I interlocked my 11 month old two strand twist starter locs last week, Aug 27th. This was my 1st reti with three month's of new growth. It took about six hours to complete. I usually reti around 10 weeks. I was sore the next day but at least I get a break from my locs for a minute LOL!! Happy you arrived in Japan safely.
@@RebekahElaine I completed it faster before this reti. Hurricane Laura was creating chaos outside.Winds reached 65 mph in Northern Louisiana. I kept looking outside during the reti and my electricity was questionable but all is well.
Your locs are pretty! I have accidentally interlocked two locs, but I have always been able to undo it. It takes a minute but it can be done. Yes to the camera showing the back view, tfs.
Thank you! I was going to separate them but I was tired and I noticed the locs were really thin any way. But I’m trying to get better at not doing that!
Glad you made this video. Love your locs. I will be interlocking once I start my locs. How did you start your locs? Looks like you are doing a 4 Point rotation? Do you palm roll to keep your locs looking cylindrical? Thank you. Blessings.
Hi....thank you for the video... videos... I am starting my interest in locs. I am researching...having been really for the past few years. So I'm pretty sure I'm crossing the line. I'm probably going to start them myself. For one... I have bra strap length and know and researched I ll be charged quick a bit bcuz of my length and thickness. But just watching the experience. I like your sizes. I thght about micro... and again I deal enough with my hair. I have had fun with all the natural styles I wld like to do and go... now! 3-4hr realistic every few months compared to 3-4hr detangling every two weeks and sometimes it's even longer for me... but overall thanks!! Love the videos!
Thank you you! I try to prevent it as much as possible. So I don’t typically dry my hair with towels and I don’t lay or blankets that have materials that shed. If I notice lint, I try to pick it out before it gets trapped in my loc.
@RebekahElaine what oil? I'm an athlete so my scalp stays pretty dry what's the most products. Is there a specific oil you can refer me. And are they like essential oils or are they the thick processed oils
@@paulgalloway2323 it was an oil from my business. but I recently closed it down. it was a mix of various natural oils. You could really use castor oil and mix it with something a little thinner like avocado oil.
That second camera yessssss
Yesss I was trying to get all the angles
Loved that second camera though very creative
Thank you ☺️
Ikr..genious
Crushing on your locks OMG 😍

Man oh man. Lol. I’m sure you’ll get faster over time but like you said, now you don’t have to worry about your hair for a while!

Oh man. Well I’m glad you’re ok!
Great vid!!! I have to interlock the back and my edges because I sweat from hott flashes. When I retwist they don't last.yoyr hair is BEAUTIFUL
Thank you so much! I really love interlocking because it last a lot longer that retwist for me too.
I love your locs!!! The size and everything
Thank you 🙏🏽
Your hair is so healthy!

Thank you! I started them with two strand twists. And yes, I do the 4-point rotation.

You’re welcome. Thank so much for watching! I’m glad I can be helpful. I love being loc’d!! If you decide to do it, I think you’ll love it too!
Your hair is beautiful
Thank you so much ☺️
Does doing a 4 point make the locs thicker than 2 point turn?
how long have you been interlocking?? your hair is gorgeous .
Thank you so much! I’ve interlocked since I started my locs back in 2017
You done a great job! How do you deal with lint?

Thank you!
Looks nice
Thanks
Please i have a question for you?
How often do you interlock
Every 2 months
Does the interlocked part expand over time?
@@TedFTW It’s kind of hard to say. My locs are all pretty thin. I have a couple that I combined that’s thick now.
#2K!
Would you say that interlocking makes the hair take longer to grow rather than retwisting?
I don’t think so. The way you manage the new growth doesn’t really affect how much the hair grows.
@@RebekahElaine thank you so much for answering
For sure!
Whats the spray?
It’s just a mix of water and oil.

Love your hair...The health and flexibility...goals
