    My 1 year starter locs journey has been very interesting, It's been so healing. I've had some bad days but some really good days, especially after a good old retwist. My locs have taught me so much about myself, they've helped me rediscover parts of myself I never knew I had. The confidence, the belief & perseverance. I started my short starter locs with comb coils. As you can see because I started my locs with short hair, I've seen major growth the past year and I'm excited to see how my locs will grow when I get to 2 years. My short starter loc journey has definitely taught me a lot of patience, I've enjoyed documenting everything through this loc journey. I hope you enjoy this summary of my 1 year being loc'd and I hope it encourages you to either start your loc journey or continue at whatever stage you're in. Whether you've just loc'd your hair, whether yours has just started budding, whether you also have 4b and 4c hair like me... I hope it provides you with inspiration to start your own and to stick it through.
    I'll see you guys in my next video where I will be styling my short starter locs without a retwist.
    Feel free to check out my other videos about how my locs helped with my healing.

    My Channel is a mix of videos sharing tips & advice based on my experience and expertise to empower anyone that needs to embark on a path of true healing whether it is leaving a toxic relationship or being enlightened so that you can prevent yourself from falling victim of individuals with personality disorders. Trauma generates emotions, and unless we process these at the time the trauma occurs it stays within us as energy in our unconscious until we uncover & process it. One of the things I love about my work is that I am constantly learning. I am drawn to helping people with emotional trauma. There is always a reason for anxiety & depression. If we dig deep enough we'll find it. So thank you for joining me & I hope you enjoy. Let's continue to Turn Trauma into Triumph!
    Blessings

      You’ve got this! The thing is, I feel like it’s easier for women with starter locs. Cos you can put a headwrap on when you’re not feeling like wearing your locs out. In fact I’ll make a video on this week on how I wore my locs out without a wig. Hope it helps you too ❤️

    I’ve been binging on a lot of short hair loc videos. Everyone, including you, has given me hope! 😂 I’m 7.5 months post big chop and I started my 2nd set of locs last week. They are waaaay shorter than yours. Again, I have hope 😂 your hair is so beautiful. I’m loving your month 7! It’s something about month 7 with Locs 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Months 7-9 were my best months, the length, the fluffiness, it was so cute. Hope you’re enjoying the journey so far. Since it’s your 2nd set, I’m sure you’ll use everything you learned from the first set. I’ve been winging it 😂 ❤️

      The coil method works better if you have kinky curly hair. If your hair is straight I would suggest starting with crochet to stop it unravelling. Perhaps crochet the ones that are unravelling. Hope this helps 🙏🏾😊
