😍 your videos have helped me decide that "semi-freeforming" is the path for me and my locs
The semi free form is a good look on you!
+Angela Elaine Wouldn't have it any other way! :)
Your words brought tears to my eyes. I can relate with you completely, from the hair journey to the depression & anxiety. I've been struggling with depression & anxiety for years, and it was made worse by my recent postpartum depression- but I feel like my loc journey is a sort of healing process for my soul. My daughter's name is also Lauren! You are beautiful. Keep 'em coming, and stay strong.
+NewMummy28 I can definitely relate, you're not alone in this journey! Both with locs and in life. These locs have helped ground me and kept me growing in every way. Like you said, it was a great healing process, and still continues to be! I really appreciate your kind words, stay strong and stay blessed
yes because your hair is your spiritual antenna!!!
Locs fits you beautifully!
Congrats! On your 1 year locaversary!!
+MsMalika64 Thank you so much!! :D
6 months onward seems to be when things really get interesting. Also you remind me a lot of lauryn hill lol. Loving your journey, keep us updated, peace.
+Happylocs Thanks as always, HappyLocs :)... Keep up your videos as well! Your hair is getting really thick and coming along great, keep growing
😂😂😂 "call me on shaneekas phone Jackson" idk why I find that hilarious
oh and your hair + skin is beautiful!!
My channel is helping me get through the different phases of my loc journey. Your hair is beautiful! Keep up the good work.
Wow, your locs have really grown and they are beautiful, many congratulations to each individual loc!
+murphypro1 Thank you so much! :)
Great video! Really enjoyed the flashbacks. Your hair has transformed so much, and your locs are beautiful! You've had so much growth! Congratulations on making it to one year! Thanks for your transparency! God bless you! Keep shining:)
+Natural Nirvana Hey! Thank you so much for the support! That really means a lot :) We gotta keep growing, in every way
I cant believe 1 month has already passed. I feel like I just watched your 11 month update.
They look really really good. If I had larger locs, I'm fairly certain I would also just separate my locs instead of twisting them. They look beautiful. I'm excited to see what more is coming from your locs!
+MissJoyceMD Hey there! Thank you so much! I can't believe how fast time went by...I'm excited for what the next year has in store :) I can't wait to see your locs progress as well!
Yayy!! Im a year in August and ive been watching you the whole time😃. Keep it up momma we are all in this together!
+Danni Braswell We are all in this together!
Updates?
I love your hair from beginning until now, they are so beautiful and your hair looks healthy and thick. Great video
+Dana Dane Thank you so much, Dana! :) Thanks for watching the videos
Your journey reminds me of my own ....simple because of how it sticks up in the air......I work in the hotel industry and as a result appearance is very important and I would struggle with keeping my locs laid and neat....so I appreciate seeing someone who went through what I did ...
Your Locs are Beautiful!!!! I'm 3 months in w/semi free-form!!! Best of Luck w/ locs!!!!!
Your locs are beautiful my sister!! 👏🏾👏🏾❤️
+TotallyFreedomTV Thanks, sis!! :D
Authentic TV watch her videos .. she talks about that all the time lol .
Awesome locs!!! I've been following your journey and it did seem to go quickly. Love your videos. Keep them coming. Congratulations!!!
+Lynn Mosby Thank you so much for the support!! I really appreciate it :)
Hi lauren what can i say beautiful head of locks. i started mine myself and i semi free form for my 3 months never retwist or palmroll just shampoo little oil and water. now my friend just keep bothering me to retwist i refuse seeing your locks give me the courage to go on doing it my way. Bob Marley would be proud of them beautiful locks you are wearing. thanks for sharing.looking forward for more of your growing. one love.
+Marjorie Banton Wow, I really appreciate that! It can be tough and a little awkward in the beginning, I truly understand that. But if you keep it going, they will mature and be so unique to you! Keep going, and keep growing! Much love to you :)
Congradulations on one year! Your locs are very nice. I'm 8 months in. Four to go. Stay loc'd. All love in the loc fam
+Cee Bo You're almost at one year, keep it up! It will fly by before you know it. Stay loc'd as well, thanks for the love
Thank you. Thank you for showing all the fazes your Locks went through in the first months of locking. Sometimes they only show the end results of what Locks look like after 6 months to 1 year. We need to see what they look like in the misbehaving stage.
It helps when you can see everyone went through this unruly stage.
Go queen!!! You're awesome! Thanks for sharing your testimony. Be blessed luv..
Thank you so much!!
Happy Loc Birthday! Your locs are marvelous, so excited for you!

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I'm so addicted to their channel! A new one came out this week, the last video was so INTENSE lol
Love love LOVE your hair!! Do you mind me asking how many locs do you have? I plan on locking my hair soon and would like to have mines grow out to be your size.
+Adelmonica19 Thank you! :D I have about 90, but I recommend getting the right amount of sections that fit your hair thickness and the thickness you want your locs to be. Are you going to a loctitian or are you doing it yourself?
Lauren Jackson I plan on going to a loctician to just start it and maybe go back every 3 months for maintenance.... BUT I'm really feeling yours so I may not even go back at all :) Thank you for the advice!
Congrats!!! They look nice!!
+NaEpOoH24 Thank you so much!!
so cool. wish i would've taken pics or videos of my locs!
your hair looks great!
Congrats!!!! Your Locs look great.
+Mur Bonn (Blovshy) Thank you so much! :D
Ms. Lauren.. you are Gorgeous and I definitely agree that your style of loc's suits you very well. I feel the same way about my locs. I never had a stable since of style even with clothes. but my locs fit me great I feel. "THIS IS ME" I completely relate..
Your locs look really nice.
+DoNateDaily Thank you! Your locs have been coming along nicely too! Keep us updated :D
Girl you so pretty with them thick locks am trying to grow mine back thicker this time around
Hey Lauren! I hope you’re hair is still keeping up! You look beautiful with the free form look.
Nice I hear ppl keep on saying u dont wash your hair so often but I wash my hair everyweek because I sweat a lot in my hair
+Mel Mel Smart thinking! You do what works best for you! Especially if you're active to keep them clean.
Loving your locs❤
Congrat. I love your hair be blessed. New sub.
+carmen burns Thank you for subscribing! Welcome to the channel :)

+Locxsmith Bravo Thank you so much! :D
Your locs are absolutely beautiful, they fit you perfectly!
+natural woman Thank you so much!!
Congratulations. You're hair looks Amazing!!!!! .... 💯💯💯❤
Much Congratulations to making it to a year! I love the journey you took your hair seems so free and light! I wish I wouldn't have interlocked to keep the roots because it thinned them in my opinion now I'm waiting on them to grow out and trying to do as little maintenence as possible maybe I will stop retwisting it's pretty pointless for me we have a similar texture and design I have the bangs in the front and I love Lauryn hill too!! love your videos I watched a few of them more than once!
they look great nice 1 year im still tuned stay locked 🔒they're thick
+bigjs locs Thanks for staying tuned! :)
+Lauren Jackson np

Se tion 80 baby! Love the hair
Nice..
Congrads
I love your videos!
lovely locs Ms Jackson 😍😋
Much appreciated! :)
Lovely as usual! Do you have problems with the locs trying to combine? I try to semi- free form but after a month or so they are so combined I feel like I have to re-twist it a little. Do you have any tips or advice on keeping them apart
+Carson B. Thank you as always, Carson B. :) My locs actually don't combine too much. Even in the beginning stages, they kind of stayed in their individual locs. I feel like my hair has always wanted to loc, and once it could, it stayed! Also, my loctitian was very experienced, and she sectioned my hair in a way where each loc had the right amount and they seemed to stay in place. But, stray or loose hairs definitely still happen, and I gently separate, or twist the loose hairs into the closest loc. I will be uploading a new video on loose hairs soon! Stay tuned, thanks for watching as always
+Lauren Jackson thanks! my hair just seems to want to form one giant loc ha-ha. I didn't go to a very experienced loctician when I first got mine and that might be the problem. I look forward to the next video :))
You are beautiful inside and out ❤
you have awesome locs, i'm looking for that look altho' for a male one
Hey Lady! Where are you? This popped up in recommended list and I said "I remember Her!" I wonder what she is up to now. Only to check your vids and you havent made any in years. What's going on with you? How are you?
thanks for sharing
+O Walker Happy to share with you :)
Beautiful🌷💐🤗🌷💐🤗love you and your lovely Locs🌷🤗💐🌷💐🤗

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S ! ! ! !
+Y Sho T H A N K Y O U ! ! :D
Awesome video ! I'm about 8 months into my journey. What was the name of the shampoo you use? I use Dr.bronner's tea tree soap and it cleans really well but leaves my hair really dry .
+Dorian Steele Thanks for checking it out! I use MillCreek Botanicals Balancing Jojoba. I found it at the Vitamin Shoppe. It works fine, it's not as runny or drying as Dr. Bronners, but it left my scalp a little itchy at first. But all is good now. Have you ever tried the peppermint version of Dr. B's?
I have not tried the peppermint version, I'll give it a try along with Millcreek. Thanks for responding! Peace and light on your journey.
i remember you briefly mentioning about you soaking lemon juice in your hair to lighten it but I can't find it. Can you elaborate or please show me where it is?
I love your video 📹
congratz. do you air dry?
+fatgirltracey Thank you! I definitely air dry. But I also wrap them up in a towel (gently) right after showering.
Hello!😊 I'm going to get LOC'd pretty soon ...first of all let me say I love your hair! My semi-dilemma is that my hair "grays" a LOT. So I'm wondering if I should color my hair prior to my starter loc appointment or just leave it be since the gray will return in a "rage"😊 anyway? My loctician told me to keep in mind that once he starts/coils my hair, I won't be able to color it UNTIL it locs. By then, I'm quite sure the gray will definitely be back. What to doooooo? Please help if you can and thanks in advance.
Keep growing LOVE YOURZ
+Tafari aka young Lion Thank you as always :) Stay loc'd yourself!
+Lauren Jackson alwayz
+Lauren Jackson alwayz

Btw check out A.Wellington on RUclips.
+Belle Boucles I've watched a lot of her videos! :)
Beautiful body.
+StefJTay Thanks!
You're welcome.
should i use a shampoo to wash new locks after 3 weeks or just soap
I'd use a shampoo, and more of a natural one as well!
What should I use to moisturize my hair after??
After the wash
I used just water afterwords, I'd spritz my hair with water first thing in the morning to help wake it up. But if you need a little more moisture, I'd add a little bit of conditioner to the water. I personally used rosemary water (boiling the rosemary in water until it was infused). I found it worked pretty well! Hope this helps.
thank you soo much!!:)
shorty you single? damn
You're a cutie
Thank you! :)
You're welcome!!!! :) How many years have you had dreads?
Be my wife.
