This is a very beautiful tutorial. I really appreciate you for taking the time to show new comers like myself how to start wicks. This was a joy for me to watch and learn . Thank you so very much!!
I just want to say nice work and thank you for calling the latch hook tool by its proper name. So many people say the crochet hook and I’m like it’s a latch hook to make rugs. We used them in the latch hook rug kits as kids. 😂
Great video. Putting the 3 prong and 2 prong crochet needles together was definitely brilliant and a game changer for doing wicks. Thank you for sharing your talents🎉🙏🏾
I'm so glad it helped!! And thank you so much. I was notified that I got another comment from you but when I clicked on it, it said comment no longer available. I just wanted to let you know I am not ignoring it!
Hi Shondie, amazing technical expertise you've shown here. I'm awaiting an appointment for my locs to be repaired. I'll be showing my locition this video. She'll be very impressed, as I am. Peace, love and best wishes from the UK. 👍🏿❤🤗💚🇬🇩🇬🇧xxx
How long did that take (im working and watched 15 mins of it then went to the end) and how much would it cost? My hair is about that long (maybe 2 or 3 inches longer if not the same) so i was wondering how much and how long it took, was it one day? And did you retwist him first? I mean how fresh after a retwist if at all does it need to be?
Thank you! Short answer: yes it can be done without adding hair. Why? It depends in the loctician. I only add in two instances. When the client requests additional hair to be used or if the hair is chemically overprocessed and/or shredding during the distressing phase.
Seeing the locs is caused by previous interlocking, excessive lint or bleach. I advise all clients who want a “seamless” combination about this before they book. Most wicks that remain seamless through the journey were starter wicks from the beginning, not a loc combination. It’s a process.
@ ok thank you!! I’m getting good at it… but the one that started them… didn’t really do the best job… I have been fluffing them out and crocheting them… they’re looking much better.. I’m still looking for the best product…
Sorry it's been so long I don't remember which exact one it was but I have a locs to wicks playlist that you can check out. I know it's in there somewhere
.6mm I think I have a link to a few items in my Amazon Storefront in the description. You can order every tool and almost every product that I use from that site (I would get a small commission for the referral) ❤️
It’s so amazing to see how everyone has a different technique! I start from the bottom ;up .. and I thought it was was easier for me.. also im left handed but i wick using my right hand ! this was a great video by the way ! I gathered sum great tips from u .. thank u!much Gratitude!🫡🫶🏼

This well detailed. Really appreciate

Thank you for sharing I got all the way to the end of hubbys and didn’t know what to do
Wow amazing work, I wanted to ask is it possible to get the wicks done without adding hair? N why do people add hair ?
Thank you! Short answer: yes it can be done without adding hair.
Why? It depends in the loctician. I only add in two instances. When the client requests additional hair to be used or if the hair is chemically overprocessed and/or shredding during the distressing phase.
@@ShondieLocs thank you, this has been very helpful!!
Should you still be able to see the individual locs..? Or should they be “seamless “
Seeing the locs is caused by previous interlocking, excessive lint or bleach. I advise all clients who want a “seamless” combination about this before they book. Most wicks that remain seamless through the journey were starter wicks from the beginning, not a loc combination. It’s a process.
@ ok thank you!! I’m getting good at it… but the one that started them… didn’t really do the best job… I have been fluffing them out and crocheting them… they’re looking much better.. I’m still looking for the best product…
Very Nice Wick Locks My Brother;Jah God🏆🏆🏆
Thank you so much for such an informative video!! We appreciate you!!!
Thank you for watching!! 😁
Wow! Great work. I appreciate you ❤
Any Flat wick tutorials?
What di you use to take the build up off the hair baking soda and lemon juice I like the way you take your time to wash . watching from Jamaica 🇯🇲
Hi! Thank you for watching! 😁 I'm so happy that you're here. I use Apple cider vinegar (1cup), baking soda (half cup), and the juice from one lemon.
Such a calming video. You gotta have strong fingers homie
Thank you! I wish I did lol
Awesome job how do I go about setting up an appointment?
Call or text the salon and ask for a consultation with me 8173334464, then send over whatever information she asks from you
Jeeez this could take forver to finish? Did you seat ?
I was up and down!! I forgot how long this took but it was more than 10hours
How much did that service cost him?
How many loc did you put in each one?
What do you charge for this with his length?
Hey what is ur asking price for this
When making the section do they have to be equile with the same number of lock in each
No it doesn’t have to be perfect, some of the locs will be bigger/smaller than others too
@@ShondieLocs thank you 💞
My dreads thinning and I'm losing Like half a lock almost every other week smh how much does this cost?
How long did it take you to do this
Can you link the altering parts video??🙏🏽🙏🏽
Sorry it's been so long I don't remember which exact one it was but I have a locs to wicks playlist that you can check out. I know it's in there somewhere
Could human hair be added to thicken the wicks?
Yes but it wouldn’t grow out the same thickness from the root so be careful with that.
If I apply aloe and swim through the beach water will it start looking more realer
I don't know the answer to that
what direction are you taped prongs facing? are they facing each other or away?
They are facing the same direction
Whats the intro beat?
How many did he have in his head .
I think 14 but I’ve done so many since then I really can’t remember
@@ShondieLocs ok thank u I was just trying to figure out how many I wanted .

I was coming through the comments for this question how long does it usually take?

Down
Hey! What did you use to combine the 2 prong and 3 prong needles?
Duck tape :)
How long did this actually take
I don’t remember honestly, I’ve done quite a few since this lol. At least 12 hours for sure though
Great job ❤️❤️
