I'm in my baby locks stage and I'm really starting to enjoy it more than in the very beginning. It's been 2 months since my establishment and they're changing so much already. Thanks for the great tips! 😀
Marcia M You’re welcome! Thank you for your support! 2 months in! That’s what’s up (: I remember being between the 2-6 month time frame. It was like my hair was changing every 2 weeks!
LOL thank you =) I see you have the UK flag on your comments. I am from the US. I have never heard the term "no waffle" before but I REALLY like it. I am going to start using it. I love when I get comments from the UK. You alls style of English sounds so classy to me. I'm glad you are appreciating the info. I know most of the people watching my videos are 25 and up, grown grown! We don't have time to listen to someone attempt to get to the point for 10 minutes. I respect you alls time.
Nia A thank you for the reply made me laugh & that’s a gift just like your channel. So grateful to you & other youtubers for the wealth of knowledge you pass on without it my locs & journey would have been over a longtime ago. Yes “waffle” or “waffling” is when someone twitters on about nothing, something your not guilty of. 👍🏾🇬🇧
Thank you for posting this! Something I started researching sisterlocks by following Deviny’s Journey too! Comparison can definitely spoil the fun. That includes comparing to my loose natural hair journey because everything was on a whole different time scale in regards to length realization, which shows a lot faster than locs, and texture transformation, which is immediate for new growth unlike the process of locking. Looking at people with locs my length and thinking about my love of loc maintenance and the aesthetic has kept my happy.
Hi Jayla=) I do a lot of comparing my loc journey to my natural hair journey too. I thought I was the only one lol. When I first went natural I saw DRAMATIC change within the first 6 months. I did not see that much change in my sisterlocks after 6 months and it was disappointing for me. Now I am enjoying every stage of my journey and taking things slow.
I feel exactly the same...one thing that I’m really proud of is....I never covered up my babies after my installation....I was all in once I made the decision to get my installation 🖤
Thanks so much for the vid! Great advice as usual. 👋🏾 I’m guilty of not appreciating this baby stage. I just want my hair to get longer and fuller...like yesterday. 😂 I will say that I fall in love with my SLocks a little bit more with each shampoo. It’s already changed a lot in just a month. I would like to start a channel but I don’t know where to start. I have one YTer that has baby SL that I adore, JusDenyse.
Danise Phaedra Thank you 😊 . You should definitely start a channel ! Sit down and write down a list of 15 video ideas to get started then just go for it sis! I’m going to follow you now, because I’m speaking into existence that your channel is about to be popping (:
Nia A Hey there! Just wanted to let you know that I finally uploaded my vid: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4AhGNujsutY.html. Thanks so much for your encouragement! ❤️
Thank you so much! I try to make sure things are clear for everyone. I used to be a teacher lol. I guess that's why I have a certain communication style =)
Thank so much. You radiate beauty and joy. And I your voice is very soothing. It is contagious. 🌺❤️ I am at day 2, love it, growth and volume, please, here come!!! 🙏
Thank you for these great tips! Especially about not wearing your hair in stretched styles all the time. I get my sisterlocks established in two weeks and I’m so excited! But I’m also worried about how to style my hair. I’m going to definitely stock up on some cute accessories lol
I started my (2 strand twist with 4 point rotation) loc journey 20 Apr this year with 14" hair I'm budding and am now at shoulder length 😫 it's cool though. I left alot of hair out to keep the volume since my sides are shaved. Loc-ing was the best decision I made. You're beautiful!!
I did my own sister locs and have no grid so my locs are growing at different rates and sizes I have yet to see someone with free parting should I start over?
Lol you can definitely do twist outs when you have baby locs (: I just suggests giving locs a little time between twist outs to allow the locs to shrink up and loc. But definitely enjoy twist outs every now and again Sis (:
Thanks for the video. I definitely want to find someone who i can journey with. I’m 6 weeks SL. I’m in the baby stage. It been hard trying to found someone who has the same hair texture as mines. Hopefully my channel will help somebody with my texture find me. But I watch I love to watch Let’s Journey, Farrah Knows, & Abidemi Komolafe (Sisterlocks crush 😍)
Thank you so much. I’m sorry, it’s really hard to remember exactly how much because that was so long ago , but I want to say at least once a week. Now I wash them twice a week.
That’s a good question. I should of included it in my video. I’ve had my locs for 3 years, so when it comes to what stage of the locking process I’m in, I believe most would say my locs are mature. I see some connect loc stages to length as well. Length wise I would say I’m in the teenage stage.
Hey Nia! Thanks for the tips. I am looking into starting this journey and stumbled across your page. We've chatted in the past in that summer class we took together.
Mallory Malone hey Mallory ! I remember you! I hope you are well, and that you find my channel helpful (: Good luck this school year. I feel like we are all going to need it lol.
Question. Do you have a before lock pic? I’m curious the length of your hair before. Considering cutting my hair before sisterlocks to help cut down on the price.
