LISTEN SIS!!!! I need a ABs Journey Video lolol.... listen I saw that picture of you in that Bikini and I put the Ice Cream Sandwich down... We need a workout/food video lolol
I totally agree
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Okay! Give us the deets ❤
Opened my app and what do I see??? Sharida with her loc update and I screamed!!! Thank you!!
Me too!! I’ve been patiently waiting!! Thank you sooo much Sharida!!!!!
You are one of 2 ladies on RUclips that sold me on sisterlocks! I am now 2 1/2 years in my journey and I LOVE THEM!
Your locs are gorgeous and I thank you sharing your journey us!
OMG Yaaasssss! I am so happy they are working out for you. I am loving everything about my journey for sure. Zero regrets! Thank you Sis.
Bleaching my locs was the worst mistake I made at the beginning of my loc journey. I have 4c hair and had major breakage especially in the back since it’s the most fragile. I had to do major CPR to my hair after that. Never again!! I started with 3 inches of hair almost 5 years ago, and the regret is still there because even though my hair is growing healthy now past my shoulders on my upper back, the back of my hair would’ve been longer if I hadn’t bleached!! I don’t ever see myself cutting my locs. I’ve tried everything from braids, weaves, lacefronts, short cuts, etc to get it out my system before I committed. Nothing satisfies me the way locs do!! I’m in it for life!!
I hate you had to go through the huge set back with the bleaching 😕 But I totally agree I want these forever if I can help it lol!
Genetics I will say is the number one precursor to how fast your hair grows, the thickness, grade and curliness. Love your hair and think it’s gorgeous on you! I will say, you looked amazing with your natural straight hair too.
Thank you 🙏🏾 😊
I totally agree! I’m only 10 months into my loc journey and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. My hair is growing like crazy and it’s so easy to maintain. I LOVE THEM! 😍
Your hair is BEAUTIFUL! I contacted Ifraj and she did a phone consultation!! I’m in Florida and I told her based on your hair I only want HER to do my hair and I will travel out of state. Thank you for sharing your journey I look forward to mine! ❤
Awww!! Trust you are in great hands! Finding someone local for reties is the easy part lol. The install is critical! I am so excited for you!! 🤗
You have the most gorgeous sister locs that I’ve ever seen. I’ve been watching you since 2021 and to date I haven’t seen prettier sister locs on the internet nor in person. You take excellent care of them and shout out to your loctician.
Thank you so much!! ☺️ 💞🙏🏾 What an amazing compliment. You are so sweet 🥹
Your hair is absolutely gorgeous!! As someone with coily/curly hair, I totally understand how much time has to go into hair maintenance so I love to hear that your locs have given you so much freedom 🙂✨💕
Truly the best thing I could have done for my hair and the freedom really is amazing!
Your locs are beautiful! I’m almost at year 1 with my microlocs. I love them! So much time saved. So much freedom.
Thank you! ☺️💞 Yes, the best thing about the is the time saved and freedom. So glad you are enjoying your journey girl! 🫶🏾
I love you hair sis, I also started with long hair and those ends are still the same just swirly curls. My hair is also fragile which is why I had to start retightening my own locs 5 years ago, two loctitians were over tightening to where it was causing traction alopecia. I’m 8 years in now and waist length and it’s healthy since I’m maintaining myself. So happy more woman are locing, 8 years ago it was rough not as accepting and awful comments from our own people. Smh but it’s better now they can’t believe how beautiful we look 🤣
I always admire your hair in every video. It’s so beautiful
Oh thank you! ☺️ 💞
Clicked so fast! Absolutely love your Sister Locs💜
Thank you 🙏🏾 😁
Hey Sharida! You and your locks inspired me to get mine 15 months ago and I’ve loved them from day one. My loctitions were retying my fine, fragile hair too tight. So I did my first self retie last week and I survived, it was rough😂. But I definitely learned a lot! With the help of my daughter I think I got this💪🏾😁.
So glad you embarked on this amazing journey Tiff!
@tiffnicole5140 great job, you did it and got through it you’ll get better and faster with time. I’ve been doing my own 5 years now for the same reason my loctitian was causing me traction alopecia so I learned from RUclips and that was all she wrote. I’ve even started a few people’s locs and retightened. So you got this sis🎉
@@NaiaBlu1 Thank you Naia🙏🏾. Thats awesome! I found it very rewarding and empowering to retie my own hair. But I know it’s going to take time and patience. Be well sister🥰.
@@tiffnicole5140yes sis it is so rewarding and feels so good when your done knowing you are your own stylist on your own time. That’s what I call freedom you know. Stay blessed beautiful
@@NaiaBlu1 Exactly! Its even more freedom now😁. Thank you!
Girl I think I manifested this!! I’m here doing my hair listening to YT videos in the background and ur locs definitely crossed my mind. I just looked over after a video ended and this was the next suggested video! 😅🙌🏾❤️
Watching now… super excited!
You look so beautiful. Your elegance is on another level.
Thank you!! ☺️
I love your locs!!! I’m a year and a couple months into my micro locs. Everything you said is true about taking care of your locs. I don’t do anything to mine. My loctition just started me coming every six weeks because of my new growth. She washes my hair and everything. My hair is also curly on the ends which is strange to me. I went through breast cancer a year before locing my hair, and the texture came back different. Very curly. I got locs because I no longer knew how to take care of that texture of hair. I have people ask me why my hair is curly on the ends, and I tell them it’s just how my hair is now.
I can’t wait to see how long my hair will grow. It’s currently on my shoulders. It has never been this long in my life. It is definitely a journey, but if you can fight through the ugly stage it’s so worth it.
The growth seemed soooo slow motion first couple years for me. Now they are just growing length like wild fire 🔥!
Your hair is so beautiful. I'm watching even though I don't have locks or trying to get it
Awww 🥰 thank you so much for watching just to support Golden Betty 😘🫶🏾
The 1st time you showed up on my timeline I immediately subscribed because of your hair 😍. I even showed one of my homeboys how beautiful your hair is & told him it’s my hair goals. The only difference is I want small microlocs instead of sister locs.
Aww 🥰 thank you! You can definitely have locs just as beautiful with Microlocs 💯
Wit yo pretty self! When I saw the color in your locs, I wanted the same thing. No color as of yet after 3.5 yrs but a girl can dream...
🥰😘 Thank you Kim!
I've all natural for 12yrs and I'm happy with my hair never did the big chop but i do regular trims every 6 weeks. your locs are nice..
Your hair is flourishing! You are goals fr! 😍😍😍
Thank you so much girl!! 😀
Thank you for the generosity of the sister lock update. Your locks are truly thriving and you are beautiful. by the way, I love the perfume reviews and have developed a nice niche collection for myself from watching your channel. Keep thriving❤
Thank you for this beautiful message! I am so happy you are enjoying the perfume recommendations, but also finding value in the local content as well! 💞
Beautiful woman Beautiful Locs!! They have blossomed. Started following you for perfume around the time i was getting my locks two years ago.
I always enjoy your videos!
Thank you Porsche! 😊💞
Yes for money WELL spent!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Your hair is FUH-LOURISHING!😍
💞🫶🏾😁 Thank you sis!
Your locs are beautiful…thanks for sharing your update!
Thank you!! 😊
Wow, I was just wondering about an update on your journey. I guess a bunch of us were 😉🤭
Thanks for the video! Watching now!
You’re welcome 😊
Yesssss I be watching your locs sis and I love them
Thank you so much Chinitha! 🫶🏾
Your hair is gorgeous! Here to support you and your ever-growing channel. Cheers 💖
Thank you love ☺️!!
Hey Sharida! ❤❤Your hair is beautiful as always😊
Thanks for sharing your journey. I grew up with pressed hair. Have no idea.
I truly enjoyed this video. It was very informative. I am relaxed and I sometimes want to try something so different. Thank you for sharing this journey
You are so welcome! 🤗
I've been waiting for this video 🍿… 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I have been thinking about locking for years… Your hair is beautiful 😍
Thank you Pam! Girl with your bone structure any hair would be GORGEOUS on you 😍
A great update … your locs are beautiful… some great advice…
Your progress is absolutely beautiful. Congratulations.
I had to go binge your other loc videos!
☺️ Thank you!! 🙏🏾
Your locs are BEAUTIFUL !😊
Thank you so much ☺️!!
Love your locs, sharida
Yap! I have micro lucks for 15 months now and the shrinkage is real😂. But I the only problem I struggled with was unraveling due me washing my hair without the proper way pre-wash protection. But now I get the hang of it you said. But girl I don’t think those end will ever lock, though they are beautiful the way they look. ❤❤
Your sister locs are beautiful. I am also looking forward to the freedom that locs provide. And not having to worry about doing a protective style every time I go on vacation.
Your locs looks gorgeous
It really looks beautiful.
I’ll be 6 months in on 7/14!! I love my hair!! I’ve had one little mishap but hopefully it’ll be ok . Other than that- it’s been a beautiful easy breezy experience!!
Set backs may happen and thats okay. I am so glad you are enjoying your journey over all! 💞
Soo excited to see an update, your locs are beautiful and thriving!!! I just had my sisterlocks installed by Ifraj in June and I'm in love with my hair! And yes, I did travel out of state just so she could do the install lol.Thank YOU for promoting Ifraj, my install is flawless💕!!!
Omg Yaassss!!!! Where did you travel from? I am so glad you made the decision to loc AND you entrusted Ifraj 💞
@@SharidaM I'm so glad I trusted Ifraj as well!! She's very professional and honest, so it was easy! I travelled from Louisiana and stayed a week for a 4-day install (took about 42 hours in total). And I had a virtual initial consultation, so I only had to travel for the install😊💕
Hi. New subscriber here 🙋🏽♀️
I’ve been binge watching your videos but I have to stop to get ready for my day.
I plan on sister locing for my “double nickels” birthday in April 2025.
This gives me time to plan, save $ and find a reputable loctician.
You are beautiful. Thank you for sharing your journey with me 🫶🏽🙏🏽
This is wonderful news and I am so excited for you! Thank you for supporting my channel and I am so happy you are finding value in the content! 🫶🏾
Your hair is beautiful! I'm 1 year in and my hair was long and ends are also very curly. Your hair looks like how mine will look at that stage.
Your hair is wonderful 😍
Thank you!! ☺️
I’ve always loved your locs. I’m definitely thinking about getting locs myself. I even mentioned it to a coworker today. I’m not a fan of wigs and braids anymore.
Its crazy we started around the same time I hit 4 years in April... I go back and forth on combing them out for micro locs but it seems the same regardless on the size with maintenance..... still debating because I don't want to loose my progress
Your hairbis stunning!!
Thank you! ☺️💞
Your hair is beautiful! My only regret is the fact that I jumped on getting an appointment sooner than my original date and I didn’t get to color/bleach my hair beforehand. Don’t think I’ll be bleaching at all…🙃
Thank you! ☺️
I’m getting my starter locs tomorrow 🎉my birthday is Saturday 🎂 I’m going for 80-100 locs thanks for the information. I’m going to grab some of that shampoo
I wish you a successful loc journey!
I use the shampoo. It does a great job o cleaning without stripping. I am also baffled by people going months without shampooing. Shampooing regularly is necessary for many reasons. It helps the hair lock, helps the hair receive moisture, and cleanses. Thanks for sharing.
YES! And if your scalp is not healthy you can forget about heathy hair.
Your hair is so gorgeous, I love it so much. My husband is Guyanese, and he has way more thick, natural locks, that I will help him re-section out so he can crochet it himself. WAY less maintenance than even your hair, but I totally get what you mean about shrinkage! Took him forever to get any sort of length. I'm curious if either of my daughters (mixed) will want to lock their hair at some point. And it's so interesting that they have such different hair textures! My oldest has very tight coils, and my younger one has MUCH looser ringlets. Super cute for both of them. I love it all. When I was younger I actually wanted to be a hair dresser, and worked for one for a while. She did all sorts of textures, and even specialized in mostly silk wigs. I learned so much from her.
Wow I wish l could see a family photo! I can only imagine how beautiful your family is. ☺️💞
Your locs are gorgeous! I considered getting sisterlocs but I backed out. It would make sense since I keep my natural hair mini twisted anyhow.
Your hair is beautiful! I'm 4 years with Sister Locs on 11/20! I have so much length and fullness it's not even funny. I did have a trim a couple months ago because of the varying lengths from the initial locking process. By the end of the year I'll be almost bra strap length or very close to it. I love to do pipe cleaner curls on me because it literally lasts a month and doesn't require much manipulation after. Then the rest of the time I let it hand straight. I love I have so much hair freedom, confidence and always vacation ready!
THANK YOU Dr. Ash! I love your locs as well. They look so soft and beautiful.💞
Hey Sharida 🙋🏾♀️, let's hear about your journey
Hey Sharida! I’ve been thinking of locking my hair for over a year however I’m always changing my hair so I’m concerned I may get bored with the same style. However I’m getting older and I’m tired of figuring out what to do with my hair, I don’t want to get relaxers anymore and natural hair is a lot. I’m going to think about it some more. Thank you for sharing
Love seeing your thumbnails,when scrolling through RUclips. Always gorgeous hair and makeup.❤ Tutorial?
Looks good!!
🙏🏾 Thank you! ☺️💞
Your hair is beautiful. I’ve considered locking my hair but unsure. Been natural since 2008. I have an aunt and cousin who have sister locs.
Thank you Angel! I am loving them so much I must say!
Your hair is beautiful 🤩
Thank you Latonya 💞
You are gorgeous! ❤
Thank you 🙏🏾 😘
Your hair looks healthy and beautiful.
Thank you Bev! 🙏🏾💞
Has it really been 4 years already 😳
Right 😵💫I had to do that math because it feels like three lol. But it’s definitely been 4 lol
36K👏🏾🎉🫶🏾 Congratulations 🎈🎉
Awww ❤THANK YOU Sis!
Lol ion know nothing abt women hair but still had to stop by to support💯🤙🏿💪🏿 "THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
🥰🫶🏾💞 Thank you Deon!
The only issue I've really had (if you can even call it an issue) is frizz. That and I've got some wily, disrespectful grays around my edges🙄 But this has definitely been the best hair decision I've made to date! Two and a half years of (mostly) hair freedom. I couldn't have imagined this feeling as a loose natural😂
I usually just do a light spray with water and tie down with scarf to kill the frizzy look, which is major close to retie time.
Love the locs. How did you pick your loctician
I watched a ton of Sisterlocks RUclips videos from Tunisia Ali and found out she also lived in Atlanta. She mentioned Ifraj and I sought her out. So glad 🙂 I did.
You know I’ve been thinking about loc-ing, but I need a transplant 1st, and I want to make sure I’m done having kids cause postpartum shedding did me sooo dirty with my daughter 😭
I know you have wanted to see a video on this, but you can for sure DM any questions at all if you need help navigating. I doubt I will do a dedicated video on it.
@@SharidaM will doooo! Thanks in advance 🥹🙌🏾🫶🏾
i’m 9 months locked today! wish i did it years ago!!
Yes! The journey just keeps getting better!
Sharida, what do you mean you are in your fourtys? I'm thirty and i look like I could be your mother 😂. I need to start working out asap. You are gorgeous ❤
42 honey lol.
You are selling it to me Sharida, since I've been following you I've always admired your locs. I have a tighter hair type than you, 4c so not sure what my results will be like.. Any advice?
You will never know what results you will get. 2 people with same hair type can still have very different looking locs. I always just say stay open to the journey.
They are beautiful, you are beautiful. Are they expensive to maintain?
Not at all I pay for my retie every 5 weeks and thats it.
@@SharidaM Thank you
Hi Sherida, what did you use to lighten the ends of your locs. Thank you
I got professional Balyage highlights with honey and brown tones prior to my install.
@@SharidaMThank you for responding to me.
No purple shampoo for the ends to neutralize the blonde?
No I have not used anything special to maintain the color.
I would hate to have someone install my locks and then look for someone to maintain them. That doesn’t sit well.
Your locs are phenomenal. I've been contemplating it for a while but still haven't done it😩. I know have to stay committed to the journey and maintenance. Idk if I'm ready for it.
Yeah I get it. Definitely the most important things to consider. I was so over being loose natural, but was also over covering up my hair and relaxing. So I finally just took the leap and so happy I did.
Do you still braid and band?
Sharida, you sister locks are pretty! I'm good. My hair is super thin. Sister locks looks so fragile.
They are definitely not fragile. They are small but strong! I have no thinning, damaged or lost any locs.
Please don't cut them 😢
They will have to be cut at some point lol. I definitely don't want to go past Classic length. Guess I will for sure have to say bye to my curly ends then.
Hey! My experience was like yours. I loved every stage. I have no problem. Started in 2020 as well. My hair was shorter though. My routine is also very simple. I do moisturise more often cause I'm in the Caribbean and it's very hot. Never done the edges. Did the Bleach and colour once. It was fun. It has grown out now though.
Makeup and body routine too please 🙏🏽 ❤love your content ma’am!
