Linda's hair journey - Appointment 1 - Starter locs using Comb twist method.

The locking process has been obfuscated in Nigeria for a long time. My locs were started using the most ridiculous method about 7 years ago.A coffee and toothpaste mix which I was unaware of was put in my hair and a block of form was rubbed aggressively on my head for about 30mins. My pillows cases stained, my hair will take forever to dry, my hair was sticky. It was awkward and painful. I guess I really wanted locs to have stayed with that process.
Now 7 years later, I have run a loc studio for about two years and helped over a hundred people start their journey on a much clearer part.
Linda is one of them and she has graciously agreed to let me document her journey for a year. Her Journey started on the 26th of July, 2017 and that is when I made this video.
I hope you stay tuned and see Linda's hair become mama locs from starter locs.

[@glammedbyranda715]

Are you using just water can you use loc gel

[@locitude7074]

Hi, I used water and oils, you can use a loc gel if you want; but make sure it's not too thick, else it might leave build up in your locs.

[@peachesjones9613]

What kind of comb is that ?

[@RealEyes.Realize.RealLies]

My hair is the same length and texture due to taking migraine medication. I'm thinking about getting locs because I can't do anything else with it.

I wanna loc my hair, should I cut it or can I do it like that

[@shavorisveal3791]

Where are you located so you can do my hair like that??

[@ygm2667]

is it possible to use the comb with dry hair

[@locitude7074]

It's not advisable. Water makes the hair easy to comb through and helps the twist stay in as they dry.

[@bellezabaggnails2957]

What are you using ?

[@locitude7074]

Just a mix of water and oils.

[@1ocasey]

How long does it takes for the gel starts to come out from starter locs

[@locitude7074]

We don't use gel at all. Just oils.

[@theskinnystallion6310]

Did her edges fill in? No disrespect, I want to get locs but idk if I should wait until my edges grow back or if I should just go ahead and get them and hope that they grow😭

[@baltimorejuan5878]

[@Ritahgdf]

Hey I really like your work which oil do you use

[@locitude7074]

Thank you. I use a mix of coconut, teatree, peppermint and rosemary oils. Any oils are fine really.

[@ayot6463]

Can u use a crochet hook on those twists?

[@ionasanaa3844]

How long will to be after installing she can wash her hair as i see no interlocking was used?

[@locitude7074]

We usually recommend 3 - 4 weeks at Locitude, but Linda washed hers about 3 times within the first 2 weeks because of her dandruff problem. check out appointment 2.
