Hey girl, can you do a video on naturally thin hair, I haven’t loc’d my hair yet and I’ve been considering it. However to achieve the size she has (pencil size) I would only be able to do about 15 locs as my hair strands are thin and my hair it self isn’t thick either.
I'm a teacher with locs, 5 years in. Thick and disrespectful! I have a Master's in Early Childhood Education..went on every interview with my beautiful locs. Every student I've ever taught or come across has been in love with my hair and say they wish theirs was like mine. Fuck "professionalism" it's a made up construct!🤟🏽😝
💯‼️
I'm a teacher too w/masters in the same field! My students love my hair too!!
I just got my diploma in Early Childhood education and have worn my locs for interviews and placements. Yeesssss to representing the way we are!
OMG. All you professional Queens and Kings got me screaming with joy over here. I'll be doing a video dedicated just for all my professional subscribers
I’m a RN. I finished my last semester of nursing school with them and got two jobs in my career with them. I’ll be two years in June. These locs ain’t going anywhere.
Welcome to the world of nursing! #classof2020 #icunurse
Happy Nurses Week! I wear my locs, my head wraps, whatever I want, and my patients love them and me.
Wait. People still saying locs unprofessional in the year of our Lord 2021? 😒. I've had my 4th (and last) set of locs for almost 3 years. I'm Licensed Clinical Social Worker and work for local government. I started my first set of locs 20 years ago and I've always had "professional" jobs. I even rock headwraps.... Never had an issue. People really need to get it together..
S/N... I remember growing up it was our own Caribbean people that sometimes had theeeee worst things to say abt locs...🤦🏾♀️smh!!
Great job as always Yannie!! Her locs are beautiful and thickalicious!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker at the VA as well and I wear my Locs
I am a PhD psychologist, the lead school psychologist for a school district in NC. I've been loc'd since 2003.
Wow I am 10 months in my loc journey and my parents say it's not professional. I am graduating in the fall I'm also studying Psychology
👏
@@bynes2674 I am a professional. I am a Clinical Social Worker at the VA and I am nearly 6 years Loc’d
Thank you for this.🖤🖤🖤
@@bynes2674 This question is not related to the video but on a scale from 1-10 how
hard was it studying and understanding psychology (1 being easy and 10 being hard)
I'm a produce clerk at a grocery store. They hired me with my locks and been at this job for 9.5 years. I have been on my lock journey since 2008. Bamm!
Mechanical engineer here...working for a German company. I was 2 years into my free-form journey when I interviewed. #nattylife
I am a teacher , I got hired with locs. I've been growing my locs for almost 5years ✨👸🏾
That's what I'm talking about
I’ve been loced since 1999. I’ve earned 2 degrees, been a teacher and am now in k8 administration.
My locs aren’t going anywhere and they haven’t prevented me from succeeding in anything.
I am a Bus Operator been driving professionally since 2003 ( School bus, Tour bus, Public bus ). I am also a certified Para Professional Mental Health Worker. I been rocking my locs 3 yrs and 7 mos and still going strong. Thank you Yannie for your knowledge on loc's.
P.S. I was a little embarrassed to post my profession after seeing all the doctors, nurses, teachers and engineers 😂 but I had to lift myself on up because I work hard and good at what I do❤.
Well done, you are awesome. Love what you do 💜.
Nvr be embarrassed abt your profession....it's bc of you that we/our kids/church groups and etc. can get from point A to point B and back again.
Do be… your job as your don’t matter what it is… Proud of you for what your are doing… but yes my friend asked me was I cutting my hair when I got into real estate.
Proud janitor and even more proud of my 8yr old disrespectful locs. Love it love it
Never had an issue getting a job. Costume designer. Grew locs from 1987. I'm tall. They reached below my knees, I cut a foot and half from my length, and my locs grew back like it was possessed. I freed them after 28 years, my hair is always natural. New set of locs in place and I'm excited for this new journey. Bliss and Blessings to all. ❤
I’m an attorney, I’ve had locs for 1.5 years and have no intention of getting rid of them anytime soon. ♥️
I am in corporate America and i am an executive manager and have been in my position for over 11 years. I am 2.5 years loc’d and no one says anything about my hair. I actually have gotten a lot of compliments. I am also the only black person in management. So there you go. I am also educated with a MS degree so again we can be educated and professional with locs. I have 152 locs currently. I started with 190. I would love to get to about 120 locs. Another great video Yannie!!! We just love you sis.
Da
8years loc'd and I'm an Electronic Technician. Had mad new growth during the interview.....now I'm a tech2.
Big up to all the professionals with locs! I have had quite a few locced professional friends over the years. I'm only 4 years in my journey, but was often told that I'm a rasta at heart. Rastas (with their PhDs) have mentored me for years, no decades!
How could I forget! My daughter is "a doctor with locs"!
🙌🏾🙌🏾 LOCD Professionals! Interpreter here☝🏾. THANK YOU YANNIE😍
Dr. Moore checking in here. I am a pharmacist and have been growing my locs for 8 months.
I have locs and I am an ICU nurse, but I wear hijab so I'm not sure if I count here. I used to worry I wouldn't get a job either but your potential and desire to serve will outshine everything!
Yes you count. It means you're amazing TWICE. ;)

Political Strategist - Been growing my gold locks for 12 years .
Niceeeeee. Love it
I'm a mental health professional who works with neurodivergent children and I've been growing my locs since March of 2020. Initially, I was sensitive about my hair but, when a kiddo in one of the groups I work with saw my hair, he shouted joyfully that we were twinsies. That moment showed me that representation in professional settings truly matters. And, because of that, these locs ain't going nowhere!
Been locced for 10 years +. I am a psychologist and I live in England. I have always worked clinically and I have only ever had positive comments about my hair. Yannie one day I shall come all the way over there for you to bless this beautiful crown of mine! Love your beautiful hair Kings and Queens, it's your God given crowning glory !!
I've been on my loc journey for 15months. I'm a PreK Teacher .

I am an wireless communications engineer, I have been growing my hair for 19 years and have been in the industry for 27 years.
I been wearing my locs for 20 years. I am recently retired, I worked as administrative assistant at a university (I was the only African American in my department). Prior to starting my locs my hair was past my shoulders and I hated spending hours at the beauty shop every week to maintain "the look". I wore my locs proudly.
Believe it or not I got the most grief for African American sisters. Many sisters would said to me on campus "I want to start locs, but I dont think my department would allow it".
I cut my locs last year due to my length (my locs were past my thighs) my kids begged me not to cut my hair, they said it was my "brand". At present my locs have grown to shoulder length. My dude said I look younger with shorted hair. I love my locs and will never stop were them.
a male Clinical Social worker and I started my loc journey 2 years ago.
Her hair is gorgeous.. I love thicccc locs
Hey Yannie! I am a loc’d Ophthalmic Tech (Retinal Disease) and a Substitute Paraprofessional (NYCDOE D75) loc’d 11 years and YES got those opportunities with locs as well as wrapped in fabric from the motherland 👑👑
I am a nurse and I have been loc'd for 11yrs🤗 very professional
I had a government contracting job with my locks where I present it every Monday in front of many people virtual and live orientation. And now I work in the health field as a clinical technician and I still have my locks. I am able to help care for the patients who have locks because others don’t know what to do with their hair. I help patients feel loved as I tend to their hair. I have a skill that no one else has at my job and that is the ability to re-twist locks. The patients feel so much better when their hair is done
I work at Walmart and I have locs for 8 years.
I'm a graphic designer working in a corporate office and the ONLY black person here. I started this job one month after I started my locs and now I'm still here and almost 16 months loc'd.
FEMA Emergency Planner..from Miami with locks. Much love & respect Yanni.
I am a nurse (for 3 years now) and I went through nursing school with my locs and was hired as a nurse with my locs. I refuse to allow anyone to tell me that my locs are unprofessional regardless if they’re retwisted or not, they are beautiful and luscious!
I am a Veterinary Technician and have been on my Loc Journey since 2002. There were a few years I also worked as a Teachers Assistant in Pre-K. With some of the kids my hair was a way to get them to embrace their new environment and gain their trust in me. Out of curiosity they would stare at my Locs, some would want to touch it some would not. I would remind them that is always ok to ask questions, that is a way to get to know the world and people around you!
Thank you Yannie, for breaking it down. Due to illness I started with thin Locs. Last year I had to combine half of the. There are doing much better now. And just you said I just let the new growth get long enough to wrap around the base/root. 🙏✌💜
Peace Yanni! I've been locd since '99 and a RN since '06. I wear my locs proudly and wrap my crown while on the job! Love your channel! Bless up💜

I’m the Planning and Neighborhood Services Director for a municipality in NC. I hold a Doctorates degree in Public Administration . I’ve had locs off and on for 8 years, this go round since 2020. I am the first African American to hold the position and was afraid to keep my locs due to my professional position, reasons why I kept cutting them off. After a while, I stopped worrying about what others think, because I’ve always loved my locs and that’s all that matters.
I'm in Law enforcement and my beautiful Queen (My Wife) is a RN. We are both locd. No issues or negative treatment, we both get a lot of positive feedback.
