Oh and a video idea I think you should do is a week of alkaline vegan food including breakfast lunch and dinner everyday for a week or alkaline snack/smoothies, but congrats again on the 100k can't wait to see more of you and others to see more of you cause the energy is beautiful.

    idk how/why your channel came up on my RUclips...I guess the Algo's. Anyway i have watched some of your vids just to see you (no creep). Your BF is a very lucky guy. BIG UPS on the 100k you deserve it. I don't know much about locs, makeup, spiritual healing and all that but if you ever need any tips on the finance thing hmu..I'd say I'm aaight in that category. good luck on your journey and keep up the good work

    Aw.. Maybe cutting relaxed isn't totally necessary.. I did my braidlocs on relaxed hair (documenting on my channel) with interlocking (despite really loving twists, they wouldn't fit my lifestyle!).. The goal is to not have to cut off my relaxed.. So far so good.. If I do end up cutting the relaxed parts later once i grow out my natural, I will be okay with it.. But for now they look good and are doing great, and I kept my length on my hair. I already see that my new growth locks far faster lol.. But still grateful I can still wear ponytail for now😸 greats 100k! You always are beautiful

    I’m 11 months mine are still curly at the end. I started off on longer hair like shoulder length. Also my hair is 4a so it’s locking slowly but it’s finally coming together!

      @zafrikelip.1935 4 года назад +1

      I have 3b-ish hair and I’m 5 months in and my ends are so curly that ppl don’t even believe their locked or twisted...it just looks like a twist out at the ends...I hope they stay this way🤷🏾‍♀️

  • @GoldenHunni
    @GoldenHunni 4 года назад +4

    So you didn't part your hair when you started them? I'm wondering if that's what I should do because I have fine hair and I cut mine last time because it looked too "scalpy."

    I am in love with your color and in love with your locs! I can not wait to mimic this color on myself. I am not 8 1/2 months locked and my edges are not locked at all :( But once I make it to a year I am def. coloring my hair this color. Any advice on where to order the hair color from?

    Hi. I love your channel and you are so beautiful. I noticed you have flawless healthy skin. Could you do a video on your eating habits and health regimen. I started a plant based diet very recently and will take on that topic on my own channel. I just wanted to hear your perspective on diet and well being. Thanks.

    Your locs look AMAZING! Maybe a silly question but I'm asking- when you say you bleach your hair are you using hair color or using actual bleach solution to get that color? I had locs a long time ago but thinking about growing them again. Thanks for sharing your loc journey!👑

    • @vnessaw
      @vnessaw 4 года назад

      T McDougal she means hair bleach. Definitely not cleaning bleach if that’s what you’re asking. Hair bleach is a similar concept of lifting color but it’s for hair

  • @autumnleavesart
    @autumnleavesart 3 года назад

    Hi Ray! Hope you're doing well! I was wondering can I use purified spring water instead of the distilled water to make the loc tonic? I know there's a difference but will the difference matter to the hair if all the other ingredients are accurate? Please advise
    Love you hair, your posts and your videos by the way! I just restarted my starter locs YESTERDAY & I'm excited about this new journey!
