Woot-WOOOOOOT!!!! Congrats sis on your white coat ceremony! I'm finishing grad school next week as well. I just started my micro loc journey yesterday so my pics will be a bit "scalpy". 😫 Congrats to both of us on this major milestone in our lives! ❤️
Omg I was literally just thinking about retwisting my microlocs but I was trying to find some inspiration for how they would turn out. I have about 290 locs and couldn’t find anyone with a number close to mine. They look great ✨
Congratulations are in order! As always these twists look so good and your even parting is amazing. I watched this as I retied my own microlocs. You are hair goals as I am 8 months on my journey. 🥰❤️
I'm researching locs because I decided to get them as a long term protective style. I absolutely love your locs the length, size all of it. They are beautiful and you are stunningly beautiful. Thanks for helping me learn about what to expect when I do decide to get my hair twisted to loc. Take care!
I know this is super late but congrats, doctor!!! Thank you for this video. I’ve been researching and decided on braidlocs with palm rolling to maintain so this video helped a lot to let me know that (with a little gel for my texture), it is doable.
I was just looking at my microlocs saying to myself "damn. I really wanted that big bold loud disrespectful volume. I should have done them smaller" because it has a very sleek look. But whilst I'm saying that I remembered you and yours. I came on here not even remembering why I did lol then I saw you and your gorgeous sleek locs and felt better about mine not being as disrespectful as I wanted it to be❤.
Yep! volume is lovely, but we werent all born with high density, thick hair, and that is okay too. I have definitely grown to love my sleek locs. They are easy to care for, and they compliment my small head lol
@@NapsAreTheNewBlack very true! I have thick hair but not that much density I guess. I really love your locs. They're soooooo pretty and black. How do you get rid of buildup and lint? I do ACV and baking soda. I'm not sure if I'm doing it wrong, but it sure does have buildup in my locs still at the front and nape.
Your hair looks really good. I haven't seen anyone locs look so uniform before. My daughter wants locs but she is 13 so hopefully once she gets a little older I'll consider getting her them if she still asks for them when I think she is really sure that what she wants to do with her hair.
Congratulations on your White Coat achievement. Your hair is lovely and you did an excellent job. I enjoy watching your videos even though I'm not loc'd. I do however share your videos with my recently loc'd daughter. I hope you enjoyed your special day💜
Thank you so much for this video on retwisting loc’s! I have fast growing hair with a looser curl pattern. I interlock my hair once a month after each shampoo. I have found in two weeks I have half an inch of new growth all over my head and more down the center and back. My hair also grows outside of my loc’s. it is much easier for me to re-twist once a week with water and oil and I can keep my hair from traveling outside of the loc’s While I wait to shampoo and two point interlock my hair once a month as usual!
I loved all of these styles! I am almost 8 weeks with my braidlocs and I love them. I will try these styles for sure. I need to get me some more bobby pins though first lol
This video reminds me of older makeup videos I’ve posted. My orange cat would always be in the background. He recently passed away after my son was born. 17 years old 🥲💛🌈
This is the video I needed to see today! I'm almost due for my second retie/retwist & really feeling through my hair & noticing how some sections clearly grow much faster than others to the point where I'm wondering 🤔 did I even interlock this last time? Lol Your hair is soooooo beautiful & congrats on your white coat ceremony! What a great achievement! 🙌🏽💜🙌🏽
Can’t wait, can’t wait, can’t WAIIIITTTTTT 😭😭😂! First, congratulations on your white coat ceremony! Such an accomplishment. I LOVE to see it! Second, your hair continues to amaze me. Every time I listen to people telling me what can go wrong, I watch your videos and see what can absolutely go right!! Your hair is amazing and so is your personality!
1st of all, congratulations on your journey in the medical profession, *You are beautiful *I love the way you explained yourself * You have gained a new fan Sending hugs and love😘
Your locs are seriously so perfect and beautiful 😍! Thank you for sharing your routine with us. I just did my 2nd retwist on my daughter’s small locs and they came out great🤗!
@@NapsAreTheNewBlack You’re welcome 💕! She had been asking me for a whole year so I finally said I’d do them for her next birthday. Mind you, she’s only 5 so she’s a pretty determined little girl😂🥰! But she tells me every day that she loves them- 3 months in so far for her🤗!
Yes! It's nice to see you doing your hair I do my own and is very also, how do I know? people are surprised when I tell him I do my own hair. It's so satisfying.
Congrats on your white coat ceremony! I am considering getting locs. I am looking for the easiest way to maintain them myself, and I have been doing research on if retwisting is an option.
If you want to see the back of your head, all you need is a tripod, an HDMI adapter for your phone/iPad/camera to connect with your tv. Place the device on video, zoom in, set tv to the right hdmi setting and you will have a giant mirror zooming in on your parts.
Love Mel, For a sec I thought you wouldn't show him to us🤣 Luv the twisting & the purpose for it...quite ingenius to unrevel to interlock...I really can't imagine twisting mine, too much work for me
I have braid locs going on 2yra 4 months medium size… If I even decided then it would be micro locs instead because of more bigger… This is the first to see someone twist the micro locs instead of interlocking… maybe one day I may switch over who knows🤗
Hmm 🤔 You have given me something to think about. I’ve thought about incorporating this with my interlocking, but didn’t want to add product to my hair. Oil and water is cool though! I just hate the ideas of losing it all on wash day. I may try it at least once. TFS! 😃
Congrats on your white coat! Old video, but just found your channel. Fellow med student here. I want to loc this summer, and I'm thinking about micro locs. But you know how school is... Can you talk about (here or in another video) how you balance reties and other hair care and school? How doable is med school with micro locs compared to being a super involved DIY lose natural? TIA! 💙 Also, the idea of exclusively retwisting sounds appealing. Are the ppl you know with micro locs who retwist on yt?
Hello Gorgeous, I'm sorry i'm just catching up, I've been searching on the right locs to install. Watching your channel and the size of your locs were perfect! 👏💕 my question is, how did you start your lock journey? did you braid and twist first? Then palm roll as they start to mature? I'd appreciate your feed back.
Hey hun thanks so much for the video I really love your locs! I wanted to ask ive seen you use that avocado leave in conditioner most of your loc journey I have regular locs not sister locs so would you recommend me use this? Im trying to try different ones seems like when i try one i get that white residue and then i rinse it out immediately but i notice this isnt white its like clear so i am curious if its ever caused you build up?
I love it ❤️ I am only FOUR weeks into my 2stwist locs. My loctitian will be retighing in a few days. Ik it’s early, but I didn’t want to wash my hair w/o it. Anywho I would like a vid on retwist vs retigh… thx ✊🏽🙂
4 weeks is not bad in the beginning! I wasnt able to stretch my reties until i was 4 or 6 months in bc of slippage in the very beginning. You are doing great!
Your locs look so neat! I want to know, do you have thick hair? what type is your hair? I have fine 4c hair and no matter what I do it never looks as neat as your even after you washed it. Did you use braids or twists when starting locs? I currently have mini twists and I find that even in small sections I still get thin fly-aways 😢😢
Love your locs. I have my products and tools ready to go. Just waiting to attend a wedding in early June before I start my two-strand twists. I have watched all of your videos, but can't remember. Did you interlock your hair when you established your two-strand twists or did you wait to interlock at a later time? Thanks
Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊 on your white coat ceremony. Your hair is beautiful. I’m new to your channel. I just found you today. I need to look at how you started your journey.
Congratulations on medical school. What an accomplishment. Your hair is very pretty. Do you know how many locs you have? I want mines a little smaller.
Woot-WOOOOOOT!!!! Congrats sis on your white coat ceremony! I'm finishing grad school next week as well. I just started my micro loc journey yesterday so my pics will be a bit "scalpy". 😫 Congrats to both of us on this major milestone in our lives! ❤️
Congratulations! Unfortunately, I still have 3 more years until i finish my M.D. lol
Congratulations young Queens💞🎉 🎉
A warm congratulations to you both then! ❤️
What do you use to retwist just water & oil???💜🛼💜🛼
Could I use my aloe Vera & water mix💜🛼💜
Thank you!!! After 4 years of interlocking i think i can handle a retwist or two
This seems to be an excellent idea especially when plans changes your retie appointment.
Congratulations on becoming a doctor so proud of you.
Thank you so much! And I still have some years to go before I actually have my M.D. 😩
Omg I was literally just thinking about retwisting my microlocs but I was trying to find some inspiration for how they would turn out. I have about 290 locs and couldn’t find anyone with a number close to mine. They look great ✨
I just got my locs a month ago and I have 281 ☺️
Thanks! And you should definitely go for it 😊
@@wmignon same! i’m a month in and have 281 🥹 under 300 gang😜
Decided to start retwisting instead of interlocking. Free up some time. This video is right on time 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Beautiful job!
This was new to see a Retwist on Small Locs like this.
I Always see them Interlocked.
Thanks for Sharing.
Congratulations are in order! As always these twists look so good and your even parting is amazing. I watched this as I retied my own microlocs. You are hair goals as I am 8 months on my journey. 🥰❤️
Congratulations Doctor!! So proud of you 🎉🎉
Your locs look fabulous!You did a great job on your hair!

Hello, Mel - what a gorgeous cat!
Luv the video! Super informative and very helpful! Nice job! 👍🏽
Congratulations! And Thank You for the video!

Wow! Your locs are so long now😍 and they're looking so beautiful and well trimmed. I love it.
Thanks! Im definitely excited about the length

Thank you so much! The ceremony was beautiful 🥰
Your locs are beautiful. I needed this video as I just started my mini lock journey. Congratulations on your white coat.
Glad it was helpful! And thank you ❤️
Thank you for sharing! Definitely an option between reties
Your locs are so gorgeous! Thanks for sharing 💚
I appreciate you for watching ❤️
Wow the more they grow the more they are beautiful 🙏🏾😍😍. Can’t wait to see mine be like that 😊
Omg!! That came out so nice!! I too have considered twisting in between reties. Well you have put the "why" behind my "I wonder?" 😂 Thank you Queen ❤️
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
All I know is, your locs are so nice!!! Congratulations, on EVERYTHING!!!🤗😉
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I'M SOOOOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!

Thanks 🥰 and im sure your locs are beautiful
Your locs are seriously so perfect and beautiful 😍! Thank you for sharing your routine with us. I just did my 2nd retwist on my daughter’s small locs and they came out great🤗!

Do you know what size your locs are? Or part size? Your locs look like the perfect size
Congratulations on medical school. What an accomplishment. Your hair is very pretty. Do you know how many locs you have? I want mines a little smaller.
Very neat.. How many do you have?, & what size are they?
