I agree with your statement about listening to your hair. I had locs for many years but decided to comb them out because I wanted to experience my hair in it's loose afro state. That only lasted about 5 months, lol. My hair did not like being combed and would tangle right back up so I listened to it and I'm loc'd again and it feels right ; )
loveineverystitch same wit me lol
I agree I have Mohawk dreads. I had first set, got hair lice so comb them out to get rid of lice natural way (no chemicals) then after 1 month of washing my hair every day sometime twice a day, I redressed my hair by just twisting and letting it be. Side not I just can’t seem to dream my sides, it gets very sweaty and itchy they so that’s why I have Mohawk.
My sprit is telling me it’s time to loc my hair. I had negative perceptions of locks as well, yet now I’m excited that I understand their true power for women of color. Thank u for this video more conformation
how’s it going? (:
I immediately connected with this video 🙏🏾. Your energy is beautiful and it's as if you told my story for locking my hair lol. Thank you sista for sharing 💕
I stopped letting other people twist my locks because the Energy they left behind made me feel emotional depressed upset angry unhappy. Even tho I would get major complements on my hair my spirit wasn’t right afterwards. I would have headaches sometimes my head would itch and most people do it for the money not the love of what their doing for a living and spiritually I would feel that. So now I’m freefrom lol and I didn’t know that my hair was going to team up all together on me, so I had to separate a lot of my locks lol 😂 I almost had just three big locks I was like oh my Lol but I enjoy this journey
Wilson Wilson the the way creator intended for you
Wow really lls 😂😂😂😂😂 please your taking it too damn far get over yourself you must be week because that shit can’t prevail on me maybe you but not me
me tooo.... I can relate 100%😟 they make us believe that saloon styles on Locs is the best...when it actually isn't
I definitely can relate to this being an empath I can not tolerate other people doing my hair
I never really thought about who does my hair and how it affects my emotions. Thanks sis! Im going to keep that in mind... ❤
This European woman says to my husband yesterday, "Thank you for helping me. I know how yall are about your hair," when he helped her get some things out of her car. He said, "You don't know anything about my hair." She proceeds to send an email to the director of the region saying that he didn't want to help her because of his hair, and that he "sassed" her. I was like, that's that white people talk. She saw your hair as a threat and sign of resistance, so she put the call out to her people lol
Wow. Smh.
The caucasity!!!
Good comment, even if you show respect to some white an non Blacks that negative vibe is always there an if you buck are so resistance to their ways they quick to tell on you like kids even though they started it.lol
The 9 Minds thats messed up. She is a negative hipocrite. Every culture is about their hair. Most just have an unhealthy view or use of products. I have irish hair and for years faught to rid my curls and how bad my hair would knot. Im glad some coworkers of mine recommended locking my hair and i did so much research and finally i stopped brushing. I am sending you and your husband glowing thoughts of love and prayers you never have to deal with that kind of negativety again.
Omg they kill me some times rolls eyes 😔
I’ve been thinking about locs for sometime (years). I realize all the time I spend detangling my hair is just fighting what it naturally wants to do. Made an appointment Friday 😊
kendra Awesome! I feel the same way! I’m getting my hair in locs next month ☺️
Brittany Johnson yes I’ve never been happier with my hair 😊😊😊 Good luck on your journey!
kendra Awesome! Thank you! 💫✨☺️

Right on Right on and shalom my Nubian sistah I love that you realize the spirituality of wrapping your hair weather with locs or afro style I wrap my hair every day for my spiritual covering I feel safe with my head covered. I receive more positive energy with my head wrap it is now my trade mark. I've been on my loc journey for 7 years and also keeping my head wrapped. I would not trade this for anything. I am grateful for my awakening. May Yah continue to bless you and your family. Peace and abundant blessings, and Peace to the sisterhood.
Damn!
I feel that my tight coils, always wrapping around a neighboring coil for dear life, begged to be locd. I've been SisterLocked since July and have loved every second of being so. I thought I'd miss the feel of my curl pattern, but the feel of my locs maturing is interesting and captivating...that's the only way I can think of that describes my locg experience and love I feel for them. Looking forward to your updates, and blissful energy in general :)
love this perspective!
entiice Thx...and I'll be checking out your student loan payoff video shortly. Congratz!!
I’m one year loc’d my journey has led me on a new spiritual path!! Definitely a new subscriber!!!
Congratulations, welcome to the loc family! Locs come with an indescribable journey of self and I feel like you explained it perfectly. Much love!
love your locs
Thank you so much for this video. I've had natural hair since the 80's. I find myself consistently disappointed in the some natural hair vloggers who are oblivious to the political and health ramifications of the "natural hair journey." Basically, I'm finding the natural hair community incredibly vapid most times. So this video is a breath of fresh air!
i like you :) yes, hair is muy importante! i think most people who begin the natural hair transformation for the correct reasons will relate. expressing your natural self should not just be a trend to follow, you should feel it i your gut, your soul to transform. you should do it for good reasons, not just bc it is trending. specifically, i think locs are also apart of the spiritual evolution of self and hair. hair is vital. each strand is an antenna, connecting you more and more to unseen. the Creators. :) great work, my seastar. keep spreading light and love.
I feel every word ur saying....my hair was tailbone length...I went from afro to tailbone...and it was extremely hard to keep up....everytime I wore it down it would Matt up badly....ugh and so many tangles...omg tangles and knotts... so finally I decided to loc my hair...I was done trying to make my hair do something it didnt want to do
U attract your tribe 💕✨
Following. Hopefully I'll be starting at 12/29
Loved this video very inspiring and informative I been wrestling for years to decide to loc and begin my spiritual journey to see that it's a community of souls that share the same frequency is amazing I'm in the beginning stages but my spirit said it's time peace and blessings to you Queen and keep coming with wisdom and knowledge (videos)! I'm subscribed so I will stay tuned(loc'd) in ✌
I loved your video and Im actually 2 months in to my loc journey and loving it soo far, some days are great and some days are awful but Im trying to stick to it!
Updates?
Thank you my sister for sharing. I've been "natural" for about two years and had began my loc journey a few months ago. You hit every nail on the head! I'm appreciative of your knowledge and sharing. 👑 Keep Queening! 💕
Blessings Sista!!! This video was 100% on time and wonderfully detailed and completely accurate in the sense that, we absorb energies through our tresses. The more we are aware of this and how to protect ourselves, the healthier and more in tuned we become. I had been a lose natural since 1989, but I would hot comb/ flat iron my hair and use other heat based tools to alter the natural texture of my hair. Although my hair could revert back to it's natural state, there was still the attachment to assimilating into the Western cultural perception of beauty. About 6 years ago, I decided that I was no longer going to use any form of heat or anything else to alter the natural texture of my hair. As a loose natural, I was experimenting and searching for the right combination of organic hair care products, hairstyles, wraps etc. I learned to install crochet braids, Senegalese twists, you name it , I could do it. I didn't know exactly what I was looking for, but I was determined to find my "true self". So, I was still searching for that one hairstyle that could help to ground me and point me in the right direction. About a year ago, I experienced an epiphany if you will. I decided to install and maintain small locs. Literally , the moment I started the process... my father told me that he knew that I had finally found myself. And he was so very correct. Everything just clicked, and I am able to experience and live life more organically. I am also able to avoid and abate toxic energies and pernicious individuals. So, to conclude... thank you for sharing . Because it is so refreshing to see that there are more people like yourself connecting with the ancestors and the Gods!!! One Love.
Wow Iam so excited I came across your video my husband tell me to just leave it alone let Most High YAH grow my hair it is growing
Hello there! I just messaged you on Instagram with a personal story I was hoping you'd shed some light on....then I realized you hadn't posted since 2017. So I am wondering what's the best way I could contact you?
Whoever ya king is big ups to him , n this day n age its a lot harder to get in a relationship with a queen such as yourself let alone come across one due to western civilization, indoctrination etc. We as a people lost or forgotten who we are along with the power and beauty we posses natural with that being said , Do u gotta sista??? Hook a brotha up lol Luv JD Marley aka king Mars
I needed this, this morning. Thank you Empress.
"Listening to your hair".. that is a great comment. #Yasss
Yes, Stumbled upon your video. Everyone is doing stylish dreads, or the new fad, Freeform dreads.Have been natural since 1980 now 57 years old. Did the big chop every 5 years . I was never spritual with my journey to lock, nor ate the proper meals because I could not commit, so I stayed with the basics ,kept my hair natural and never locked.So funny to see so many people dreading, have no clue as to what it really means. There is a history behind being dread. I could go on, and on but hope everyone understands my point.
pls may you explain a little on that
I love your spirit! and your locs look great. Can I ask why you call your boyfriend "King"? just curious. Thanks
You are very beautiful.
Are you capeverdean? which island are you?
I have always loved the way locs looked.... It's been about a year now that I stared looking into dreads but I been saying it for years .... And finally I decided to do my own.... I originally wanted someone to do it but I felt I'd feel more connected if I did them myself.
And I get the whole head wrape too. I also feel more protected when I wear mine.... And my hair tells me if I'm healthy or not. Buy I think I will be wrapping my hair a lot more.
I also shaved or buzz cut my hair in a what started off as a spiritual journey lthat sided more with Buddhism. Also resistance in the most peaceful manner siding with the neglect and abuse of my people! Universal Love!...Black Lives Matter!!!
Congratulations, welcome to the loc family! Locs come with an indescribable journey of self and I feel like you explained it perfectly. Much love!
You are beautiful 😍 love, light and peace to your soul!✨
Greetings from Michigan sending loc love i have sisterlocks and love them welcome to the loc family congratulations on your journey sending loc love. Just speak from the heart and ship me some beads from my homeland
Great
Exactly where I am....17 months semi free formed....(I do separate)
Truly grateful for you and this video, I literally explained to my best friend yesterday why locs were so important spiritually, not realizing the level of my awareness yet cutting off my hair about two years ago and continually cutting it because of the trauma I was going through and believing it best to just let go of all that energy, I thought I cut off the pain but I'm realizing that it is time to come back to my roots. Love you Sistar, Peace
Thank you beautiful sister 💟 I’m starting my natural goddess locks today with prayers
Good video. Tbe music loop was a distraction. Thank you.
Objection
Woven Psalm139:15 I think it was fine but maybe it was a bit loud.
Definitely true. I can’t fully hear her cause of that dang blaring saxophone lol
It was perfect. No distractions here
I am Happy to have locked. It was a serious, spiritual, financial decision. Best EVER.
Everything you said resonated with me so much. Please return and share your journey
Good luck on your jounery God bless
Kelissa in the background 😍❤

Like and subscribe to UR channel how encouraging u are i like ur seance of spirituality beautiful
My hair has been natural for about 20 years and locked for 17 months. My daughter's hair is natural too and it has been so amazing watching her grow to love her hair too.
My husband has had locs since 2008 and my 12 year old daughter since 2013. About 2 years ago I started contemplating locs. My hair is thin and it was cut short. So I started letting it grow, eventually it was long enough. This pass April I went to get locs. It has been a journey that I wish I could have done sooner. It is such a relief not to worry about my hair defining who I was not.
I really like that word's from you. that people should be careful who is doing your hair.
Thank you for being real. I honor your authentic braveness. Are you on IG? What’s your hair story now?
Just finding your channel and was drawn in due to the topic. Enjoyable message and decided to subscribe. Embarking on something new with my tresses as well.
Beautiful backdrop. Congrats on the beginning of your loc journey 🎊🎉💕
It's such a continuous evolution, I completely relate! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Please share more about the Sisterhood Mythology! I love this video and your energy. Can’t wait for more videos
Your energy!! ❤❤
thanks dear
press on . I went dread 3 yrs ago from a shaved head after a traumatic episode and thy healed me
I was the same when I was younger. I’m more open to locks now that I know more.
You lost me when you started talking about you hair absorbing people’s energy... I don’t know about you, but my hair is just dead skin-cells, and the only thing it absorbs is water and leave-in conditioner.😂
I can relate to her. Im very sensitive to feeling others energy and like to wrap my hair,now I understand why.
Hey Queen. Love your hair journey. Stay blessed!
Subscribe. Much love queen.

I love your spirit! and your locs look great. Can I ask why you call your boyfriend "King"? just curious. Thanks
This video is way to long just to say your choosing to loc your hair. Unless your married I don't see the point of calling your bf your king.
