Question. In ur early stages of growing ur locs did u not use clippers when u retwisted like how u didn't use them in this video
@@yugen.k.escobar45 I did! I no longer use them cause my hair is longer and now and has weight so the retwist stays in place without the clips.
Great tips! Thank you for your advice
How can I get to your Amazon store front
Check out this page from thecatherinealexandra www.amazon.com/shop/thecatherinealexandra?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_aipsfshop_aipsfthecatherinealexandra_GD0E3B6R56RKNXERQNC7&language=en_US 😊

U can get them cut out and reinstalled
You are a racist and employers can see it!
Had it said "white is smart," she would have been the first person to scream racism!
I call horsesh*t! Blaq women are the most protected and privileged today. Even employers are afraid to annoy blaq women for fear of a gender and race lawsuit. The privilege is overwhelming!
Does your hair grow faster on one side of your head?

I started my locs and I am taking mane choice hair pills almost 3 weeks in . I started July 6 th 2024 ❤️
@@joannamelanie welcome to the loc club!! 🥰
@@Thecatherinealexandrathank you ❤️ documenting my journey on Instagram
Great
Thanks for the amazing advice!❤ I currently have locs which are 2 yrs old but I’m thinking it’s best to comb them out as my density does not match the size of the parts, my hair has thinned so much with post partum shedding and continues to break😢. I think a fresh start is best and I’ll definitely incorporate your tips.
@@ChannieLaBelle oh no, I’m so sorry to hear this. I hope your next set works out better than this current one!! 🫶🏾
Heyy, I was told that by interlocking it will be more difficult (or impossible) to eventually comb the locs out in future, is this true?🥰
@@awathiaw03 I would think so, the interlocking basically creates a braid like knot in your loc. I can’t imagine that being easy to comb out!
Great advice .I have just started my loc journey back in April your locs are goals stay blessed 😊
@@angiesmixy2349 congrats on starting your journey!! 🫶🏾
Hair looks amazing. Side note: I don’t know if you’ve seen this before but it may be worth it for you to screen mirror to your tv to record your retwists. That way you get the view you need and also the content without having to change anything up too much.
@@TheBenitaAngela Oh my gosh, thank you for this !!!! I’ll give this a try 🥰
Cute
I love this look on you girl i have to buy this type of brand hair
How many packs u use?
I don’t consider the questions to be silly. If someone doesn’t know then they will ask. I’d rather educate them than to consider them silly questions
I like your locs on you. I lock my hair this year! Your twist looks amazing,do you do other people hair ?
@@brendasollers5252 thank you! And no, I only do my hair lol
@@Thecatherinealexandra your welcome,oh okay I understand.
They’re so cuteee! I love them so much and even with the pigtails you look good! You look so pretty in that outfit too stay positive girl :)
@@bethanylaswell7545 thank you so much !! 🥰
You are beautiful and your glasses are perfect ❤
@@melessamoor8319 thank you !! 🥰
What happens if you stretch your retwist for longer?
@@meditationmama70 breakage lol
@@Thecatherinealexandra 😬 no bueno . That’s why it’s important to listen and observe your hair. Take advice yet observe.
@@meditationmama70 yes yes!! Do what works best for your hair !
Girl, you are freaking beautiful! I'm straight, but you about have me thinking twice about that!😳❤
So real :P
@@ainnochaim9450 LOL 😂 thank you !!
Love your locs,did you ever palm roll your locs before?
@@divineenorense5808 thank you! Yes, I’ve been palm rolling for the last 2 years
😍😍😍
Love them! 🎉❤
@@desertsunshine thank you 😊
Super cute

Your locs are beautiful

I wanted to see the name of the new loc gel. I apologize as I didn’t see the name of the product in your description box. Great video, and love all the details that you gave and the fact that you showed each step. I’m definitely going to try the cream of nature spray too ❤
Oh my gosh, thank you for letting me know!!! I completely forgot to add it to the description box 😂 I went ahead and added it in, it’s also on my Amazon storefront but the name is Pure O Neatbraid Conditioning Shining Gel 🫶🏾
I have 39 locs, it's over in no time 😂
Thank you for sharing 😔Being a black women in the professional world is becoming extremely exhausting on me to the point where I need therapy. I hope this changes soon
@@essenceera9054 I hope it does too! PRAY, keep God close to your heart and get really intentional about your goals 🫶🏾💫
Love the top bun
@@meditationmama70 thank you!!
You’re getting better each time
Your locs are beautiful! What oil did you put in your hair after the leave in?? I have sisterlocs and have put nothing other than distilled water in my hair for the last 13 months. I can't complain but the product junkie in me want to try something...😂😂😂
@@kimberlyjones2694 it’s a oil mix I make myself ! ua-cam.com/video/xLIAg6p-wcE/v-deo.html
Very helpful video, I started similar to you comb coils-interlocks-retwist. Debating on getting interlocked again since my roots don’t seem to be locking at all
Im from queens living in Atlanta. I hate it here. The law messed up. The ppl weird. Food isn’t as good in my opinion. Everything in atlanta over hyped. Overpriced. Job market trash w a degree imagine without.
Honestly if u live in Atlanta the best place to live is the outskirts of Atlanta !!!!!
Yesss keep ur intentions pure and good. If ur with ur man stay with him bc these men are trash and dangerous. And plz be safe people in Atlanta are actually very grimey I know I sound crazy rn but I wish someone had told me these things my first months here. That realness in nyc we are accustomed too. It’s nothing like that.
@@tricha187 oh no, I’m sorry to hear your experience hasn’t been that great!! I agree the outskirts is nice as well 😌
Congratulations 🎉❤❤❤❤
Omggg your features are perfection 💕 you're so pretty
Wow, thank you so much!! 🥰
Just wanted to let you guys know that Jesus is coming back soon! Please repent and get to know the Lord before He comes! "The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance." 2 Peter 3:9
I’m born and raised in the Bronx moved to Douglasville which is 30 mins from Atlanta about 4 years ago (retired). I literally came back from visiting NY. I like visiting NY now lol. Definitely cheaper for me saved a lot on car insurance lol 😅. I do miss the ease of just jumping on the train everywhere. I enjoy the High museum the first Friday of the month which is very nice (music and dancing) that’s my turnup lol, restaurants, wineries and just a nice private soft life. I stay away from the nightlife.
I actually know Douglasville! I’ve been there quite a few times since I moved. It’s nice over there, very calm 🥰 Thanks for the heads up about the High Museum, I keep hearing about it so I’ll have to check it out!!
@@Thecatherinealexandra it’s a vibe especially in the summertime and nextime if your in Douglasville check out Per Se Restaurant it’s pretty nice, they have good food, nice bar and play great music I like going in the afternoon.
@@wanchawancha5323 I’ve passed by Per Se sooo many times and wondered if it was worth checking out. You’re putting me on to so many places rn 😂 thank you so much!! 🥰

I am a Native born New Yorker from Brooklyn and it's so sad to me that native middle class New Yorkers cannot live comfortably ! 😤 That’s our home! Like what are they trying to do exactly ? Make New York a place only the rich and famous can reside ? Make it like Singapore? I'm so confused. All the good natives who made New York what it was have left or planning to leave due to prices and crime smh. May God bless you on your new chapter in Atlanta !
The older I get I’ve come to realize NYC is “old money” . it’s for people sitting on generational wealth. The up and coming much less the native middle class don’t stand a chance there. It’s a shame cause I truly LOVE NYC but I can’t see myself thriving there. Thank you for the warm wishes!!! 🥳
@@Thecatherinealexandra thanks for the explanation sis , it makes a ton of sense ;well said ! And I felt that HEAVYyy when you stated there is no place like New York . And you are most welcome ! 🙏🤗
@@curlieeloks3032 truly no place like NYC!!! 🥳
How do I get that thickness? Also your hair doesn’t have buildup what locking gel do you use?
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 🫶🏾💫
You are so pretty and those lashes are literally perfect❤
Thank you!! Yes, they’re my fave 🥰
12 seconds in and I know I clicked the right video cause Im preparing to start locs now, and I washed with Aussieanna 😹😹
Owww good luck!! I hope you love your local journey 🫶🏾
i love how you didn’t really care about clean parts 😭 this what i’m looking for i jus wanna flat base
I really don’t 😂 no one is gonna be able to see my scalp like that and if they do, they’re too close lol
Beautiful locstyles...💞😄
Thank you !! 🫶🏾
Congrats on your big decision. Explore and have fun.
Thank you !!
welcome to Atlanta! Honey it’s expensive here as well, but I am sure you will make the best of it. I hate the traffic here. Again welcome to Atlanta.
Thank you for the warm welcoming!! As someone who was born & raised in NYC, Manhattan to be exact, trust me when I say ATL is not as expensive 😂
as a girlie starting her locs in 2024, i found this video very inspirational. i need a retwist real bad rn 🤣 when it gets like this i be tempted to comb them out. i’m 5 months in though!
Hang in there !!! You’re very close to seeing them truly evolve and turn into locs 🫶🏾✨
