Thank you so much!!!
Awesome job, informative too! Thanks for sharing!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching 💕
Finally!! Someone who has my exact hair texture! 🙌🏾 I’m having a consultation on Saturday to start my journey. Subscribed ❤
I can already tell your locs are going to look BOMB during every stage. You’re very good at what you do. Thanks for sharing your journey with us ❤.
Ah, I'm flattered you think so! Thanks so much, it's my pleasure to share
Great video!! I like the colors too!!😍☺️
Thank you so much! 🤗
This is the size I want! I love it and can’t wait
Okay cool! You're well on your way
Thanks so much for sharing ❤I want to start my own locs but it looks easier said than done especially to make them look that good
Yes it might not be super beginner friendly, but it would help to maybe have a friend assist!
Love this video! I started my own locs and I wish I made a video of that process for my TH-cam channel but yelp, here we are almost 3 years later 😅🤣
I’m watching this in the middle of combing out my micro locks. I’m a huge DIYER in definitely doing c parts this time. Great job ❤
Awesome! Thank you for watching! Blessings to you on your new journey ♥️
The “c” part looks the most natural to me.. unfortunately I can only manage it in the front of my head when I DIY. This set you have now is gonna be fire. That blonde patch is cute!
I will be watching along, never had locs but been flirting with the idea for years.. Just a bit scared that they wouldnt look right on me.. But I will try them this year! This already looks really nice with the parting.. Thank you for sharing this
Giiiiiiiiirl, those locs are gorgeous 😍 -- looking forward to following your new journey!!!
I love your channel Queen. New subscriber to your channel. I love your content, you are a great teacher. Im considering starting my loc journey I’ve been a loose natural for 18 years. Im also a lefty as well and do a lot of things right handed and twisting to right is one of them.
You put them back in!!! ❤
I did!!! We’re back and we’re better ❤️
They came out so clean and cute!! I so badly want to color my locs 😩- but I'm trying to wait until I at least hit 1 year and ensure I've developed an excellent loc hydration schedule (like, I'm okay - but I could do better some days). Can't wait to see how you choose to style them!
Thank you! That's good (in my opinion) that you're waiting a while to bleach/color. I only have color because I did it before I decided to start my locs lol I can also do better with hydration some days, but it's okay!
Hey!! So I absolutely love your loc content. I bought your oil and hair butter to use for my starter locs and I was curious on how often I should use the butter to prevent loc buildup. Also I’ll be dying my hair before getting a new set of starter locs (combed my first set out due to length and parting 😅) and I’m curious on what you recommend for moisture. I have issues with retaining moisture now with me loose natural hair. Any advice will be much appreciated!!.
Thanks so much for your support 🫶🏾 check out this video for tips (Hydrate Your Locs with Froetry

Beautiful job!
Thank you love!
Was this meant to be interactive? I’m talking to you through every loc 😂😂
😂lol
Yessss, we love the interaction! I wanted to call you for help so bad lol
Is there a reason you comb coil and then twist at the end? (I haven't seen anyone combine those 2 techniques yet & just trying to gather as much info as i can before i start mine 😉)
Sorry, I'm not sure if you mentioned it and i didn't catch it.
Thanks! Your locs look great 👍🏽
Thank you so much! I coil at the root to have it lay flat during install (neater) and to also give the look of freshly retwisted locs at the root!
@@CourtneyGrayton oh ok, for responding 🙏🤗
Do you install your clients locs in the same way with the coil and then the twist?
The fact that you can coil your own hair is so fucking impressive
As a loctician, what size locs would you recommend for me if I got thin type 3b hair?
I would need to see it
What are your thoughts about Aloe Vera Gel from the plant oppose to synthetic products like gels?
I just started my loc journey today, on my own and I’m REALLY self conscious about the parts. I feel like I kinda just put them in all over my head. Will that negatively affect how my locs form?
It really depends! Because it’s up to preference and what’s most important to you. If it’s more important for your locs to be the same size, that’s all you need to check for. If you care about the parts being very neat and uniform, you might want to have someone take a look at them. I offer virtual consultations if you’d like my input! Www.Vagaro.Com/hairgoalswithcg
im planning on starting my locs on myself soon. i have a few questions that i cant find any answers on. if i start by braiding at the root and then following with a twist, could i then interloc after a wash and palm roll when i need a touch up? my main reason for starting is so that i can wash my hair more healthily. when washing could i use a tooth brush on my parts to get rid of build up? and can brushing the locs with a bristle brush help with lint and fluff? im open to any and all suggestions before i start thank you!!!
Yes, U can braid at the root and then interlock. I wouldn’t use a toothbrush or a bristle brush on your locs or scalp. Try using a clarifying shampoo before the moisturizing shampoo to remove buildup. Good luck on your journey!
I'm dead 😂😂
Sis, can you get any more relatable?. We are a month journey apart, we have the same texture, a similar loc count and now, you are a lefty too??😮
Twin, were have you been?😂😂😂❤
Its so hard for me to get that comb coil part right
I will say having an even amount in back is a must. I don't and it drives me crazy when I twist it up.
Hello, could you tell me how many looks you have?
156
@@CourtneyGraytonI had to go back to watch some of your videos, in case I did anything wrong 😂
We really are loc twins, how come I'm just finding you???.
I had 152 locs, I combined 2, so now they are 151.
You don't know how much I search for TH-camrs with the same loc count and texture as me 😂
Thank you so so much ❤
I just cannot get my twist to do right at the root for locs for nothing so should i just do the twist and leave them in anyway and have someone do a retwist
Yup!
