  • @Qochemist
    @Qochemist  12 років тому

    You made perfect sense....I honestly didn't keep track of time... I did it while watching tv but I would have to say it didn't seem any longer than when I roll my locs the other way....

    that style is so cute...great for summer to keep your locs off of your neck. And the curl was amazing, I like the elongated curls.

    You are very welcome... After I got all the inquiries while trying to explain it to people at the NNHMD event on Saturday I knew I needed to do a video to explain it more clearly :)

    love the style and technique. who would've thought an arts and craft tool could come in handy for sisterlocks. i'm going on 14 months for my mines and I will have to try this. still new to the whole styling procedure for myself. doing my best now to master curling with the rods I've done for the lst time myself

  • @Qochemist

    Very informative video. A nice new take on pipe cleaner curls. I love how seemingly endless the possibilities are with this super cheap item. Keep the videos coming:-)

  • @Schequita
    @Schequita 10 років тому

    This one was really helpful to me... I was thinking about cutting my locs off, until I ran into this video... God, my husband, and you saved my locs... Thank you for being here...

    Just tried this style and loved it! Instead of being stuck in the house or under a dryer all weekend, I was able to go to church, on a date, etc, all while my hair was drying and curling!!!!! And, once I took the pipe cleaners out, my curls were gorgeous. I was worried that the wire from the pipe cleaners might snag or get stuck in my locks, but it wasn't a problem. Thanks for the great directions!

  • @BeccaBooLuvzU2
    @BeccaBooLuvzU2 11 років тому

    Thanks for the tip. I'm 2 years natural and researching locs but that a tip I can use with my two strand twists! I cant wait to get to the store :)

  • @celbjade129
    @celbjade129 11 років тому

  • @dovedarby

    How cool! I've seen people wear their pipe cleaners but didn't know how they applied them.

  • @MsMissIda
    @MsMissIda 12 років тому

    Wow, how cool...can't wait to try this! Thanks for being such a reliable source!

  • @Qochemist
    @Qochemist  12 років тому

    You are welcome... It was easy enough to do... Once you get pipecleaners in you can get as creative as you like :)

  • @Qochemist
    @Qochemist  12 років тому

    I agree... with such a cheap and easily accessible item you can do so much.... Hope we the craft industry doesn't get wind of all these great uses for pipecleaners and drive up the price :) Thanks for watching!

  • @Kimberlocs
    @Kimberlocs 12 років тому

    I will def be trying this. Wonderful idea. This will be a great style for my summer vacation.

  • @Bratzdollneya
    @Bratzdollneya 11 років тому

    This is very cute. Although my locs are shorter than yours, I am definitely going to try this. I hope i can bend and pin them up just as cute as you did! Thank you!!!!

  • @Qochemist
    @Qochemist  11 років тому

    Awwww....that's so sweet of you to say! I am glad to know I have inspired you and congrats on holding steady for 26 months strong :)

  • @lanafalana
    @lanafalana 11 років тому

    Wow, I like it! My hair is natural, 5yrs, but only for a few more hours. I'm finding all these cool styles after deciding I need to relax my hair again. I did everything but locs, though locking seems to make the hair grow much faster. Mine would definitely be down my back by now. I just cannot spend the days required to maintain 2 strand twist. I've grown weary of the long hours/days of managing my hair, the shrinkage & long hours of managing my hair (repeated on purpose). I want to try this.

  • @lewdona
    @lewdona 12 років тому

    Very cute and it looks fairly simple to do..........It's definitely a must to try.

  • @Qochemist
    @Qochemist  12 років тому

    Yay!! I am always glad when I can provide some clarity :) You are very welcome....

  • @DollyMat
    @DollyMat 12 років тому

    The style is beautiful and very afro-centric. I've never ventured out without a scarf with pc's in but will try this method it also looks like you will get a more consistant coil this way.

  • @623goingnatural
    @623goingnatural 12 років тому

    Omg!!!!! I was just thinking I wanted some kind of new style to do with my locs and BOOM!!!!! Here you go!!!!! Thx a bunch!!! Can't wait to do them.

  • @Shawnta715
    @Shawnta715 12 років тому

    Neat!!! You might have actually found a way for me to love pipe cleaner curls!!

  • @Qochemist
    @Qochemist  12 років тому

    Thanks... I hope this works out for you... Please let me know... I really like this style and while my locs are not as long as yours I do hope they will be one day so it will be nice to know that I can continue to do this style even when they are longer....

  • @Tamed100810
    @Tamed100810 12 років тому

    Well............ I DID THE STYLE!!! AND IT CAME OUT SO CUTE! THE FUNNY THING IS, IS THAT EVERYONE THOUGHT I CUT MY LOCS!! LOL! THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VID!! ;-D,

  • @LuvnDaNaturalMe
    @LuvnDaNaturalMe 10 років тому

    Awesome!! I have tried pipe cleaners twice and the curls were all tight. I now know its because of the technique I used (wrappng the locs from the bottom up like I am using a perm rod). This is extremely helpful.

  • @hadassahmiller5189
    @hadassahmiller5189 8 років тому +2

    I tried this 3 times and they came out great!!! Someone did them for me at first. I actually did the last set for my daughter's wedding and guests stopped me several times to find out what I did to my hair and to compliment.

    • @Qochemist
      @Qochemist  8 років тому

    • @Qochemist

    • @Qochemist
      @Qochemist  9 років тому

      After you wrap all you rlocs around the pipecleaners you just bend the pipecleaners into a pincurl shape... There is really no exact way to do it... you just decide how you want to bend them and do it... Hope that helps...
