STOP PUTTING PRODUCTS IN YOUR LOCS!!! PT 2 

I am so glad she found someone with wisdom to fix this issue.

This video wasn't created for people to judge the client. Stop. Keep the negative and "funny" comments to yourself. This was meant to educate people. Who cares if she let 30 years pass before coming to this hair doctor?!? You don't know people's situation. My sisters hair became very damaged. Why? She neglected it due to depression. Shit happens. I don't know this clients situation and don't care to comment about it. Thanks for the video and sharing the information. I'm going to begin growing locs. This will help.

I am only 7 months loc’d, but I have noticed the changes in my hair with me not retwisting every month. My hair is getting thicker! I think it’s hard for some black people to understand that our hair doesn’t need all of that! Our ancestors were not using all of the crap that we are using in our hair today, and their hair was LONG. I only use oils and water in my hair.

Been hiding this for 4 years, shame, shame RU-vid suggestions.

I almost cried when I saw her hair after the loc bath. Her locs are BEAUTIFUL, and I can't wait to see her hair grow back in the front!!!

Wow, it LITERALLY looks like it was brought back to life!!!! Absolutely fascinating.

Can we get an update on her?

when i tell you my mouth dropped open when i saw the colour of her hair change after you treated her it. what amazing work!

I seriously respect the young woman's bravery and vulnerability for allowing you to document this.Im sure it was emotionally hard for her to do this,it's like standing naked in a room full of strangers.Respect from a fellow locksmith @duoflowerchild on instagram.

can you do a update on her please ? I really wanna see how she is now

Ms. Yannie you are a true queen. The way you kept your clients dignity and built her up despite her disposition, shows you are a class act. Her whole countenance changed after she seen the positive end result. You're very informative yet kind in your teaching of locs. I also say shame on these product companies and RU-vid tutorial people who profit off of selling products people really don't need to do and maintain locs. Blessings to you.

Kinky, curly hair textures have a matte finish. Such hair does not have the “shine” associated with straighter hair textures. Most people with kinky curly textures seem obsessed with trying to get their hair “shiny.” They also seem to want it to lay down and be smoother. I saw Diana Ross’ daughter, Traci Ross talking about her hair products. She said “embrace the frizz.” SHE IS RIGHT. Those with kinky curly textures must eventually accept their own natural hair and see it as beautiful. The Scriptures state that Christ had hair like wool. (Revelation 1:14) We wouldn’t think that wool should be straight and shiny. Or that Christ needed the right hairdresser and products. No !!! We want wool to be soft and fuzzy. Same is true of cotton. Silk we expect to be shiny and smooth. Different textures, right? Stop letting other cultures and advertising dictate what your hair should look like. Kinky curly hair has its own appearance which is just fine. Work with that texture and stop being vulnerable to makers of products trying to seduce you into an “acceptable” look. Otherwise your hair will fall out. Or you’ll want to cut it off or cover it with wigs/weaves out of despair.

What a beautiful natural hair color! Now that all the buildup is gone it can finally be shown in all its glory. I'm so happy for your client. I could just feel the happiness and relief *radiating* off her at the end. Her edges are definitely on their way as well. Good for her!

Gonna research the shit out of this channel now. People don't know their shit but I have a feeling this lady's legit as fuck.

People need to understand that RU-vid is not cosmetology school! That is years and years of so much build up from not properly cleaning her locs! Clarify clarify clarify!

I could cry... God bless YOU Lady ... I don't use ANY products in my hair.. Locs don't need it!

Thank you for educating the Loc Community. You did an amazing job on this young lady's hair. You have shown me the way... NO MORE PRODUCTS IN MY HAIR...EVER!

Hello everyone. Would like to take a minute to say thank you for the support and all the positive feedback I'm truly honored and humbled. Hotep

Who is still watching in 2020 during this quarantine?

Does anyone else love the locologist's voice?

Wow the difference even in the color is astounding. This is amazing.

I’m in tears! It’s a whole other color!!!

I feel like you all are forgetting that a lot of us growing up went to hair dressers (the experts) on a regular basis. We went and our hair fell out time after time. The natural hair movement in part started before social media got big when we got sick of being told how to care for our hair and it not working. So we had a natural distrust of the experts telling us what to do because they hadn’t done right by us while still taking our money. So then social media came around and while yeah... some influencers are recklessly telling people to try this and that but others are actual licensed stylists. It’s ziti easy to look at the damage on her hair and judge what she should or shouldn’t have done. But had you been with her you probably would have told her to try different products or stylists too and a lot depends on your income... what you can afford and how much else is going on in your life. The natural hair movement promises ease and freedom but it hasn’t been that way for everyone.

she literally brought her locks back to life just amazing ❤️

Please please pleeeeease do more videos like this and if possible please do a update on these clients. Thank you yannie!!

I keep telling my friends this who are new to locs. I only use shampoo and olive oil on my scalp and leave my locs alone. I don't use conditioner either. When I retwist I only use water. I've been loc'd for 4 years now. When I need a deep clean (2 times a yr) I use a apple cider shampoo and boil some water to penetrate the locs. Just don't over do it with the styles, washing and retwists.

Definitely would love to see an update somewhere of her! I could only imagine how much her hair has grown. The ending was beautiful so I'm sure they look amazing today.

The "after" is just beautiful. You can tell how much lighter (in weight) her hair is now. Wow, what a difference. Thank goodness she found help before cutting it off.

Omg there was so many diffrent products in this ladys hair that her hair even looked a different color! Watching these this is so enlightening! Beautiful and makeing these paople not only happy! But looking good & feeling good so awesome! By the way your really the queen! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Her hair was a totally different color! Wow!!!

I don’t even have dreads but this makes rethink using products in my hair.

Can we see another follow up on this client? This was so satisfying and educational. Thank you.

She owe you $3,000 😂 You did an amazing job.

This woman is the truth after seeing this video there's no way I could go back to using products in my hair

Have you posted an update on this client? I would love to see her hair today.

The way you said, “straighten your neck” reminded me of my mom. I had to rewind. Amazing work, you are a blessing.

Wow the fact that she can look at her hair and tell when she stopped using product she is extremely knowledgeable about her craft I ❤️ it

This stylist did a professional caring job.

Her scalp can breathe now! I hope her edges come back 🥰🙏

Excellent video queen! Thank you for sharing knowledge with us!

I have locs for 12 years. I put leave in conditioner in my hair. It's still soft and healthy. I do wash my locs once a week.

Please update about her edges. Inquiring minds want to know Thanks

My mother has beautiful locs she's almost 60, she does not put anything on them and they are so healthy looking. I'm starting my locs journey this year because of her.

I only use Jojo oil. I have done so for the past 10 years. I wash her every 3 months with natural products. Do not complicate a natural process - Well said.

I would image if she were to cut her locs to shoulder length, it would take off weight or decrease the pulling down effect, and maybe stop the traction baldness from progressing

I completely agree with you Yannie, all these beauty guru's will turn anyone into a product junkie so quick!

Wow. Your hands are blessed!!! I just started my loc journey after 8 years of being a loose natural. I love my locs so far and I want to take care of them the right way!! Thank you for teaching me. May God touch her scalp and bring forth life.

I just got started locs, I am learning alot with this video... i wont be putting things in my locs before or after my hair starts to loc... thank you so very much Yanni!!! I'll just trust the process

I'm so happy that I'm broke af so I can't buy any of that stuff haha

Wow!!!! Her really hair color is blonde! 😮 all the buildup has turned it black. Great job!!!

This was 4 years ago it’s really nice. Where is the update? Please.

Wowwww her hair looks like a brand new set of locs!!! 😮😮

People! u do not I repeat do not need to get retwists every two weeks. It thins the hair. I jus started my loc journey but that is one of the first things I learned. I want healthy full locs not thin noodles on my head. Water is your Bestfriend and all of those loc gels and beeswax is bullshit. Water water water, and a good shampoo 😉

Amazing... You have healing hands. Can see the sister was overwhelmed with joy and confidence i would of been too. Looking forward to an update.

Wish to see an update on her progress

I really want her to do my hair one day i love how she respect her clients what a miracle worker

Is there an update I really wanna see how her hair is doing?

bruh the dreadlock community is rediscovering this video bc of quarantine lmao

Thank God you found eachother! 🙏🏾 bless her and her journey & your gifted self as Well. Magical!

I’m so glad I watched these videos before loc’ing my hair. Thank you!! In the beginning, I would only shampoo and put light oils with rosewater on my locs very sparingly. But now I just shampoo and that’s it. Haven’t put oils on my locs for over 2 years now and they are healthier than ever.

that is the prettiest nude nails I've ever seen . so seamless . I struggle to find the perfect nude . I'm more of a medium/dark bronze skin type . do I match it to my skin color or the palm side ? lol way off topic I know 😂

I'm glad I found this page🙆🏽‍♀️ God I need to learn a lot... I suddenly feel nervous about mine😢

I have never heard about putting products in locs honestly.. you're supposed to treat your scalp rather than the locs themselves. A light oil after washing them would keep them shiny and smooth and it washes out nicely.

You are correct! We sell anything to each other with no regard. Very little education etc. Whatever makes money is what we care about.

I just fell in love with you and your craft. I was ready to cry for this Queen in the beginning of this video. I was thinking she would just have to cut it off. You are truly gifted. It always touches me to see stylist or hair care providers who truly care about the health of their clients' hair. I hope you are also able to aid this Queen in growing back the hair she has lost to traction alopecia. You are truly a blessing.

"Yannie,, you are such a "Blessing to people.

I'm glad you were able to save her hair, the change was dramatic and her natural golden hue is stunning

Her hair came out beautifully!!

I love how you brought those locs back to life. I am looking forward to an update video.

The best hairstylists tell you the truth. Before I had locs I remember my stylist fussing at me about my dead ends and showing me the breakage and evenness. This type of care is what we need. Thanks for telling the truth about product usage. I needed to be affirmed by a healthy loctician that I don't need all that mess.

Queen Yannie... Did her hair grow back? I would love to see her update video!!

The before and after is amazing.

I don't have locs but I love watching your work and passion Yannie

you know a trini when they say "bend yuh head" thanks for your videos !

You and all who help really are amazing at what you do !!! So glad you online teaching need more people like you to educate on things insted of trying to sell products much love to you ! ❤

I am a newly loc'd lady. I do use leave in conditioner. But, I wash frequently. People do get locs and let go. They use product after product and then wash monthly, IF THAT! Makes no sense to me. Then, go to a salon to get, "snatched". Unfortunately, that's in a literal sense. They get their edges pulled out. I am happy you were able to help this young lady. I can hear her gratitude! This message is a response to Yanni . This is a very brave young lady. I respect her and feel her pain. I do not want to disrespect anyone .

I know it sounds strange but dawn dishwashing liquid works amazingly for this. I had a similar problem personally and I used dawn because that is what is used to clean animals after oil spills. And their skin is much more sensitive than humans. Now don't do this everyday, but it works very well. And you do beautiful work. Such caring and healing hands.

thank you so much Yannie for this information. I have recently started my loc journey and you have given me so much information. I am so thankful that I found your channel so early in my journey. Please continue your inspirational and informative videos.

This is phenomenal! My jaw literally dropped when I saw the results of the hard work and effort you put into this!

I've stopped putting any priduct in my hair some time ago. I use oil only to moisturize before a retwist and pin down to hold. Also got away from those tight to the root twists. My hair has grown more and is healthier than it was when I was using products in the start of my journey.

daaaam poor girl destroyed her hairline

Ty fr restoring her beautiful locs man.. you deserve your flowers

I love how educational and passionate you are about healthy hair and locs. I am a loose natural who has been researching and considering starting my loc journey. Your videos are so enlightening. And the end results in this video are AMAZING!!

You are a genius! Respect Loc Queen. Your client's locs are rejuvenated. Beautiful!

Just found your videos, and I can't stop watching. Yannie you are a loc genius....wow

Is there an update on this client?

Wow what a transformation !!! Her hair is so beautiful and now is even starting to come back a little since you got the buildup out. You are an amazing woman!!!

You’re heaven sent thank you for the job you do and the knowledge you provide. Much Blessings Queen.

Most High I pray healing over this sista hair. Queen Yannie may The Most High continue to work through your hands. The color if her hair is gorgeous like it was kissed by the sun 🌞.

WOWOWOWOWOW her hair is beautiful! such a nice color that's the kind of color that only comes from sun-bleaching with time oh my god so pretty

You hit it right on the head. Keep up with your locs is so simple but people over complicate it ...

She was so sweet and affectionate with this Queen! 🙏🏾 👑

Can you do 2019 update on her please? 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

You have performed a miracle. Her crown is beautiful!

I am so grateful thatI came across your channel. I love how she didn't have to cut her beautiful hair and that she still have vibrant follicles in the alopecia areas.God bless you!

I have no idea how I got here, but Yannie you did something amazing for this person. That surely brought back a lot of confidence to this person! Her hair looks great!

It must feel light as a feather. I believe in speaking things into existence. We must be careful of our thoughts and words. Myself included.

You are truly a blessing. This young lady locs are beautiful. You worked a Miracle on her hair thank Goodness you have the knowledge and proper product to remove all that product build up. I'm thinking about starting my loc journey. So watching your videos are helping me learn about how to treat my locs once I get them. I'm in Los Angeles California and I have a long time friend who does locs. But I want to learn from you what to do and what not to do. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

So glad you were able to help her! Absolutely beautiful!! 💕

I've been growing my locs for over 20 years now and in just two videos and reading your website I gained so much knowledge! I started using black gel and then I heard that it breaks your hair (which it did). I was told that it was the alchohol so I started using gel without. I now have alopecia on the top of my head and edges. When I was a beauty culture student many moons ago, one of my teachers told me that if your scalp is as smooth as a baby's behind, the hair will not grow back. I am currently using a oil based natural product and within weeks I am seeing peach fuzz! I have been praying about my hair growing but not being proactive in the process. I wash my body with Castile liquid pepmint soap and now I will wash my hair with it. I will also add lemon dishwashing soap to my regimen. Thank you!! I also stopped oiling my scalp years ago when somehow the "Black" community was told to stop "greasing" our scalp because it block our pores.😏 I hope to become your client one day!!
