I have the same tool you have and several more (like 5)... However I found after experimenting. A plastic yarn needle cut to 3cm and rounded off at the end was easiest... That meant I didn't catch the other hair, those other tools are too long they catch the other hair. A yarn needle is like ÂŁ2 once you cut it to 3cm you burn the end a little with a lighter, roll it with your fingers and then use a nail file to smooth it out, take literally 5 mins and once done it so much better, I was literally breezing through my hair.
Thank you! I will definitely try that
Same here! I have 4 metal tools that I bought but none of them work better than my modified plastic yarn needle!
@@michellee2221 thatâs the tool Queen Eleem used on her diy micro locs too
Iâm going to use the yarn needle , and cut it off, and burn the ends,,I want to do sisterlocks..
It looks good, good job! I have sisterlocks, micro/sister âlocsâ are a great hair choice. Iâm seeing a lot of people are using the interlocking method, itâs very clever. I just want to say welcome to the loc family! đ Them locs are gorgeous.
Thank you so muchâ€ïž
BeYoutifully Natural Youâre welcome.
You are doing a great job with your hair! It is beautiful. Keep up the good workđ
Thank you hun!â€ïž
Your starter locs are beautiful! I would love to see how the retwisted roots hold up. If it actually works for you then I'm totally adopting this method. The only thing is I really hate to use product in my locs, 'cos I hate the buildup that happens with that. Please do a follow up video so we can see how the twists help up after 4-6 weeks. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much! Iâm doing a one month loc update soon and I will show how it looks! Itâs been 3 weeks and itâs looking good to me! My hair just needs to be washed cause my scalp flakes up fast.
Retwist then interlock for a longer lasting retightening.
Thanks! I will have to try that!
Your locs look great! Thereâs another CZcamsr who retwists her microlocs as well. Alicia James. Her locs have held up for a well with that method.
Thank youâ€ïž I absolutely love her! She inspired me to retwist!
It looks really good with the twist method. I have similar hair texture and I am going to try this method too. I microloc'd my hair over the weekend and excited about the journey. I agree, we all have different textures of hair and must do what seems to work for our hair type. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful... and very neat.
Thank you so much beautiful đ„°â€ïž
@@beyoutifullynatural9451 My pleasure Luvđ
Love it!

It looks greatđ€
Thank you!
You did a great job retwisting all the way down your locâs. If you go ahead and interlock each of your locâs you will not have to do it as often as you will, if you only re-twist. As soon as your hair gets wet at the root, the re-twisting will undo itself, but if you interlock it as well it should stay until your new growth needs to be retightened again.
Thanks for the tips!
Love the intro dear
Thank you baby
You did a great job and your hair looks beautiful! Iâve had the same experience with interlocking and was considering retwisting. You gave a very good demonstration. Thanks for sharing. What was in your spray bottle?
Thank you so much for watchingâ€ïž there is jojoba oil, tea tree, black castor oil and this other oil that has a combination of oils in it
i love your locs size!
Thank you!â€ïž

Too many rules in this loc journey like natural hair. I interlock my hair 3 days after installing them. There's no difference when you interlock same day or 6 weeks.. Sisterlocs interlock on installation day, so do some microloc. As long as we care for our hair forget everything else.
I absolutely agreeđŻđŻ

Does retwisting last for microloc two strands on 4a/4b/3c hair? Is it safe?
So far for me itâs lasting and stays twisted until I wash. I believe itâs safe but Iâm not a loctician so I donât want to give incorrect information. Itâs ideal to interlock smaller locs because it locs faster and lasts longer. Iâm only 10 months in so idk how fast it will loc with retwisting. Thank you for watchingâ€ïž Are you already locâd or thinking about it?
@@beyoutifullynatural9451 thank you for responding. I am currently installing my microlocs. It's taking me a bit. My hair is long and thick. I have one section left. I am doing the front left side throughout today and I am determined to finish as this is the beginning of week 3 and I'm tired. My hair ranges from 22-26 inches, most of what I've completed seems to have shrunken, but it's still falling about 4-5 inches past my chin/shoulders. I am worried about interlocking, I've tried sampling a few dozen in the beginning a few in other places, but I'm worried it's just too much for me. I do have thick, somewhat high density hair, but because it's still so soft, I feel like that would qualify it as fine, but it still looks super thick after 3/4s of my install. I absolutely love it, but I've been feeling scared about maintenance. Many people say 2 and 3 pt isn't safe, but the 4pt seems just too tight for my hair. Soon as I realized this I just stopped. I mostly after the first section, literally only have 2 strand twists, many braided at the ends, nothing at the roots currently. I'm trying to decide what to do when I finish the last section, hopefully today since it's been almost 3 weeks since I started my install and already have about a half inch almost of new growth, I want it to be neat but I'm worried if twisting will work since it's needs to be neatened and 3 weeks in. I don't want weak have but interlocking seems so rough, u want to do the 2 or 3 point but I just want my hair to be neat and healthy. I cut off a tiny nape area loc in the back when I first started because I did the whole thing interlocked and it was just too tight and stressed my scalp so bad. I want to know if 2 or 3 pt is softer and lower and okay or if retwisting is fine, I'll be finished with the last front left section today and just want the safest, softest, neatest option. I have multiple textured hair throughout, but I mostly think it's 4a, some 4b, and 3c in much of my nape/lower back hair and have been natural for 12 years this June 11th, I want to know since you have long hair too if retwisting is a good alternative option and if it will last and if my tiny microlocs, which are mostly either 3/8s or 1/4 of an inch throughout my whole head. Just need some more advice. I had a consultation, and learned so much which inspired me that I could do it myself and I've always been so gentle with my hair, hence I've managed to do it myself for almost 12 years and grew it to waist length. Thank you for any clarity or encouragement you can share. đ€â€ïž
@@AuthenticTruthSeeker I feel the same about my hair! And I when I interlocked, I felt like it was too rough on my hair and it seemed more damaging than retwisting honestly. Thatâs why I donât interlock because even though my hair is thick, itâs still soft and fine in some parts. I think retwisting is a great alternative. It will take longer to loc but itâs healthier on the hair in my opinion. And retwisting is easier to maintain yourself. I see lots of other ladies retwisting their micro locs too and the only âbadâ thing I hear is that it doesnât last long but that is okay for me. I believe it will loc the same way traditional locs would. If you are still unsure, you can just retwist for now and interlock later if you decide to. I retwisted the first 4 months, retied once, then started retwisting again. Only you know whatâs best for your hair. Some people may say donât retwist small locs but interlocking can be too rough especially if youâre tender headed like me. I hope that helpedâ€ïž in my last video I posted, I talked about why I choose to retwist instead of interlock
@@beyoutifullynatural9451 thank you so much! I am just going to focus on finishing today and just retwist for now. â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
