#DIYMicroLocs #Locjourney #teenagestage
Your locs look amazing on both sides. They are healthy & full. I feel so invested in your journey because I have been here since the beginning! Amazing job!
Your hair is, literally, perfect. You've done an amazing job!
I’m a sisterlock consultant. Your DIY locs are gorgeous. Your reti is on point. You did that!!
Hey Tay!! I loved this update and I can't believe it's almost been 2 years since you loced your hair. I used your grid and week long loc establishment video to establish my loc which I just finished last week. I am happy that I came across your video because it helped me so much to loc my hair. Like you keep saying can't nobody tell me nothing cause I know my hair is fire 🔥 thanks to you. So thanks again and keep the great content coming.
Your locs are absolutely beautiful! The fact that you installed them yourself.is just amazing to me!!! And your reties are on point!
Congrats!! It's amazing how time has flown. I can't believe 22 months have gone by since I watched your installation - the very best I've seen to date! Oh - those pristine parts - I'm really loving your locs. Gorgeous!!
Hi Tay, you are so gutsy to have established your own microlocs and maintain them too. They are beautiful!! How do you keep lint from building up in them? I see no lint in yours EVER!!
Loving the locs! I am now 19 months! I have learned so much from watching your loc journey. I still have some curly ends but I REALLY want them to close up. You are GORGEOUS!
I have been wearing faux locs for the better part of 2022. Within the past hour, I have gotten a strong urge to loc my own hair. I am three UA-cam videos in, have yet to watch a full video, and am completely in love with your hair!!!! I cannot take my eyes off of it and you are the one that is convincing me to get it done! YOUR HAIR IS GAWDJUSS!!!!
Thank you so much!
Getting into this scalp. This hair is goals for me.
Your hair has grown SO much. It is beautiful! Also, you have very pretty eyes!❤️
Hi Tay
Your locks are beautiful, and you have really taken care of them. Your hair has grown much. Keep up the good work.
Hi Tay
People like what you are doing. Your fan
I’m glad you took time to show us your before. Happy to see I’m not the only one with unruly locs that turn into jungle roots. Currently 9 months with 300 braid locs. I have a few spots in my hair where my hair refuses to grow with the loc 🙄 hopefully with time that changes because cleaning up parts is time consuming
Tayyyyyy...ur locs are FLAWLESS 🥰 🔥🔥
I see where I'm going wrong with mine...
I have braidlocs BUT I saturate my ENTIRE loc😩 you saturate the scalp👍🏼👌🏼 my next retie, I'm doing THAT👏🏼💯
I do believe that by wetting the entire loc, THAT is WHY I have sooo many loose hairs every time😖 and I have to retwist the hairs around the locs...ughhh
HARD LESSON LEARNED after 1yr now, but going forward I got this...
My first Locaversary was 4/5 and in 12 months I see a difference for sure 😊
They're starting to drop and length is showing, PLUS some have actually loced at the ends in the back nape area 🥳
Thx for always bringing the update and letting us get into your hair honey 😘
I've followed you from day 1 on my journey and my sister says my braidlocs look like micro locs now🥰
Tysm! yes I mist the scalp so that I can clean my parts a little better. Like you said, You got this!
@@TayLaDawn thx sis... getting ready to retie this afternoon 💪🏽💯
Yay 🎉Congratulations on 22months. Indeed;) you did an outstanding job! You’ve maintained your hair beautifully and it’s evident that it’s flourishing 😉🙌🏼💃🏿. Awesome! Your labor is not in vain. Thanks for sharing the beauty and the challenges of your beautiful journey. Blessings ❤️💐😍❤️🙏🏼
I use my iPad and my iPhone to FaceTime myself and then position them wherever I need them to retie.
Smart. I bought a 3 way mirror on Amazon . But you’re idea might be better
Your lock's look amazing. You are doing a fantastic job. Thank you for your service . Treat yourself and let somebody do it. the most you'll sit in that chair maybe 4 hours and you'll have a piece of mine.
That clean grid tho!!! Sooo fresh N so clean!!!🤩😎😍
Your locs are so so Beautiful and you do a great job of retighting them. Keep the videos coming 💗
You are maintaining your hair beautifully!!!
I need to go back and watch the journey. I watched the parting in its entirely and girl, you worked it out!💪🏽
Your hair looks SPECTACULAR! Giving me loc envy!
Absolutely beautiful!!!
I’ll be joining the sister loc club very soon. Super excited!
Thanks for an awesome tutorial ♥️
Your twist look professionally done. Man that’s a bunch of time dedicated to your locs 🥰🥰 it was worth it, ty keep sharing 🎉🥰🥰
I just watched your install video and then skipped to this one. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING TRANSFORMATION!! GO GIRRRRL!! Your locs are gorgeous!!!
Tay, Thank you for sharing your journey ..22 months it has been amazing to witness. You have done a magnificent job with maintaining your locs, they are absolutely stunning. ❤
I LOVE your hairline. You do an amazing job! IT'S THE FULLNESS FOR ME!
Bravo 🎉 gurl. That discipline can only come from a soldier gurl😅. Just amazing ❤
First of all no one is going to please you because you my dear is the goat. The perfectionist in you want work. Not being mean it's just the facts. Love watching work and I wish I had you as my loctician.
The way you threw your head back when you were done!!! That's exactly what I do as well 😂
My favorite locs to look at on here ♥️
Thank you for sharing this video. You made this look so easy. I will be starting my Loc journey next week and I will NOT pay no one to do this. Thanks for the step by step tutorial. This eerie is awesome
Great great great video!!!!!!!! The way I learned the 3-6-9-12 method real quick from you and understand how to get them to lay properly is amazing! I just started my locs with two strand twist. I’m gonna make my twist smaller so my locs can be as small as possible.
Gurl! I have been waiting foe this update and it was everything! You have such pretty hair and your hair color really came through. I just love your microloc journey.
I hope that the person that you find is caring and intentional about maintaining your beautiful work.
Also, I got to the part about having the final pass on the loc in a different direction so as not to put tension on the scalp. In that situation, my sisterlocks technician always puts the tool through but doesn't pull it through at the root. It's a little bump for like a week then I pull it through myself. So in the end all the locs still fall in the same direction
That actually crossed my mind! I'm going to start doing that going forward! Ty!
LET'S GET INTO THAT GRID GURRL!!
Your hair is so thick and beautiful! That makes me more inspired to go ahead and get micro locs because my hair is extremely thick. So, I figured they would look full like yours.
You've just gained a new sub because I will definitely be watching all your videos from when you began your micro locs and going forward.
Omg I just found your channel and I literally watched almost all of your loc videos🥰…I absolutely LOVE your hair😍…I plan on starting mine soon🤗
Your locs are doing SOO well!!! You have been taking very good care of them.
Hey girl hey! I’ve been following your journey for a while and you actually inspired me to do my micro locs. I used your grid system and everything lol I have about 250-275 locs and I’ve been locd since July 3, 2021. Thanks for sharing your journey with us! Happy 2 years 🥰
Wow! Your hair looks amazing and you do such a great job. I'm so impressed
I love how you keep you me grid to straight. My grid is all over the place and I’ve only done 4 reties.
Your hair always look good!!! Just beautiful!!
Absolutely gorgeous locs! I'm just starting my loc journey. Thank you for sharing and providing helpful info.
I don’t care for mini locks bc of the stress on your hair but honeyyyyyyyyy i really really like yours. You did that. It’s when you don’t re tie is where i have the problem. If you don’t get em did after the 6 wks man o man. A mess. Very very pretty.
Wow! I've been watching your updates since you started! I'm so proud of you!
I got my hair ties and headbands from Walmart, I believe. I love them because they are more of a stretchy fabric than the typical ouchless bands. Like a very thick opaque stocking and came as a set. I got black, but can't remember if they came in another color. There's no glue for them to pop when they get old. If I go to the store, I'll look for them and get a picture.
I use the same ones. They have them at dollar tree and some of the local beauty supply.
Greetings Tay! Wowee! Look at the length! Your locs are gorgeous! Love and appreciate your parts. I absolutely do not have sharp parts. No patience in that area! Thanks for sharing!
Her hair is looking sooo good!!! Omg! I remember when you first installed. Gave me the courage to do mine!!! Loovvee it 😍
You did an absolutely amazing job!
I always try to gauge how many rotations I need if I do a full rotation and I see that I only have enough for maybe about two more points I'll end with a two-point rotation so for instance I'll do 3 6 9 12 3 then back 12.... But you really do a wonderful job
Yessss, most of the time I do the same!
As much as I love the look of the 300+ microlocs! Baby I can't image diying this many!! Yours are beautiful 😍 I think I try ti limit mine at 150-200.
You did a bomb job because I wouldn’t have the patience 😂😂 you really keep yours nice neat and pretty
Ma'am...your hair looks GREAT!!! I always look forward to seeing your loc updates...reti or not!
YOU BETTA SWANGGGG THAT HAIR ...I bern following since your day 1 and your hair looks sooo good. I tried to do my own Sisterlovks and that was a NO-GO for me! I ended up getting a Sisterlock Consultant. We are neck & neck. I'm 23 months into my Journey, but my hair is fine so it's not as full as yours tho...but I love them the same. Thank you for the long video, it was relaxing watching you retighten your hair. Have a good day!
Thank you for watching and following my journey! Congrats on your 2 year as well!
Beautiful!!! I was waiting to hear which branch you were in when you talked about the collar uniform restrictions. When you said "cover," I was thinking Marine Corps, but you're in the Navy. So much has changed over the years since I was in. The Corps made us cut ours or wear a wig if we wanted to keep our length! Congrats on your hair journey! Learned a lot and subscribing. Your hair looks AMAZING, Sis!!!
Thank you so much for subscribing! And yes, there have been many changes since I joined as well. The times are definitely changing.
You did a good job and your locs looks very nice and full.
It’s probably a good idea to find someone to retie your locs for you just in case you don’t feel like it or you are unable to do it.
Your locs are very neat and they look good
wow Your locs are sooooooo pretty. i'm trying to get my hair locked now.
Omg! I've seen your install videos and a few others and you are my loc twin! Im only 6 months in but know mine will be similar to yours since it looks like yours now. I appreciate this video bc my loctician wants me to try to retie some of my hair for practice should I ever need. Do you think a 3 way mirror would help you? Thanks! I'm invested! I watched the entire video!
Awesome! I’m about to start mine.
Absolutely Gorgeous!! #givingmeLife! I can't wait to get my microlocks done!
Your locs looks great! Im loving those parts😊
Thank you making a non talkative 'bout that business interlocking video. This was very thorough and very sayisfying to watch.
Yaaayyyy your hair has grown so much!!! Today is my diy 2yr lociversary(started with 2 strand twist). I have quite a few dragon heads because .... I just do lol. I retie every 6wks with usually an inch. Definitely feel a little weight but my hair is also very dense. 🦄🌻🐞💞💜🧚♂️🐞🦄
Hi Tay
Your locs are the best that I ever seen
Your hair looks amazing!!! Been watching you since the beginning and I love your updates 😊
Thank you so much!!
Your Locs Are Beautiful! You got me wanting to just do it!
Locs are flourishing! The hang timeeeeee hunyyyy, luv it! You helped me start my journey.
They look so pretty! I've enjoyed this looong video!... wish I could split mine abit, my fronts are abit bigger than back but its fine..I think of the retie time and accept them as they are😂
I know this review video and your locs are beautiful. However, you should also do a video on how you have such perfect teeth. Awesome smile.😁
Yes! You did it!🙌🏾 wow your finesse😍 I watched your beautiful stunning hair retie from beginning to end. Your hair is beautiful you are beautiful❤you inspire me to start my lock journey. New Sub, of course.
Thank you so much!
All I can say is Wow! You are good.
Perfect hair, love it🙌🏿👌🏽😘
WowTay time has really flown by..I remember when you first posted your install video! Your locs are still 🔥..parts still crisp..you have done an excellent job maintaining your locs. I see the growth but at your 24 months loc video..can you do a side by side comparison? Thx
Your hair is so beautiful! But this video has helped me decide that microlocs aren't for me right now. It's gonna have to be traditional. I'm in med school, have a family, and my time isn't my own. I spend an entire day on my loose hair every few weeks as is. I figure it out. But I can't see myself being able to do what you do lady. I'm glad you do though! 💙 It's such a joy to watch and the results are _stunning._
First time visiting. Can't wait to see more of your journey!
I completely understand. It can be time consuming. Traditional locs are beautiful and is something I would consider if I was to do my journey over again! However, I do love the fact that it only takes me 2 days every 1.5 - 2 months for the upkeep of my microlocs, so it isn't too bad :)
YOU GO GIRL 🤩✨
Woww I’m amazed. I’ve seen people do traditional locs, this the first video where you are doing the sister locs yourself. Have you ever thought about doing them professionally?? I know you would have a lot of clients
Your hair is beautiful! Thank you for the update
I love it all, your hair is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
This is so therapeutic
Your hair looks amazing and you are an inspiration! :)
It look amazing!!!
Hey, not sure it anyone has mentioned this and not sure where you are currently located but Amazon has a 3 way mirror that folds up and hangs from the top of any door. Its been supper helpful in me completing my reties!! Think is called a barber mirror or something.
I may have to look into this. Ty
FANTASTIC JOB!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Looking boss. You did such a great job.
My daughter lives in Chicago and she pays $160 for her reties. It takes her loctitian about 3-3 1/2 hours to do hers. She has about 540 locs, they were quite long initially but as they loc further down the loc they're shrinking up. She's probably a few inches past yours right now. Maybe that'll give you some idea on cost....
Yes, that's awesome! Ty!
If you come to San Diego... You'll be probably be based at either...North Island, 32nd Street or Miramar! I got a Loctition for you ok!
I will def keep this in mind. Thanks Girl!
Locs are looking great!
your hair looks really great
your hair looks so beautiful girl! I actually used your video to help guide my loc journey although mine are not as neat by a long shot lol
question: have you ever considered doing a retwist instead of retie? why or why not? and do you condition your locs?
LOOKS AMAZING
Beautiful Job!!💕💕
Your locs looks great thank you for the update
I wanted to know if it's okay to do locs if you have alopecia do you think it saved my dermatologist and I like her because she's black she said it was okay to do it just don't do it tight and she's been working on my hair for quite a while and it has been growing back quite a bit yeah I've been using the biotin and for some reason it just didn't work and now we found out why it didn't work so hopefully once my medical issue is finally fixed it'll grow back even better
Your hair is amazing 👏
Look amazing and healthy.
Do you ever switch side with your parts? I like to rotate mine & my daughter's. I FINALLY got my sister locs by the way 🙌🏾 😌 🤗 But I did my 12 year old daughter's micro locs.
This was very helpful!
I want micro locks and idk what color to get because my hair is dyed ginger and pink
I love your locs💕
