    Hi! This is probably thee best installation video I've ever seen for diy microlocs. Funny, I just got this mirror in the mail to practice braiding/flat twisting. I just combed my microlocs out after having 3 locticians. I wasn't satisfied with any. This video & seeing that this mirror works for you makes me feel like if I loc again, I'm doing it myself. Beautiful job, subbed & followed on ig ❤

    I’ve started I’ve redone the same part of my hair 4 times because I just don’t like it, and now I’m starting to realise my parts are still too big but it’s very hard to tell, did you notice your twists changing size while they were locking? I don’t know if the size of the twist I’m seeing now ( not when I’m tugging on it, because it looks one size when I’m stretching it out by holding it and then another when I let it go it shrinks up and puffs out)will be the size of the formed loc. but I do worry about going smaller because of tension and weight, I don’t wanna be dealing with breakage or anything

    Hey love! I’ve been studying your videos and I’m ready to start my journey. Just a question about the Murray’s Loc Lock vs the Loc N Gel. Which do I use to start my locs? Does it matter? How do you use? Just a little on your hand as you twist? At the scalp? I’m a little lost on the how there. Also once I two strand twist and interlock. I’m assuming I should just be wearing a bonnet nightly and not washing or manipulating for a month. Idk when is the right time to touch/style.

    • @queentyquana
      @queentyquana  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      hi beautiful, congratulations on starting your journey!! i’d suggest using the murray’s loc gel or something similar to that consistency for your twists. i just used a little as i was twisting down just to give the twist a little hold. i didn’t put any on my scalp.
      yes, wear your bonnet nightly and i waited 4 weeks before washing with shampoo but i didn’t spritz my hair daily. try not to manipula your hair a lot especially while it is wet because this will cause your twists to unravel.

    Hi. I love your micro locks. I’m ready to start the journey as well but I don’t have the patience. I like how you were able to do it in parts and also at your convenience using the 2 strand method. After twisting the hair in two, do you do anything to it, or does it naturally lock itself over time.
