Loticians should explain that retwists do not make the hair loc. They simply make it neat and create a uniform look. Lack of combing and the natural matting process makes it loc.
Budding is normal- you don't have to control the loc - they are suppose to bud and swell - please don't drink this kool-aid.. she doesn't know what she's talking about
Either way will give the same results. However, if you choose not to control the swell from the loose coil, it will take longer to form. Hence the reason for controlling the bud
Controlling the budding literally defeats the purpose of locs. Budding means it’s tangling. Budding gives the loc it’s eventual thickness. This is just over maintenance.
As others have implied, I feel like combing through more than the new growth would work against the process. If it was bunching, maybe I would understand, but from what I understand, budding is good for locs
Na whatever my hair wanna do naturally I love. Give me all the budding and whatever comes naturally. I don’t enjoy my locs for an aesthetic because all of ours lay and flourish so differently which makes everyone’s journey so beautiful. We just need water fr fr and here and there a nice oil. Focus on scalp care , re twist when you please and let them breathe and be patient
Thank you and other previous comments for this causeeeeee I’m right here was about to freak myself out like I know I ain’t cut out those (horrible fake human hair) extensions 6mths ago to start right with my own hair and now 6mths this other stylists been doing my hair wrong too lol I was about to cry!!! Cause mine swelling too
@@jecarreydangerfield459 I feel you. I did my 18-year-olds hair six months ago and that thick part is bothering both of us. I don’t Want him going out looking crazy.
My favorite part about locs, even before i started when i used to do 2 strand twists regularly, is the frizz. I love the frizz, i love the "wild" look it gets over time.
It's gone take longer to loc now😂😂 Smh 🤦 Mine locked so fast I didn't realize that it started to lock. I had to hurry up and take out my 2 strand before they locked together. 😂😂. Leave the hair alone it will lock. Combing out buds only hurts the progress and prolongs the process 😂😂😂
Foolishness! Locs are supposed to Bud and it's a good sign. Retwisting with a Butter aswell 🤦🏾♀️ Folks better learn how to maintain their own Locs if you value your hair/locs.
They do this so they can keep coming back for retwist because most people starting out aren’t educated on locs. Most “hairstylists”/“locticians” in America are scammers they don’t really care about your loc journey they just want to make sure they have a consistent client to pay them so they elongate the process
I'm only 2 months in and I have that budding going on already. I thought something was wrong when I got my first shampoo and retwist at 1 month. It was driving me crazy so I did them over again and they're back! I thought it was due to the excess humidity in the air since we've had a lot of rain lately so I've decided to stop fighting it 😅😅 I'll be patient and wait since I now see that it is normal 😅
Why would you wanna stop budding? I’m budding right now and I’m so in love with my hair. I love the frizziness of my hair. You did a great job but this is my favorite stage in the loc process
I thought budding was a good sign that your locs are starting to lock up at least thats what all the beauticians in my family say so what is she talking about 😂😂😂
TH-cam brought me back here. Lol. I re-twisted my son’s hair two days ago and the budding almost made me go crazy. You make the comb twist look so easy.
The budding is natural and will later maintain itself as the loc mature, doing what she does could cause build up, the budding phase is just the hair tangling around each other and expanding etc I wouldn’t mess with it too much
Why would people avoid budding when that's part of the process? I hate that social media has made people think they have to look perfect all the time. If someone has that type of mentality then they probably shouldn't get locs, that's just not what it's about. They'll be bald headed quick.
Misinformation. Lmao. A retwist will not stop the budding process. The locs need to bud. That's the whole point. The locs mist bud so that the locs will get thicker and become more cylinder-shaped.
I was told not to use this much product because of build up 😅plus I’m going on the whatever my hair feels like doing to itself locs I parted them and made them the size I wanted after that I really haven’t done much else and it seems to be working well for me 🥰
Yes it Will. I made that mistake. Trust me never again. Just let your crown grow and do it's thing. Locs have to Budd in order to loc. I'm on my third set of locs and i know that over twisting and not letting the budding alone was a huge mistake.
I'm over 1 year locd myself. Wait, maybe she meant retwisting controls the new growth instead? Budding is a part of the loc process. If no budding then it's not locd? I believe. 🤔
So much product will be stuck in this poor person's hair. Also, why would you avoid the budding? It's beautiful and healthy. Please guys, learn to do your own locs. Just maintain it yourself if you can because a lot of these locticians will mess you up. You learn so much about your hair that way, and get better over time. Especially if you aren't looking for a clean cut, uniform look
@@mai-linhmainor5965I noticed that, I guess because when I started my journey it was budding and swelling and I never palm roll them to be more smooth and Less bulky. I kind of let it form on its own. So now I have bulky locs that don’t look refine. This is 2 years now so I guess it can’t be fixed
I literally did this clipped down blow dired it didn’t take the clips out until the next day then blow fired again and by the time my son cam home it was a mess
Don't do that. Hell the Shea butter is to much. U don't want to use to much product it causes build up in the locs. Light gel to retwist. Or better yet oil and water then clip and under the dryer it until completely dry it Will hold! A protective style will make the retwist last longer. 3 years loc'ed this August. You'll thank me later. I'll say you're welcome now 🙂 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤
She doesn't know what she's doing or talking about if anybody in here has or wants locs don't do this your locs don't need to look pretty they are supposed to look ratchet.
I thought I had to start over because I have crazy budding while everybody else dreads didn’t, Thanks to this video now I know. But I have question does haveing short dreads with budding mean more thicker dreads? while more dreads without budding means more dreads count in your hair? And lastly bunch of dreads in your head with budding mean thick and lot of dread count? If anybody knows what I mean?
Budding is natural! 'Controlling the bud' is bad! She's combing out part of the loc and retwisting it. There is nothing I repeat NOTHING you can do about Budding. I'm over 2 years in and I still have buds. They don't look like it over Time because it evens out. Different parts of the loc bud at different Times they eventually all whine up the same size. But after about 1 month after a retwist I get new buds. Doing this hurts the locking process and prolongs it as well. Those buds are just gonna keep coming back. If he keeps letting her do this to his head they never gone loc!
Lol she gone play in it too 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Locs are supposed to bud. Your locs will 1 never loc doing this or 2 gone thin and fall out down the line. 😂😂 option 1 is most likely.
After installing the coils, retwists should be palm rolled so the hair can start being trained to wrap around in a cylinder shape. Budding is literally the beginning phase of a mature loc- it's forming tangles. Combing it through like you did put him back at square one.
I’m on my 2nd set and yes this is the proper way to cultivate beautiful locs. These stylists are retired on the job!! Everyone doesn’t want thick frizzy locs!!
😂😂😂 bro now u know good and damn well they bud because it finally locked 🔒 😂😂😂😂 If it doesn't bud it didn't lock. Combing out the bud is combining out parts of the loc 😂😂😂
I love the budding... that's what makes it full and beautiful!!!
Loticians should explain that retwists do not make the hair loc. They simply make it neat and create a uniform look. Lack of combing and the natural matting process makes it loc.
I was like🧐 Who gon check her, cause we want LOCS, not lifelong coils🙄😩
Why are we avoiding budding? That's the entire point 😂😂
Same shi I was wondering
@@KingSuperior😂
Right, it's like people going natural but being afraid of shrinkage. Embrace and be proud of what your hair does NATURALLY.
Literally...I was confused asf 😂
@@djovaynoallen2124rt
If “Show me you don’t know what you’re doing” we’re a person lol
Shea butter is going to get trapped in the loc... no ma'am!!! 🙅♀️🙅♀️🙅♀️

thank you.. cuz im over here like wtf???
Exactly and he's going to have a build-up from her using the Shea butter loc mess on his hair.
That’s never gonna loc lol

Yes; oil the scalp...not the lock
The Shea butter gave me goosebumps as someone that has a dandruff problem

How long does budding and frize last? I jus got my first interlock I started with 2 strand twists
AVOID BUDDING!!! ??? 😮
I was excited looking at mine in the mirror budding ❤ like embrace the journey
I hated the budding at first, but honestly i can say that period i grew to be appreciate the uniqueness of my locs, dont skip the process
My favorite part about locs, even before i started when i used to do 2 strand twists regularly, is the frizz. I love the frizz, i love the "wild" look it gets over time.
I was happy when my hair started budding. That is the whole purpose of the starter loc phase. Why are you combining it out?
It's gone take longer to loc now😂😂
Smh 🤦
Mine locked so fast I didn't realize that it started to lock. I had to hurry up and take out my 2 strand before they locked together. 😂😂. Leave the hair alone it will lock. Combing out buds only hurts the progress and prolongs the process 😂😂😂
Everybody shouldn't be doing loc maintenance...no ma'am no thank you 😢
Is this not the idea of loc, for it to bud, why comb it out??
This poor person is going to have a ton of buildup and very skinny locs
Your hair has to bud to loc up AND WHAT THE HELL IS ALL THAT PRODUCT😭
Oh no !! Budding is part of the process … leave my budding alone 😆
Foolishness!
Locs are supposed to Bud and it's a good sign.
Retwisting with a Butter aswell 🤦🏾♀️
Folks better learn how to maintain their own Locs if you value your hair/locs.
Yes!!! Lord ❤😂😂
I ditched the salon and started maintaining my own locs and lemme tell you it was a very good decision!
Really you just palmrolled that . The comb at the roots made a huge lump . Yall gotta stop playing
🤣
Too much gunk😮
??? The budding 'IS' the process.
It’s supposed to swell and frizz
You want budding
I love when mines bud I really just like getting my parts when getting a retwist and keep the budding look
This is called build up and lint excess. 😢
Why are u trying to control the budding its apart of the loccing process ur just setting him back

Do not comb out buds!
@@daijourcalloway998its a personal choice, yea it will take longer, but some people prefer the look of shrunken buds, me being one
It's supposed to bud, silly goose 🦆🤪

Why would you wanna stop budding? I’m budding right now and I’m so in love with my hair. I love the frizziness of my hair. You did a great job but this is my favorite stage in the loc process

Yea she tripping
Locs are supposed to bud, it’s literally apart of the journey
That sectioning 🔥
My budding is annoying because the root of my starter locs good but the end of the starter locs keep unraveling and swelling up
Unraveling is completely different from budding.
Unraveling has nothing to do with your hair budding
Ummmmm, no
I think you're doing it WRONG !😳
Can you do a two strand twist starter loc retwist video too?
A retwist is a retwist. Technique would be the same.
I was about to say, I love it when my locs bud up lol
Looks great ❤

Natural shine doesn't come from products.
That’s what got me in like it’s not a natural shine if you just added a product to it 🧐🥴
Misinformation. Lmao.

Yes, i just use water (avoid tap water if you can, because of hard water) and oil every few days
Why/How TF would you avoid budding?????? 😂😂😂😂
That’s what she said.
That technique destroyed the look of my locks
she doesn't know what she's talking
Full video please😊
What product are you using
I saw some flakes inthere 😮
Same.
😐
they dont want locs, they want curls.
Nah the want locs n I think u mean coils not curls
I want mine to swell
Not sure but I love a fresh retwist but I love my frizzy ends
This new stuff isn't loca it's curls
I want repair where can found u
Pls whats the name of the cream u do rub on it
If you maintain the bud will ur locs stay skinny ?
Yes it Will. I made that mistake. Trust me never again. Just let your crown grow and do it's thing. Locs have to Budd in order to loc. I'm on my third set of locs and i know that over twisting and not letting the budding alone was a huge mistake.
