    Like you I have thin hair but these Sisterlocks have me looking like I have a thick head of hair. I just passed my 3.5 year mark in December. I still have some curly ends but recently cut a lot of them off for a more uniform look. Now I look like I have layered locks 😁 your locks are flourishing and beautiful keep the videos coming 😍

I’ve been watching your videos since the beginning of your establishment wow 🤩 your locs are growing and getting thicker. I had to trim my ends due to bunching (fine thin low density hair). But my length is about the same as yours. I can’t wait to see your 3yr growth.

    Your hair looks great! You def have more volume, which is so interesting. I assumed at 2 years our hair stops swelling, and your last update you mentioned losing volume. I'm hoping I continue getting a bit more volume through my 2nd year as you have. I reach two years in March! Thank you for sharing!

    • @TheRealKylaB
      @TheRealKylaB  Рік тому

      Isn’t it? I assumed my hair was at maximum volume already. Don’t get me wrong, I am happy with it at every stage anyway. So the volume I had a few months back was fine, but I am pleasantly surprised and happy to see that my hair is still changing. I really enjoy watching my hair change. It’s the most interesting part about locs to me. Part of the reason I started doing them is because I like to see how different the journey is for others.
      I hope you continue to have a beautiful loc journey. Happy (almost ) 2 years!

    • @TheRealKylaB
      @TheRealKylaB  Місяць тому

      You have to get a retightening every 6-8 weeks. Depending on your hair type/texture this could take 2-5 hours and the cost varies. If you go to someone who charges by the hour, let’s say $50 an hour. Your cost could be $100-$300 every 6-8 weeks.

    Love this! You truly are my motivation. Ok so I've noticed my scalp often smells sweaty a day after shampooing. I'm still only two months in and am concern that I have to deal with sweaty smelling scalp with locs. This is discouraging. Can you please let me know if this is normal and since you use nothing but shampoo on your locs...how do you keep it smelling fresh throughout the week? How often do you shampoo? What can I use on scalp to keep it Smelling fresh?

      @TheRealKylaB  Рік тому +1

      Thank you Kerry 😊.
      My hair smells like the shampoo for a day or two, but after that it doesn’t smell like much of anything. Then around the 1 week mark it has my natural scent. And around week two it probably smells like a combination of my house, my kitchen, and my natural scent. You may need to change your shampoo or dry your hair after you wash it.( with a hooded dryer or one of those bonnet dryer attachments for the hand held hair dryer. What did your loctitian or consultant have to say about it? And do you have regular microlocks or sisterlocks ?

    • @kerrydavis1544
      @kerrydavis1544 Рік тому

      @@TheRealKylaB I'm currently using the sisterlock shampoo because I'm only two months in w fine hair. My loctician gave me a peppermint shampoo but it's doesn't leave any scents in my hair. My hair being so fine and short (5inches) dries fairly fast. I just noticed at random times throughout the week when I rub my scalp, it smelled like sweat which causes me to wash more often. At some point I experimented with not using the locking spray bc I thought it was causing it. I even tried putting scented oil on scalp but same outcome. Now I'm considering sebreese to clean the scalp that way I dont have to keep wetting the hair. So that's why I asked because if this is normal I may have to tap out of the beautiful journey.

    Hi, I hope all is well with you. I have a question about 6 day old interlocked sisterlocs. Is night bonnets good to use with no banding or scrunch ties? Is water spray a no no during these first few days or weeks? I do drink plenty of water and I eat good. I sweat alot tho and my scalp itch is random I believe its my own hair sticking my scalp. Also my loctician left some of my hair out (unlocked). She missed some hair to in interlocking. What should I do?

    Sis, sorry, but our scalp needs nourishment. Like some tupe of oil, ex. rosemary, tea tree, jojoba, castor oil, just to name a few. At the stage you're at, it won't affect the locking. Your hair would probably grow faster too.

      I don’t use oil in my hair. Can’t stand it. Even before locs. I haven’t put oil on my scalp since my undergrad days. It’s been 9 years. My scalp is/has been fine. But if it works for you, definitely keep using it!

      @DNB7227 Рік тому

      @TheRealKylaB Yes, my scalp absorbs oil fast, but it also grows fast as a result of me oiling it, also for me , if my scalp is dry, it falls out, idk why so I have to. To each its own, I guess.
