How To Blunt End of Locs Using a Crochet Needle
Stupendous and gloriously gorgeous ❤ 🤎🙏🏼🤲🏼💪🏼👑☀️💫
I love it!! So pretty every look & attire 😎🤎🙏🏼🤲🏼💪🏼
Naturally pretty
AND some woman are a slave to their wigs and weaves because they do not have heathy hair or edges and I’m not talking about people with medical conditions I’m talking about bad hair practices I told my sister for YEARS stop braiding your hair so tight it’s causing thinning SO She stopped and went to a full tight weave they used to see it so tight she has no hair now she feel like she has no choice IF my God give. Hair is not Classy Enough I do NOT want him
LMAO YT Men flock when I wear my natural hair the brothers who like “REAL” never approach I’m always dressed to the nines and my face is a natural Beat So it’s date YT or single
If you’re a woman changing yourself to attract and get attention from men you’re already losing.
You were speaking nothing but the truth 💪🏿
Wow your gorgeous
Don’t be interested in someone that you have to adjust yourself to attract.
I’m just here to say : NO.
Just washed my starter locs after 1 week. Have 3c hair. My two strand twists were unraveling anywaysssss might as well wash
my locs and its journey is part of what made my bf fall in love with me. he grew out his hair and sports an afro now too. he does anything for me. as for attracting guys, with locs i feel like i attract guys left snd right. i can’t get a break sometimes lol. for the topic on attracting rich men, i think it’s bs. there’s all different types of rich men and there’s definitely one out there who would appreciate you for who you are. “just shy of bleaching your skin” is tea asf lol
Women with locs, please reach out to me directly. As long as I have a face, you'll always have..................
Im not listening to someone who wrestles with breathing when they sit up tell me locs are ghetto.
🗣WHO LIVES IN A PINEAPPLE UNDER DA SEA🎶🎵🎶
12:17 I'm honestly surprised it's not more😲
That's why im waiting till I'm older, before greying or balding but after I've done everything with my loose hair so i can commit
If my mans dont like locs thats not my man
I feel I’m hyper-sexualized with wigs, where as with my locs I am more outwardly & openly respected. Men literally run to hold doors open for me and give praise. It really needs to be studied lol
You fine asffffff
With the AoT shirt no less
Could I use grapeseed oil instead of coconut oil?
Question, as for "watering" your locs everyday...what are your tips for those who live in areas where we get snow? Having a wet scalp/hair in the winter isn't exactly ideal. Lol, not trying to be sick all the time.
The human race is cooked
I started two strands because my hair is thin and curly I want thick locs I always hated my naturally thin hair
A man that was interested in me told me he actually prefers women with wigs and he actually likes it deep down, but would still accept me. I told him to go find someone else. Not interested. I don't want to be managed...It's best he goes for what he really likes. Not to talk about me then trying to be someone else to keep a certain type of man. Like honey, men that have a problem with the natural are not the type I'm looking for in the first place. I'm actually trying to avoid them, lol. Not that they are bad people, but they're just not for me.
Wait till you find out that people are putting relaxers on their locs.
Wait what??
@khihanajohn294 yes, unfortunately.
Women are delusional not every women is going to marry wealthy. So who cares?
Hood booger been a term. Mostly from gen x and millennials.
I got the MOST attention when i had locs. One man actually stalked me
I mean no offense. But im not taking what is acceptable advice from a woman in a burgandy red wig. Forgetting what men like, everybody likes confident people comfortable in themselves. Love your locs yourself and no one will take issue with it. And for the rare folks who do you're either gonna not notice or it will slide right off you. A cheerful open countenance takes your farther with folks than any hairstyle.
As a 30 something woman who lives in what I call the land of rich white men, FL (it’s a beach city not Miami), I’ve been approached by more white men than black men. I was born here and with weave I attracted more black men after I went natural that changed, they (black men) look at me but rarely approach me. I will acknowledge the fact that I have waist length sisterlocks and most times they (white men) assume they’re braids even after I tell them they’re locs, they are not deterred. I have to wonder how much of this conversation is about the covert fetishization of black women especially when we attempt to assimilate whiteness. I’ve never dated any of the men who have approached me because I always have that in mind. How much of their attraction is rooted in our appearance vs genuine interest? I have pretty large tattoos as well, both hair and tattoos seem to draw them and become conversation starters.
I agree locs are the final boss & the promise land of natural hair. Well said 👏🏽👏🏽❤
This is my favorite comment
I’ve always wondered why locs are the most hated style in this society. I love my locs it showcases who I am within. Mirrors my blackness & my strength. Plus My hair is the longest & healthiest its ever been. Almost to my butt actually. They may see them as ghetto but holy spirit says its a righteous 👑😎 The longer they get the sharper my senses & intuition get the stronger my relationship to The Most High gets etc ❤
Locs are fucking beautiful!
I would love to hear you talk about cultural appropriation and your views on this as well. I am seeing a loctition soon myself, but I am getting a little bit of pushback from some of my friends in regards to this. What are your feelings? Thank you so much!
Jay-z has Locs…there you go some one wealthy
this is talking about the women...Jay has them but Bey does not
I live in the uk and have semi Freeform locs. As an educated professional, I definitely see that it’s been a hindrance in my progression. The unconscious bias has been really strong, particularly in my present job. I’ve had a conversation with my boyfriend about how he’d feel about me cutting them and though he’s supportive of me, he said he absolutely loves my hair as it is. Side note, I have a lot of tattoos, though in places where they are not visible in my uniform.
Who is for is for you. Be you! If you can’t love yourself with your hair at any level, then there’s no space for anyone else to. Locs are not ghetto. One could say fire engine red weave is, however it’s all apart of our culture. It’s unfortunate that this conversation takes up so much mental space for women.
All I have to say is, praise Yah.
If we constantly mold ourselves just to have weathly man , you will lose yourself. I love my locs and I love having tattoos and I want more. Idgaf if the society doesn’t like it, babe I’m BLACK I’m already supposedly at the bottom but I don’t see myself like that. I can’t. The right man and the right people will rock with me regardless and do already.
Men LOVE my locs 😍 theres nothing wrong with weave but alot of men find natural hair to be a refreshing change of pace from weaves and relaxers. But ultimately i think most men simply dont care either way. But i love my locs and im never going back lol 😂
I agree…it actually keeps the hoodbuggers away quite honestly! I gain more respect with my locs versus when I had my natural curly hair ❤
Black women are better off putting their energy towards being their own wealthy man! Promoting assimilation sickens me, especially when it’s to find something as fickle as a relationship.
I mean locs are not good looking to me.A lot of people don’t like them. Some do. Do what you want at the end of the day.
Straight hair on bw is ridiculous. You’re taking the ether out of your hair & it also means you hate yourself. All judgement over here especially from your ancestors
Think about what you say before you say it, I know for a fact under your scalp is green sludge
Thank you for this! I’m only 2 weeks in with my starter locs & I was worried about how it would affect dating & my career. However at some point we need to stop caring about societies standards
Sometimes I feel like my loc are hindering me from getting another corporate job. I started pulling my hair back through virtual interviews so it’s makes it difficult for the interviewer to see my locs. But as soon as I do the in person nope we don’t want you and I have all the skills
I’m a guy
@@ScorpioKLR it’s a lot harder in corporate America for sure. They want you to assimilate to the corporate culture.
@ScorpioKLR, I’m a guy as well and my locs are down to the middle of my back. I’ve never had any issues with my hair in Corporate America (I’m an Accountant with an MBA) and my locs have an ombre dye effect (black to dark brown to honey blonde). To be fair, I do get a retwist every 3-4 months, wash my hair regularly (every few weeks), keep it smelling fresh and moisturized and I make sure that the frizz is kept to a minimum. I’m also well spoken and I dress neatly. I’m sure that all of those factors play a part in how I’m perceived and the people at work do give me positive feedback regarding my presentation. May I ask, how do you maintain your locs ?
I don't want anyone near me who expects me to lean into eurocentric beauty standards in order to consider me as a "catch". I purposely use my locs as an armor to shield myself against anti-black people.
I had to smash that like button cause you be acting like me watching loc videos 🤣 I be like girl! You could’ve kept that! And you know we wanted to see the back😒
Lol this is nonsensical because crazy idea: you can also not want any man, rich or poor, who hates your natural hair.
As a girlie with semi Freeform hair, I had to explain to my mom that my hair doesn’t shine like other girlies. Locs don’t shine. . My hair is healthy , and clean. People don’t like the matting. They say it looks dirty. They don’t get it.
same, my mom is always like “it looks dry” when if u literally feel it, its so soft. like this is my texture, lol. some people never get used to that.
I am the loc Lady that had to comb out my locs after 2 years and a scalp issue, BUT I missed the locs so much that I placed them back in after six months. I am now a year in with this second set on 12/23/24. I see I am not alone and rock on!❤
