Hey Guys, in this video, I wanted to give you guys a few helpful tips based on the questions I receive on a fairly consistent basic. These questions (from my experience) have been some of the most common causes of grief for our loc family. (New and Old) Hope you guys enjoy! If you have any additional questions please feel free to leave your questions in the comment section.

The thing I learned from a lot of other channels is that when washing your hair in the first 4 to 5 months. Just put a durag on and the shampoo will still get through and clean the hair.

In the very beginning of my loc journey, I interlocked my hair but quickly realized it isn't for me. I decided to retwist but I still have the tight "knots" of the interlocking. My fear is that I'll have to live with the fact that the interlocked parts won't swell like the rest of my starters and that they'll be visibly warped by interlocking
@mariecharles9758
@mariecharles9758 3 жыл бұрын
Omg, me too. I interlocked my hair a month ago after 1 month of starter locs. Worst decision ever. It makes me want to start over cuz i hate that interlock part. That knot is not budding. And idk if it ever will.
@chocobrigade
@chocobrigade 3 жыл бұрын
I made the decision last month to comb out my hair and restart but with instant locs! I don’t have the exact same emotional attachment to my locs like I did before, but I’m so much more relaxed when it comes to my hair! It’s freeing! I advise that if you aren’t happy now with you hair, do what make you happy! If restarting and fixing mistakes will make you happy, do it! So worth it! 😁

@aelikss
@aelikss 3 жыл бұрын
I wouldn’t say wearing a bonnet is bad but as long as it isn’t a really loose bonnet, because from experience I got my starter locs retwisted like a month in. And they went right back to looking like I didn’t get a retwist at all. So I would recommend wearing a bandanna or something that could firmly hold your dreads down so they don’t unravel and you could keep the neat look longer.

Nah. How the locs lay after you retwist is all dependent on how you get em started family! Nothing to worry about. At the end of the day as long as your hair is sectioned off how you want, and you maintain that every now and then you should be just fine!
