    You are so lucky you never had to go through the "ugly" phase with your locs. They were 🔥 from the jump❤

      @starberrysweetee1495 3 года назад +17

      They're still pretty young, the changing phase of locs usually starts a few months in and lasts for a few more months.

      That’s right the journey to get to fully mature locs can take between 1-2 years depending on hair texture. The pretty curly coily bouncy starter locs are not even close to being locs yet, they still have to bud & frizz. Some people SO caught up in the “ugly” stage & it’s not that at all, it’s just a stage our hair goes through to get to the end goal of healthy locs you can’t reach that without the frizzing & budding. I learned to trust & embrace the process & 14months in my hair is pretty healthy I had to stop myself from being too finicky as locs aren’t meant to be “perfect” 😊🇬🇧

      @@caribbeanqueen9894 well to you good luck on the rest of your journey however long it may be. The satisfaction, hair freedom & diversity you get in return makes it worth it for me & as I’m a diyer I’ve learned so much about maintaining my own hair that I can passion to my family weather they want locs or loose natural hair. 😊🇬🇧

      I know what you meant by her hair not going through the ugly phase. She has a super thick density and perfect length so her hair will look amazing throughout her entire journey. Whereas some of us have to wait for the budding stage to pass to get the thickness we want. I wish my locs looked like this. I wouldn't wear a wig everyday lol. Patiently waiting though.

  • @ctown088
    @ctown088 3 года назад +19

    I think twisting them this way will keep your locs from thinning eventually. Don't go back to interlocking. Just do a style to preserve the retwist longer. Your locs are gorgeous and so voluminous. 😍

      @hambo9215 2 года назад +8

      Retwists doesn’t last as long as interlock. The con w/interlocking is having the loc separating at the root but I think with microlocs it won’t be that way. I started my locs comb twists and ended up having em interlocked

    @kimmigerrow7834 3 года назад +4

    So love you videos and your hair ❤️ ..I also have locs this is my 3rd set of locs and it was mostly because of my partings. I strongly recommend that you do interlocking on your micro locs and no gel because over time that’s going to cause some crazy built up, no conditioners also that too can cause built up and unraveling. But if you do use gels you can use flaxseed (boil it, let it cool) and there you have gel and it’s not going to leave your hair feel dry or crispy 🤗✌️🇯🇲

    Can I give you a quick suggestion. Using products and gels on your hair will hurt you in the long run. They get trapped in your hair and weigh down your dreads and they make your dreads look dirty over time. Its best to use natural oils and product.
