Great tip! Sometimes add peppermint sometimes I don’t honestly depends on how I feel

Thank you so much 🤍 I have 49 locs

When I was natural I still used the method of wash twice with a clarifying shampoo then twice with a moisturising one, then followed up with a light conditioner. It really helped get my natural hair suuuuper clean and lightweight. Give it a try 🥰

@@undrthedryr thanks

Hope it helps! I’m very minimal when it comes to my locs because I’m really scared of build up, so even filming this I kept thinking I don’t use much but I actually do just light 😂

When I first started my locs journey I was strict and did it every 4-6 weeks, now I’m in my second year I stretch it to 4-8 weeks depending on my mood - if you want a more detailed video on this let me know!

As you should!!! Using conditioner on locs is obviously personal preference but I don’t want to risk any build up in my locs… AT ALL

You're so welcome!

thank you so much! honestly don't stress about thick locs, they will change and develop over time, most of the flat locs i had in the starter phase formed into cylinder locs, and other not so much... plus flat locs give character imo

Thank you - I just retwist tbh, I crochet if needed for maintenance but that’s it

That first year was a real test for me too, you got this though!! Can’t wait to see where I’ll be at in 7 years if I can have enough patience to wait it out 😂

@@undrthedryr You are already two years in, you can do it! After three years they will be awesome and they will grow faster. The first three years are always a test with the shrinkage.

@@The25Sister I really can’t wait to reach 3 years, will most definitely document the journey, best of luck on your journey too 🙂

Thank you 🫶🏾

Thank you!!

Beautiful!

Sorry for the late reply, I use water and mousse, I like to use Nairobi foam or lotta body

Editing that right now so should be up asap 😅

Hang in there, it’s great feeling when you reach it 😊

Can’t control quality of tap water unless you have a water filter - I’m at the point where I don’t have that, so anything within my control that I can change like switching to distilled water I will. Distilled water doesn’t have a lot of the harsh minerals that tap water does

Agree! Can’t wait for more

Thank you so much i appreciate the support 🫶🏾

@@undrthedryr You welcome anytime

This "nosese" is asking for more than the bare minimum. No one is 'screaming' about anything. Sometimes people want to be represented more accurately in a game- why do you have a problem with that? When Tekken 8 came out, did you have an issue with the many customization options? No? What about Soul Calibur's system? No? So why is it black people asking to have something that looks more accurate makes you upset? You literally don't lose anything.

We are not asking for unreasonable things AT ALL. In video games with customizable characters, there is always a plethora of options for straight and wavy hair types. However, when you look to options for 3a-4c hair types there is a VERY limited selection. Let’s take Nintendo Mii’s as an example. There are SO many options for straight and wavy hair, but when looking for 3a-4c options there is the bare minimum of options. This wouldn’t be an issue if the hair style options for all types of hair have the same quantity and they are all very typical hair styles for that texture, but we don’t see that. It seems like there is only about 1 black hair style for every 10 none black hairstyles in these video games.

Dang, if it annoys you that much then there's a lot more behind your feelings than us complaining about video game hairstyles lol.

There’s plenty of white characters with different styles so why not do the same for everyone else?

it's not for representation, it's for diversity and fairness. how come white/fair-skinned characters can have such a variety of hairstyles in video games, but not darker skinned characters? the high top swooped dreads appear in every male black character. the 3c-4c hair appears in every black female character. even the afro appears sometimes, but is misused and does not represent black people in a good way. not only hairstyles, but also religious headwraps/headpieces. when was the last time you saw a hijabi girl/a hijab option in a video game?

Thank youu 💕

Keep going!!!

Thanks so much, I was so nervous to keep it real but no loc journey is perfect all the way throughout

@@undrthedryr your journey is unique because your locs are unique. I watch a lot of these videos because I’m only 2 months into my journey but I can appreciate all the unique beautiful ways that everyone’s hair develops on their journey. You gave me a lot to think about in terms of how to style and manage my hair and whether or not I’ll do color. This was helpful! Thanks so much ❤️🫶🏽

Wishing you a lovely loc journey 🩷
