    I rarely comment on TH-cam but I think it's the time for me to say something.. I want to thank you for everything you do for all stylists out there. Am a professional loctician from Uganda and I use your videos to teach my students about styling and hair tips. Thank you so much and please never stop what you are doing. Some people may not tell you but you are doing a great job for many people out there!

    Idk why, but straight men that can THROW DOWN in the kitchen or do hair are sexy commodities to me! You did the dern thing on his hair! The locks on your head are just as beautiful! Def thanks for the tutorial! It makes sense now why the Loc smith method unraveled on my locs (I’m 2 months in via 2 strand twists), so I’ll be giving this a try. I can only hope mine look as neat, moisturized, and healthy as yours one day 💃🏾🥰

    Okay party people! I just did this method to my own hair. I’m 2 months in + started with 2 stands (for length retention), and this method is sooooo much better than loc smithing! It took well over 16 hours, but it’s b/c I did root to tip….and I KNOW this won’t unravel! 😂
    From what I researched, it can take 2 years for locs to fully mature from 2 strand twists, but this method proves that WRONG! Thank you a TON for this tutorial b/c you helped expedite a year + of anticipation! 😂 I’m def subscribing b/c you’ve peaked my curiosity 😭💃🏿🥰 Thank you for educating us! I’m so glad I stumbled across this vid ❤❤❤❤

    Martin please share on your products: spray, essential oils and gel you use for twisting. I have noticed that the gel I use from Pakistan shops create too much build-up of white substance on the locks. And the spray I use create dandruff for my clients.
