I have silently binge watched your videos since I restarted my locs this January. Had them from 2007-2017 and never lost a loc! Had NOTHING to reference back then...had no concept of loc YT videos...all these new terms and names for stages...mindblowing. Your videos are calm, sensible, practical tips I have found insightful. You are one of a small handful of loc ladies I go to passing the time getting through the first phase...thank you for your contribution...💜💜💜

Love the locs but what are you using on your skin?! It’s flawless 😍

[@Thecatherinealexandra]

Thank you !! I guess I should do a skincare video now 😅

[@breakingbadgoddess]

You have gorgeous locs

[@Thecatherinealexandra]

Thank you!!

[@awkwardsilence5557]

Love the video. Question, how long does your new growth take to lock? And has it become any faster as your locs are maturing?

[@Thecatherinealexandra]

This is a good question! I can’t attest to how long it takes to loc casue I haven’t paid attention. I’ll def start paying attention more at the rate of the new growth and how long it takes to loc and circle back to this 😊

Can i use spirit to clean my scalp

[@ilfouco1541]

How do I get that thickness? Also your hair doesn’t have buildup what locking gel do you use?

[@Thecatherinealexandra]

I use loc n gel! I don’t style my hair often and I retwist every 4 weeks. Having a routine helps to prevent breakage and will keep locs from thinning 🫶🏾💫

[@liltjayfan1596]

With starter locs I was told I can use oil but I can’t wet or wash them until my first retwist is that true or common?

[@Thecatherinealexandra]

I washed my starter locs like two weeks after my locs were started lol if your hair is dirty, wash it!

[@JadetheGoober]

I started semi free forming about 2 months ago from a braid out
from just a few weeks of trial and error, my routine looks a lot like yours. It’s nice to get some confirmation that i’m on the right journey :)

[@Thecatherinealexandra]

Yes yes! Keep doing what you’re doing and I’m sure your locs will THRIVE! 🫶🏾✨
