Based on the video:
Do’s
1. Protect your hair, i.e Satin or silk scarf
2. Deep clean hair, ACV rinse
3. Let your hair down, be free
4. Steam your locs in the shower
5. Use natural based products, i.e sheabutter, oil, water
6. Love your journey 🙌🏾
Don’t
1. Don’t be a product junkie
2. Don’t Retwist to often
3. Don’t change your method of retwist to often
4. Don’t manipulate your hair too much i.e tight Styles
5. Don’t hyper focus on how your locs are forming
THANK YOU!!
❤❤
You are the real MVP. Thank you.
Thank you! It's frustrating that creator's don't summarize their videos. Argh! I understand they want you to watch but geez, give us the highlights.
Even though you said that no locs are perfect, girl yours are PERFECTION.
🥺🥺 thank you 😩 definitely not perfect I promise! But thank you sis 💖
Right lol! 😍
This month makes 2 years into my log journey. When I started they were very very short. Thing is tho, I did not have an ugly stage and that I believe is because I thought long and hard before I started my journey, I watched every video on locs that I came across and in so doing I knew what to expect every step of the way. I embraced all the stages, never thought of wearing a wig, hat or any form of head wear to hide my locs, instead I left them out to do what they wanted to do. I’m so in love with my hair and I always have something to look forward to as time goes by.
This comment was gold!
“As my hair grows, I grow with my hair”. I love this and I love your energy! Such a beauty! Just subbed and can’t wait to continue watching you flourish. ❤️
Thank you 👍🏿 I'm taking notes 📝
Be careful "satin" is not a material, but a method of weaving. So always check the satin's material (cotton, polyester, silk, nylon...)
OMG! Wow!!! I did NOT know that!!! Thank you for saying that!!!!!
@@Battny 😊 You're welcome
What should I use if I can’t afford a silk pillow?
@@alexopal7830Yes, real silk is pretty expensive 😅
Most of the time, the scarves and caps that we find at beauty stores for less than 10€/$ are *polyester satin*. It's good enough
@@g.k.3598 Okay Thankyou 😂 I’m gonna have to save up for that silk one bc chile
Wow! You're right, my hair can tell when I'm not feeling like myself!! I've never thought of that but my hair is literally an extension of me...
I'm five days into my loc journey 🤗
Same...now
Omg me too!!! Today is day 5
I love the way your locks look
Thank you!! 😊
OMG I'm so happy I watched this video! I'm on my loc journey and I the main reason I started is to love myself more regardless of how my hair looks and practice consistency. 💕
I found this video. SO helpful. I’m at the stage of deciding WHEN to start this LOC journey. Looking forward to more videos.
Giiiirl, stop pondering and join us 🙄🤣❤
You won't regret it
@@selenemiller9976 Lol. My sister told me the same thing. My appointment is 11/8/21. 🤣🤣🤣. She like girl do it tomorrow. I was like noooooo. I made the first step and booked my appointment.
@@deidrefranklin9674 yaaaaaas sis 🙌🏽
me too lol
you are literally the ONLY youtuber to say that water is great....ive had locks for more than 5 yrs with 2 separate journies and water is what helped my hair lock both times...by 9 months my hair was locked and loaded lol
Ooppp! I’m glad someone knows the deal! People are clearly sleep on water when it comes to locs! They 100% help your hair loc faster! 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 you already know what’s up
"Because water is moist" lol loved that...loved all the other tips as well. Thank you for putting me on to the steaming. I'm 6 months into my journey and I don't feel like my locs are dry but I did wonder what people did to get that moisture in. Great video
I love this video!! I haven't started my journey yet but it's coming soon! I didn't realize how your hair matches your mood. I've been wearing weave forever and now I'm ready to age gracefully with gorgeous locs. This video is fun, relatable, extremely informative and engaging. Thank you so much.
Whenever I start my locs I hope my mindset of “frizz” goes away 😂 I like a neat edge for sure.
im so happy I found this video! I start my locs june 3! im so excited, wish me luck 🤞🏾✨
You don't need luck girl, you goood! Congratulations on your journey!
How’s your llc journey going?
I start 11/2. Hope I don’t back out.
Thanks for the info... I'm 5 days into my loc journey. I'm loving it.
3 months faux locs hair locked some. Today I started my own starter locs ( Two strand twist)❤🎉 thank you goddess
I'm starting my locs today. Super exited and super scare. Lol thank you for your do's and don'ts very helpful and most definitely and an eye opener. ❤
I loved your video. I'll be starting my locs (starter locs) on 7/31. I've been wanting to do this for quite some time now. I love your go with the flow attitude. I'm 12 years natural and have truly embraced my natural journey and I KNOW I'm ready to start this journey! Thank you again for all the tips. I will be incorporating them! Peace & Blessings!💞
thank you love! congrats on starting your journey and welcome to the family! exciting isn't it?! Going with the flow def takes off pressure for a certain outcome that's for sure!
12 years?! that's a long timeee!!! No problem, im glad I could help! 💖
Absolutely loved this video. Your energy and advise makes me love my locs even more. I'm 2 months in and was told by my loctician that I was going to hate them at first but I've loved them since day one. Loving my journey.
I love that you let your locs do what they do! So inspirational🤗🤗🤗🤗 Your locs are gorgeous 🦋🦋🦋💎💎💎
Thanks for recommending a deep clean at the 5 month mark 😀💛💓. I'm at the 6 and a half months mark and my locs are in the budding teenage stage 😀😀 I'll get onto it right away!
Just an update I used a 5 min spray mix coz my locs are short teenage and budding.
Hey! I have exactly 74 locs! Just started mine this week by interlocking 🤗! Super helpful video, thanks for sharing ❤️!
Congrats on starting your journey!
Thanks for this! I'm almost 4 months in and am learning to embrace the fuzz. I get my 2nd retwist next week! I'm super excited!
What do you moisturise with?
I came here for information...but I can't not comment on how fine this woman is...
Omg 🥺😭 thank you! That’s so nice! 💖
Same!
I love the water tip 🎉
Yep I found the one to follow! Our reasoning for locking our hair is very similar & Smart I will watch your videos weekly thank you
you’re gorgeous!!! thankyou so much for this video, very inspiring. im starting my loc journey in the next week and im excited 😁.
You are so positive! Thanks for good advice. Thinking of restarting locs.
Thank you so much 💖 that truly means a lot to me! You are very welcome!
Your video came at the perfect time! Lol It’ll be a week since I’ve started my journey and this video has been very informative!
Yay! I’m glad so (: congrats on starting your journey love! Peace and love to you!
Your locs are stunning. I just started my instant locs and kind wait to reach that length. Thanks for this great video. :-)
thank you so much! congrats on starting your journey! welcome to the family!
I'm almost certain I'll start my loc journey in January of next year. Been natural for about 8 years. Want my hair to get a little bit longer before I get starter locks
Definitely loving this video. Your like a life coach for locs 😂. Three years strong in the game this month 💪🏾. I have very fine soft textured hair, it’s definitely been a journey, but I love my locs. Over oiling my scalp is something I just learned is a problem with very soft textured hair, my hair retains moisture EXTREMELY well and it makes my hair softer than what it is (appearing as if it was thinning) Peace and love goddess.
"...a life coach for locs"
LOVE it!!!
You’re so beautiful. So looking forward to starting my locs! Thank you for this video 🙏🏾
Thank you very much for this advice! I’m 6 weeks in, Yh stale twists stage pretty much😩😩😂😂But yhhh! Still doing my research and thinking about starting a RUclips channel to tdocument my journey! Enjoyed this video and this advice!👌🏾

Thanks you so much for the info didn’t start yet really thinking on it yours look so nice thanks again 🥰
Yass i started my journey 3 weeks ago but why’s my hair growing out so fast 😀😀😀😆😆 am I see things or is it really happening
I just started my loc journey today and I asked my loctician if I should cover locs while I’m in the shower. I figured the water would help them because of the moisture. But I never thought about it speeding the loc process. Thanks for the tip!! 💜💜🫶🏾
And I instantly subscribed when you said you started your locs so you could learn to love yourself regardless of what your hair looked like , because that’s the exact reason I started mine. 😭🥹💜
Amazing video ! Thank you ! I subscribed and saved , please keep this up ! ❤️
Locs so good your lamp got one too lol.
The music is a little too loud. 🥺
Just a tad. ♥️
Ooopp, thank you for the feedback babes! 💖 I definitely appreciate it! Will keep that in mind for next (:
😅
my girlfriend started doing the acv treatment 10 months in her loc journey
Because the oil I have is called Jamaican minion and lime Island oil it has seed oil and some type of honey in it and it says shoes and moisturizers scalp nourishes from Roots to ends and the strengthens locks and there's no build up
Mango*
Thanks for the tips! Love ur locs! Beautiful!
I started my loc journey this month on the 1st
Thanks for the does and don’ts . I am ready to go locked for my very first time. I would like to know if you did your own starter locks. Thinking of doing my own since I got so much time and I live in a small white town with no lock support.
Oh by the way, your locks look awesome. I been wearing braid corn rolls for a year to get some length. Maybe I will start with comb curls. Taking in as much information as I am learning the process to make my journey painless. Thanks
Love your hair!!!! I’m thinking about locking my hair
By the way, love your locs. 🖖🏻
Great video ij started my two strand twist loc on 10-10-22 & the steam stops my hair from itching so much... Thanks
Absolutely beautiful locs
I sooo needed this video. Thank you!
Great vid I'm a loc newborn...just started 4/23/21 so I'm bingeing vids...I used tropical locking gel but want to go clean...moisture, water, oil scalp is that a good move?
Thank you! 😊 welcome to the family! Heck yeah it’s a great move! That’s all I’ve done on my journey! Just Shea butter, oil and water!
🙌🏽Awesome video and wonderful voice, beautiful hair and personality.
I will.be cleaning my locks with a tooth brush, aI feel it will help with cleaning my locks that arw 17 months old
Thank you for all the right product to use.Love the video
Always! 💖
thanks for the information am always wondering why some locks look like that now I know that the retwist do it, so let me know how you start to locks if you just get up and twist it and leave it to lock, let me know.
Very helpful! Thank you so much 🙏🏾💖
Great tips, thank you Goddess ❤
Loved this vid, I'm feeling your energy Ms. ❤️
You're dead on Queen! I've been through all the stages 😂 I'm so happy now.
Yeah everyone says don’t let your locs get wet but o felt like they craved some type of moisture
You are amazing and beautiful. Your locs look so healthy.
thank you so much! I appreciate the love!
I love your hair!!
What color did you dye your locs?
Wondering that as well. And if she used a box dye
Great advice
Rosewater is the best
Right?!
I LOVE ROSEWATER 😌 ITS AWESOME💞💞💞
How long have you been growing ur hair to get to this length
I really love your videos so informative. I'm seven months in should I do a deep cleanse?
Thank you sister! 💖 I appreciate your support so much! I’m going to assume when you wash your locs they aren’t unraveling? If so, YES!!!! YES x 171272 lol I really wish I started deep cleaning much sooner in my journey! I think you should be fine! Catch that build up before it’s too late!
I just looked at your channel and saw your locs, you DEF can deep clean!
@@Battny ok Thank you!!! My locs need some love lol
wont a clarifying shampoo work as a deep cleansing?
im tryna get like u gang , im 1 week loc’d up 😂😂
Hey I'm excited about my journey going on 3 weeks now how long do I have to wait til I get them retwisted n put a color on them
Can I let my locs hang free after retwisting them without damaging them? My locs are still quite new, 4th week and short, I’d actually call them baby locs. I’m not a fun of styling, My loctitian recommended always styling but since I’ll be retwisting my hair myself, I don’t want to do any styling and to be honest, I don’t know how to style my locs.
I have a mixture of 4a, 4b and 4c hair.
Loved your video! I just hit two months a week ago, these tips will come in handy!
As far as the Shea butter, wouldn’t that cause build up?
Thank you!! Congrats on two months!! 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾✨ def don’t apply the Shea butter itself to your locs! I always use like a spoon full- 2 (depending on how much oil I add) and add in my fav oils! And melt it all together and use it that way! In my experience, I’ve never had an issue with buildup using that mixture on my hair!
@@Battny Thank you so much!! 🥰 and Ahhh I see!! I will have to consider trying that out!!
Her:There is no such thing as perfect locs'
Also her:*has perfect locs*
how many locs do you have?
I Love Your Locs & I’m In The Starting Stage Of Mine, Is It Normal For Them To Unravel After Two Weeks?
Good video, thanks
So if I just started my locs like today and I take shower tmr I need to steam it ??
Been growing my starter locs for 3 weeks now can I wash em they starting to itch a lil and I can see a lil build up?
What is interlocing ❔
what do you think about getting a retwist and getting a style to maintain the retwist longer?
Idk sis, yours looking kind of perfect 🥴😂😭
Love this
Thanks boo! 💖💖
You better preach!!!!
16 secs ago but what’s up Batt 😌💖
AYEEE!!!! My faithful sis 💖💖💖 HEY SISTAAAAAAA
Good job girl
