      After a month it would turn to locks and you will loose a lot of hair with the take down unless you never wash it. She had to take it down in a week or two...she will still loose a lot of hair with the take down. It’s definitely not a low manipulation hairstyle. That hairstyle is only good for women who have straight or chemically straight hair.

      Thank you so much for the ideas but i was only able to leave the twists in for a little over a week because i had other content to film, I really wanted to leave them in longer😩. As for styling, I basically styled them how i style my loose twists. If you’ve seen my “how to style loose twists” video, i did the exact same styles. The only other extra styling i did was when i curled the twists with rollers and i filmed that, so it should be posted by next week. To refresh the twists, I simply spray water, apply a leave in and then a cream directly on to the twists. Sometimes, if the ends of a few twists come undone, i apply curly magic to redo the ends. You can also braid them overnight if you wanna stretch them and i slept with my hair in a satin scarf. I kept checking one random twist every 2 days to see if locing was occurring, but I didn’t have any locing within the time i had the twists. I plan on doing this again in December or January, when i can keep them longer for about 3-4 weeks to see how they last and how my hair behaves. I’ll definitely do updates on that.

    I get so happy when I see other Black girls do mini twist. It is so such a perfect hairstyle, you can wear it down, middle part, side part, you can style tor anyway your want, easy moisturizing it, just throw a scarf and bonnet on and your good to go. It also is the key why my hair grew so long to the middle of back and I been doing this hairstyle for YEARS. I keep mine in for usually a month (I have 4C hair, high porosity, and middle back length). You did yours so well and it’s so cute.💕

      @@huldatachiri9613 Depends on the locking technique you used to start them, how long you've had them and how small they are. For 210 locs installed using the two-strand twist method, they'd come out pretty easily with lots of conditioner even after 6 months. With tinier locs or the interlocking method, it can still be done, but it's a headache and a half and takes forever and a day. PLUS, you'd lose so much hair with the later, that it's truly not worth it IMO. I'd much rather just do a big chop and start over.

It's such a pity that there's still so much self hatred within our own community and that people prefer to follow youtubers whose hair they would like to have, whose hair they desire, meaning, curly, softer curls and "mixed" hair, instead of following someone with actually the type of hair they have and learning to take care of it. You should have so many views, but as much as people are appreciating more the black hair, they are appreciating the types of black hair that is more culturally valued. Such a pity. But please, continue to do what you do. I don't always comment but I share your videos with my friends and I don't apply everything you say and do in my daily life because I am lazy, but I really appreciate to have someone talking about a hair that looks like mine, styling it, etc. And I do take away many tips to better take care of my hair (when I do it).

    If your hair is tangled after mini twists, it could be that your not moisturizing your hair enough. I advise usually Kinky Tresses products, in conjunction with spritzing your hair with a spray bottle of water twice a day.

    This is so cute, but I definitely wouldn’t have time to try it. Sister locks would look so cute on you, but I wonder what the maintenance is like.

    Yeah I have done this before
    But sis I swear never to do it again
    I got some muscles in one day 😁
    I enjoyed my twist for 3weeks and I Never got tired of them but for the safety of my hair I took them out
    After seeing this video I feel tempted to do it again 😁

    Girl, I watch loc vids too. Love them. I had a relaxer 5 years ago so I prob won't do a permanent style like locing for a while. I'm enjoying my loose hair. But when I get older and tired of this detangling game.... chile!
    You look good in those minis! Locs of any size would look great on you!

    When I mini twist, I usually wrap it as if it was straightened. It will have a bit of bump at the ends as well..I am a true 4c like you.

    I used to do 16 loose twists for wash day and I would get so exhausted !!
    So I reduced it to 8 twists, 4 on each side. And that is more than enough for me.

    Your hair is beautiful. It took me 10 hrs straight putting in micro twists and my hair isn’t even as long as yours. I never tried micros when my hair was longer, it I definitely will.

    Whats the secret how to keep the commitment over and over and over I am growing mine and I find difficult to keep my hair kept nicely. U rock friend

  • @TheNYCndn
    @TheNYCndn 4 года назад +1

    I’m so happy you did this video 😊 Do you plan to keep them in for a few years since your still considering sister/micro locking? I was in the same place but now I’d never lock my hair and here’s why:
    My hair is 16 inches, super fine, medium/low density, frizzy 4a/b. My main reason was to grow long hair without losing so much in the brush on wash days. Like you I was considering microlocs so did a full “grid” with aprox 430 twists. It took 3 full days doing it myself.
    If I go 4 wk before retwisting my hair has already started matting in areas and it takes 7 days to fully retwist! So now I just redo a small section every week, wash my hair 2x w/ water or vinegar. I rarely use conditioner and Castor oil & Shea butter are my main staples. Also I only finger detangle, no brushes or combs. At night I sleep with 2 braids and a bonnet so “wake and shake” is real thing now.
    As a professional hairstylist from NYC I can say this is the best for retaining African hair for long length and I should have done this 20 years ago... like seriously. Someday when I reach my goal I’ll take them out but for now I finally have shiny pretty hair that I never had when loose. I’ve been rocking my twists for 5 months now and can definitely see the length.
