Just found this channel and I'm blown away! You broken down the knowledge of my hair to a fraction! I'm about to start this journey and wanted to know more than trend talk! I do do things just because everyone is doing it but i have to know the logical reasons behind it! Most people simply talk trendy nut you've explained things so wonderfully and supplied real knowledge about our hair! Thank you my sister! I'm getting excited about this new journey!
I really enjoyed listening to this because I have this low density hair and you are so right….I will try the 2hand twist first I was thinking about the Micro extensions but listening to what you said makes me understand
I’m a yr + into my sister Locs journey and found your channel just scrolling thru. It is the most defining and informative channel I’ve came across to date on low density hair. You were to the point, informative, covering all the relevant areas in caring for and expectations with this hair type. You broke down the pathophysiology of fine hair and build upon that. I’m extremely grateful to have found you💯
I love the way that you break things down. In terms of appropriate lock sizing, I do feel like that is the job of the loctician installing/establishing the locs. Most people know what they want, but they don't always know what they need. The difference between a good loctician and a great one is a good one will install locs you want and they look good for the moment where a great one will explain why what you want is not what you need and install locs that make sense for your hair long term.
Great video! I have fine hair and I believe it is low density so this information is very helpful! Gratitude sis! 💛 I wish I could start my journey with you, but I will certainly keep picking up these gems you’re dropping.
I’m so glad I found your channel. I maintain my own locs because these so called professionals always do what’s best for them and not what’s best for their clients in my experiences. I know my hair better than anyone. You have definitely helped me on my journey and have answered so many of my questions. Thank you. Thank you❤️
I agree this is why I had to cut my hair off and start all over , the lady that did mines wouldn’t never listen to me when I requested certain things and she use to spray hair spray when I told her that I didn’t want that in my head and over time my locs started thinning so I cut them I’m thinking about micro locs
I love how you explain in sooooo detail about low density hair because I cut my locs off (2 1/2 growth) to start my micro loc (I wanted smaller locs) journey myself and it’s the best way (for my hair) because I like doing different styles but don’t like the tension so thank you soooo much for explaining 😊
Loved this video. I am on my 2nd loc journey. I started my first journey with extentions an un be known to me I believe I have 4c fine low density hair. A much different to texture to 4c dense hair. I always wondered why I was able to manage my loose natural so well no matter how incredible the shrinkage was..lol Throught the year I noticed that the extention was always so much thicker than the hair growing from my scalp, it never matched. This was causing me to wrap hair in to complete match the thickness. After a year I was tired of this and combed everything out and restarted with 2 strain twist. I was so confused as to what part size to use. I assumed bigger parts would make a fuller loc but I saw too much of my scalp, smaller parts made me have micro locs which would mean longer maintenance. I decided to go with smaller parts and 2 strand twist; crossing my finger the part size is what I liked. After two months I took some out and redid some parts and insta locked them after because the strands keep unraveling and I am now 3 months in and I think I finally got the lock part ratio right. I am glad I finally found your page because after hearing all your points I now have a better understanding of my hair. I almost considered combing these out and ket a professional restart me because I didn't like seeing my scalp, I am now going to embrace that I have low density hair and I will see my scalp and I can't let my new growth grow wild to avoid seeing my scalp...lol
I needed this! I am 14 months in and I went from 68 to 55. I wish I had this knowledge when I started bc my hair is low density and fine. I regret instant locking but still loving this journey ❤
Love all the info. ! Please do one for fine strands medium density hair! Thanks for sharing!😉 Wish I can hope on a plane every 8 weeks to see you for maintenance!☺️
6m trad locs here. This video saved me. Was over oiling and extending retwists at 6 or 7 weeks. At 4.5m I stopped oiling and it helped my hair loc. I also get retwists every 5w now. You are a God send! Thank you for your knowledge and care.
Wow!!! Where were you almost 30 years ago when I first started my traditional locs ,which have long since broken off because I have fine, low-density hair, but didn't know it? I found your channel this past weekend because I'm about to start a microlocs journey. I just LOVE your channel! You are a wealth of important information that I just can't believe I'm learning for the 1st time at age 58! For example, I had NO idea about my low porosity hair and why I've struggled with retaining moisture until I howled at your bougie analogy. In addition to your wisdom and expertise, I really love your wit and sense of humor. Thank you for EVERYTHING and I'm sending ALL best wishes to you.
I appreciate this. I know I have fine hair but I think my density is between low and medium (depending on which area). This was helpful as I plan for installing my locs this year
Pauline, another great video so informative for those of us with fine low density hair. How I wish you were my consultant, your amazing. Love your videos.
This video was very helpful! I am doing my research and starting some sister locs. I cut my hair down about a year ago and there’s a decent patty up top now that i typically keep braided 😂 I am not a hair person, i tired the natural and all them products made my head spin and my pockets thin! Both of my sisters have locs and i love their hair for them… they have traditional locs (forgive me if i am not saying this correctly) but I think sister locs would work great for me as i do like styling my hair when it was relaxed years ago…. This info was truly appreciated ❤
I wish I had found you 3 years ago! I'm about to start my 3rd set of locs. I cut off the first set because of loc extensions causing my hair to thin. I cut the 2nd set because of the parting system. I wish I had just done microlocs and never tried extensions. My next journey is set to start in April...
I just cut my bra strap length locs off and combed out the base because my small locs were breaking off. I got tired of paying loctitians $$ to reattach them only to have them fall out after a few weeks. I plan to nourish my scalp and hair for 6 or so months, then start over next year with a thicker loc base. Great video for us folks with fine, low-density hair!
The sound effect you made when you were showing how people try to braid close to the root almost took me out!!!!! YAAAWK! 😂😂😂I have definitely braided too close to my scalp for braids.
Thank you so much for this video I needed this information I was about to add extensions 😂😂😂. I love you your content so informative and your funny. Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hi. This was such an informative video. I am the victim of fine low density hair. I am a little short of a year in my journey and my frustration is coming from the stragglers. The really skinny locs with the budding at the ends and hang lower than the rest of the locs. I feel like they will never thicken. What are your suggestions on how to handle those locs?
You are so helpful. I thank you for your thoughtful explanation. I am going to keep my monthly appointments . I am in my 3rd month loc journey at 69 years old
Love how you thoroughly explained things. I just started my Loc journey and have fine low density 3b/3c hair. I think I may have started my two strand twist locs a little to small. I have about 138 locs.
Thank you so much! I understand my type hair so much more now because I never knew about the strands having layers. This was the most in-depth and informative video I have seen on fine low density hair.
You are so sweet. Always nice and kind. I appreciate you. I started my loc journey in March 2020 and did it alone. I love my hair and make a point of not relying too tight. Love you!
I feel like you're the person to ask, so I'm gonna do it. Do people with micro locs have problems with thinning edges? What I mean is, are microlocs more gentle on the edges vs. traditional locs? I have traditional thick locs, and my hair is fine, so my edges are SUPER fragile and can't take any type of tension, even a loose scarf. Also, do microlocs marry at the roots like traditional locs? Or flatten at all? My only problem with thick locs is that they flatten so easily or become misshapen quickly.
I love the way you broke down everything the only question that I have is I'm trying to figure out which should I get sisterlocks or micro locs I have fine low density hair and all of my edges are completely gone...... I had dreads before, and it started making my hair thin, I believe, due to the lack of me not getting it washed and conditioned and retwist often and the Styles I was getting was too tight around my edges
Thanks for the video I do have fine low density hair and my hair dresser and I figured it was the extensions so we said we would snip them a few inches until their out piece by piece
Thank you Beauty, you have answered many questions I’ve had and affirmed things I felt I shouldn’t do to my locks. I have some gray so I’ve just been coloring my hair natural black because I’m not ready to go gray yet. And during lockdown (Covid) I was painstakingly retightening my own hair really for two and a half years I did my own hair. So at this stage I really don’t want to cause damage. You have really helped me with this video. I completely understood your explanation of having wholes in the lock. 👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾❤️❤️ Thank you again.
Hello dear!! I am amazed at your knowledge, skills and work and so appreciate you willingness to help the community❤ I'm curious, are you exaggerating your point when you say "10 hairs" within the parting space? Still trying to determine my level of density lol.. Thankfully I have a lot more than 10 with my soft hair😁 Blessings!
I have fine low density hair. Thank you so much for your explanation of fine/low density. I also, j only have 260 sisterlocks. I really don't believe my hair could have held any more locks
Do 3-point and 4-point rotation sisterlocks/Microlocks mature differently? If so, in what ways? Does the final product of the individual locks look the same?
Thank you for doing this. I was about to book an appointment to color and highlight my microlocs. Not doing it now. I have fine low density hair and I can't run the risk. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this very timely information that seems tailored for my specific needs now that I am older and my course dense hair has become fine low density light gray at the temples & hair line with dark gray crown down to my nape. My curls and texture are wonderful! My hair grows very fast but lays straight at the root causing me to have to 2 point interlock instead of instant locking the new growth as I had planned. Thank you for the knowledge that I needed to understand what has happened. I will be watching! 🏆
Thank you for your informative video on fine hair. This is video is the best that I have seen with my hair type. My what is I understand that I should hydrate my hair 2 to 3 times a week. However I have fine soft curly hair and every time I mist my hair with the rosewater and oil. My hair is a frizzy puff up mess. What should I do? I am in 11 months into my loc journey. Thank you for your help.
Yes, unfortunately with your hair type, frizziness is the norm. I would suggest twisting or braiding the hair after spraying to tame the frizz. Let it set then take the twist/braids out. As your locs mature, the frizziness will decrease but it won't go away.
I've listen to tons of videos! Trying to decide if I can go in this direction for my thinning hair which I also have a bald spot. Most likely from crochet and braids😢 So darn informative ❤ I just don't know what to do...
Great video! What are your thoughts on using oils? I’ve heard, “ Don’t use anything but water”, “Add oil to your water, but only spray it on your scalp” and on and on! I’m totally confused and don’t know what to do. My hair is the perfect example of fine, low density.
I am PRO oil. Of course, I wouldn't suggest it if you're newly locd with fine hair and loose curl pattern, especially if it's short. Overall, it all depends on the type of oil you use and how. Here's a video that goes into more details about oils th-cam.com/video/qrZ46FaA8X4/w-d-xo.html
Came across your channel and must say i got the most useful information for fine low density hair. How many locks would you suggest for someone with such hair type and small sized head. Will 200 locks be ideal. Will the hair look fuller with this number as time goes on?
Good afternoon, I watch you when you teach on sister locs my hair is already Bleach and I'm getting my installment in 2 weeks. I got it bleached maybe about 3 months ago can I still get them? Please let me know
I really enjoyed this video!! Everything you said was in-line with my thinking regarding my future self-install. I have super super fine hair but it’s average density. It’s soo frustrating how easily my hair breaks. 😢
Thank you Pauline on this information. I have fine thin low density loose curl hair and 21 months Sisterloc’d. Question can I color the gray no bleach but I use developer? How can I correct bunching? After I colored my hair I experienced bunching and had it repaired. Then I went swimming in the ocean for salt water locking and my ends bunches again!! How can I prevent and avoid bunching? How will this impact my locs formation? Thanks
Yes, you can color the grays but because your locs are still forming, you must bundle when coloring, protective style at the beach, etc. This is how I color newer locs th-cam.com/video/5nJBF2qpnBE/w-d-xo.html In my last live, I showed how to fix bunching but will be doing another video on that. Also, watch the protective style video. That gives a lot of info on how to avoid bunching as well.
Just started watching your channel & I'm just blown away with the knowledge you have I've never knew that it's three parts to the hair this was the first I've ever heard of that! I have low density fine hair and I never knew that it meant I was missing the inner layer. It made so much sense the way you broke it down. I'm really excited about starting my siserlock journey! I'm happy I found your channel your passion for what you do shines through, I had to subscribe! Quick question where are you located?
I have fine hair and I’ve always been told never get locs your is too nice your hair is too soft. This annoys me so much! I love this informative video and im already to get locs and just wanted to do some research and you answered all my questions.
Thank you !! I literally took all of your points to heart . I took my extensions out because I have low density fine hair my hair is thin in the extensions were big and bulky lol . So now I’m interlocking my natural microlocs I love them already.
Great video! I'm 63, and and have been loced for 23 years. My hair is becoming thinner as I age. I also have a lot of grey. I have been using henna and indigo for years to cover it. I know that henna is very drying so I always deeply moisturize after a henna application. Do you think the henna can be contributing to my thinning?
This video provides a wealth of information! Thanks soooo much! I actually came looking for info on Low porosity hair, since I am in the fact finding stage, but for your very helpful vid instead. When getting Sister Locks does your hair density matter?🤔 Thanks again! 🤩😍
Thank you! Yes, I am only taking installs but not maintaining them. I tag team on the installs and then pass you on to one of my trusted colleagues to maintain your hair. You can book a consultation on my website when you're ready and we'll go from there.
Question about the loc extensions. You mentioned not to do it because your hair will not be use to the extra weight. What if you already have locs and cut them off and replaced them with extensions. Technically, wouldn't your hair be used to the weight at that point?
It's official im on board with my sister locs January 21, 2023 and thanks to you and your great knowledge I'm ready for this blessed journey. God bless you & family .❤️
Thank you so much for taking the time to provide this information. I have been searching high and low on YT and you summarized everything in one video!! I plan on installing my own medium-sized microlocs due to my low hair density. I do have a question though.. I know you advised 2 strand twist (which is the method I am going to use), I was wondering if I could start off with braids at the root and then the 2 strands? I ask because I am not sure if my hair will be able to hold the the twist without a braid as the base. However if starting with the braid will damage the integrity of the loc later on as it matures then I will definitely not go that route. Please help😫
It was very helpful, thank You, & depressing all at once... My goodness I really been researching, your information was Real!!! I just want my locs to turn out right..😩. My hair breaks with regular braids and comes out in bulk w weaves ... I just want bulk some kinda way...( No wigs)
Thank you, thank you, I really needed this information, my question is: I had my friend do 2 strand twist on my med-fine density hair, and she put in human hair extension braided from the root and two strand twist the rest. it's scalpy and thin on the sides which are my thinning areas, with your excellent knowledge do you know how long it will take to fill out, or to actually start locking. haha, I just heard you say dont add extensions, oh gosh, I already did. again my hair isn't as thin as your clients, but I can see my scalp.
Just found this channel and I'm blown away! You broken down the knowledge of my hair to a fraction! I'm about to start this journey and wanted to know more than trend talk! I do do things just because everyone is doing it but i have to know the logical reasons behind it! Most people simply talk trendy nut you've explained things so wonderfully and supplied real knowledge about our hair! Thank you my sister! I'm getting excited about this new journey!
Thank you and I'm glad you're excited about the journey
Yes she give a lot of info 💯👍🏾
I finally started and my fine hair worries me
Mmmmhmmm I know video you talking about lol. I watched it prior to this one
I really enjoyed listening to this because I have this low density hair and you are so right….I will try the 2hand twist first
I was thinking about the Micro extensions but listening to what you said makes me understand
I’m a yr + into my sister Locs journey and found your channel just scrolling thru. It is the most defining and informative channel I’ve came across to date on low density hair. You were to the point, informative, covering all the relevant areas in caring for and expectations with this hair type. You broke down the pathophysiology of fine hair and build upon that. I’m extremely grateful to have found you💯
Aww, 😊 thank you so much!!
I love the way that you break things down. In terms of appropriate lock sizing, I do feel like that is the job of the loctician installing/establishing the locs. Most people know what they want, but they don't always know what they need. The difference between a good loctician and a great one is a good one will install locs you want and they look good for the moment where a great one will explain why what you want is not what you need and install locs that make sense for your hair long term.
Exactly!
I used to teach cosmetology. I can tell you have ,what they say down South, GROWING HANDS. You CARE‼️🙏🥰🌹💪😎🗽🇵🇷
Great video! I have fine hair and I believe it is low density so this information is very helpful! Gratitude sis! 💛 I wish I could start my journey with you, but I will certainly keep picking up these gems you’re dropping.
Thank you💙
I’m so glad I found your channel. I maintain my own locs because these so called professionals always do what’s best for them and not what’s best for their clients in my experiences. I know my hair better than anyone. You have definitely helped me on my journey and have answered so many of my questions. Thank you. Thank you❤️
Yay! So glad I could help and so sorry for your experience.
Yesss, Exactly we know our hair better than Anyone... U hit the hammer on the nail. Well spoken/said.
I agree this is why I had to cut my hair off and start all over , the lady that did mines wouldn’t never listen to me when I requested certain things and she use to spray hair spray when I told her that I didn’t want that in my head and over time my locs started thinning so I cut them I’m thinking about micro locs

What a journey! Love it thought because you were able to see and understand along the way. Glad you're enjoying it now!
I learn ❤ every time you utter a syllable. Received and understood 🙏🏾
I needed this! I am 14 months in and I went from 68 to 55. I wish I had this knowledge when I started bc my hair is low density and fine. I regret instant locking but still loving this journey ❤
Glad you're still loving your journey ❤️
Love all the info. ! Please do one for fine strands medium density hair! Thanks for sharing!😉 Wish I can hope on a plane every 8 weeks to see you for maintenance!☺️
You got it!
@@EnToiBeauty Thank you! can’t wait to see it!😉
You are one of the MOST informative loctician I know, like always, thank you for your professionalism 💕 by the way I feel this was especially for me😘
Wow, thank you!
I love the detailed, helpful information provided for low density hair! You are a treasure ❤️❤️
Thank you😊
6m trad locs here. This video saved me. Was over oiling and extending retwists at 6 or 7 weeks. At 4.5m I stopped oiling and it helped my hair loc. I also get retwists every 5w now. You are a God send! Thank you for your knowledge and care.

I appreciate this. I know I have fine hair but I think my density is between low and medium (depending on which area). This was helpful as I plan for installing my locs this year
Go for it!
Pauline, another great video so informative for those of us with fine low density hair. How I wish you were my consultant, your amazing. Love your videos.

Ooo my Goush!! You are AWSOME! Thank you so much !! You were very informative!! God Bless love!
Thank you for the info! I have fine hair but medium to high density. I'm trying to learn as much as possible before I loc this week.
Well, you've come to the right place to learn. Enjoy!
I wish I had found you 3 years ago! I'm about to start my 3rd set of locs. I cut off the first set because of loc extensions causing my hair to thin. I cut the 2nd set because of the parting system. I wish I had just done microlocs and never tried extensions. My next journey is set to start in April...
Yeah, I stay away from extensions. Wishing you the best on your 3rd set

😆 🤣 😂
I LOVE listening to you. You always give very good information. 👍 👍👍
Thank you🥰
You have the best break down I've seen so far. Thanks for the clarity!
You're very welcome!
Thank you so much for this video I needed this information I was about to add extensions 😂😂😂.
I love you your content so informative and your funny. Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hi. This was such an informative video. I am the victim of fine low density hair. I am a little short of a year in my journey and my frustration is coming from the stragglers. The really skinny locs with the budding at the ends and hang lower than the rest of the locs. I feel like they will never thicken. What are your suggestions on how to handle those locs?
You are so helpful. I thank you for your thoughtful explanation. I am going to keep my monthly appointments . I am in my 3rd month loc journey at 69 years old
Wonderful! Yes, be consistent. Enjoy the journey.
This video is just what I needed! My establishment was only 4 days ago and I have to be very very cautious. TY!
Love how you thoroughly explained things. I just started my Loc journey and have fine low density 3b/3c hair. I think I may have started my two strand twist locs a little to small. I have about 138 locs.
That amount of locs isn't bad at all. You should be fine.
Your lessons make me understand why my loctition did some of my microlocs bigger on certain areas of my head.
Yep. Gotta do what's best for your hair
This is very revealing ☺️ Thank You!
And I Love your humor with it😂
You know your stuff. I wish i had seen your video's before getting my locs put in.
Thank you
Thank you so much! I understand my type hair so much more now because I never knew about the strands having layers. This was the most in-depth and informative video I have seen on fine low density hair.
Aww, glad I can help💙
What is the best way to find someone to install your locs. It's so many people who climb to install but don't really cate for your hair.
You are so sweet. Always nice and kind. I appreciate you. I started my loc journey in March 2020 and did it alone. I love my hair and make a point of not relying too tight. Love you!
Aw, thanks love!
Everything you said is true. I have thin locks and when I get them styled it’s so pretty but when I take the locks down my locks feel so weak
I feel like you're the person to ask, so I'm gonna do it. Do people with micro locs have problems with thinning edges? What I mean is, are microlocs more gentle on the edges vs. traditional locs? I have traditional thick locs, and my hair is fine, so my edges are SUPER fragile and can't take any type of tension, even a loose scarf. Also, do microlocs marry at the roots like traditional locs? Or flatten at all? My only problem with thick locs is that they flatten so easily or become misshapen quickly.

You are welcome
Thanks doe this video. It certainly helped with some of the questions about color with low density hair
Glad it helped
Haven't started locking my hair, but I have fine low density hair and I really want to do microlocs.
Great video!
Thank you
Do 3-point and 4-point rotation sisterlocks/Microlocks mature differently?
If so, in what ways? Does the final product of the individual locks look the same?
Depending on your texture, the 3 point might have more of a zig zag or crinkly look.
Thank you for doing this. I was about to book an appointment to color and highlight my microlocs. Not doing it now. I have fine low density hair and I can't run the risk. Thank you!
you're welcome
You really explain this process well. Will be following you 4 ever now.
aww thank youu
Thank you so much for this very timely information that seems tailored for my specific needs now that I am older and my course dense hair has become fine low density light gray at the temples & hair line with dark gray crown down to my nape.
My curls and texture are wonderful! My hair grows very fast but lays straight at the root causing me to have to 2 point interlock instead of instant locking the new growth as I had planned. Thank you for the knowledge that I needed to understand what has happened.
I will be watching! 🏆
Wow, my first comment from a male! Thank you so much for watching. I feel honored😊
Thank you for your informative video on fine hair. This is video is the best that I have seen with my hair type. My what is I understand that I should hydrate my hair 2 to 3 times a week. However I have fine soft curly hair and every time I mist my hair with the rosewater and oil. My hair is a frizzy puff up mess. What should I do? I am in 11 months into my loc journey. Thank you for your help.
Yes, unfortunately with your hair type, frizziness is the norm. I would suggest twisting or braiding the hair after spraying to tame the frizz. Let it set then take the twist/braids out. As your locs mature, the frizziness will decrease but it won't go away.
I've listen to tons of videos! Trying to decide if I can go in this direction for my thinning hair which I also have a bald spot. Most likely from crochet and braids😢 So darn informative ❤ I just don't know what to do...
Just found this..thank you for being so informative!!
You are so welcome!
Great video! What are your thoughts on using oils? I’ve heard, “ Don’t use anything but water”, “Add oil to your water, but only spray it on your scalp” and on and on! I’m totally confused and don’t know what to do. My hair is the perfect example of fine, low density.
I am PRO oil. Of course, I wouldn't suggest it if you're newly locd with fine hair and loose curl pattern, especially if it's short. Overall, it all depends on the type of oil you use and how. Here's a video that goes into more details about oils th-cam.com/video/qrZ46FaA8X4/w-d-xo.html
Came across your channel and must say i got the most useful information for fine low density hair. How many locks would you suggest for someone with such hair type and small sized head. Will 200 locks be ideal. Will the hair look fuller with this number as time goes on?
You are AWESOME SIS
WOW
LOVE LOVE LOVE YOU
PLEASE KEEP HELPING US🙏🏾♥️🌸🥰
Aww, thank you. I'm here to help y'all thru it all 🤗
Where are you? How do I book with you.
Good afternoon, I watch you when you teach on sister locs my hair is already Bleach and I'm getting my installment in 2 weeks. I got it bleached maybe about 3 months ago can I still get them? Please let me know
Very educational! Thanks for sharing ❤
You are so welcome!
This was so informative, thank you!
You're so welcome!
Another educational video… looking forward to the loose curl sisterlock video 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
That is coming soon
I appreciate your knowledge. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you 😊
great video as usual! for fine + low density hair would you recommend 3 or 4 point rotation for interlocking method?
3 point
I really enjoyed this video!! Everything you said was in-line with my thinking regarding my future self-install. I have super super fine hair but it’s average density.
It’s soo frustrating how easily my hair breaks. 😢
I definitely get the frustration
Very informative as always!!!
Thank you🥰
Your brilliant, very informative. Thank you
You are very welcome
Thanks sis your informations stands out among the rest.
Oh wow, thank you so much🤗🥰
Thank you Pauline on this information. I have fine thin low density loose curl hair and 21 months Sisterloc’d. Question can I color the gray no bleach but I use developer? How can I correct bunching? After I colored my hair I experienced bunching and had it repaired. Then I went swimming in the ocean for salt water locking and my ends bunches again!! How can I prevent and avoid bunching? How will this impact my locs formation? Thanks
Yes, you can color the grays but because your locs are still forming, you must bundle when coloring, protective style at the beach, etc. This is how I color newer locs th-cam.com/video/5nJBF2qpnBE/w-d-xo.html
In my last live, I showed how to fix bunching but will be doing another video on that. Also, watch the protective style video. That gives a lot of info on how to avoid bunching as well.
Just started watching your channel & I'm just blown away with the knowledge you have I've never knew that it's three parts to the hair this was the first I've ever heard of that! I have low density fine hair and I never knew that it meant I was missing the inner layer. It made so much sense the way you broke it down. I'm really excited about starting my siserlock journey! I'm happy I found your channel your passion for what you do shines through, I had to subscribe! Quick question where are you located?
Welcome aboard and thank you 😍🥰 I am in Snellville, GA
I have fine hair and I’ve always been told never get locs your is too nice your hair is too soft. This annoys me so much! I love this informative video and im already to get locs and just wanted to do some research and you answered all my questions.
Aw, thanks Loves!
Thank you !! I literally took all of your points to heart . I took my extensions out because I have low density fine hair my hair is thin in the extensions were big and bulky lol . So now I’m interlocking my natural microlocs I love them already.
Awesome! Glad you're enjoying them

Great information for Sisters with hair like this (me)! Love it...thank you so much!
You are so welcome!
Great video! I'm 63, and and have been loced for 23 years. My hair is becoming thinner as I age. I also have a lot of grey. I have been using henna and indigo for years to cover it. I know that henna is very drying so I always deeply moisturize after a henna application. Do you think the henna can be contributing to my thinning?
I don't think so but I don't know much about henna either.
I never add comments but I just have to say love love your information bless you my sister.
Aww, thank you🥰
TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRIE…..,I CANT SAY IT ENOUGH. T
👍🏾
This video provides a wealth of information! Thanks soooo much! I actually came looking for info on Low porosity hair, since I am in the fact finding stage, but for your very helpful vid instead. When getting Sister Locks does your hair density matter?🤔 Thanks again! 🤩😍
Yes, to some extinct. Your density determines the size locs you can get.
Best video I’ve seen! Information is great.
Thank you🥰🤗
I love your work. Will you be taking new clients for Sisterlocs installation soon?
Thank you! Yes, I am only taking installs but not maintaining them. I tag team on the installs and then pass you on to one of my trusted colleagues to maintain your hair. You can book a consultation on my website when you're ready and we'll go from there.
The video have been looking for👍
Awesome helpful information...Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Question about the loc extensions. You mentioned not to do it because your hair will not be use to the extra weight. What if you already have locs and cut them off and replaced them with extensions. Technically, wouldn't your hair be used to the weight at that point?
Love your energy…
Great video ! Thanks ❤️
You are so welcome!
It's official im on board with my sister locs January 21, 2023 and thanks to you and your great knowledge I'm ready for this blessed journey. God bless you & family .❤️
Thank you so much for taking the time to provide this information. I have been searching high and low on YT and you summarized everything in one video!! I plan on installing my own medium-sized microlocs due to my low hair density. I do have a question though.. I know you advised 2 strand twist (which is the method I am going to use), I was wondering if I could start off with braids at the root and then the 2 strands? I ask because I am not sure if my hair will be able to hold the the twist without a braid as the base. However if starting with the braid will damage the integrity of the loc later on as it matures then I will definitely not go that route. Please help😫
@empress2024 yes, you can start the two strand twist with a braid. You can braid about an inch and then twist the rest.
@@EnToiBeauty I appreciate you sis! Blessings😊
Very informative, thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great info, very informative....
Thank you!
Thank you for watching😊
Very valuable information. Thank you for sharing sis. Much love from Zimbabwe💞
Thank you🥰
It was very helpful, thank You, & depressing all at once... My goodness I really been researching, your information was Real!!! I just want my locs to turn out right..😩. My hair breaks with regular braids and comes out in bulk w weaves ... I just want bulk some kinda way...( No wigs)
Yeah, unfortunately if you have fine, low density hair, bulk doesn't exist
Thank you! Such helpful information 😊
You're so welcome!
Great minds think a like! Just came across your videos. Awesome!
Awesome! Thank you!
I’m so glad you said no extension 😂😂😂😂😂😂people hate when I say that😂😂😂😂
Girl! I don't even offer them
Now this video was very helpful for me. I am considering putting my micro locs in myself. Love your country accent.
Great video !
Sister!!!
Thank you Much for this presentation 🙏 🙌 😊
much appreciated. you have answered all my. most need answers. Blessings
You are so welcome
Thank you, thank you, I really needed this information, my question is: I had my friend do 2 strand twist on my med-fine density hair, and she put in human hair extension braided from the root and two strand twist the rest. it's scalpy and thin on the sides which are my thinning areas, with your excellent knowledge do you know how long it will take to fill out, or to actually start locking. haha, I just heard you say dont add extensions, oh gosh, I already did. again my hair isn't as thin as your clients, but I can see my scalp.
It usually take about 2 years for the braided pattern to go away and for hair to completely loc
