I did read an article with a chart that stated 150+ locs are considered “micro”. I too installed 200 “bigmicrolocs” on 11/12/22 almost identical to yours in size/ style. (no color just black) I will be palm rolling. I also plan to shy away from using gels and opting for light holding mousse. Your locs look beautiful, you are beautiful and I plan to be here with you, let’s journey together #loctwins #subbed 🎉 Yaaay, you get your re-tie today. Cant wait to see it!!! KeKe J is my loc crush 😅
So glad I came across your video. I am 5 weeks in and my first retie is this Friday. I almost jumped off a ledge because I thought my locs were too big and not enough to be considered micro and looking at other people's vids and pages and comparing. I have 214 and my hair looks similar to yours. I just followed you on IG. Can't wait to see what your hair does!
Omg thank you so much! I haven’t counted my locs yet but I will in a video SOON 🤭 I’m so excited for you loc journey and hope I can be or offer some type of support throughout it ♥️🙌🏾
I have 266 lol I just call them micro locs and a lady at my job with sister locs what like whats that and whats the difference 🤣😭🤦🏾♀️ I was like ma'am idk i just didn't want them that small and i am DIY
You’re locs are beautiful. Micro or not… Mine are on the smaller side as well and I interlock them. I call mine “mini locs” LOL😂. Just practice. It becomes easy with practice. Take your time and focus on the technique and you’ll get it down. I referenced Rebecca Elaine here on YT and learned w/ her videos. I’ve never been to a loctician.
"Mini locs" I love that! But yes, it's a journey and I'm definitely gaining some patience lolol!! But thanks for the support! I've actually learned to retie my hair and have successfully done two reties on myself!! ♥
i swear as a loose natural i HAD to have my edges done but since i locked my hair last year i have only did my edges maybe like 4 times which is so unreal 😂😂
It is microlocs ok, from 150 above is considered microlocs, probably because you have thick hair so they appear a little big. But it is sure not big enough to be considered traditional.
My locs are similar to yours and I’m thinking about taking mines down and making them smaller, but idk because I have a lot of hair and I know I’m not going to want to retie them😩😩
I definitely feel you on that!! 😭😭 how long have you had them?? I sometimes regret not getting them professionally installed but at the same time I really do like how I installed them so 🙃 lolol
