Girl that visual aid was on point. You should be a teacher.
Thank Ayanna. 🥰 Teaching...maybe later in life. Requires too much patience. Lol
This! I absolutely agree!!
FACTS!
👏🏽👏🏽she won me as a subscriber...👏🏽👏🏽
Excellent
video so well made i said to myself “so this is what the thumbs up button is meant for”
Aww how nice of you to say. 🥰
Just got my locs today! Feb 21 2024. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 the journey begins
Congratulations. Enjoy the journey, the early stages go by so fast. 💫
Same the awkward stage Is indeed awkward immq update yall
I started April 2 2024, how is your set going ?
🔒 6 months in, 1.15.24
i’m budding like crazy
This visual aide was PERFECT. I’m almost 6mo loc’d - and no amount of videos, articles, or advice from others was this clear as to what the budding and maturation process looks like.
GO OFF!!!
Aww thanks so much. I really appreciate that feedback.
Currently watching for the first time.only 1 week in ..guess I found my new loc channel 👌🏾🙏🏿
This video may be 2 years old but here I am happy that I stumbled upon this vid as my son got his starter locs today. I sent him this video so he can learn the “budding process”.
Thank you for posting this information along with visuals! Not all heroes wear capes ❤❤
Aww 🥰 glad I could help. Tell him to enjoy it. They grow so fast. I’m around bra strap length now.
3yrs
No one talks about this process enough. Thank you, this was great! I thought I was just retwisting unevenly.
Aww thank you. Budding is definitely my favorite topic when it comes to locs, such an interesting part of the locing experience.
You broke this DOWN. Just started my locs today. Thanks for this explanation. Excited for the journey.
Welcome to the loc family. The first month may test your patience but hang in there and trust the process.
Honestly, that visual aid REALLY helped me. I am 3 months into my journey and I’m budding like crazy. Thank you for this. I just have to practice some patience.
Awe thanks. Glad to hear it helped. The budding phase is so fascinating to me. I found myself looking at and feeling them every darn day.
@@MaryK. I thought it was just me. 5 weeks and I can't keep my hands out of my head, lol. I am so loving this journey now that I have some much needed info.
I went to school & passed my test to become a cosmetology instructor. And sisssss, you taught this VERY WELL👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I also started my loc journey in aug 2020 & this helped me A LOT! This is the phase I’m in right now
Aww thank Alexia. I am humbled. 🥰🥰🥰 I’m sure your locs are budding beautifully.
I just started my loc journey two weeks ago. I loved your visuals, they really helped me understand the process. Thanks so much. Excellent video!
Thank you and congratulations on starting your journey. 🌱💫
Yea, that visual aid was amazing! It made a lot of sense even with how simple you drew it.
🥰🥰🥰
I have a better understanding of the budding process now. I thought budding was the process of my starter locs shrinking and knotting over time from daily moisturizing, and as my hair shrinks it begins to form a matrix of knots internally. I didn’t take into account the interaction of the starter loc with the shed hair building the internal matrix. So thank you
Yes mam!!!! That internal matrix is exactly right. Thank you as well. 🥰🥰🥰
ThAnk you, this helps a lot. 1st video after searching for so many where I truly understand the budding process with an accurate visual.
🙌🏽🙌🏽 I'm a visual learner and this was amazing thank you lol I'm 4 months in a few days. My second retwist, she said it was budding but now I see what she means thanks to your visual aid!!
Aww thank you mam. I’m a visual learner as well, so I feel you. You’re budding now, so you are well on your way. 🥰
A few days into month 2 of my loc journey and I’m already getting budding on almost every loc 😍
That is amazing!!!! Your locs will be flourishing in no time. 🥰🥰🥰
Listen, this visual aide was PERFECT! I’m one month in and I swear there’s some budding happening already!
Awww thanks so much Shay. Congratulations on starting your journey. Yes you could very well be bidding already. 🤗
Excellent video! That visual was so dope! Personality, vibrancy, informative! Keep shining Queen!
Aww thanks so much. I appreciate that. 🥰
Absolutely great visual and video. You are a fabulous instructor. I'm 4 days into my starter locs and your video has really given me a better understanding about the journey.
Aww thanks so much. Congratulations on starting your journey. 🥰 Take lots of pictures, that starting phase goes by so fast. I sometimes miss my short loc phase.
I am!❤
I feel like I got shown the secrets to the universe lol much needed
Haha!!!!! Thanks Carlos. 💫
Btw, you are great at replying back to ALLLL of your subbies comments, questions, and/concerns, THAT truly means a lot! That's rare to find on CZcams. Most of the time, ppl only reply back to 4 or 5 and totally ignore the rest. Thank you for that bcuz we have legit questions and/concerns AND anxiety, when we're starting, wanting to start, and is on our loc journey!
I make it my business to respond to everyone. I hope as the channel grows, I can continue to keep up. I definitely like interacting with everyone. Makes me feel like I’m getting to know you all as well. 🥰 I’ll do my best to answer all questions and I’ll be honest if I don’t know the answer to the question.
I've been doing hair 24 years, your video was awesome and sooooo informative!!!!
That’s a high compliment coming from a professional. Thanks so much. 🥰
Thanks for this video! My inner hair nerd likes your very scientific drawing and your humor as you teach🤓 I think you were having trouble finding a distinct bud/bulge because your loc budding looks far along, with the puffiness taking over most of the length of each loc - I'd say yours are almost "teenagers," the next milestone to watch for! Between my start on May 28 and this week (1st retwist this Sunday, July 7), I already have 1 bud on nearly every loc🎉 - more photos for my Loc Journey Album! So, I'm excited to watch your journey and read everyone's loc experiences - keep "growing," everybody!
Thank you for the compliment 🥰and congratulations on starting your journey. 🌱 Enjoy every stage.I sometimes miss that short loc phase. It went by so fast. They’re about mid back now.
I’m so glad I found you’re channel..I’m currently 3 days into my journey and I’m sooooo excited🥳🥳 it’s so hard finding ppl who just started but you’re close enough! Thank you! Newly subbie here 😬
Awesomeness!!! Thanks Queen. Congratulations on starting your journey. I promise to keep posting and hopefully be able to keep you encouraged and inspired. 🥰
@@MaryK. thank you 😊
BEST VISUAL VIDEO ABOUT BUDDING!!!!!
and I’ve watched a million n a half loc videos! Well done!! Thank you!!!!
Well thank you. I am humbled by your compliment.
I started my locs last Sunday on the 11th of April and I kept hearing budding talk but yours is the only video that not only helped me understand it but gave me peace with what to expect from the process. I feel like I just became a whole lot more patient after watching your video, thank you. I’m excited for my hair to begin budding this summer and for me to officially become.a part of the loc community.
Peace and love sis 🙌🏾
Thanks so much Aaron for your kind words and congratulations on starting your loc journey. 🥰
i’ve been sponging for 3 weeks and my hair is budding already. Thanks for the visual aid 🙂
Wow! Only 3 weeks?!?! Awesomeness! 🤗
you're so articulate, this made me understanding budding and my locs a lot better. thank you and your hair is beautiful!
Aww thank you so much for the compliment. I’m humbled by the feedback I’ve been receiving on this video. I’m glad I was able to help. ☺️
This has been so helpful. I am a few months into locing my daughters hair and this is my first time. I was starting to think I was doing it wrong cause there is so much frizz. Thank you
Glad I could help LaSandra. ☺️
3 months in and thanks to this vid I’m starting to see a few of my dreads start to bud🐿🧡thank you sm!!!!!
That is awesome! I hope you’re enjoying your loc journey so far. 🥰🥰🥰
Probably the most detailed video yet!!
Thank you so much. I appreciate that feedback. ☺️
Thank you! I'm doing research on locs and was unsure if this is a sign the the locs have gone wrong or if its a natural and healthy part of the process. This was super helpful!
Thanks so much. Glad I could help. 🥰
This is by far the best explanation of the Budding process that I have seen as you've explained. Thank you as my hair is budding nicely. 9 months into the journey. ASE!!!!
Aww thanks so much. Glad I could help. Enjoy it. Some days I miss when they were short. 💫
This video has been so helpful 3 months into my loc journey, Thank you !!
Thank you. Glad it helped. 🥰
I am 5 weeks into the process, got my 1st retwist last week. I have been watching tons of videos. Yours is the most informative and your explanations were so relatable. I see you are still responding to comments. This is the reason why this is the first video I've commented on and subscribed to. Thank you for sharing!
Haha. Yes, this video has aged well and I always try to respond to comments. 🥰 Congratulations on starting your loc journey. Enjoy those initial stages and document your progress because it goes by quickly. 💫
Girrrrlllll!!! Where has this video been!? I’m about a month in and everyone is saying trust the process but I honestly was like how does this even work?? 😅Love love love your visual! And thank you.
Thank you Lisa. 🥰🥰🥰 I hope you’re sticking with it.
You explained the budding process so well. Really great because I'm naturally a visual learner. The loc matrix seems a whole lot more complex than I thought. Great job!😊
Thank you. 🥰 I hope to it loc journey is going well if you’ve already started.
@@MaryK. Thank you. Going good so far😇
I’m about two months in and this is super helpful!
Congratulations on starting your loc journey Kim. Glad I could help you along the way. ☺️
This video makes so much sense! Thanks! I just started my loc journey about 2 weeks ago.
Thank you. Awesomeness! Congratulations on starting your journey. 🤗
Best video I’ve seen yet on budding 😩 thank you girl 😊
Awww thanks so much. I really appreciate that. 🥰
Teach girl, Teach!!! You know you did the thang!!! Seriously, I appreciate the time you took in explaining and the visuals you so elegantly provided. You are correct, I do a lot of researching on this exciting budding process that I too am in. However you were very comprehensive and precise with your ocular presentation.
Aww thanks so much. I appreciate your feedback. 🥰🥰🥰
started my joints just now and i saw my first bud. had to watch this!! thank you 👊🏾
Awesomeness 🥰
This was one of the best loc journey videos I’ve seen. Thank you for your amazing visual. It was very helpful. I’m one week end and I’m a little bit nervous but I have to remember that everyone’s journey is different. I’m learning to trust the process. 🙏🏿❤️
Aww thank you mam. 🥰 Yes trust the process and also enjoy the early stages. It will go by faster than you think. 💫
Thank you just 2 months in, and I started taking my locs out to when I saw the budding, but I had no idea that was expected... but now is know... thanks to your video
Glad I could help. Happy budding. 🥰
This is my 3rd loc journey and this was thee most informative budding video I've ever seen. Thank you!!
All thanks so much 🥰🥰🥰
The first perfect visual of what really happens in all my searching... Your aide was PERFECT! Now I understand
Aww thanks so much Rhonda. 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you for this information. My locs are starting to do this. Thanks for affirming that all is well. I am an artist so I really appreciated the illustrations your provided. Spot on. BTW, I really like your make up, especially your blush. Just perfect! I keep trying to get mine just right - thank you for the inspiration! I wear similar colors on my eyes.
Well thank you for your kind words. Yes, got to have the visual for us artistic people. 🥰 I like to keep my makeup simple, but never be afraid to have fun with it.
This was the most helpful video about budding, and understanding the process. I'm still unclear as to what I am seeing on some of my locs is budding or bunching, but I will give it more time to see, and try to stop smoothing them out lol.
It can be difficult to tell the difference, especially depending on your hair texture. But be patient with your hair and let it do it’s thing. 🥰
Finally I understand. Thank you!!
Excellent! Glad I could help. ☺️
I just starting my locs. I will be happy once my locs start budding.
Thank is awesome! I hope your journey is going well. 💫
Hi I’ve had my locs 18 months and I always wondered what the buds were thank you for your detailed description 😊
🥰🥰🥰
Wow this explains it to me so very well!! I’m in the baby stage.
Congratulations 🎉 enjoy those first few months. It goes by fast.
Mannn you explained everything so perfectly! Black hair is so amazing man I love it. Subbed btw 🫶Keep it up sis I’ll be here. Thanks for this video. As I am definitely in my budding stage and im so happy about it!! I’ve finally made some progress that I can really see! I’ve been spraying my hair with water and oil for two months now, but I’ve been growing my locs for five months so far. The moisture definitely helps speed up the locking process. I cant wait to reach my year mark! Im definitely gonna upload a video about it cause it been a long time coming lol. But anyways thanks for this info!
That is awesome. Yes! Giving your hair lots of moisture will help it thrive. Wishing you well along your journey. Make sure you’re taking pics and documenting your journey. 💫
I started my locs on February 10, 2023 and in the budding stage. I've been sharing for info on budding locs. Your video was on point. Thank you so much❤
Glad I could help 🥰🥰🥰
I’m getting my hair loc’d next month. This video was so informative!! Your locs are beautiful!!!!
Thank you Shonda. I’m sure you’re locs are going to be just as beautiful. 🥰 I hope your journey is wonderful.
This visual was the first time I've ever truly understood the locking processing, and I've been watching videos obsessively for over a month lmfao. So dope! I started my journey 2/25/21
Glad I could help. 🥰 I remember those first couple of months. It was the main thing on my mind. 😂 Congratulations on starting your loc journey.
I started mines the same day 😍
I don't think I said enough about your hand written illustrated " Loc Hair Journey Step by Step , it was so good and informative
BIG THANK YOU , SISTER LADY FOR HELPING ANOTHER SISTER TRYING TO GET IT RIGHT THANKS AGAIN ..... *
Aww thank you Marilyn. You’re too kind. Glad I could help you along your journey. 🥰
This video explained so much to me. I appreciate you for this. I’m almost three months in and the frizz and budding is happening.
Aww thank you darling 🥰
Started my locs 12.21.21 - this is a great explanation of budding. Thanks for the visual!!
Thank you and congratulations on starting your journey. 🥳🥳🥳
Hi I started my locs on 12/23/21 they are budding already too…Keep up the work.
This was so helpful!! Thank you! I’m on month 4, too and my hair has changed so much. Not budded everywhere but has a good amount. You just gained a subscriber!🎉😄
Glad to hear your journey is going well. Mine were roughly the same around the 4 month period. 🥰
I am new to this.. I must say by far the BEST VISUALS.. thank you.
Aww thanks so much. 🥰
Great visual aid. I’m almost 2 months in and my hair has started budding. This really helped me understand, thanks.
Thank you and that is awesome Tiffany. Congratulations on starting your journey. 🤗
insanely helpful. that visual aid went hard. thank you!
Thank you. Glad to be of service. ☺️
That was actually very useful! As Ayanna Walls said...beastmode teaching!
😂 thank you Chris 💫
She just stopped me from taking my starter locs out again thank you 😊
🥰🥰🥰
I bared with you sis and your visual aid was A+++. Thank you! My hair actually buds from the bottom up.
Haha!!! Thanks for hanging in there. 🥰
This is so informative. I have Caucasian hair and I'm 5 weeks in. I didn't realize that the locs bud in both directions. From my root to about half the length of my hair is twisted and bent and the rest of the length is loose hair.
Congratulations on starting your journey. I’m glad this video was helpful. 🥰
Thank you this is 1 week journey for my starter loc.
That’s awesome!!! Congratulations on starting your journey. 🥰
Thx for the great info. The visual aid really helps. Just to learn that the budding process never stops is the best info to have.
Thanks Rita. 🥰
Girl you said you not a loctician well I beg to differ. I think you are a loctician. It’s really all about the knowledge and you definitely have it. This is the best video on utube pertaining to locs and budding. I’m as you in my four five month zone and some have loc ed others still completely unravel and I’m starting them again even at this stage. I do have a lot of budding. My budding started in the middle of my locs and some at the end but my roots just wasn’t budding or loc ing. So for me it’s frustrating but I’m hanging in there because once I saw my hair budding I knew then that eventually it will completely bud and loc throughout and your video explained just that. This video is definitely a well needed tutorial for those of us that are beginners trying to figure out what is going on with our hair. I believe this video will encourage a lot just to be patient and keep on going with the journey because everyone’s hair is different. I have started to wear my hair in more protective style to keep it from unraveling until it locs up. It’s a frustrating process for me but I’m being patient and I’m going to hang in there for a year to see how my hair turns out and yes I do my own hair. Thanks again for the knowledgeable, encouraging video. Please keep them coming. I have officially crowned you as a master loctician 🌹🌹
Well thanks so much Tasha. 🥰🥰🥰 I’ll accept my honorary loctician status. 😂 I’m sure your locs are blossoming beautifully.
The visual was awesome!!!
Thank you Debbie 🥰
This teacher helped me a lot and now my hair is budding!!!!
The best description this thank you.
Aww thanks so much Nya. 🥰🥰🥰
Wow I feel like I was sitting in a Loc Science class. This was a great example of explaining the loc budding process. Thank you so much. ❤
I believe you have the spiritual gift of teaching.
Aww thank you mam. That last sentence means more to me than you know. 🥰🥰🥰
Your visual aid was SO SO helpful! Thank you! ❤
Thank you Jacqueline. 🥰
Thanks cuz i had this one dread that was slim af and then outta know where i saw it was thick af
Haha! The budding process is amazing isn't it!
The visual aid was everything, this helped so much. I thought I was needing a retwist but my roots were still tight and my loctician sent me your vid, thank you so much
Thank you so much as well. Aww tell your loctician I said thank you. I had no idea this video would become as popular as it has.
Thank you so much!! Your visual aids were soooooo very helpful!! I know understand budding!! I am more comfortable & hopeful!!
That is awesome! 🥰 Glad I could help.
Very good description! I finally understand what ‘budding’ means now. Thanks!
Thank you. I appreciate it. 🥰
Oh she had time 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾🥰
Hahaha!
Very detailed, vivid, and awesome illustration 💜🌻👑👸🏽
Thanks so much 🥰
I will be one month loc'd on July 29thand my hair is budding like crazy. I washed it twice and I believe that helped it bud even faster. At first I was like no way my hair budding this fast but on my second wash I saw the knots/buds when my locs were wet. I was so excited. This video just confirmed I was right. I feel like at this rate im going to be fully loc'd before the year mark
Oh wow! You are definitely budding fast. It sounds like you’re taking proper care of them. Keep it up. 🥰🥰🥰
@@MaryK. thank you so much this video was very informative and I loved the diagram. Yes I have to keep my scalp clean I have dermatitis
Thank you as well. I appreciate the feedback. Aww man, yes you have to take great care of your scalp. Health is wealth. 💞
Mine too, I had washed my hair like 6 times first month, n the budding is hella crazy, a good thing is my starter never comes loose, so I don't need to go back 4 a retwist, I'll go back after 4 months.
I combed out my old set monday and Tuesday and started my finger coil locs Wednesday 2024 this journey beings
Congratulations on restarting your journey.🌱💫 What made you want to start them over? A change in loc size or parting?
Your very helpful for those of us who are starting locs
Thanks so much Vannessa. Good luck with your loc journey. 🥰🥰🥰
SUBSCRIBED!!! I love the break down... I'm 3WEEKS in on my loc journey #committed 🥳💃🏽
Aww thanks so much. Congratulations on starting your journey!!! You will love them. 🥰
Omg!! This video was THE BEST!! Thank u soooooo much!!! I started my locs Apil 16, ‘22. My hair is long, past my shoulders. I didn’t cut it (part of my spiritual journey). My texture is really silky. My goal is the bohemian locs like Lisa Bonet’s bcuz my texture being like hers. I guess bcus of my texure my budding is a little different or i think it’s different. I started my sons and my daughters locs… i guess I didn’t pay attention other than doing their retwist. I know each journey is different. It is starting to bud though. Thank u for the visual, we all are different but this helped me more than any of the other thousands of videos I’ve watched.
Aww thanks so much. I really appreciate the feedback. Lisa Bonet’s texture and locs are gorgeous, so I’m sure yours will be as well. 🥰🥰🥰
i have a couple of questions:
1. how many times have you retwisted before the budding actually began?
2. after their fully budded do they have to rebud if you get a retwist?
other than that, you have the most detailed video i could find! im one week loc'd and didnt have much info. and as a person with ADHD i couldn't sit still and pay attention to any articles, but this video and the visuals helped a lot! thank you so much😁
Thanks so much for the compliment. 🥰 Honestly my hair was already budding in the middle within the first month. I was shocked and in disbelief. My perimeter took a little longer. I’d say by month 3-4 they were all starting to bud.
Once you’re fully budding, you’ll feel the new buds when you retwist, but they will be smoother the more mature your locs become.
Hopefully that answers your question completely, but if not just let me know.
@@MaryK. that helps so much Tysm😁
This was the perfect video!!!! Just started mine (2 strand twist method) and aside from thoroughly explaining the budding process, the encouragement is always needed so thank you for this WHOLE video
Thanks so much Keshia. Hope you’re enjoying your journey so far. 💫
Thanks for sharing this with us 😍
Thank you for that visual aide, EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
Aww thanks so much. 🥰🥰🥰
I swear I’ve watched 100 videos and I finally get it! Thank you girl!
Aww thanks so much Tiara 🥰
This is the video that I needed. Thank you for that visual it was on point. Just started my loc journey 5 weeks ago
Awesomeness! Congrats on starting your journey, glad I could be of assistance. I'm originally from Georgia by the way. 😂
Visual aid saved me. Putting the panic back in the bag😊
Aww glad I could help. 🥰🥰🥰
Next week will be 3 months for me and I almost was about to give up until I just watched this video thanks for the info
Awww don’t give up Ebony. Hang in there. 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
That visual guide was perfect. I had no idea what budding meant until now. I'm 2 weeks loc'd 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
I’m 2 months in my loc Journey, thank you so much for the Visuals 😁
Congratulations! You are very welcome. May your journey be a beautiful one.☺️
Thanks for this video, I just started my locs on the 1st of November and needed to know more of what the do's and don'ts of locing.
Thank you and welcome to the loc family. Glad to help. 🥰🥰🥰
Now that was informative. I loved the examples, the drawings and the naturalness of your face.
Personally I've always thought of Locs as my personal spiritual journey. It's never just been a hair style for me, it's who I AM.
I got that same sense from you. Keep it real.
Thanks for your comment. It’s been almost 3yrs now and I definitely agree it’s more than just hair. 😉
I wish I saw this before I finally decided to loc my hair a couple of weeks ago. Very well described & the visual aids were on point! Be blessed
Thank you ☺️ and congratulations on starting your journey. I’m sure they look amazing already.
You're on it! Great diagrams and information... Keep it coming! I'm in my first 5 weeks and I have buds on my babies already... As a matter of fact, I'm shocked at how many of my locs are actually locked with two strand twists. But, my locs did start off very very short, 2 1/2 inches...🤩
Thank you. Embrace the short phase. It will go by quickly. Sometimes I miss my short fuzzy locs. 😂
MaryK Confidential, LoL!
Looove the visual aid. I understand the process better now.Very helpful and informative!!
Thank JaNica. Glad I could help. 💕
