How Do Your Locs Grow Part 1 

Dante is very handsome and his locs are so healthy looking and gorgeous😍

I’m only 7 weeks in with microlocs. And I’ve always said that I’ll keep them shoulder length when they get there but after listening to Yanni, “my ends are my beginning” I love that. When I reach a year I’ll be in your chair you can bless my crown any day. Peace and Blessings Family 💕

"Your ends were once your beginnings.." Honey I love you! & appreciate all your videos. Thank you for sharing

I love to see her run her beautiful hands through people's hair...I wish it was me with her growing hands through my locs lol!! Great video Sis!!

I took your advice and started to used the 1/2 and 1/2 mixture of the rose water and Vit.E oil and in this winter season, I can definitely feel the difference in the movement of my locs. I'm on 8 months in on my journey and they do feel better. The reg water was making them stiffer and the new combination is keeping them light and smelling good. Continue spreading that knowledge Sis!

you can tell that she s very proud of the result of that hansome locks... GOOD JOB and well done DANTE

I can' say enough about your channel and the positivity you have when dealing with clients. Whether they have healthy locs or damaged ones, you keep it 100 and you keep it positive. Thanks love

He reminds me so much of Jim Jones. I love the honest advice. Subscribed!

I know you don't promote "techniques" but can you make a video showing how you retwist the hair and what's your process depending on the how the locs are forming? I really would like to know what you would actually do and your thoughts behind that. Thanks! God Bless!😇

He looks like Jim Jones lol soo cute

He is very, very handsome. And his locs are absolutely beautiful. Wow.

I am wearing braids atm and although I don't plan to have locs, the information you give is invaluable for anyone growing hair. It has aided me in growing my loose hair long. All I use is castor oil and people think it's a joke, but it doesn't take much to get hair to grow. Keep up the amazing work!

Your hair tells a story. I ❤ that!

Love the videos. Thank you for sharing. Your vitamin E and Rose Water spray have helped my starter locs flourish. Thank you!

New subbie here. 2 weeks into my two strand to locs journey. So blessed to have found your page💜

I did shape up on my head and really messed up my front row. I'm currently using Jamaican black castor oil to hopefully fix that problem. Now I didn't know that tap water messes up my hair too. I'm seriously going to throw away all those shampoos, conditioners, leave in conditioner sprays and other crap I put in my hair and just go straight organic with the oils you mentioned in your other videos.

His LOCS THOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! #gorgeous

How much is half makes me laugh everytime. Thank you, this was fun and informative.

Hello Yannie, I'm coming up on week 1 of my locs. The information you shared is amazing and simple. I can't wait to use the techniques mentioned...

Thank you for posting this cuz my hair grows away from my locs. And i was scared went to the dermatologist to make sure im not loosing my hair. And she said im healthy nothing wrong. This was really informative.

I'm looking at this guy's lol thickness and I'm re thinking restarting mines before they lock

Yannie it's so refreshing to come across your vlogs.. You're a tremendous blessing educating me the loc journey

Loving your videos! So informative...I've been loc'd 11 years but I am learning so much on how to maintain my 5 y/o daughter's locs which are 11 months young.

You're amazing. I'm glad I found you. I just started my locs this year January

Love your videos sister queen. They are always so informative. Blessings.

This video had me DWL but very informative as usual. West Indians keep it real 'these women asking me foolishness'😂😂😂

I can relate to the disrespectful new growth!! Beautiful work, and such honesty. Please keep making videos!!!

I wish I would've looked at this video before I cut my ends. My ends was straight because of medication so I recently cut it and I miss my ends. Anyway thank you for the information. My hair grows amazingly fast and I don't do much of anything too it.

Hi Yannie. You asked Dante if he was Dominican, and then said, yeah, he’s Dominican. He has soft hair. Almost like saying that the reason he has soft hair is because he’s Dominican. Just wanted to let you know that many Dominicans have very kinky hair and are black. Same holds true for Puerto Ricans and Cubans.

Hi Yannie, I love the success you have with your clients. would like to try locs but my hair is thin with thin balding edges. much success to you.

I have cut the tips of some of my locs that were breaking off because when I first started locking over fifteen years ago I dyed my hair. I didn't want them to break off inside on the floor or worst in the street. I kept them

Thank you soo much, I had locs for six years than became a loose natural for seven...I just did my final two strand twist on Saturday which I am locking up....this time thanks to you my hair will be healthier.....I'm not putting nothing in my hair and will retwist as my hair tells me but a minimum of eight weeks depending on how my hair grows......I dont remember because I used to twist every three weeks because I thought I had too. Thank you very much for all you do, it is really appreciated.

I just found you on here but im very glad I did. I love your videos there so informative. I just started my locs 2months ago. and all I ise is natural oil and aloe Vera gel to retwist my new growth. but im still Learning abd your videos help. I just wanna ask if you could make more video for new locs. please.

Love watching your videos... I learn something new everyday, and I'm now doing my own hair, so video like these are soo helpful... thanks again👌

Yannie you have very pretty hands.

This lady makes so much sense it’s really a logical conclusion if you put abcd in your hair locked or not,and then over time you will have a build up of abcd.But if u put a in your hair and keep it clean then it’s impossible for you to have any build up for u didn’t put anything in it to build anything up.If u use only one product all the time and have patients it will not have build up.What u could do is try a natural ingredient like aloe, or rose water , vitamin e. Try one be consistent for 6 months then switch. Don’t be a fool and not wash your hair , it’s an extension of u and will stink if not washed just like your body will stink if not washed.

white girl with locs. love your videos xx

I truly love watching ur videos

OK OK no method your only teaching healthy, now I don't know how to get my locs done now being though I will no longer allow a comb near my locks, ooh my goodness I'll leave my ends alone too I'm so happy I've found you thank you thank you for sharing your knowledge

His skin is beautiful, too.

Those nailssss tho.... Beautifullllll nails, I can't stop looking at them... Oh yeh and great video too lol :)

Hey Yannie, I love your videos... I would want to see your videos on how to care loc extensions, seeing that some persons prefers going that route, while growing their own beautiful locs out...

Hi Yannie, I am looking forward to your video on how to wash locs as this is definitely an area I am struggling with :)

I love and appreciate your videos they are very informative plus keeps things simple thanks hun bless

Thank you Yannie. Wow, this taught me alot. I'm 1 year and 10 and a half months in.

Your videos are really helpful and informative, thanks for making them. 😁

Hair goals for my son!

I believe I have the same texture hair as the male model! Really soft roots so I interlock twice or 3 times the most s year! My new growth is all over the place! I love all of your advice, really helpful!

Genius! Makes so much sense now. Thank you.

You are very knowledgeable of what your doing...I like what you are saying Thank You.

Dante is on fleek!!!

He's so handsome!

@Yannie ...Im starting off my dreadlock journey.I am malato and have between a 4a & 4b hair type with soft texture.I have been growing my hair for 3 months or so.I started with 360 waves.I stopped brushing and combing for the entire time.I was washing conditioning hydrating my hair daily if not every other day.this past Friday I decided to try to get my hair to begin to "bud".Im going to go the Freedom Lock/Free form route.I really want to commit to the Organic Free Form locks. Enough digression tho...I put tree oil, coconut oil, and vitamin E in my hair friday night and slept with a shower cap on my head.all saturday I wore nothing on my head.Saturday night I rinsed my hair with acv/baking soda/lemon and water.let air dry then slept with satin bonnet on head.Yesterday didint wear anything on my head.@ night i sprayed with a little sea salt and water.let soak in hair for 20 minutes.I then put a panty hose on my head . I rinsed the salt out with lemon juice .I then let that soak for 5 minutes and rinsed with hot water.Towel dried afterward.then let hair air dry.before bed put on my satin bonnet.I work at a Iron foundry that used the no bake method,so sand is every where.I wore a satin head stocking on my head at work all day.When I got home I sprayed my hair with a light coat of my sea salt mixture I made and used previously.let soak 20 minutes.put stocking on hair.rinsed with lemon juice.then clean water.letting air dry.So after that all said Lol, I was wanting your knowledgeable input on what Im doing correct and incorrect?What should I be doing to get my hair to "bud" the natural way? Your time and knowledge and advised is greatly appreciated

He has gorgeous locs🙌🏾😍

Awesome video! Much knowledge !!!

She said he can go to Shanayna to get your ends cut. I love the idea of our hair telling a story.

Thank you so much for this video! I noticed recently that a few of my locs are starting to thin out since I haven't retwisted my hair since December (I have no urge to do anything to it). I'm realizing now that it may most likely be because all of my new growth is all over the place and not growing with my locs. I was here thinking I'll end up with a bunch of "double headed dragons" or bald spots and was feeling a way about it

You're awesome, Yannie.

This was cool and I can’t wait until my locs get to a year.

Very informative and he is super handsome.

Do you accept new clients? I would love to visit with you. My hair grows away from my locs so I have frolocs often. Past couple months a took a break from retwist and embraced my new growth. I felt so beautiful too. I had them combined sometime ago so that I can have thick locs. So happy.

I am from Trinidad very good information keep up the good work

hahaha!!! Cutting the ends for you is like asking you to eat pork!!! lmao!!!

One day I'm going to visit you, Yonni! Great video! But 3 months....wow....I think I'd probably have a hard time with that one, although I don't doubt WHAT you wash your locs with is the biggest issue. I'm still struggling to figure out what's right for me (just about a month shy of my first year)

very handsome guy :)

His locs are amazing!

when speaking of shape ups, are you meaning when guys get their hair lined up?

Please do a video on washing healthy locs ❤

Miss Yannie! I am so glad I found your page. I started my journey sept 15th of this year. I admit I started with Jamaican mango and lime creme but after watching this video I will not use it anymore. I don't believe I have build up but I have seen flaking in my scalp this time around. I know it's going to be a bitch to get out, do you have any tips for me? I also plan to make this my last wash for a few months and only use coconut oil for my retwisting. I was thinking of mixing a bit of castor oil with it. can I have your thoughts on that also? Good idea or bad idea? Thank you in advance. I really hope to hear from you.

Love your tutorials, Yannie. I'm going into 7 years with my locs. They are about waist-length at this point. I am wondering if you will be doing any tutorials for long-length locs? I am running out of styles to do. My signature look is a bun of some sort. Also, I have noticed that as my locs have gotten longer, it is really hard to curl them. I would never use heat on them, only rollers or twists, or bantu knot curls. Is there something that I could do to ensure a better curl? Many thanks to you.

hi I just saw ur show and am really impressed I just started growing locks I would like to know when should I wash it and what can I apply on the scalp

She talks about the rose water mixture at 7:05

🤣🤣🤣A baldheaded rasta🤣🤣🤣Thank you so much for your knowledgeable videos, I am seriously considering getting locs. I really wish you were closer to California I would drive to you!!!

Wow. I'm a "hands girl" and I love a beautiful nail. Yours are shaped beautifully and the color you have here is so appealing. Are these your natural nails? If so, can you make a video on your care of them?

His locks are beautiful.

I was wondering if spring water would work as well

Hi, I wanted to ask if it is okay if I use vitamin E oil from capsules? I live your videos, thanks to my daughter!!! She was so excited to show me your video!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us to help us have healthy crowns! Much love!

Hi just turned 60 years old and have decided to loc my hair. Ive been natural for 8 years but Ive flat ironed my hair so I know it has heat damage. I started my locs in July of this year 2018 with two stran twist and was rodding the ends after cutting it to shoulder length. My hair is frizzy will not stay twist . What can I do? Please

I love your personality. You have a new subby.

TIP FOR "FIXING" THE ENDS OF UR LOCS: Use a crochet needle to pull the stray hairs on ur ends back into the shaft to make the ends more rounded. ; )

I want you to do my dread locks !!

his hair is amazing

My rose water says it's 'triple strength'. Should I dilute it first, before using it half and half? Or will it be fine as it is?

Glad i found your channel! Got a new subscriber!

Do you spray the vitamin e oil and rose water on the love itself or the scalp?

Wow nice locs!! I wish I could go that long without popping my locs, after this I’m sure my new growth doesn’t grow into my locs 🙄

too late for me..i already used grease to keep mine moisturized but i've only had mines for a month

I am from Dominica as well

why shape up locs? what is the point?

hi yannie I'm a new subscriber loc'd for 6 years I wanted to know how do u feel about dying locs?

How do you know how your hair grows...

Love your vids and accent. Are those your natural nails or are they sculpted? Either way they are gorgeous!

Hi Yannie, I hear you say you get your rose water from amazon? What brands do you recommend? Thank u!

Thank you for that truth about people cutting their locs cutting a part of their history. This was the significance of Samson and Delilah in the Bible. He had never in his life cut his hair, the source of his supernatural strength. When he allowed his poor choice of a mate to steal his secret, she cut his hair (his history from birth), which allowed him to be captured, blinded, enslaved and ultimately, killed.

Awesome video!

Thank you for sharing your philosophies! I'm starting the locking process. I have not put any products in my hair since I started (1.5 months) but I do wash 1 time/ week with a residue free shampoo. So far it seems to be going well. Would you advise me to stop washing? I am biracial of European/African ancestry with very soft hair that is prone to getting oily if not washed....

Wow!!!!nice locs bro
