One thing we should normalize is our natural face with no makeup. You do not look crazy. You look normal. You look fine!! And it’s ok to be comfortable in your skin and posting without makeup on. Other peoples opinion about it don’t matter. Hugs
I looked a hot mess with my hair all over my head like that 😂 🤷🏽♀️
Amen!
@@marquettabreslin nonsense! You look great, and that is one bomb theme song! I literally subscribed because of it.😂😊
Hahaha! Thanks for the sub!!! ❤️
You looked good!
I love the concept of cornrowing your hair first and then start each twist from the individual cornrows. 🙌🏾
I just did this and it worked out great. It's an investment of time to get the rows all done, but worth it and makes the process faster and smoother overall.
Yessss such a smart idea
Yes it works been using this and another method for years keeps it neat ❤
I love it!! I did my daughter's the exact same way but she has more of a grid because she actually really wanted sister locs but couldn't afford them; her hair was mid back length. I took 4 days and she had 541 micro-locs. Congratulations!
Omg….the OG of braiding! I can’t believe I just found your channel. You taught me how to braid before there was social media and I bought your dvd’s on how to braid.
So did i
I love it! ❤ I have been wearing my micro locs/ Sisterlocks for over 23 years. I have also been a micro loc stylist for 23 years. You did a great job and I applaud you. 👏🏾. Continue to educate yourself on the process and know that your locs will evolve and change over time. I have taken a couple of your classes and made a wig or two for myself…yes you can wear a wig over them even when they’re mature locs. 😊 You did a wonderful job!
WOW!! That’s amazing!!
Thank you so much!! I’m learning so much but there’s also lots of conflicting information.
Thank you for the support!! A huge reason why I chose to do them so small is so I can still wear wigs when I want. With them smaller I can make them flatter. At least for now. I don’t know what they will look like when they loc.
Where are you located ?
@@carolcanady9059 I’m in Marietta Georgia
I live in Central Valley, Fresno CA . How can I find a location for my grey hair?
Thank you Mum for hanging with us even though you're not 100% We love you! You too Dad! ❤️
As a 30 year veteran in the industry this Loctician approves this video❤You did a great job i am here for it. If you ever have any questions please reach out. This is the new you and it looks good on you Queen ❤.
You are absolutely beautiful. I was just talking about not being filtered and transformed with make up all the time. You did an amazing job with your hair.💞🔥
Thank you!
Let be honest....you look beautiful with your NATURAL FACE!!❤
Thank you for sharing your Micro Locs journey! I too am starting my journey as well. I love RUclips University!
The tension from wigs is my issue as well. Migraines are no joke. I have suffered with Chiari Malformation type 1 so to all my beautiful Sisters out there who can't where wigs. We are in this together 🤗🙌!!
☺️☺️🥰
Wow! You are the only other person I know with Chiari Type 1. No one besides medical practices know what I am talking about.
I just did my 2nd full retie! It's not hard. I just set aside 2-3 days. I take my time! I make sure I have all I need to get it done! That kept $125 in my pocket 💜.
I want to try one day I'm on my 3rd reti since my install
I’m so happy to see you start microlocs! They look amazing on you!!!!
I will be a year in a couple of weeks! Best damn decision ever! I’ve been natural since 98 and never have gotten locs. And I agree, they remind me of a wash n go. I got tired of the maintenance of wash n gos. And not looking the same the next day. I absolutely LOVE my hair!❤❤❤
They look amazing!!! I can't wait to start mine in a few weeks!!!
RUclips University....love it!!! LOL
Sis your beautiful as you are, remember that. Makeup dont make the person. And your inside is more important, your heart.
Hey lady. I’ve been contemplating this for awhile. In my mind being a cosmetologist I think I can do mine myself.
Good to see you here.
Welcome to the family!! They look great and you did an amazing DIY job!! Small locs are something else to maintain😂 but as long as you’re consistent you should be good. Definitely recommend having somebody else do the re-ties unless you know you have the time and patience for it.
I started my locs myself on 4/20/20. Before I started combining I had 311 locs and was just dying to have more😂!! I’ve since combined some of them and I have no clue how many I have now lol. I have to do an updated count, but I think I’m in the neighborhood of maybe 290-ish
Thank you!! It’s so nice over here 😂.
I don’t have the patience for my own re-ties. I’m so thankful I found a loctician!!
I’m interested to see how these will look since I did them so small and there’s so many. 🤩
Your hair looks gorgeous. You did a great job.
Thank you so much!
@@marquettabreslin You're welcome.
❤️❤️❤️Well done on DIY! I'm following your journey.
OMG, I'm so glad I found you. I'm really debating doing my own microlocs. I can't pay all that. I ordered my hair already, so I'm getting there!
Love it! You did a great job!
I remember when you sold dvds teaching how to braid hair. So I’m glad that I can see your loc journey but I’m restarting my journey best of luck👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Color changes your hair texture, that is why it is a looser curl pattern on the ends. It looks great on you.
Beautifully done! ❤️
Congratulations Marquetta 🥰! Welcome to the micro loc world.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. My sweet Sista! Be proud of yourself! You did a GREAT JOB! Self maintenance is more than a notion! You have to be mentally ready to do your own reties! I'm 2 years loc'd now! I'm so excited about my hair!
Sis! Omg your hair looks phenomenal! I do my own reties. I’m to the point where I don’t have to look when I Retie and my parts remain nice. I honestly don’t mind having a not so perfect grid. But it’s not impossible to do a retie without looking. I did a video on it. You should check it out 💕
I’m excited for you. I’ve been thinking about microlocs for years and I think I’m going to do it real soon.
I say DO IT! You won’t regret it!
Can’t wait to see your process.
Beautiful and motivating!
Great job! It is beautiful 🎉
Thank you ☺️
My oldest sister had her microlocs for abt 7 months, my youngest sister goes for first retwist next week and I go for my consultation next week
I’m too excited
NEW SUBBIE!!! this is just how I STARTED!!!! Im 3 years in best thing ever did!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!
Your hair is beautiful! You did it! I have Sisterlocks and this is my fifth year! You are definitely going to enjoy your journey! ❤
Thank you!!! OMG! I wish I could fast forward to see what mine will look like in 5 years 😂😂
Just Beautiful‼️ I started my journey July 2022….and I use either perm rods or flexi rods on my locs like every other month just to have some sort of style…but u did that👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Beautiful, you did that!
Gorgeous!!!
I love it. You did great. I'm inspired to go for it. I wish I'd seen this video sooner.
I love these. They look amazing.
I love how much you love it. It looks great on you. Encourages me to do my own. I have considered it but I don't want locks so I'll probably stop with twists.
You did a fantastically fantastic job!!!!!❤❤❤
You did a phenomenal Job! I definitely did not have the patience to install my own. I chose Sisterlocks this year (July 2023!) Cheers to our New journey!
Wow....😍 You did an awesome job 👍
Your locs look great . My daughter mentioned that I should finally just get this done My hair is super fine and I’m getting over a bout with Alopecia /TE. I’m still conscious of the spaciness of the scalp but know that I’m tired of the braids etc. and I too was afraid of locking into one style : love flexibility. But yes I see that you can do so much more with sisterlocs or any locing methods. So glad I ran into your channel. You did a fabulous job. I’m all about diy but I will definitely go get mine done at least for now. Thanks for Al the info. And yes. You look great without makeup.
Awesome Job!
It looks so beautiful
Make sure you braid and band when you wash them❤
Thank you!
Love your hair , I have been sisters loc for 12 years, I just did a self retightening took me a week due to work, had problems in the back, used my iPhone to mirror the back to show on the TV so I could see what I was doing. You do a great job.
Oh my! I remember ordering a video from you years upon years ago on senegelese twists or kinky twists. You are one of the Goat at teaching in my opinion! Love you!❤
I started mine in April! I too interlocked a few and thought....this ain't it. So far I have retwisted all of them once and I think I will continue to do so. So far so good! You look great!
I so want to do this!! You did an amazing job!!👍🏽👍🏽
These look so good! You did a great job. Now I’m ready to do mine 😂 Thanks for sharing!
You done a great 👍🏽 job on them I love them😊
You did a great job!!
Your hair looks great! Good job
I am a new subbie. You did an awesome job on your micro-twists ! I really wish I knew about them before I got my sister-locs. My locs are now down to my knees. I love them, but I really love micro-locs. Thank you for sharing.
Your story going back and forth about it is where I am right now. I too love my fro but I'm over it. I had the same experience with braids. I've been feeling like locs is what I should do. I should just do it.
Good job they look awesome
You have the same mind set as me. I am in middle of doing mine. So excited. Thanks for sharing good to know, I'm not only one who thinks its chill.
Thank you beautiful! I just found your channel as well and I'm starting mine as well. I appreciate your journey and you explained very well. I believe that everything happens for a reason 'cause now you are empowered and can add this to your arsenal to doing hair. That was the reason for the interruption. Anyway, you look great! ♥
YOU DID A GREAT JOB!
Welcome to the loc world!!! I've been loced for almost 4 years and I wish I'd loc my hair sooner. I have sisterlocs but I used to two strand twist my hair really small all the time. I wish I knew then that I could've started my locs from that. Nevertheless I'm here now and I'm all in.
I'm ready to start.❤
Gorgeous ❤️
I'm currently starting my microlocs with interlocks. I've done them with two strand twists and the one thing I will say is that rope twists take longer to "loc" then just regularly two strand twisting your hair. Watching En Toi's videos on here has been helpful for me.
I don't think the grid is all that important, except for styling. You did an amazing job on your day install.
That’s the one thing I’m wondering if I should have done instead of the two strand twist method! My biggest reason for not starting them with interlock is because of the time. I had a short window to do it and couldn’t wait months to get in with a loctician.
I’m sure yours will be beautiful!!
Thank you! I’m sure yours will come out beautiful as well!
@@marquettabreslin I get that I was able to start mine with interlocks, mostly because my hair is so short and I have a lot of time on my hands. I'm excited for your journey!
Love them !!! I only bought 3 packs of afro kinky bulk hair. So I might just loc my natural hair
They look awesome
You have said everything I’ve said about getting locs!! And I also suffer from migraines!!!! I’m really considering
Do it!!!!! You’ll love every moment of it!
This is an awesome video… I love the way you did it. I too am a veteran seasoned stylist. I have been on the fence about locs for years, the commitment. I have come to my commitment crossroads. I’m preparing. Thanks for encouraging me. I’ll be following your journey and I also will be attempting this feat myself. (Crosses fingers)🤞🏽
Thinking about it, had thick long Locs before but they were to heavy, so I cut them and picked them out been loc free a year and 2 months now and I am wanting the micros now. So I just may give it a shot.
Omg! You’ve got microlocs now! I use to have them, but I shaved my head a few months ago. I might start them back in a year or two. Not sure yet. I am a Sisterlocks consultant as well and did my daughter’s hair as well. Your locs are beautiful! You did a great job! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love it… beautiful ❤️🥰🥰
Thank you. Thinking about loc' ng too! My concern is I'm a little older and changes in our bodies as we age. Love the cornrow method! A relief! Been doin' my youtube homework for a while...like you I'll "grid" some in the front....❤❤❤❤ Great job!!
You did a great job
Good job,Yandy ❤
When I interlock my traditional locs I start in the back. The grid just prevent hair growing into another loc. Great job!
My stylist just did hers! I waiting a year to see how she likes them because she is very honest!
It looks good on you!
U did a great great job I love them and I love mines the best thing I've done in a long time
Beautiful 🧡🧡🧡🧡
I am definitely going to loc my hair in a few days, just waiting on my girlfriend to come and help me with my diy LOCS, yours look beautiful, thanks for sharing.
I'm diy locs myself ❤ two years in just now doing my first Interlocking session. Yours look amazing, did mine the same way with two strand twists. I didn't really count. Nor have I been crazy about my grid. Love my look, different sizes, but all mine.
Wish I would have Interlocked at beginning, my roots tangle like mad tango dancers😂😂.
Your hair is going to be the bomb 💣 frfr.. I ❤ your color too…doing DIY yourself is amazing 🤗 I tired and said aht~aht I’m tired already and only did 10 braids 😭😂🤣 enjoy your journey 😊
Your hair is gorgeous! And BTW you did not look crazy without makeup. You looked like a natural black woman. They still want to be us with or without makeup. Mother of civilization. I just started doing my 2 strand twists to microloc. Hope it goes well but I'm determined.
Hi Marquette, you’ve done a good job with your starter locks, I was considering locking my hair, because am always in mini twist, you should’ve tried mini twist and treat it like locks to see if you would like it, but you probably will, am the same as you, I cannot wear braids, I had some put in, they were out the next day, I just kept having headaches, the smallest tension in my hair, makes me miserable 😂 so I stick to wearing my own hair, I choose comfort over hairstyle
I love your Hair I'm doing Research on The Micro Twist Locs I want to Start my Journey after my Wedding in a Few weeks. Thanks for the great info Oh And You did a Great Job😊❤❤
There beautiful and there you love them❤
❤🔥🔥 It's looks so good! Like you best decision I could have made for my hair. I wished I had of done it years ago...
It’s beautiful
I love this
You did an awesome job sis🫶🏾
Thank you!
Oh Wow You sound like me lmbo!!!! I Love smaller braids and I always said I'd never lock my hair but then these microlocs came along and blew my mind!!! I want them bad but my pockets don't allow me to pay someone soooooo I'm going to have to do it myself. I too used to braid and I am a licensed cosmetologist lol. I can do this!!! A friend was going to do it for me but I haven't heard from her which is really Disheartening but that's fine I can do this!!! Thanks for sharing and you've encouraged me to move forward 🤎!!! Oh and I have a Mohawk so it won't take me as long lol.
Thank you 🙏🏽
Beautiful
Thank you!
I'm starting mine with extention human afro kinky bundles. It's #51 color and i already found out how i can color it to match my real hair. Ill be using your cornrow method for my parting because that is absolutely genius! Ill be able to keep count from my hair rack so that i know exactly how many when i am done. Thank you for this video!
You did a great job. I do not have the patience to do it myself
Your loc so far are gorgeous.
Thank you so much!!
Your love look amazing. I did my sister super tiny and when it was time to retwist I did have to combine some together, only because they were to tiny. I noticed that when I started interlocking you must do the full rotation and make sure thetest rotation is going down to lay the loc flat. If you don't finish like that you run the risk of having the loc get knots and baby it becomes a mess getting the knot out .
Thank you!
Yep I learned that the hard way and decided immediately to find a loctician! 😂
They look good
