    Hhheeyyyy...I love your loc updates....I have sister locs and suffer from lint as well. I am almost 5yrs in and I will NEVER brush my locs! Honestly coloring your hair is not going to take the lint away because I’ve tried 😏 I do/did hear that the ACV rinse helps with getting lint/buildup/and cleanses your locs. Also far as in frizz how I tame is doing braid outs! Keep the videos coming girl lol

    • @NapsAreTheNewBlack
      @NapsAreTheNewBlack  4 года назад +1

  • @myfavealien7767
    @myfavealien7767 4 года назад +1

    So I've got a few tips... Because I've had locs for 10 years- 14 in total on & off... Acv is ok but if you make a conditioner out of it with baking soda it bubbles up and loosens out some... This is where your bf comes in at. If he takes the crochet needle or his finger nail tips he can slightly dislodge it before or after your acv & bs cleanse. It's also great for clearing the scalp from build-up. So far you're doing 👍 great! I watched your vid because my 11 yod is about to get her hair locked for the 4th time in her life. The 1st 2 times were combed out because her paternal grandmother couldn't take the "black" look... The last time I underestimated her hair's yearn for complete immediate entanglement at the roots. Smhmh. Stay safe, stay blessed and nappily natural. It suits you beautiful Queen! 😉

    OMGG im the person who asked about the twists/coils, aha I just finished installing coils on my own hair, im full 4c and girl, it took FOREVER and i did them small because again any coils my hair would make are also super small like your hair.
    it as my first time doing coils and yes the 5000 years, that was about how long it took lol, from being a loose natural, my hair seems to tangle/matte pretty easily but i'll see how they hold up

    It could be some products that you use, try to do a test and try to minimize on it to see if that might be the culprit for the lint.

    I really like the size of your locs. I just completed braidlocs and I have some that I feel would need to be combined in the future (too small). I have 349 locs.... Debating on a reinstall....

    • @NapsAreTheNewBlack
      @NapsAreTheNewBlack  4 года назад

      thanks! and I originally didn't like my size either. they may grown on you, but if they feel too fragile, then i understand wanting to combine some

    Love your locs you inspired me to start locs too, I started with rope twist after a month I had so many unraveling but I don't have any freezing,I combed my hair and did two strand it's almost a month now no unraveling but lots of freezing in just three weeks! but I love it anyways,

    • @NapsAreTheNewBlack
