I hated it. My locs were small and it was very hard to determine where to twist. I’m taking them out now. I’m going to restart them bigger with the brick lay

Exactly why I’m watching this video starting ova!!!

I wanted the diamond parts but I hear it makes the base of the loc weak over time. Thank you for posting this. I think I’m going with “C” parts now.

I took my starter locs down due to my parts being different sizes (some big, some small with different shapes). I asked the stylist for diamond parts and while she did do that for the back of my head, the front didn’t even come close to looking the same as the back. Thankfully I am getting them redone because going on this loc Journey is so important to me.

i should change my name to "Multiple Journeys" based on issues with parting. My favorite sets of locs are with the C/Fan shaped parting systems. Parting Systems Matter!

I have had multiple journeys but my current journey I have the c/fan parting system. My last journey I had the brick lay pattern and I didn't enjoy my dreads at all and I ended up cutting them around the three year mark.

I am going to start my second Loc Journey in October. Hopefully I will have diamond parts. Glamazini here on KZfaq has the diamond parting system for her locs.

I have diamond at the top an middle an square in the back

I’m starting my second set next month, I think my first set was random but also c shaped but also square, idk what that lady was doing lol I cut them a few months before I made it 4 years, I was considering brick layering but I really want my hair to look full lol idk what to do after this video lol

Starting my locs next week and I'm on team dimond!

very informative. i'm going to install loc extensions in september so i've been over dosing on your videos xx

Hi, i started mine with the diamond parting system. I really really like it. It shows less scalp and hair looks fuller. I have thick thin hair and felt that was the best system for me. Oh and i have loc extensions. 🙂😉

Thank you ! thank you! Thank you!!! Without your video I would have changed my mind again, even tho I want them badly!

Im almost at my two year mark and I basically have squares and I’m not sold on how my hair looks ..I did have an undercut that’s has about ten locks forming so I’m tryna wait til the grow out to see if that what I’m missing!! I’m leaning towards fan shape or diamond next time around

My location didn't ask me about parts she just asked me how big I wanted them. I told her medium but I'm not sure if they are, some seems pretty small to me. Pretty sure my hair just isn't long enough yet, hopefully they will thicken up.

I have brick b I love how mines fall. Especially when I take down my ropes .. 💕

I think I want the circular parts

Starting mine tommorow❤️

I Have Decided I Want Dreads Which Method Should I Use If I Want A Really Full Look Like I Have Lots Of Them But I Don’t Want Them To Be Skinny But Kinda Thick

I started my locs in 2012 and cut them. I wasnt a fan of the parting system and I could never do anything with them. Getting them done again soon. Hopefully the fan style works better and looks more filling. I dont want to cut them again.

Starting my journey tomorrow. I've been growing my hair for two years with cornrows.

Thank you, this was helpful. Hopefully I can get a successful diy with this attempt this time lol

I’ve locked and twisted my boyfriends hair so many damn times ! Hopefully this is the last time 🤣🤣 I want to do the triangle parts this time Hopefully it looks great

I started my husband & mines with the C parting system & love it!! Also check out Mrsbreauxbody here on YT she has diamond parts & her locs are beautiful!!

I started with the bricklayer system for both of my journeys. My locs were started with comb coils.

I wish I had seen this before. That was not asked when I got mines. I’m 4 weeks, still waiting on my hair to lock. I have the box. Would have wanted the C/Fan. Maybe I should just take the down before it’s too late. Also I’m looking into getting box braids for a while till my twist/loc hair grow a little longer

Def diamond.

Sooooo informative

I needed this, great video!

The Triangle Parting System

I had the Diamond parting. I didn’t like it at all. That’s why I’m starting my locs over 7 years later 🙈.

I'm getting dreads Tuesday so I'm trying to decide on what type of parting I should get

What type of parting did you start with?

Thank you for this information!!

Started with square faux locs. Too much scalp showing. Will it fill in in time. I like the full look better.

Advice please! I want to start my locs real soon. I have super thick kinky hair. I want medium size locs. I dont want super thick locs. What's the best loc to part ratio to start with?!?!?!

Hello. I watch ur video. Which one would u recommend for fine hair with low density please ?

Thanks for sharing that information 🤍🌹

how did you change the parting system

Fan parting and 2 strand twist. I meant two strand twist..

Can you tell what parting system Sanneta Myrie has?

i need help i for my 1st time dreads i want some in the front and don't know what to get

what parting system do you have?

I’m probably gonna get the diamond like lil durk dreads

Do you know what parting system Dutchess from Black Ink Uses?

what’s your pattern? I must’ve missed when you said it..

My parting system is fucked up💀 but I won't re-start my loc journey, fuck it.

Bricklayers

Diamond parts are not so great for thick locs. Only medium or small unless you want to look very organic. Also it’s good for people with thicker and stronger hair. Not so much for thin hair.

Lol why Bruh so serious 😂

I have no parting system.

Your intro music is a tad bit scary lol

If you would've posted pictures pertaining to each system you spoke about , it would've been a way better video! For future reference

I plan on getting a consult this month!!#Nervous 🫣🤞🏾🤞🏾
