    It’s about freedom for me to. Freedom from detangling. Freedom from moisture reverting my silk presses, freedom from shower caps LOL freedom to work out, to go on vacation, to get caught in the rain/snow/humidity, and my hair will keep its formmm. Freedom from constant styling and manipulation and freedom from mechanical breakage. I’m so excited for my loc journey 😭 I’m always trying to force my hair into a form it doesn’t want to be in. In 2023 I said enough is enough lol thinking about all of the extra time I’ll have bc I am not worrying about or styling my hair is bringing tears to my eyes LOL my hair has taken a lot of time, opportunities, and experiences from me. Not anymore!!

    Your locs are beautiful!! My loc journey began March 23rd. OMG! 2 months already! I started with the coil and didn't feel it either until I looked myself in the mirror and saw my inner beauty!!!
    I'm enjoying my new journey! Last week, I got my hair retwisted for our grandson's graduation and it stormed. I have to say, once it dried, my hair looked amazing. I'm now trusting the process!! 😊

    i dont have locs but i am a mini twist, flexirod twist and knotless girlie and videos like this make me thankful i chose "freedom" over hair (my real hair is also the best its every been my entire life now that i basically leave it alone exclusively). i also enjoy doing my hair, my "twist days" where I install my twists or take them down are my favorite times of the year. CHOOSE FREEDOM ladies!

    Looove this and thank you for sharing! You are absolutely rocking your locs and a whole vibe baybee!! I’m here for it!
    I’m 34 and have been natural for 17 years and all but 4 years of my life (13-17). Since I came to Atlanta almost 17 years ago for school, I have been in love with locs and mesmerized every time I see someone with them.
    I am that person that compliments strangers anyway, but I ESPECIALLY will stop people when I see them with locs! For yeeeeears I wanted them for myself, but went back and forth and back and forth again. But “somethin keeps pullin me back, me back” and I am fully ready to take the leap!
    I have a consultation on Tuesday with a local loctician and am super excited. I’m also going to be 35 in August and cannot wait to see what my hair will look like by then!

    this makes me so excited. i installed my own two strand twists with the intention of locs. i interlocked my roots and ive had my twists in for a lil over a week now. i am so loving it. i was a loose natural for almost 6yrs then wanted something different. it was either get locs or shave my head (i didn't wanna shave it) so i knew i loved the look of faux locs on me so after 4 different tries and several UA-cam tutorials i took a day to install my starter twists interlocs. it took me 14hrs and i am not sure how many locs i have, didnt count,

    You were that person. I really enjoyed watching your video and listening to your comments . I am on day 2 of my journey and after being undecided for almost a year, I finally made the big step.
    It’s gonna be me in 3 years 😂😂😂😂I am so excited.
