3 Year DIY Microloc Lociversary Update + Retightening My Last Section!
Hi Beauties! I cannot believe it has been over 3 years since I started this journey. Thank you so much for growing and sharing with me. Today I'm reviewing the last few years of my journey and sharing things I enjoyed and some things I'd change... while retightening the last section of my hair. We will even take a look at what my hair looked like immediately before starting this loc journey. Thank you for coming along on this journey with me! I'm sending you and your lovely locs love!

    How do you keep your ends loose ? I keep getting little balls or buds at the end of mine. My locs are about the same size as yours, I probably have 800 or more locs. Also, how do you deal with fluff or buildup in the locs ?

    • @the4ceer806
      @the4ceer806 Před 7 měsíci

      That's an amazing point. Lint has not been an issue for me. But I also only use 1 or 2 products in my locs and sparingly. I might see a small piece here and there, but it's rare. I think you are onto something!

    New subscriber! I love your hair and I am so new to my Micro Locs. I just established them myself in May of this year. I like your idea of harvesting your own hair to use as extensions to repair, what a great idea! However, I don’t know how to use that tool in the proper manner to get my Extension onto a shorter Loc. Whenever I try to do that back-and-forth motion, mine just get tangled and I get frustrated concerned about breaking hairs in my Locs. Do you have a video showing close-up how you’re using that tool? Thanks for your great informative videos!

    Is your hair fully locked? I noticed your hair has not gotten thicker over time. Is this because you keep it stretched?

    • @the4ceer806
      @the4ceer806 Před 10 měsíci

      Hi lovely with the gorgeous smile! Yes my locs have not swelled much at all. I do believe that's because I keep them stretched. In the early stages I didn't stretch them as much and a few locs began swelling. Trying to retighten those locs were difficult because they were wider than the root of my loc, so pulling the loc through the root was causing tension. I actually picked out those locs and re-installed them.
