    So I know this video is a year old at this point, but I just wanted to say it helped me a lot!!! I’m a year and half into my loc journey and I always got someone else to do it. Now I’m confident enough to start doing it myself and know that I can get the same results. THANK YOU!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

    I was 4 months in and had been seeing a loctician before the quarantine. I found I was just not good at palm rolling when I had to maintain my own hair. This twisting method came to me and worked perfect. I actually love love love the fluffy ends I get with this method.

    Shampoo causing build up is a misconception as well as conditioner causing mold. Ive had my locs for just over 4 years and I usually deep condition most in the winter because that's when I get kinda dry, it depends on what/how much product you as well as your hair texture

    Palm rolling is the only way to get the friz in the middle and bottom of your locs to look uniform will your roots. If you get what I’m saying. I mean over time the friz will naturally become part of your locs but... idk just my opinion. Also I want my parts big like yours 🥺

    Random question, if you want to split one of your locs into two, would you be able to do so? I ask because I just loc’d last week but i want more locs. I have an appt in 5 weeks to retwist and I was going to ask her to split some of my locs to add more. Is that a thing??

    Hey love. I just watched two of your videos back to back. In the other video before this one when you were retwisting your hair using the palm rolling method, I noticed that you were twisting to the left/counter-clockwise. I noticed that in this one, without palm rolling, you're twisting to the right/clockwise. This can cause problems for those that are not fully and maturely locked. It can cause "gaps/holes" and a looser network of locked hair. If you have mostly twisted your hair to the left or right, it would be best to stick to twisting in the same direction all the time. Be careful not to switch up.

    • @DESZREN

    Hi I how are you doing? I started my locs 4 weeks ago. I did not start my locs on my own. I wanted to start with the coiling method however, the stylist that I went to told me that my hair was too long. She charged me $300 and locs my hair instantly. She also used the interlock method🤷🏽‍♀️. I have not yet done a retwist since. What advice can you give me?. By the way love your channel.

    • @DESZREN
      @DESZREN  4 роки тому +1

      $300?!!! Sheeeesh! I’m not really a fan on interlocking because I’ve noticed on other people’s locs, the part they interlocked is much thinner than the rest of their loc! Which can cause problems later down the road. I would suggest palm rolling or using the method in this video to further maintain your locs!

      So sometimes when I moisturize my hair I’ll take my time and separate any of my locs that are beginning to combine or marry together. Also I’ll wash my hair in sections too which I’ve noticed has helped with that as well! I also noticed that if I let my hair dry after washing it before I retwist it, it combines much more and will hurt while separating so I retwist RIGHT after I get out the shower

      They can be ordered on Amazon or when I needed a new one fast, I drove to Walmart and purchased condiment bottles (ketchup/mustard bottles).
