I am a micro locs loctician in Orlando Florida, and so far your I like your method of micro locs Extensions the best. Because you are doing the feedin method which alleviates a lot of the tension from the root of the client's hair ❤❤
💯 It looks waaay better and more comfortable too!
Thank you so much! Your kind words mean allot to me! I appreciate you! 🥰♥️
This is absolutely beautiful. Plz excuse my ignorance but just to be clear , she will not be taking this down ? & the extensions are able to stay in while her hair locs ???
Thank you! No ignorance at all ☺️ all questions welcomed! But yes… her hair will loc with this hair
@@ShardelHaden what’s the price range for this ?
You just saved me 1300 dollars thank you. I’m doing my own!!
Good luck that’s a long time
How did they turn out? It’s been 10 months and I’m just curious how they turned out.
@@tabbylivvy can I add a photo? I would love to show them. I think they turned out great; however, I will suggest being aware of what type of hair you will use. I didn’t use the type of hair she did but I used the bulk human hair that you actually do locs with and while it turned out cute and as I wanted them. It’s now a year later and as my hair has grown and been washed over and over, some of the hair has slipped out but it’s okay because I plan to remove the hair as my hair grows out.
@@lifeinchrist8061 That’s awesome that you attempted it and was happy with the results. We learn as we grow, so kudos to you for making that decision to try it. Can’t add a picture here. Was thinking you uploaded a video on your channel.

Im ready to take me a flight to Orlando just for this style
Hi!!! First I love your page! I have a question. So I recently did my own microlocs extensions almost a month ago and my extensions are starting to look a little weird. The start of where I inserted extensions lookings bulky compared to my roots,if that makes sense. Is there a way to fix it without taking it out and redoing it?
Hi! Thank you so much! ♥️♥️I truly appreciate your kind words!
Yes that makes sense, so that means the hair added was probably a bit to much.. I think to be safe you might want to do it over because you don’t want to cause more weight on your scalp then you have to. That way you can prevent any thinning long-term.
I do my own hair and I'm wondering when I do these microlocs is this a permanent style? Because I wasn't considering this at first but now I want them in ❤❤❤❤
Incredible! Flawless work sis. 🎉
Thank you so much 🫶🏾🥰
How many hair pieces did you use and what kind of hair piece is it❤....I love it
Love this! I’m doing my mom’s next month so I’ve been doing my research. What’s the length of hair you purchased? Also, what’s the tool used to interlock? I hope I used the right terminology.
Wow this is really beautiful and very great job new friend 💖
Thank you!! Welcome! ☺️♥️🥰
Tysm for your video! I need some help, so once I get to the twisting portion, my twists are staying pretty skinny. I tried twisting a little looser but it’s still looking the same. Do you have any tips?
Thank you so much for watching! That may mean you need to add a little more hair when you get to that point. You want to make sure the twist is gradually getting smaller, especially after passing you natural hair.
These are beautiful. I've been braiding my hair for years, had sister locs for about 5 years and cut them (had a moment), the cost and maintenance was a bit much. So, now I want to go a little more traditional. This seems like a very good alternative. It looks like your starting off w/a small braid than going into the twist as you add in the hair, am I seeing that right? Follow up, do you twist or interlock after the initial install?
What is in the spray bottle and what product do you use after the installation?
What are reasons someone would choose crochet, at the root vs feed in for the install? What are the pros/ cons of each method?
Your work is gorgeous! I have a question, is it advise to do extensions that are the exact texture of your hair or is it okay to do a slightly curlier texture?
Hey! Thank you! Yes its okay to use a slightly curlier texture 🙂
Amazing Job Queen
TY😊
Definitely something am looking to do the fullness and length ....how much packs of hair were feed in ...and how much loc did she have at the end ?
I did not count them at the end. But I used about 4 packs
That is beautiful, did you do 5 across in each section that you parted. Thank you
Thank you! I believe so.. the number across may change according to the width of the section
Hi , I love your work so much but I have a question, is it possible to do micro loc extensions with Marley hair instead of human hair?? Money is kinda tight right now and the human hair seems like alot so I was wondering if these same results are achievable with Marley hair.
Love them!
Thank you 🥰
Hey boo im starting my loc journey and would you mind showing a close up look on how you add in the extensions?
Hey! I will do my best to get a clip of that in my next video
Good day what kinda hair was used please
Hi ave a question do I have to braid before I start twisting I am not adding anything
When extensions are added to the locs in the beginning, does it cause the locs to be thin at the root and thicker down the length as they grow out? I know I will have shrinkage so I’m wondering if I should add extensions or be patient and let them grow naturally
So the trick is to make sure you're adding the right amount so that the loc gradually gets thicker just like it would without extension. If you add too much hair to a section that is to weak to handle it, that can cause thinning.
Would you use the same technique with those who already have micro locks but want to extend?
I’m think I would need to crochet the extension to the end for a situation like this
Looks great so do you loop the hair like traditional braids ( I know these are micro locs) or feed it into your your hair. I won't these but we don't have loctitions in the town I'm in,so I'm going to try, I can do micro braids so going to try locs
I feed the hair in 😊
I'm glad I found you.
But may I ask a question.
So you start as a braid and then two strand twist ? That's just what it looks like. Please direct me. Can't afford to pay no 1100+
I do have a question? Whare are the pros and the cons on having microlocs extentions? My hair is very thin i tried to do them with just my regular hair it was hard. I was told it's easire to add extention to them for a fuller look? what is your feeling on that?
Okay, So I would say the pros are you get immediate fullness and some length. They also give you more options for styling. Cons.. I would say in the beginning some will portal slip out around the perimeter. Other than that I don't think there are any more cons. I think extensions would work great you just need to go to someone knowledgeable so that they aren't adding to much hair which can be stressful to your scalp in the long run.
Hello, your work is amazing? Do you braid all the way down or do you start with the braid and go into a twist? My sight is super bad so I couldn’t really tell!
Thank you! 😊 For these I braid the hair into the root then twist 😊
This is beautiful! ❤ I would like my hair done. Where are you located? I’m in Florida.
❤ it thanks for sharing they’re nice
Beautiful ❤ how many bundles of hair have you used? And what’s the length?
She answered all these questions, just scroll and you’ll see the answer ❤️
Great Work! Where are you located..? And is this technique great for nonslippage..?
Thank you so much! I am located in Waldorf Md ☺️
I love this. I’ve been thinking of getting mine done. Is there an advantage/ disadvantage when using extension vs when using just the clients natural hair?
Thank you! I think the best advantage with not using extensions is there isnt any hair slipping out. Also, extensions take a bit more time to do compared to just using natural hair
How many packs did you use? And where did you order it from
How long does your have have to be to get them done with extensions?
Do you braid down to where their natural hair stops, then you start to twist, or do you do a few braids then you twist?
It is dependent upon the length of the clients hair. If it is shorter I braid close to the length of their hair, if it is longer just a few braids then I twist
First let me start by saying your work is beautiful. I love love love the way you braid/loc. I live on the UK and would like start my micro lock journey. Question, What length hair did you use and how many packs of it please?
Thank you so very much! I truly appreciate your kind words! For this install I used about 4 packs of hair and it was 16 inches 😊
Lovely work
Thanks so much !
Can you purchase the right hair from a beauty supply store (not this particular brand) or does it need to ordered online?
yes you sure can. its probably located behind the counter.
Hello I love your technique quick question do u twist to the left or to the right
Thank you! To the right
Can you do this with relaxed ends and natural roots?
Yes you definitely can. Because you're end are relaxed you may have more hair sticking out until it locs up though
What type of products do you put on the locs ?
So when making the extension longer do u braid it in or twist it?
I normally twist it in if I need to add extra length towards the bottom, but I really try to add enough length from the top so that I don’t have to do that at the bottom. This way, I am lessening the chances of slippage.
Did you add mouse? What’s the spray?
I love this video neat and beautiful
Thank you so much 🥰☺️
I love this! What type of hair did you add? Human Marley? Thank you so much for sharing! 💜
Thank you so much! I use Afro kinky texture human hair for this install ♥️
What brand if u don’t mind me asking? Exy hair started to straighten out after a while
Hi if the braids were started with a regular braid at the beginning , not a knotless braid and without interlocking during installation, how would you recommend taking care of them and avoiding bulking as they mature or slipping? Thank you! Sorry that was a lot😢❤
You would probably have to use really small portions of hair to be sure that the bulking doesn't happen. I wouldn't recommend that method because it will be harder to avoid the bulkiness. Can you share some more of your thoughts on the knotless method? Maybe why that method may not be your first choice?
@@ShardelHaden I was thinking it might be a little harder to have a long lasting install on short hair😭 like an issue with letting the extensions loc because of possible slipping? Thank you for answering🥺❤️
Slippage happens no matter the install technique. It’s normal. You just put it back once it slips. It takes time for you hair to adjust to be in the style ☺️
So fye! 🔥 you got me thinking about trying these 😩
Thank youuu!!! Lol girlfriend DO IT!
Beautiful ❤
Great Job
Which hair have you used for extension!
Every install of extensions Ive posted shares the hair Ive used as well as links in the bio 😊
Hello I want to loc my hair, I was wondering is the a difference in the outcome if you twist or braid
Twist are going to be more fluffy and not so uniformed. Braids will be very uniform. Similar to sister locs
Love the technique, was so neat awesome job .. where did you get the hair .
Thank you ! I believe its mentioned in the beginning of this video.
I love how you make yours
I want my hair like this, please send me the information, I already have the canecalon🙏🙏🙏
😭I’m watching this because I’m going to attempt to do my hair. 😊
Yes! Do it!
Hi, what type of hair did you use? I looked in your description box but it’s not listed 😩
Hi! ☺️ I used the afro kinky texture hair from www.manetamedstudio.com
I’m just starting out. I have a client with really oily hair coming for an install do you recommend the two strand method or braid all the way through
Cool! So I think twist will be just fine. Maybe braiding the root down some then twisting will help with slippage.
Thank you so much for your information I'm in South Africa I haven't seen much of micro locs but I want to ask my hairstylist to do them for me.
I have a question when installing the extensions what happens do you take them out then what happens to your locs cos I want this hairstyle permanent.
Thank you ❤
Hi! Thank you so much for your comment! So the hair is intended to loc with your hair permanently. So you would not remove the hair at a later date. The key would be to add the correct amount so that the loc gradually widens as you get down to the end. Does that make sense?
@@ShardelHaden Thank you so much it makes perfect sense. My worry is one now the type of extension you use I wonder if I'll get anything closer here cos my hair texture is not thick and fuller. I'll keep checking your tutorials for more information. Once again thank you for your response 😘😘💞💞
What’s the hair that you use for the extensions?
I'm considering starting microlocs with two strand twists. Can you leave the human afro kinky hair in as your hair grows?
Yes it locs with the hair
The hair is so beautiful how long did it take if it's ok to ask
Thank you! I beiges it took about 12hrs or so. I may mention it in the video
Great work sis! I have 2 questions, could the length have been shorter with the extensions? And secondly, will she be able to take out the extensions in the long run? 🙏🏽
Thank you so much! Yes the length can be shorter. These extensions are intended to loc with her hair… however as the grow she can trim or cut the ends as she sees fit
Hi, I love your work & have been considering microlocs. I read one loctician saying the extensions eventually come out as the hair grows which sounds weird but you say the human hair extensions starts to loc with your natural hair, that makes more sense.
I’m thinking of trying this. Do you do anything to prep the extensions before using?
Rinse them with hot water. There are some videos of me doing it
How many pieces do you use for each one? Also how do you get them all the same length?
Normally two pieces. Since I’m using all the same length of extension I know the length will end up on a similar area. It’s really more practice with grabbing the hair in the same area so that the length makes sense
Sorry if my question is stupid but I thought that locsis only wish your own hair. So is she keep for evr that way? How is the maintenance. Thx
No question is stupid! ☺️ the extension hair will loc into her hair. My method of installation does not allow for the extension to be taken out. Maintenance is the same just as if there no extensions, interlocking every 4 to 8 weeks 🥰
I would like to get the extension for length. But I am concerned after the new growth comes, it will be a different size than the part with added hair? What do you think about my concerns?
So naturally, when you have locs it's smaller at the root then it gradually gets thicker. this will be the case for a set of extensions like this. You just want to be careful with the amount of hair you add to each loc. but as your hair locs it will thicken with the extension hair. I hope that makes sense... :)
Hi ! I just saw your video and I just love it I love to try out this style so can I buy the hair on Amazon.
Thank you! Yup! Just search afro kinky human hair
so basically you start it off kinda like knotless braids? also your work is amazing:)
Exactly!!! Thank you so much 🥰
You're the best of best❤
omg! 😊 Thank you so much!
Please what extension did you use?
Good day, is there anyway to have less hair added. Especially for people with thin hair wanting micros from you. How you do it is great, but on thin hair it seems it would be so full and heavy. I'd like this done but my hair is no way full like that on a regular basis. I can't handle the weight of the fullness.
Thank you for your kind words! Yes less hair can be added. The install can be tailored to your hair and needs
How many locs did she end up having?
What extensions did you use ?? Looks fabulous
Thank you 🥰🥰 www.manetamedstudio.com
