This was EXACTLY what I was trying to find. I envisioned a way to add in lightweight human hair to 2 strand starter locs. Thank you sooooo much!!!❤️❤️❤️
Coupon worked! Method worked thank you so much ! Only had two inches of hair left after being abused by these hair stylist and now I have micro twists and don’t have to worry!
Hey guys I purchased this hair and it's great! I will be doing micro locs with this hair. I got 5 bundles. It didn't smell, it was very soft. I am a happy customer. Tfs. Great video!
@@kerri-annroomes3682 hello, I didn't make them, I tried to do the braid in method to create micro locs but unfortunately the afro hair kept slipping because my hair is so soft.
Literally the ONLY video of this on RUclips! Thank you soooo much! My ONLY feedback is that I wish the picture was a bit for clear so that I can see which method looks better, as it’s hard to tell in your video!! Thanks so much for this!!
Funny, I was did this very method on my slippery, baby fine, baby soft salt and pepper hair. Today is the first time I watch your video on this method. I wanr to thank you! You are the only one that has a tutorial that is so easy to follow. Thank you are a "God" send!
Omg this is the video I've been searching for. I've wanted to start my locs for a while now but wasn't sure on how to do just this specific method. I ordered my hair and can't wait to start! Thank you sooo much for this video🧡
This is PERFECT!!!! I want to start my locs but I have very fine hair. I have always braided my own hair, Im about to be50 and I want a change! Thanks for this
Today April 10th, 2022 is the beginning of my loc extensions journey. My hair is grey but the pattern and method is almost exactly like your client's. Super excited to be loc'd up!
Girl, thank you! I have watched so many videos and this is the only one that made sense to me. You just saved me some coins! Going to order the hair and do it myself.
HALLELUJAH 🙏🙏🙏 BLESSINGS TO YOU MY SISTAH... THIS IS EXCELLENT.... THE VERY BEST INSTRUCTIONS I'VE SEEN ON RUclips....🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I AM SO EXCITED & CANNOT WAIT TO DO MY LOCS THIS WAY... I'VE HAVE LOCS FOR OVER 30YEARS AND I AM GOING TO ADD TO MY NEW GROWTH ..... I AM GREATFUL❤❤❤❤❤ PEACE
Very happy to come across this video! I've been looking for answers almost 2 year now. You have no idea what sharing this video is doing for folk with thinning hair. Thank you much. Please share video on how to wash, dry and moisturize
@@LeyLocssometimes the first install may slip but once you get your retie that’s when I didn’t have no more slipping I noticed on my edge lol we had to add more hair because it was to to thin
This is exactly what I needed , you are a blessing , I am starting my journey and I have a section that has heat damaged and I want to cut the damaged hair off but don’t want that section of my hair to be so shorter than the rest and this will fix that ! Thank you for the video and the hair link. 💕
Thank you so much for this video I have had sister locks twice one for 7 years and took them out had them installed again for three years due to Alopecia. I’m going to use this method because I really love the way it looks. Thank you so much!
I was wondering why not braid with the hair from the start as I have bought this hair and the hair dresser braided in the hair then twisted, can you tell me why you don't use this method, i know this is an obvious method but i was just wondering what the problems i may encounter with growth and re tighting. Thank you. 😊
I actually did this method on myself about 5 years ago but ended up taking them out because I used too much hair in some of the twists. About to reinstall now while on break from work. Thank you so much for all of the knowledge you generously share.
Thanks for making this! I want to start my second set of locs and make them micro! I had some serious postpartum shedding, so I need to use extensions along my hair line to make it longer to match the length of my hair better!
I am on the exact same situation, i started my microlocs journey 3 weeks ago, and my hairline is very short due to post partum shedding, how is your journey going so far, did you get those extensions?
Thank you for always being a blessing to the community! Your transparency is unmatched! Question: Can you speak to what the extensions will look like in 3+ years? I ask because,l I have heard that the extensions will become noticable as the locs mature and your natural hair continues to establish the loc. Thank you again for your wisdom!
Love the braiding option Can you make another video with longer length extention(braiding option) To cover side n front bald spots.. how would you do it,? And how can you add colors? Thank you very much Your video gives hope I'll stop there..thank you
What’s the difference between this and box braiding the extension into it at the root and then doing a couple interlock passes? I already did all my braids with my natural hair but now as I work through crocheting at the root it’s feeling like I’m doing double work.
Do you have any photos or a follow up in this technique and what it looks like in day three retightening? i ordered me four bundles and think i wanna do this method on my short hair… but wondering how it will look 👀 later in the journey. ❤
OMG! I have been looking and looking forna video to show this easier way. I have shaved sides and undecut. But the rest hair is to my collar bone! I want locs now, refuse to cut my hair. This just saved me. Geowing out my undercut enough to braid alittle and this will be the way. Love ❤️ Love it 😀
Is it ok to add the hair by feeding it into your hair by just braiding it in like a knotless braid or will that create to much tension when it’s time to interlock ?
Thank you for sharing! I want to order textured locs from them so I just sent an inquiry trying to purchase a few same locs to determine the thickness I want.
Hi! have shoulder length hair and my ends are straight, I installed tester micro twists. My hair is low density with Normal sized strands. I just want more texture at the bottom to my ends will curl and stay together and a little more volume. will 2 packs of 12 inch still be ok?
Greetings! If I am adding length to existing starter locs started with 2 strand twists (3 months old) should I start at the root or pull the latch hook through a lower part of the loc?
@@LeyLocs Thanks very much. You replies fast. I want the permanent look but don’t want to keep the extensions long term. So I was wondering if these méthods would fit. Do you have a video where you don’t add the extensions at thé roots but let’s say middle? Do you know if you can still get a Fuller look if you don’t add thé extensions at the roots but a little more further?
I do Henna and Indigo on my own hair! Do you know if the bulk hair can with stand this. But, I have recieved my hair on my next henna and indigo application I'll do a test!! The hair had not smell, soft, and came with bonus tools! ❤💯 free gifts.
Do u think this could be done with instant loc locs to add length.. my thumbs hirt so much from using the crochet hook and this seems so much easier if it can be done.. but i dont want to add too much bulk so i just want to add length mayb starting in the middle.. if it can b done can u show a video doing so .. so i wont waste my time or hair lol
On the #30 exyhair bulk kinky, can you get 30 and add dye like the adore ginger or red? Is the #30 unprocessed human hair? I like the #30 color but wasn't sure if the hair was 100%human like the natural black.
This is exactly what i was looking for. However do you think I can do two strand twists with this hair and it not turn into locs? I dont want to use synthetic hair but I also dont want the style to stick because im not going for starter locs. Thx!
I have a question, if my client wants to do microloc braid extensions but using the human hair cut from weft, how can I secure it towards the ends. Leaving it curly but ensuring they don’t unravel
This was EXACTLY what I was trying to find. I envisioned a way to add in lightweight human hair to 2 strand starter locs. Thank you sooooo much!!!❤️❤️❤️
me to it the only one of its kind out there this just saved
FACTS!! This is the one!😊
I'm curious, why not just add the hair to the root to braid then twist?
What kind of hair should I use
@@dawncardwell366 because that would make it have a knot which would harm the hair to retie
This video is a sign that God cares about my hair lol. I've been searching everywhere for help and here it is!! Getting locd today!
How it come out?

How was it when u took it down? Did it damage hair
You must’ve gotten a good batch because the hair stinks. It smells just like kanekalon synthetic braid hair from a beauty supply store.

Hmm! With these twists I know they’ll loc into their own loc which should mesh into your own hair but I can’t be 100% sure
That tends to happen with synthetic hair. As long as it is human hair, and your texture it will won't be noticable.
Nice Job!😍👏❤️❤️Thanks for sharing our afro hair bulk😍
Looking to restart over my lock journey but with time your locks and this is perfect for me but I'm using spring twist hair
Is it human?
Thank you so much for doing it step by step.... Im ready to try on myself
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGG Im gonna do that in my hair! Thank you so much 😍😍
So beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing!!! I needed this!!! Starting today 🤞🏾
Thank you.. I’m going to start my hair today, after I dye my hair!!!! Love this.. You have a new subscriber!!!
U r a God send I have been contemplating doing my locs but couldn’t find the hair type I was looking for or the technique thank u so much ☺️
Definitely like this one better. I been looking for this style FOREVER!!!, thank you 🙏🏾!!!,
What do recommend for women with thinning at the top as far as volume will this hair cover it?
It will help, but not completely hide thinning. You can rock different styles to help cover!
Thank you for sharing this, this was very helpful. I can’t wait to start servicing these.❤
I love it...but when you lock at the root...when one wants to undo them....would it be a problem?
It wouldn’t be but it’s intended to be a permanent style. But you can undo them like micro braids
Thank you so much. This is the video I’ve been searching for. I love all methods.❤
This how I have done my mine for a few years. I love the video
Do they stay curly on the ends? Did u have to replace them? As the hair got older?
Love the braiding option
Can you make another video with longer length extention(braiding option)
To cover side n front bald spots.. how would you do it,?
And how can you add colors?
Thank you very much
Your video gives hope I'll stop there..thank you
This was the video I was looking for. Thank you so much. I ordered mines today, will be using your video to do mines myself
hey arrived on time and look absolutely beautiful. No smell and I also love that they came with additional items.

Beautiful Video. This will help me do my own hair
this is a God send. especially because i cant afford to go get it done
Let us know how it comes out !
Hello can you do a video on how to clean afro kinky bulk hair prior to installation
Absolutely. Got that coming soon!
This video is everything! Thank you! How many packs of hair should I order? I have really thick hair course hair.
I would do about 6 packs of 12 or 14 inches
I used the same method on my hair to start my locs and they turned out beautifully. Do you dip the hair when you are done?
I spray it with water
I need that tool u used to interlock her hair teehee 😊please nd thx u. Where can I get it?
On Amazon it’s called an interlocking tool ☺️
What’s the difference between this and box braiding the extension into it at the root and then doing a couple interlock passes? I already did all my braids with my natural hair but now as I work through crocheting at the root it’s feeling like I’m doing double work.
This way secures it more but if you feel secure with braiding it in at the roots, it will work out fine
Do you have any photos or a follow up in this technique and what it looks like in day three retightening? i ordered me four bundles and think i wanna do this method on my short hair… but wondering how it will look 👀 later in the journey. ❤

Hey love. Thank you for this video, I finally have the courage to start my locs. How does the hair loc with the added hair one they start maturing?
With human hair the extensions Locs up and your human hair Locs with it
Can you palm twist the root with the way instead of interlocking
Yes!
Thank you so much for sharing these methods. How can I make appt?
😃 You can message me on Instagram @theleylocs or email me at hello@leylocs.com
Thanks so much for sharing. I’ve been looking for a method to add length to my 2 strand twists. Is this hair soft? Or rough like Marley hair?
It’s human hair so it’s soft 🙂
Greetings!
If I am adding length to existing starter locs started with 2 strand twists (3 months old) should I start at the root or pull the latch hook through a lower part of the loc?
The lower part of the twists are no longer unraveling.
Hello! Great video. With these methods, As the hair grows with time, Is it possible to easily take off thé extensions and only keep the natural hair?
It wouldn’t be easy to remove because the hair will be locked. You would have to cut the extensions then comb out where your hair is

Aww I’m currently not doing hair but my loctician Kahyah is amazing. Here’s her website app.squarespacescheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=23742754
On the #30 exyhair bulk kinky, can you get 30 and add dye like the adore ginger or red? Is the #30 unprocessed human hair? I like the #30 color but wasn't sure if the hair was 100%human like the natural black.
You can but I suggest getting the color from the site so you don’t have to worry about fading
Thx you so much for this video ❤ i really appreciate you for it
You don't use a twist gel?
How long did this take
hello, thanks I have a question. DO you wash the hair before u do the extensions?
Yes I do
Yesss 🙌🏾 Love THIS!! Thank you for sharing 🥳
Excellent vid...can you use synthetic hair instead of human hair?
You can but synthetic hair don’t loc
could i do this if i wanted to add thickness not length?
You can but you don’t want to put too much weight on you hair. But to do it you grab a little more hair before twisting
I love the look but I want it just a little bigger...would you recommend the same method?
I might need to catch a flight....
Yes with bigger parts. I’m currently not doing hair 🥺
Watch your video and love, the way you do , I'm going to try it on my hair too thanks

I have a question, if my client wants to do microloc braid extensions but using the human hair cut from weft, how can I secure it towards the ends. Leaving it curly but ensuring they don’t unravel
That’s the tricky part. I haven’t worked with looser textured hair. All I can think of is securing with knots
