I am convinced when I see a "dislike(s)" it's from someone who's spent lots of money on having someone else do their install or it's a loctition and they're mad that you're showing others how you've created such beautiful professional looking DIY locs.... Oh well!!! Keep up the great work😁!❤
I'm so happy Tay LaDawn referenced your channel. So helpful! I feel even more confident to install my inter locks myself because of your and others DIY channels!! I'm sectioning my grid today!!!!! Thank you!!
Thank you for these videos! I wanted sisterlocks and was wanting to pay big money, but it's through watching your DIY videos that made me realise I could do this myself!! Thank you!!!
Loved your video. I'm planning to do micro locs this year (turning 30!) and might do them myself. Also I'm originally from the Bronx and hearing the ambulance made me miss my family and the city life!
I am getting my sisterlocks installed Tomorrow March 2nd. I have low density hair so my consultant thinks we should be done the same day. I am excited to get them. I looooooove your videos and kudos to you for taking the time to show everyone how to do this DIY. I want to hopefully learn how to re-tighten it myself after the first year.
I'm 4 weeks installed of micro braidlocs. I looooove them. I went to a loctician to install them and will also let her do my retwists but I swear I should have done this a long time ago. I already had hair color prior to the locs but it really makes them pop and many times I'll do a flat twist out or braid out on it and it's so pretty.
Looking good so far! Speaking from experience, your hair will definitely shrink some more. It's all a part of the process. I had Sisterlocks for about a year and a half before I cut them all off. I started them in April of 2010. I have traditional locks now, which I started in April of 2018.
Frizz makes sense with sauna, dry sauna, hot yoga, vigorous exercise which are all amazing choices! Some heads simply will not hold the grid and that's fine. You did a great job!
Dr. Bronner soap will save you a lot of money. Use that instead off the sister lock shampoo. Works like a charm. And i am so waiting on the grid video. Please when will it be coming. Love from Europe.
Thank You for the professional and informative DIY micro loc Video I Created my sizing chart today the only modification is I colored my boxes so I can see the sizes better against my head look forward to your next video !
Thank you so much for your very detailed and informative micro loc vids. I’m in such awe of your locs! Please keep the vids coming. You’ve inspired me to do my own locs. Many blessings to you💕.
You are such a great teacher. I like the way you tackled every step. So much knowledge and information. Thanks for sharing SHETOWEL with the world and for being such a great ambassador 🙏🙏🙏
Yayyyyyy thank you thank you thank you soooo much for this video ive been waiting for this. And also you are the only one i know that actually created a loc parting tool. I researched this everywhere and nothing. You're great and work is phenomenal keep doing a wonderful job👍🏾👏🏾😊
Yet again another wonderful video your hair is so beautiful. I am in the process now of getting all the supplies I need to do my hair. I'm very excited. Thank you QueenEleem
When I had dreadlocks I would only wash with apple cider vinegar for the first 6 months. Then I would use sulfer 8 1x a month to help with the itching.
Amazing! Thank you so much. I'm inspired and I think I'll take advantage of this covid lockdown to start my locs! I have a LOT of breakage. Do you suggest that I clip my ends before I get started?
I had a lot of breakage too when i started but I didn’t clip my ends bc I wanted to retain all my length. But if you do clip your ends then you’ll have less hair to loc and you’ll save time.
@@QueenEleem One maybe is to upload it to Esty I thinknit is and maybe charge one dollar I know that someone else had uploaded a pattern just to keep the format consisted and the charge for the pattern was one dollar consisted just a thought idea a
Multiple sizes using my “graduated sizing algorithm”. My loc sizes are between 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch squares with the majority between 5/16-3/8 inch. I detail this in my grid video but will be creating a mini course just to my updated method of creating a grid with multiple sizes that are specific to the location on the head.
No you don’t have to. But you can if you like. When starting the locking process you should probably wait a year or so before you cut your locs bc you don’t want to disturb the loc matrix.

Lol thank you!
Beware of sweaters, scarves, and hats besides towels. 💞💞💞 Your hair diaries are great💞💞💞
Good advice!
Hair goals and the frizziness does not bother me. Thanks for the video. My daughter wants locs so bad after seeing your videos.
I love how you are so very detailed in everything you do. I appreciate the time you put into yor videos.❤

Hey fellow New Yorker 👋 yep didn’t even notice there was a siren until I was editing 😂

That’s exciting! Welcome to the locd fam 😊😊🙏
QueenEleem It took 15 hours and I have 396 tiny locs! So happy ❤️❤️
This video was extremely helpful in creating sizing for grid establishment. Thank you for the step by step instructions.
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching 🙏
Girl! I love your locs! I want to do this to my hair. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us.

Your hair is very beautiful..... Thank you for the update
13:42 start of how to make the tool.
Looking good so far! Speaking from experience, your hair will definitely shrink some more. It's all a part of the process. I had Sisterlocks for about a year and a half before I cut them all off. I started them in April of 2010. I have traditional locks now, which I started in April of 2018.
May I ask, what we’re some factors in your decision to go the traditional route after having sisterlocks?
Frizz makes sense with sauna, dry sauna, hot yoga, vigorous exercise which are all amazing choices! Some heads simply will not hold the grid and that's fine. You did a great job!
Dr. Bronner soap will save you a lot of money. Use that instead off the sister lock shampoo. Works like a charm.
And i am so waiting on the grid video. Please when will it be coming. Love from Europe.
Coming shortly. It’s already been shot but I may need to do a bit of a reshoot to make sure all the info is in there 😅
Me too...
Oh let me buy that instead sisterlocks shampoo taking too long to come anyway

Oh and I use pillow cases to dry my hair but I would get that towel just to do head wraps with!
Very informative. Btw, love your locs.
Absolutely genius and deceptively simple. Thank you so much for sharing.
I think you are Awesome! Loving your personality and your videos! Keep em coming!💖
Absolutely LOVE you!! Awesome job with your hair girl 👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks so much for making it plain for us 😊
So....at the moment my printer is not working and I was like “screw it, won’t have a sizing tool”. Just made one on hand. I only put 1/4 and 1/8
You’re just so beautiful! Love your individuality.
Thanks Queen E! I made it! Very good instructions.
👑 👑 👑
Many Sisterlocker's say shaking you hair out a few times a day helps to shake most of the lint out and covering it at night.
That sounds like a good idea! Thanks for the advice 😊🙏
OH YES! Love the hair......it's beautiful.
Love this video! Very helpful! How does your hair react to Bikram Yoga?
PS You are a great teacher!
The humidity causes the locs to swell but bc I’ve been braiding and banding before yoga it doesn’t change my overall style In any noticeable way.
You did awesome girl!!
Thanks for the info. Love you hair.
I have that same towel in the same color! Love my Shetowel!!
Same! It’s such a lifesaver
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I am inspired and want to start my own micro locs, can you share a video on how you did your parting?
Thank you for watching 😊 yes I definitely will
You did an excellent job ty
Beautiful 👩🏾🦱👩🏾🦱👩🏾🦱👩🏾🦱👩🏾🦱
U r adorable 🥰
Amazing! Thank you so much. I'm inspired and I think I'll take advantage of this covid lockdown to start my locs!

I know that you gave insight on how to do ones own measurement tool I was wondering if you could upload what you the chart you did for others to print
Hi latrice, that’s a good idea I just wouldn’t know where to upload it so that it keeps the same scale when printed... I’ll look into it 😊
@@QueenEleem One maybe is to upload it to Esty I thinknit is and maybe charge one dollar I know that someone else had uploaded a pattern just to keep the format consisted and the charge for the pattern was one dollar consisted just a thought idea a
Maybe i missed it in the video somehow but what size did you use for your locs?
This is the exact question I've been scanning her videos for
Multiple sizes using my “graduated sizing algorithm”. My loc sizes are between 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch squares with the majority between 5/16-3/8 inch. I detail this in my grid video but will be creating a mini course just to my updated method of creating a grid with multiple sizes that are specific to the location on the head.
@@QueenEleem thank you for replying
Sister locs and micro locs are diff in size
An itchy scalp may be caused from continuous use of a shampoo that’s too alkaline
Can you link to the towel and the Other youtuber you mentioned?
Thanks for letting me know I forgot it! Just added
How did you calculate the square inches of your head?
Great video! Which size did you use for the majority of your locs?
5/16ths and 3/8ths of an inch are my average sizes
QueenEleem Thanks!
Is the sizing card just PDF or can it be mailed to me? I don't have a printer to print it out to use
Just a pdf currently
@@QueenEleem OK. Thank you
Such beautiful hair! #newsubscriber
Aww thank you for subscribing 🙏😊
Do you have to cut your ends while in locks?
No you don’t have to. But you can if you like. When starting the locking process you should probably wait a year or so before you cut your locs bc you don’t want to disturb the loc matrix.
You should market these rulers. I’d buy one.
