I am so sorry for your loss and I completely understand. I lost my little brother last month and it was unexpected and learning to live life without him is challenging and it hurts so much. I miss him. I had a hair apt this week with my natural stylist to do my normal braid down but I had a consultation for micro locs. She held me as I cried and told me that lately people have been coming to her for a major change with their hair after a challenging life event. She then washed my hair and she carefully took care of me as I cried. Her care was intentional and compassionate. It was a therapeutic experience and then later we had the consultation. I left her shop feeling empowered and supported. My loc day begins at the end of February and I cannot wait. Yes, grief is so hard. Sending you hugs and love. I hope your family member and my brother met up there and became fast friends. ❤ New subbie. God Bless! 🙏🏾
I am so very sorry for your loss. It is so kind of you to share. I’m not sure if I said it in the video (I can barely say it out loud), but I lost my baby sister. I’m glad you found a kind and understanding consultant. I hope you find communities of support to help you with the grieving process. I’m working on this very thing right now!

Thank you!
Enjoyed watching your journey. Your hair is beautiful. I just reach my five year sister lock anniversary. I stopped coloring my hair a year ago and I like my grey hair.
Thank you and thanks for watching! I’m reconsidering coloring my hair. I’m not close to a salon and maintenance would be challenging.
First of all, so sorry for your loss. I know how that feels since i also went through the same once i finished my first year. Your hair is lovely has grown a lot and is thicker. I am in the fourth year now waiting to see how may hair will look once i reach year four. It a lot of confidence when i was beginning and i believed in the vision of how it would look like in five years. Having a vision is essential. Thank you for sharing your journey with us and i hope you will be well
Thank you. So very sorry for your loss as well.
You made me laugh today! I’m sorry for the loss of your family member. May the Lord comfort you🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Absolutely beautiful! So encouraging. I am 2 months in☺️

Your hair is beautiful!!! From the beginning till now gorgeous
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your hair journey. It was very informative. I, myself have experienced temporary hair loss at the area you are having due to stress, it took 2 yrs to grow back. I hope your hair comes back. I’m very sorry for your loss. It helps to talk about it.
Thank you So much! I’m dealing with quite a bit of stress right now. Looking into grief counseling for sure.
My deepest condolences and WOW your hair is Fabu!!!
Thank you.❤️
Enjoyed the video your locs are beautiful. I’m 10 weeks in. So sorry for your loss ❤

Congrats on your 4yrs I’ve had my sister locks for 9 yrs , but I’ve also had traditional locks before ,my sister locks have gotten so long that I had to cut them and didn’t realize how heavy they were until I felt the lightness after I cut them
Thank you! I forget about the weight until wash day!
Your hair is beautiful!!!

Perfect length ❤

Thank you.❤️
My condolence on the loss of your loved one. Your hair is beautiful and full. How many locs do you have?
Thank you! Count on install: 502.
I am 2 years locked and canit wait to be 4 years. My hair is now filling out and growing
That’s the point when it can really take off!
Gorgeous! Do you still have slightly curly ends? I just got mine established a week ago (yay!) and am hoping to keep my ends a teeny bit curly. How did yours change over time?
Nope! Those curly ends are just about gone. It took over 3 -3/12 years, but the curls just tighten/loc over time.
Love your locs! How many locs did you start with, if I may ask?
Thank you! I started with 502 locs.
Sorry to hear of the lost of your loved one. Sending prayers of comfort to you🙏🏾❤
Your hair is beautiful!😍
I'm almost 1yr into this journey😊
Peace & Blessings
Thank you. ❤️
Hey Queen Crista!!! It's always so refreshing to see your videos! Whether it be your clothing content or hair! Thanks so much for your message about uplifting ALL Black Queens! 🔥
My sincerest condolences on your loss 🙏
Thank you so much. ❤️
Congrats Crista😊❤ Your hair is beautiful❤. I'm 2 years and 3 months in and I am truly looking forward to shoulder length and beyond❤ Loving your hair❤❤❤❣️❣️💯My condolences to you...I'm so sorry to hear... take care.
Thank you. ❤️
Would you recommend chopping off the reminder of the relaxer before the install? Sounds like you did and sounds like I need to go this route as wll
Personally, I like the look better without relaxed ends, but I understand if letting go of length is difficult for some. Hair is so personal, I’d do what makes me most comfortable.
@@CristaStylista agree
Thank you for taking the time to make this video as you work through your grief. Sending prayers your way for comfort. I understand exactly where you are in your grief and it’s good you are working through it. I had not heard of the Hers Minoxidil for women. My dermatologist told me to use Rogaine for men because it’s 5%, but I’m happy to hear there is a minoxidil for women that is 5% and I’m hoping it does not cause the facial hair like the Rogaine does for me. How do you use the foam though? Do you use it in only the section that is thinning and do you do so only on the scalp without getting it on your hair?
I'm 2 yrs locked, and I only braid and band my edges where my shortest hair is so my baby locs won't slip.
I don't love braiding and banding, but I do love a good braidout! On a regular washday, I think I'll braid the edges, and do big twists for the rest of my head. I'm not a fan of washing loose-so heavy.
Please ask your dermatologist about nutrafol. My son dealt with alopecia due to illness. He has fully grown in hair now.
I will! Thank you!
I have that shampoo and it dried my hair out, I will send u mine if u want. I only used it 2x
Hello, and thank you for the kind offer! After washing, I do add a bit of leave-in conditioner, and I think it helps. I’d love to know what shampoo you’d suggest. I’m always open to try something new!
I also have 4 C hair its fine
4C + sisterlocks: a match made in heaven!
I wish I had got sister lock but … I couldn’t do them so instead I got micro locks
Hard to tell the difference sometimes. I love both!
That's funny you wished you colored your hair prior to install. I did a fresh color (blonde) prior to install against my SL consultants wishes but, I wish I didn't. It would've given that hair to grow color free and be stronger. I have fine thin hair but, with SL it's no longer that way. I'm almost 4 years and had my first trim because my hair was uneven due to the locking process and color from over the years. I still love my color but, all my original color is gone.
I still go back and forth on color…for now I’m just letting these grays do their thing!
What is the name of the person who did your install? What city are you in?
Installed by Chastity Vaughn, S2R Hair Studio in Richardson, TX. My Hair is Maintained by Robbii Miller in Columbus, OH.
Hello beautiful. Your hair is gorgeous. How many locs do you have in total?
Thank you! 502 locs on install. I’ve lost and gained a few since.
@@CristaStylista Amazing. I just got my microlocs installed yesterday. I have 271.
Your crown (mane) is beautiful. Look up Dr. Hope Mitchell in Ohio. I'm not sure which city you're in, but Ohio is not that big? That's coming from a lady who lives in Michigan myself.
Thank you so much for watching! I’m planning to take better care of myself over the holiday break starting with finding doctors! I really appreciate the recommendation!
Nice locks, beautiful woman.
Thank you!
❤❤❤
Thank you!
