    Hey guys! I have made a part 1 and part 2 series on the pros and cons of micro locs (microlocs)! This video is part 2 where I list some of the cons or phases you might go through that you may not enjoy in your microloc journey. I include pics and some suggestions on dealing with the cons. When you are done watching the cons go back and watch the pros video. If you have any questions leave them in the comment section and I'll answer to the best of my ability!!

    I’m 6 months into my microlocs journey. I have soooo much shrinkage which irks my spirit. I didn’t know that my hair was as fine as it was when I was a loose natural. I have mixed feelings about my locs but am trying to trust the process.

    • @microlocsandmore
      @microlocsandmore  2 года назад +3

      Trust the process. There was a period where I saw no growth (it was but it was shrinking as it compacted). Now my locs are starting to head down the beginning of my back! Locs evolve so if you hang in there you will get your results. Check out my 3 year anniversary video and you will see different stages and the progress.
      Keep me posted on your journey!

    For how long do I have to continue banding and braiding? I have fine hair and I started my locs with twists 3 months ago. I am noticing that when I undo the braiding , the hair matts together and it's difficult to undo and I end up with a lot of unraveling. Please help

    • @microlocsandmore
      @microlocsandmore  3 года назад +1

      I had the go ahead to stop from my loctician. It was around the year mark. Maybe you could make an appointment with a loctician for a consultation.

    • @night3angel
      @night3angel 3 года назад +3

      Similar thing happened with my hair also. Whenever I braided it, it matted together, especially the ends. I stopped braiding and started twisting them for washing etc and at night (the locks still young). When I switched to the twists instead of braids, the matting significantly reduced. I also don't twist all the way to the tip.

    • @microlocsandmore
      @microlocsandmore  3 года назад +1

      @@night3angel One thing is for sure. We all have different journeys and sometimes we have to improvise based upon our individual needs. So glad you figured out how to stop the matting. Great tip!❤️

    What did you do with the loose hair until you got to your loctician?

    • @microlocsandmore
      @microlocsandmore  2 года назад +1

      I would hide them with a bobby pin. The other locs did a good job camouflaging the loose ones. Sometimes I would wrap the loose hair around another loc (if it was a short loc).
