How To | Micro Loc Extensions Human Hair | Microlocs Installation Tutorial 

💯 It looks waaay better and more comfortable too!

Thank you so much! Your kind words mean allot to me! I appreciate you! 🥰♥️

This is absolutely beautiful. Plz excuse my ignorance but just to be clear , she will not be taking this down ? & the extensions are able to stay in while her hair locs ???

Thank you! No ignorance at all ☺️ all questions welcomed! But yes… her hair will loc with this hair

@@ShardelHaden what’s the price range for this ?

Good luck that’s a long time

How did they turn out? It’s been 10 months and I’m just curious how they turned out.

@@tabbylivvy can I add a photo? I would love to show them. I think they turned out great; however, I will suggest being aware of what type of hair you will use. I didn’t use the type of hair she did but I used the bulk human hair that you actually do locs with and while it turned out cute and as I wanted them. It’s now a year later and as my hair has grown and been washed over and over, some of the hair has slipped out but it’s okay because I plan to remove the hair as my hair grows out.

@@lifeinchrist8061 That’s awesome that you attempted it and was happy with the results. We learn as we grow, so kudos to you for making that decision to try it. Can’t add a picture here. Was thinking you uploaded a video on your channel.

Thanks so much! I’m considering the same thing… sometimes lol

Thank you so much 🫶🏾🥰

Yesss! Thank you so much for your support! 😊

Thank you so much 😀

Thank you 🥰

Thank youuuu♥️♥️

TY😊

Thanks so much !

Thank you so very much! I truly appreciate your kind words! For this install I used about 4 packs of hair and it was 16 inches 😊

Thank youuu!!! Lol girlfriend DO IT!

Thank you! I believe so.. the number across may change according to the width of the section

Hi! Thank you so much! ♥️♥️I truly appreciate your kind words! Yes that makes sense, so that means the hair added was probably a bit to much.. I think to be safe you might want to do it over because you don’t want to cause more weight on your scalp then you have to. That way you can prevent any thinning long-term.

Hey! I will do my best to get a clip of that in my next video

Thank you so much 🥰☺️

Hey! Thank you! Yes its okay to use a slightly curlier texture 🙂

Thank you so much! So I braid a little from the top while adding the hair in. After twisting all the way to the end I interlock the root a few times.

I feed the hair in 😊

Thank you! 😊 For these I braid the hair into the root then twist 😊

Thank you so much for watching! That may mean you need to add a little more hair when you get to that point. You want to make sure the twist is gradually getting smaller, especially after passing you natural hair.

Thank you!

Thank you!! Welcome! ☺️♥️🥰

Thank you so much!

I did not count them at the end. But I used about 4 packs

Thank you ! I believe its mentioned in the beginning of this video.

Thank you ♥️

omg! 😊 Thank you so much!

Thank you! I think the best advantage with not using extensions is there isnt any hair slipping out. Also, extensions take a bit more time to do compared to just using natural hair

Thank you so much! I use Afro kinky texture human hair for this install ♥️

What brand if u don’t mind me asking? Exy hair started to straighten out after a while

Thank you! To the right

Yes! Do it!

So the trick is to make sure you're adding the right amount so that the loc gradually gets thicker just like it would without extension. If you add too much hair to a section that is to weak to handle it, that can cause thinning.

Okay, So I would say the pros are you get immediate fullness and some length. They also give you more options for styling. Cons.. I would say in the beginning some will portal slip out around the perimeter. Other than that I don't think there are any more cons. I think extensions would work great you just need to go to someone knowledgeable so that they aren't adding to much hair which can be stressful to your scalp in the long run.

Thank you 😊

I’m think I would need to crochet the extension to the end for a situation like this

Thank you 🥰🥰

It is dependent upon the length of the clients hair. If it is shorter I braid close to the length of their hair, if it is longer just a few braids then I twist

You would probably have to use really small portions of hair to be sure that the bulking doesn't happen. I wouldn't recommend that method because it will be harder to avoid the bulkiness. Can you share some more of your thoughts on the knotless method? Maybe why that method may not be your first choice?

@@ShardelHaden I was thinking it might be a little harder to have a long lasting install on short hair😭 like an issue with letting the extensions loc because of possible slipping? Thank you for answering🥺❤️

Slippage happens no matter the install technique. It’s normal. You just put it back once it slips. It takes time for you hair to adjust to be in the style ☺️

yes you sure can. its probably located behind the counter.

No question is stupid! ☺️ the extension hair will loc into her hair. My method of installation does not allow for the extension to be taken out. Maintenance is the same just as if there no extensions, interlocking every 4 to 8 weeks 🥰

Thank you! Waldorf MD

Hi! Thank you so much for your comment! So the hair is intended to loc with your hair permanently. So you would not remove the hair at a later date. The key would be to add the correct amount so that the loc gradually widens as you get down to the end. Does that make sense?

@@ShardelHaden Thank you so much it makes perfect sense. My worry is one now the type of extension you use I wonder if I'll get anything closer here cos my hair texture is not thick and fuller. I'll keep checking your tutorials for more information. Once again thank you for your response 😘😘💞💞

Thank you! I beiges it took about 12hrs or so. I may mention it in the video

Cool! So I think twist will be just fine. Maybe braiding the root down some then twisting will help with slippage.

I found the answer lol

😂🥰

Yes it locs with the hair

She answered all these questions, just scroll and you’ll see the answer ❤️

Thank you 🥰🥰 www.manetamedstudio.com

I normally twist it in if I need to add extra length towards the bottom, but I really try to add enough length from the top so that I don’t have to do that at the bottom. This way, I am lessening the chances of slippage.

So naturally, when you have locs it's smaller at the root then it gradually gets thicker. this will be the case for a set of extensions like this. You just want to be careful with the amount of hair you add to each loc. but as your hair locs it will thicken with the extension hair. I hope that makes sense... :)

Thank you so much! Yes the length can be shorter. These extensions are intended to loc with her hair… however as the grow she can trim or cut the ends as she sees fit

Hi, I love your work & have been considering microlocs. I read one loctician saying the extensions eventually come out as the hair grows which sounds weird but you say the human hair extensions starts to loc with your natural hair, that makes more sense.

Exactly!!! Thank you so much 🥰

There’s a couple of places. You can get some on Amazon from the familocs, also the website www.manetamedstudio.com

Twist are going to be more fluffy and not so uniformed. Braids will be very uniform. Similar to sister locs
