    I am 18 months Locd and had my first hair wash without braiding and banding and it felt GREAT! I have bunching and have been using the crochet method. It works!

    I instant locked all of my micro loc’s so that I wouldn’t have to worry about loc bunching or unraveling at all. My loc’s appear fully mature but are getting tighter and no shrinkage which allows me to see all of the growth after I interlock the roots.
    Your demonstration was very effective and keep up the good work!🎉

      Hey, a quick question : would you consider instantlocking your roots to retightening them ? I was wondering if it could be a good alternative to interlocking... Thank you !

      @@Malzaaaa instant locking is perfect for the installation but I prefer to interlock the new growth with a 2, 3 or 4 point rotation with the 4 being the most effective at controlling the girth of the loc. You can determine the number of rotations/tension are most comfortable for you.
      Instant locking must be done leaving an inch from the root to prevent pulling out hairs from the scalp.

    This video is giving me hope! And your hair looks amazing! I’m About to order the tool. I’m a week shy of being locked for a year. But I too noticed bunching around 9 months.
    Question: do I always go to the end of my loc when correcting the bunching? Will it not kind of unravel the ends if I still have loose ends?

    The locs are loc'sing❤ This video is so encouraging for me. I have twists interlocked. I'm 2.5 months and struggling with the frizz, shrinkage (it's been a lot compared to how it started on blow dried hair😩) and bunching. I often want to give up as it's at that awkward stage (I hate the phrase 'ugly stage').
    How long did it take for your hair to 'drop' and shrink less?

    Probably silly question but it didn’t look fully locked so wouldn’t you have been able to just unravel it and re-twist it? Or was it fully locked?

      The tool is design to “help” start the locing process. For instance when people are getting instant locs attached their natural hair isn’t locked. It is helping me to fix bunching in areas of my loc

      If you take loose and retwist you may remove the needed shed hair that helps lock your hair. Also, you will keep delaying your locking process

    Bunching is part of the locing process. The locs are wanting to mature and the bunching and swelling is part of the Journey. Those of us who have microlocs try to tame our locs into a more polished look that resembles microbraids. Thats not Bad necessarily.
