@numberpurple

Hey Hey! I appreciate the love and support! Uou are a little ahead of me! And thank you, I have learned more patience throughout my loc journey. 💜 It has tested me many times 😆. How are you liking your locs so far?!

Thank you for the love! I'm sorry I didn't explain it that well in this video. This was more just me showing me doing it. I explained it in the beginning of the video below. I proud of you for getting it down! I hope this helps, let me know! 💜 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QpGSKGk1Mao.html

Thank you Emily! 🥰 I had it speed up twice as fast but I’m getting faster 😆. Pro status otw lol

I love my loc sisters 💕 I appreciate you coming on this journey with me and letting me be a part of yours. Since you started with comb coils, has your hair mostly locked? I see most people with comb coils locs mature quickly! And your last sentence took me out! 😂 It is very time consuming but worth it once it's over. I want to try to a retwist one day, Just dont want to waste my time and end up needing a retie lol

Thank you so much much for the love and support! I think there is nothing wrong with going the route you are going as far as you loc maintenance. I think it is great that you were honest with yourself and your situation and are doing what is best for your hair long term. You can always change your mind later too, but if not that's perfectly fine. Many people I speak to have set unrealistic expectations and find themselves disappointed or frustrated with the upkeep. Having an achievable plan is key to success! I am wishing you a head full of beautiful locs as your journey continues on! Sending Love your way! 💜💜💜💜

Thank you! 🥰 I appreciate the love and support! 💜 They are sure maturing, I’m excited!

Thank you! I really appreciate the love and support 💜 I personally struggle with my edges from alopecia so it truly lifts my spirits that you think they still look nice. They used to be GONE. Your length will gef there in due time and im sure it lools beautiful. We just gotta see it through 💜

Thank you so!!!! I appreciate the love and support! 💕

😂😂😂 I truly understand!

Thank you so much! I am truly flattered and appreciative of your support! 💜 You can do it, just gotta give it a try, I believe in you.

@@SocialSymone awww Thanks Queen, for the encouraging & motivation

Anytime, I am glad to help! 💜💜💜

Thank you! I really appreciate the love and support 💜

Hey nice to have you here and thank you so much for your kind words and I'm glad that I could help! I started my microlocs with two strand twist all by myself. It took me about three days to complete. I have heard of people starting them with sponges. I am assuming you have shorter hair if your friend was recommending that. I put the very beginning of my Microloc journey below if you want to check out what it look like and how I installed them. My locs look nothing like they do now lol. Day One Installation: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qda4y-qhKgo.html Completed installation: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hVBWEantCPY.html

You are right about that! Putting on something to watch also helps the time fly by luckily! 💜

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words 💕 I just try to do a good estimate and some may be looser than others because of that. I just try to make sure I end south to avoid the holes. Thank you for the well wishes, I am feeling so much better now. Theraflu has been a blessing for me! I hope this helps!!! I appreciate you for watching and supprting my journey. 💕💕💕💗💗💗

@NumberPurple Glad to hear you're feeling better and thanks a bunch for the reply. I'll enjoy the rest of this week and the next as a loose natural. Then the adventure begins 💃🏽 Love your videos. They've been an inspiration. Keep up the good work. Peace & Blessings ✌🏾🙏🏾🙃

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad my videos have been inspiring to you. Did you get your locs?!. Wishing you peace, blessings, and lots of joy on your journey. Keep shining! ✨💜

Thank you! I appreciate the love and support. Just curious, what is stopping you from trying? 💕

Lol In a country town in Louisiana 😂 Moving soon and I can’t wait 😆. You should go for it though for sure if you are ready! I love the freedom I have now. I think may may like that freedom too. 💕

Happy Early Bday! 💜 Have you decided on the type of interlocking method you'd like to do?

Greetings and welcome! I surprisingly took less lol. I still thought I would've been faster than my final time though 💕 But still proud of myself! Im sorry you experienced holes in your locs but glad you know how to fix them. When I'm tried of lose track of my rotations sometimes 😁 I try to break it up to avoid it but we are only human so I still do it sometimes. I didn't have any isues with the two point as far as doing it. I just felt it didnt secure my hair at the root as good and after I washed my hair the retie was not as right as now doing the 3 point rotation.

thank you!

Yes!!! I was shocked too!!! Thank you for watching till the end, You're a real one 💕💕💕 Sending peace and love your way sis!

Thank you for your kind words! I appreciate your love and support 💕 Your question is valid and I can understand your perspective. The "three point rotation" Is the patterns and directions I use to interlock the hair. For example, I do West, North, West, South. There are 3 different points of entry. The amount of times you repeat the patterns varies from person to person base off new growth. The reason I did it several times is to interlock that new growth but the rotation stays the same. I used to do a 2 point rotation at first but later switch to a 3. I hope I was able to explain this well. It can be confusing, I know it was to me at first 😆 I also will link a 3 point rotation video I did below if you'd like a visual. 💕 Peace and love to you! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GxhfPLRNHLY.html This one Is a two point rotation video if you'd like to see an example of that one as well 💜ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-esKv-DoU4k4.html

Nothing wrong with that. Some people I’ve seen without out clean parts have some of the most beautiful Locs I’ve seen! I think a gel is great for getting the hold. I tried with just water but unfortunately my fly aways didn’t stay in place like I wanted. It works well for some people though. 💕

I really appreciate the love! It about took me out that time lol. It's been getting easier to do though!

Awww thank you so much! Happy New Years to you! 💕

Thank you!💕💕💕

I try to make sure that I in all of my rotations going south. If I can't get a full rotation and I just leave it because there is times where I might be able to get half of the rotation in but then I will probably forget that I only did half and then I end up creating a hole in my locs. I also do a three point rotation which kind of makes it in my opinion a little bit harder for me to put holes in my locks then when I used to do a two. Another way to tell is just by looking at where your hair naturally splits in the middle usually if you see that why shape that will let you know which way you ended last I hope this made sense and helps. 💜

@@SocialSymone thank you!!🥰

Hello 💜 And Thank you for watching, I have had my locs for almost 9 months now and I mist my locs everyday and Rarely oily my scalp.

I just wrap it in before I interlock it. They are frizzy too I wont lie but I like it. It just comes with it. I hope this helps.

Greetings, I have in the mid 200s. I forget the exact number but i counted then in this video if youd like the exact number 💕 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I21nY9KrWMo.html hope this helps!

I wanted the base to be more secure because I felt the reties were slippin alot more. When I switched that problem went away and I researched how they may mature with the 3 point and I thought it was a better fit for me. 💜

Greetings, This is the link to my flaxseed gel video. Hope this helps! 💜ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bWfjX2G2Q5Y.html

Nice to have you here and yes I just take the fly aways and make to to wrap them into the loc before I interlock my hair. I think it's great that you want to try it out yourself also, I'm all for saving money! The rotation type may change how your locs end up forming overtime. Is there a specific reason you are thinking to try out a 2 point rotation? For me I like the way the 3 point rotation gives a tighter loc. I hope this helps. 💜

@@SocialSymone Hi! I am also new to this journey (almost 4 months in) my lady also charges $200, im so close to trying it myself. I know you wrap the loose hair around the loc but how does it stay? I’ve tried just to see what happens and the hair just goes back to how it was; just loose and all over the place. Is it the gel you’re using keeping it in place? Thank you!

@@jordanodom5818 hey and congratulations to you on starting your loc journey! It's funny you were talking about the lady charging you 200 bucks because I have a video coming out today where I was saying that's about how much I was going to get charged to if I found someone lol. To answer your question, you are correct, before I start interlocking a lock I like to secure the loose hairs that are around the base or near my scalp first. After I do that, I interlock the loc. You may notice that after you do this that you may have some of the hairs come loose that you just wrapped around the lock before interlocking. I go back in a second time after the retie to secure the hairs that came loose, as a result of the friction of retieing the loc. The gel I'm using absolutely helps hold the loose hairs in place. It is my homemade flax seed gel. A lot of people on their loc journey also use certain loc gels however, I like to personally make my things homemade. Additionally a lot of people just use water and no gels. it really depends on your personal preference. Hope this was helpful and answered your questions. I will link my flaxseed gel video in case you'd like to take a look at it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bWfjX2G2Q5Y.html 💜

@@SocialSymone thank you soooo much! I am loving this journey; never felt more beautiful!!!! I did months of research of them before getting them installed so I knew eventually I’d be doing my own reties. I got lazy and have already paid $200+ three times on top of the install. I’m looking at $1500 so far in total. I literally cannot afford to keep doing it 😩 but I would never take my Locs out so I don’t have a choice but to stop being lazy! I just subscribed to your channel! ♥️ thanks again!

@@jordanodom5818 makes me so happy to hear you say that you have never felt more beautiful thing now. I have a similar feeling with my locs. I feel you on getting lazy too. Many times where I knew I had to do my retie and thought about getting a Loctician, but every time I thought about how much I'd have to pay, I changed my mind😆 thank you for subscribing I appreciate all the love and support! I would love to know how your next retie goes, I believe in you! 💜

it usually takes me shout 4 days but I break it up around my other tasks for that day 💜

Greetings, This is the link to the tool I use. I hope this helps! amzn.to/3N3OZMZ 💜

I Love my loc sisters 💕 I appreciate you coming on this journey with me and letting me be a part of yours. Since you started with comb coils, has your hair mostly locked? I see most people with comb coils locs mature quickly! And your last sentence took me out! 😂 It is very time consuming but worth it once it's over. I want to try to a retwist one day, Just dont want to waste my time and end up needing a retie lol

This is my third loc journey. My first journey lasted more than ten years…I don’t know the reason for this however; this time it’s taking longer to loc. the reason I tried interlocking is because the locs in the top of my head is taking longer to loc so I thought I’d help it along.

@@godzgurl9132 Wow! 10 years is amazing and 3 sets! That is such a unique journey. 😍 And all 3 sets were probably very different I assume. 💕 Sorry the top is not locking like it did previously. I'm sure it will still in due time since it's done before.

I just wrap it in before I interlock it. They are frizzy too I wont lie but I like it. It just comes with it. I hope this helps.
