I have officially had my #SemiFreeformLocs for 2 years. Instead of doing a traditional update video I decided to go more abstract and talk about how caring for my locs now is a time for me to slow down and relax and reconnect with myself. I take my time in the shower and try to never rush the process of caring for my hair. I've recently switched shampoos and am enjoying that more than using Dr. Bronner's even though I still use their organic hair rinse to condition my locs. Finally, I try to keep all product usage minimal in my locs to avoid buildup. Currently, for the spring I'm using aloe vera gel and a light oil to seal in moisture.

You have such a mesmerizing calmness that's so literally attractive. Peaceful, if you will. Your locs give the same vibe.
That was so peaceful and satisfying to watch
I classify your loc journey as YOURS. Das it. Beautiful and yours. 💖💖
😌😌
The way you edited your videos is like watching a movie.
I would classify you and your loc journey as beautiful! No other labels necessary!
😌😌
This video is amazing. As per usual.
I classify your loc journey as freeing and authentically you like your storytelling. :)
😊
BEST hair washing video EVER. Free flowing, the adjective for your locs and the video.
Your loc journey is defined, confident and strong.
*Classifying it as “unique” just as anyone’s journey should be.*
I’m 3 days into my loc journey and I’m so excited! Thanks for sharing this video sis!
😎✌🏿
For shampoo: African Black soap dissolved in water mixed with essential oils and jojoba and Neutrogena Anti-residue shampoo. I used to use Dr. Bronners too. Hard water= build up SO my girl Dawn came through. As for classifying your loc journey, it's yours. No need for any other labels. Beautifully done video as always!
You mix the two shampoos? Interesting. Why?
I would think of you as semi-free form. When I was loc’d, I used Paul Mitchell’s Tea Tree Shampoo and Carol’s Daughter Black Vanilla Shampoo. Currently, with my loose hair, I like TGIN’s shampoo and Design Essentials Curl Cleanser.
I used to use Carol's Daughter Black Vanilla on the first set, back when it was a smooth $20 a bottle LAWD
Girl, I call your journey "take care of your hair" journey. LOL. I used to just tie my hair, ignore it, wash it once in awhile, and that was it. I'm just now starting to take care of it and moisturize my hair. A few days ago I trim the ends I'm becoming more used to the idea of managing and taking care of my hair more and I'm happy with it. So your journey is fine, your journey is great, your journey is your journey. I love your peaceful serene personality you are not rushed, you are in the moment, and you don't seem like the person that dwells too much in the past, which is great. Your journey is yours own it. Stay blessed. God bless. 😊🤗
That wink @ the end - PRICELESS! Your crown is beautiful. Peace and Blessings to you and yours!
Authentic is how I classify your loc Journey...#Beautiful
Not only do you have a beautiful voice to listen to but you’re Locs are gorgeous.
The crown is looking very Righteous✊🏿
This was so therapeutic to me
Wait a minute..... I just randomly found this Channel and after 1 video I fell in love with you! Subscribed ! 🙏🏾
Welcome!
I’m in San Antonio so I feel the water situation! I would classify your journey as organic and symbolic. I use Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil shampoo. Real simple routine.
Organic. I like that! And yes, San Antonio water is the WORST. I’m ordering a shower filter for this house ASAP because I can not anymore.
Your hair is beautiful. I don't twist my locs, I just separate and go. I use African black soap to wash my hair and occasionally acv rinse if I got the time. I like the fullness and the freedom minimalism gives me, and it works for me
Neutrogena Residue Free Shampoo. Your loc journey is beautiful.
No one word comes to mind. I appreciate you sharing your journey and have really enjoyed it. My daughter and I are in week 3 with similar hair to yours. Your videos are informative, not a drag to watch and you never ramble. Your crown is beautiful!
😌😌
If I hadn't already subscribed having found you a week ago, I would've definitely subscribed based on this. So relaxing to watch. Wish it were longer!
Beautiful hair, video, music, video - everything!
Such an intriguing video. The music was nice too. Nice Locks.
What a beautifully shot and narrated video. So lovely!!!
Also, I'd never heard of Dr Bronnor's Hair Rinse. I might give it a go.
The one the only the icon, HALLEASE!
🙋🏿🙅🏿♀️
This is my favorite video so far. You definitely got a subscriber. KEEP IT COMING :)
I used Neutrogena anti residue shampoo when it's time to shampoo my hair. I shampoo twice a month. Other times I just wet my hair in the shower.
I love how you made this video so artful. You didn't over explain anything and we still got the point without all the extra stuff 👍🏼🙂👍🏼
It's 'classify'your loc journey as an example of what we should all be doing: less is more. 🤩 Thanks for sharing
I use 2 Shea moisture- one for clarifying and one for moisture. Learned it from Damien. Works well. I shampoo every 5-7 days
I’ll echo other commenters...your loc journey is uniquely yours, and that’s just fine. On another note, when are you going to Sundance with these beautiful videos?? 😄
This video was very soothing and your locs are beautiful! I too haven't retwisted in over 4 months . I wash, then seperate my roots. I will retwist in July before my cruise...maybe. I too have trouble sticking with my plans ..lol.
i love your locs....they remind me of mine... seeing this lets me see i am on the right track...
This is so beautifully filmed. Thank you.
I also use the hot water & Dawn soap combo for a deep cleaning.
Your locs are so well-formed. I’ve been loc’d for about the same time & mine are a puffy “Cheeto” shape. It looks like our texture is the same 🤔...either way ... loving your hair & your channel.
They sound awesome!
I feel like I'm listening to an audio book. I love it. :')
This was cinematically beautiful.
So beautiful. I’m celebrating my two year loc journey in November . My 3rd set
Wow! You're so beautiful. This is my first time on your channel (I'm getting my locs tomorrow) and the way that this video was done is so awesome. I felt like I was watching a documentary, almost. Great music as well. EDIT: And you're a real one for paying for captions! This is SO important for people who aren't hearing and/or have auditory processing disorders. :)
Aye! Yes I try to have the captions up within 24 hours of posting.
Intimate, beautiful...lovely music too.
This was a very pleasing video and your voice is comforting and very therapeutic 💗💗💗💗 subscribed af
Welcome!
I found the Jason's sulfur shampoo thanks to you and that does wonders for my scalp. Even diluted, it can be a little thick, though. So I follow up with mane choice hydrating shampoo (diluted), which has a great lather that removes any residue left from the Jason's or the scalp fragments it knocks loose.
I LOVE your locs! I'd call them semi-free form (I know some folks hate that terms). But you're maintaining parts and cultivating a certain look without twisting/palm rolling/interlocking.
I'd classify you and your loc journey as perfection. You're doing what's right for you and it's working. You and your locs look great. How frequently do you wash your loc?
Once or twice a week depending on how much I’m working out
How would you deal with your locs if you swam 3-4 times a week? Wearing a swimming cap but hair getting a little wet .
Hmmm, that’s tough I would definitely at least rinse my hair but not shampoo to get any small bits of chlorine out. I already do that now with my workout regimen, I shampoo once or twice a week but if I work out that day I’ll always at least rinse my hair with water. I also find that doubles to help maintain good moisture in my locs as well.
Thanks for answering! I've been toying with the idea of getting locs but swimming is my main physical activity and I live in Normandy and the water is very hard here. Just not sure all of this is compatible with maintaining locs.
I think a water filter on Amazon for your home shower isn’t a bad investment if you can get it in that country.
I absolutely love this video. Congratulations on your journey so far!
This is my 5th time watching your video. Your cinematography is levels above!! I appreciate the work you put in. Thank you. Oh yeah your journey...well..it's yours... And it's beautiful just like you. 😊
Hi Hallease! My loctician uses design essentials natural hair care line and something but I don't remember. Eventhough you separate your locs, I would consider them to be free form because you don't retwist. Regardless, they're beautiful.
All of my favorites are coming to 2 years 👏👏 love growing with y'all
Water looked scorching!!
Locs have come a long way..
you have such a peaceful voice. very relaxing to listen to
I do the same. I separate but I refuse to retwist because I want my roots thick and I just don’t see the purpose tbh. Aside from that I use African black soap (the real kind) and make some soaps of my own
Queen. This is beautifully shot and edited. I'm in love with the work you are doing! 😍
So enjoyed this video! Your locs look great :)
Hey! I watch your loc updates!
Hey I’m from San Antonio!! 🤗
Your hair is beautiful, I’m only 9 months so far.
210 por vida!
Another lovely video. It has been a pleasure watching your journey. I still remember your first set! Your hair looks very healthy. I have a similar regimen to yours (washing and separating w/o retwisting/tightening) and I'd call it semi-freeform
You’ve been following me since the first set?!?
Wow! You're beautiful inside and out!
You should try palm rolling to try something different, regardless your locs are absolute goals!❤️❤️
I might give it a spin for a few months just to see if it actually affects the shape. My locs already loc pretty tightly though so I'm hesitant to do anything that could make the hair tangle up even tighter (which is why buildup is something I'm often considering).
i totally understand. Caution is a great thing to have when you have locs
Everything about this video was so relaxing... subscribed..
Welcome!
I use Come Clean by Kinky Curly for my locs. It’s the best shampoo I’ve used on them.
currently not using it bc i dont have locs anymore but I liked my experience with Neutrogena Anti-Residue Shampoo.
Last month when I had my buildup scare I purchased it as well but as I continue to do more research on what ingredients cause it I see those ingredients in that shampoo. Ionno...I bought so imma use it. Especially since I know if push comes to shove I can just use Dawn again.
I love your locs!!!!
Your loc journey is fabulous 💕
Everything about this video is beautiful.
This video.
You in this video.
Everything👐
Best dreads ong 💯
Loved this so much!!! Your locs are so beautiful!!
The shampoo that I use is knotty Dread shampoo I mix with Jamaica Black castor oil
They are looking really good
Check out my 6 month loc update.
Im doing a retwist, a wash and styling.
let me know in the comments what you think
Beautifully shot video. But I mean, hey, you're Hallease. Congrats on year two. So how did that work: the logistics of boiling water on/in your hair?
Put it in the sink with dawn soap and then dunked my hair (not the roots obviously) in and let it soak. Once the water began to cool enough to touch I squeezed it through my locs as well
Hallease Thanks for the idea.
I would classify your locs as ah-mazing. #thatisall ☺
In love with your videos
😊
This. Was. Beautiful!
I really enjoyed your video
Love this video.
Beautiful!
Hi! ☺️👋🏿 @hallease I've watched your entire journey thus far, and thinking maybe I missed something but do you still interlock? Or only separate your locs since 2016? By the way, your journey and locs are beautiful, such an inspo! Thank you 💖
Nope, I'm not I just separate now
you're so adorable! and I'd say you're semi freeform.
Oh my...... This was refreshing 😍 subs😍
Welcome!
Wow. I need help. Ur journey is relating and beautiful.
What do you need help with?
NATURAL
How you make a loc video that is mesmerizing and cinematic?
reminds me of masterpiece theater. lol!
So therapeutic
Doing my own hair
Love from Kenya
Hey, I love your videos! I still use dr.bronners but I understand about the build up sometimes I just do an apple cider vinegar wash and go. I’ll try the dr.bronners rinse in the future much love from, Haleemah🌻 via St. Louis.
Abbbsolutly 😍
they are beautiful.
Nice locs. I’d say you’re semi free forming but hey I’m not big on the labeling because everybody has their own definitions. Btw where did you purchase that head wrap you used to dry your hair? I’ve been wanting one for a while.
Walgreens/CVS it’s call a turban twist
Semi freeform
You're so cool.
You have not retwisted since 2016? Omg how do you deny the urge?
I like my free time.
hahaha
Ok I'm going to try.
Im using dove
How do u keep your scalp moisturized? And do u wrap your hair when u exercized?
Just posted a video about my moisture routine
This method is very simular to my own. So I guess it's classified as semi free form? At least that's what I've been told.
Healthy
