@@retha90 Thanks for asking! It's been great so far. I just had my 3rd retie on July 5th. I'm coming up on my 6 month mark in August. I can tell that my hair has started to bud and loc which is exciting but I still get some slippage around the perimeter of my hair which is the looser texture. I'm following the instructions my loctician gave me and my hair has been thriving.
I have about the same hair texture as urs. Would u say the two strand method was best for u or u wish u would’ve chose the braid method? I stay going back and forth with this . While I like that braids would make it more uniformed , less frizz and more length , I love the twist look, the fluff and bounce and fullness . What to do what to do 😂😂😂
Your hair is beautiful! I have 3c hair and I think I have slippage on one side of my hair 😫 I go for my third retie on 3/2 hopefully she says it’s not bad. I’m about 6 mos in!
Bunching is part of the locking process! Don't correct it! Your locs have to go through the "teen" lumpy bumpy frizzy phase at some point to make it to maturity. Let it do what it does, that's the best way to lock your hair!
Also, I was self maintaining and had some of the issues you talked about at 17:12. It helped me to sit in the mirror and repart my locs during every 3rd or so retie session. So basically reestablish my original grid. I expect I'll be able to space this out to every 3-5 reties as my hair matures but it's been helpful in making sure my grid stays crispy like I like it! The other two sessions I just retie w/o a mirror and go solely based on touch. Maybe that would help?
Great video! My microloc appointment is on Friday 02/23/24. I have 3c/4a texture hair and it's about 16-18 inches. I can't wait!
It’s been some months. How’s your microloc journey going?

Thank you! Just rose water.
Hi, love your videos and loc updates. You mentioned your loctician moved to Houston. Would you mind sharing their info?

How do you moisturize ?
I moisturize with rose water
How long does it take you to do your reties
if I do them - 15-24hrs . if loctician does them, 4 hrs
