    Thank you for the reminder about keeping the density the same. I’m still working on my microlocs after getting inspired from your first video. With a toddler and nursing school responsibilities I am working on it a little at a time and wearing my hair in a bun in the meantime, but I’m super excited for when it’s finished! I am using kinky curly hair, and it’s exciting to know that I can change it to loose curly or any other texture whenever I want. Thank you for showing how to achieve this beautiful hairstyle and for being so transparent about it so that we can all look gorgeous together! Appreciate you tremendously! 🙏🏾🌺

    I still have in my last set of curly loc extensions (thanks to your videos) and they've held up pretty well but I haven't tried using the crochet hook yet. I will try that on my new install with this long Bohemian hair I just received.
    I usually don't use a brush, I just finger detangle when washing it in the shower and that helps to avoid too much shedding.
    Thank you for the detailed video! ❤

    I am so glad I saw this. So my plan is to do at least 400 braid locs and mix my actual hair with curly bulk hair at least an inch from the roots. That way my starter locs will match my ends from the jump. I have lower back length relaxed hair and a treatment I did to it made patches break off at above shoulder length. I am going to cut off the damage and install braid locs extensions... I may crochet boho pieces once I finish everything. I'm so excited and I'm going to start this whole process after Veterans Day 2024.

    @eduns123 4 месяца назад +3

    A lot of my ends are thinner than the bulk of my locs because of previous heat damage/breakage. So i have been having difficulty adding hair.
    Would you advise for me to just add the hair above where the heat is (some locs thats like half way up) or just wait and gradually cut the heat damage off

    • @dreamlocs
      @dreamlocs  4 месяца назад

      You should gradually cut off the heat damage. And when your locs are in a more healthier state attach the ends on 🩷. When I first start my clients locs, I always advise them to cut off any damaged ends. Therefore the extension won’t be thin at the ends. I hope that made sense ✨
