Achoti me too! I just shared this video with my sister (My Achoti, as she is thinking to finally loc her hair) I call k my locspiration , I told my that she did her own, I said. I’d rather pay. Now K has clients, she is blessing people with their loc installation! HalleluYah!! 🙌🏾🙋🏾♀️
I love the 2 entry point rotation. Its easier and faster for me. And i use the exact same tool :) I'm happy you use this rotation because my daughter loves the way your locs look and i will continue the 2 pt
So right about roots type. Mine stray in the beginning. Then when length comes, my roots stay with the locs. I just started my third journey, but my first set of micro locs. This is the best and most informative hair video I’ve seen on TH-cam. Most just love to hear themselves speak. You shared and illustrated well. I love the elephant in the background. Spirit animal 💕
Your hair is gorgeous. I’ve been researching trying figure out which method I want to start my locs and the micro twist with interlocking seems to be the best. I plan to put my twist in this weekend.
Frosandavocados lol not necessary at all! It might make them feel thinner actually. The more points in the rotation, the more compact/thin the loc ends up being
Your videos are great like a breath of fresh air and good advice! No waffle and straight to the point, your hair is looking AMAZING keep videos coming please I enjoy watch all it and not skipping through like I do with done of my other subscribed channels! 👍🏾🤫😊
Thank you for making this video. This is the simplest/detailed and educational tutorial I've seen so far. Now I feel confident in starting my locs on my own.Thanks again🙏❤
Instead of a bigger needle I just inserted a flat screwdriver into the needle eye and gently but firmly twisted it. That will widen the hole for your fatter locs. I also used wire cutters and trimmed the needle down so it was easier to grasp. Hope this helps you or anybody else.
I love this video. I find myself coming back to it often. I recommended it to a few people during one of Imani Goodridge's live streams.. 😊 great job!!
Your hair is gorgeous! I just learned to do my hair with twists and braids, due to the covid-19 isolation. There is no way I could do what you're doing and still keep my sanity! I want dreads but I'm going to have to get them professionally done. God bless you☺
Omg i am SOOOO glad i found your channel. I have 264 locs that I just started October 1, 2020. I am currently 10 weeks post retie (Nov 9 2020) and this video is right on time. I didn't know I had to 'pop' my locs. I'm also scheduled for my retie on monday coming. I can't wait. Thanks for sharing this! It's very informative. your hair looks exactly like mine so this makes me feel like I have a great reference person to look to for information!
Ur hair looks amazing, ur voice is so sweet. U remind me of a friend of mine, and ohhh ur absolutely gorgeous ! I'm 2 months microloc'd and i'm a bit nervous abt retightening my hair the right way. thanks a lot ! 😘
Am so glad I came across your video coz I just did this micro twists on my baby and I had no idea of maintenance ....now your definitely have a new subscriber
This video was so helpful. You answered my question regarding how much new growth you should have between reties, which is about 1 inch. You and your locs are beautiful 😍
I did my first interlock Sunday. 2 months loc'd. Started 4 point rotation. My next tightening, in trying 2 point. Pray I don't have holes. I love how interlocking looks,
Your hair is just out of this world! And the parting is beyond belief to have done it yourself! I would have loved to see how you prevent accidentally combining locks in the back of your head. I have to learn how to self re-tight. Is the 2-point rotation faster than the 4? How long does it take you to do your whole head?
The best instructional video I’ve seen! I just started my journey and I’ve been doing a 4 point rotation. Do you think I can start doing the 2? Its looks much easier
Your locs are beautiful I started mine with interlocking I only have about an inch of twist on the end but I’m about two months in and I’ve have an inch both reties
I really love this method and what I have been doing because of your video. I have done two retwist so far and they look amazing. Thank You for the video
Yeah I need to start doing this method. I did a retwist on NYE and about a fourth of them unraveled 😫. Plus I miss washing my hair weekly, although I’m trying to push it to 2 weeks though.
janisa reeves i see! Well dont spend your time wishing for more density. Your hair probably dries quicker and is easier to manage, plus im sure its beautiful 🖤
Your locs are so lovely. you inspired me! While i decided on a more "traditional" loc size with about 98 or so vs micro, I do appreciate the simplicity of your maintenance routine and the clarity of your tutorials! Thank you! All the best in your loc and med school journey! what will be your medical speciality (if decided)? I am enjoying a second career as a dental hygenist for about 3 years now! AP was one of my favors on my prerequisite journey! Be well 🙂
I like how you get right to the point in your videos. Can you do a video on how to fix the holes in your locs? I interlocked my long natural hair about a week ago and now I can see obvious holes in my locs. Please help! Thanks. 😊🙏🏾
Your locs are beautiful!! And you have such a bright and lovely personality. I'm subscribing :-) When I do decide to loc my hair again, I'm thinking of doing microlocs and/or interlocking. I always did palm rolling but if I'm active at all I tend to sweat in my hair and there goes my lovely fresh retwist :-( I just don't have all the time to do interlocking....it is such a longer process...but we'll see what I decide.
DaniGyrl82 thanks! And yes interlocking takes longer but also lasts longer (8-12 weeks vs 4 weeks) so I would bet that the time investment ends up evening out between the two methods
Omg I love your energy! You seem so sweet, I enjoy your videos, very helpful, and you have helped me decide how I want to restart my locs, I'm so happy I found you! 🌈 🥳👍
Did you start them as regular two strand twists?,And if so did you interlock the roots initially or did you start interlocking at your first retightening?
You locs are gorgeous, mine are two months old and my new growth grows away from locs so I cant semi fre form like I planned, I have to interlock pretty much every time I wash which is every 3 weeks
@@NapsAreTheNewBlack Yes, I just seen that and really glad to see you. Your hair has flourished beautifully too and congrats and God bless on your new season.
I really love your locs. They are so neat. I had been contemplating getting locs but the moment I saw your video and started following your loc journey, I made up my mind. I am 5 months locked and still trying to find a loc tool. Pleace can you post the link to the loc tool you are using? I will appreciate it. Thank you.
I have been researching and researching and the last few days I've said I'm doing sisterlocs or microlocs. So I've been going down that rabbit whole and then came across your locs and said Ummmm maybe micro twist is a better option. Omg I dunno anymore but I love your locs and the ease I which of learning to do then on my own. Ok back to researching I go but you got a new subby.
Hello just finding your channel and I love you locs they are exactly what I want . Same size and everything . So when going to the shop or anyone experience when explaining to them exactly what I want if I want your same method and routine what do you recommend I tell them . Because there small they look like sister locs but then they look like micro . So what exactly are yours and how did you start again?
Have you gotten any knots in your locs from doing the 2point rotation? If so how do you handle that? Your locs are very neat and beautiful. Congratulations
Hey this is absolutely beautiful amazing do you started your sisterlock with single Senegalese twists what to you use to moisturize your lock? Keep the good work waiting to hear from you thank you
thank you! and I do steam treatments for moisture and I also have a spray bottle for daily moisture. I go over the ingredients in my 8 month loc update video!
Would you recommend this two point rotation on thinner hair? What is the difference in appearance between the two...three or four point rotation? Your hair is beautiful.
racyrainbow i couldnt see at all, i just felt for it. If i could go in a straight line with my fingers where i felt only scalp and no hair then i figured the part was straight!
How do your parts stay so neat? The hair in my locs always ends up in the wrong loc and I have no idea how it is happening. When I try to untangle them, I end up with a ton of loose, frizzy hair (that I should probably just twist around the proper loc) but i'm nervous about ripping through them to separate. Seems like this isnt an issue for you, but if it is, I would love to see how you separate your locs!
Cienna Davis i really just make sure to not grab hairs from any other parts by using clips to hold those hairs down. I also separate my locs after each wash so they dont get too tangled at the roots. Some of my parts have gotten messed up over time, but for the most part those two methods really help!
I respect everyone that does their own!! 🙌🏾
Me tooooo! I lack the patience
Achoti me too! I just shared this video with my sister (My Achoti, as she is thinking to finally loc her hair) I call k my locspiration , I told my that she did her own, I said. I’d rather pay. Now K has clients, she is blessing people with their loc installation! HalleluYah!! 🙌🏾🙋🏾♀️

Virtuous Woman nice good luck with your journey!
Virtuous Woman how are your twists coming along?
So everyone is being extra when they tell me I need to do a 9.6 point rotation! Thank goodness lol 🙌🏿🤣
Frosandavocados lol not necessary at all! It might make them feel thinner actually. The more points in the rotation, the more compact/thin the loc ends up being
Briana G could they have been referring to a 2 point rotation, done from 9:00 and 6:00?
@@NapsAreTheNewBlack I did not realize that, thank you! You did my install and I am preparing myself for the first interlocking session.

Beautiful! I just started my twist locs. How soon did you wait before interlocking and washing your hair?
I'm not fully understanding how I would know where I ended my last rotation for my next Retie. Can you explain that again?
2 point rotation creates a Y shape where you end.

Sis what grid did you start with??
Your locks are beautiful, you did a great job.
Looks great! What made you decide to do 2 point rotation instead of 3 or 4?
raineynight its easier/quicker for me and i think it leaves the bases a tad bit thicker!
For the record, hair grows half an inch a month on average so you’re right on track
I make sure i end all my 2pnt rotations in n-s so that i don't have to wonder
