  • Hey y’all,
    I did a thing. I trimmed my locs. I had my friend trim my locs for me instead of going to the hair salon and I actually ended up liking it. I just show you how I did it and how much of it I actually cut. If you have any questions let me know!
    Love and blessings to you all!

    You locs look beautiful after the cut! The first cut is always the most difficult, but once it's done you have to continue. My first trim/cut was in 2020 at my 11-year mark. I cut off roughly 12-inches and couldn't have been happier. All the ratty ends were gone as well as the extra weight. Now, a cut here and there doesn't bother me at all. I'd much rather have healthy locs as opposed to long stringy locs.

    I think you would’ve been more satisfied with your ends if he cut fewer locs at a time and cut them on a diagonal. When I cut my locks before I cut each of them on a diagonal and palm rolled the ends. It prevented it from being blunt.

    Believe me baby girl yes i freaked out when i cut my locks to my milocks about your lens some a little bit longer and let me tell you they worth it in the end there was something about that feeling of omigod what did I just do so I cut about 8 of my locks from the back because I was like okay it's in the back no one should see it and when my undercut girls it'll look hopefully amazing then I have two tone colors with with my blocks that I have grown out and you know because I colored my my locks but anyway I freaked out the whole time but I said well they're just locks they meet they meant a lot because it took time to grow them but I'd rather lose these in the back then having to lose summon the second middle part or the top part of my locs I would freak out then because this is my second set and I cut my hair the first year because it wasn't growing doing what it was supposed to do I grew my hair again and got it locked and it's been 6 years now and I'm very happy but as they say here today gone tomorrow so as long as I don't find any more than and lox I'll be alright and as long as you keep them at the same length you should be alright to I love your channel by the way you're the closestable to follow when you go back to Jamaica or when you go to Jamaica I'm from Jamaica Kingston Jamaica born and raised Big ups keep going Miss Morgan keep keep going my dear.

    My first thought was "why is he cutting her hair like that!!!" Im sorry but, he messed your hair up. He tried to cut too much at once, that's why the scissors broke, he didnt even up the back at all. When you brought it to the front, over your shoulder, you could still see that it was uneven. He just hacked it.
