Some tips! :) - Longer, thicker locs? Consider a wig with more volume (like the second wig in this video, afro, etc.) instead of a bone straight wig - Longer, thicker locs, newer locs with thicker ends? Try smaller flat twists. I did 12. Maybe try 14-20 - Twists are easier (for me) to do than braids. - Twists are easier to compress than braids. - Twists are more malleable; they’re easier to bend at the ends than braids.
I am an actress and I've been struggling going back and forth in my mind whether or not I should cut my locs off so I can wear wigs to have a better chance at auditions. I'm so glad that I came across this video, now I don't have to cut my locks and I feel relieved. Thank you 💗
Same, except I'm not an actress, I want to be a cosplayer. But I have thick, a bit beyond shoulder length locs, and I wanted to cut them off because I can't put on the wig
I've got shoulder-length loc's, and I'm a week away from a beautiful romantic holiday with my boo..... I was thinking what I can do to add some spice to our vacation, and you have just given me an amazing idea what to pack in my case.......☺️ ...... Not cozplay, bedroom play 😊... Thank you so much, I'll be off to get my first ever wig in the morning.❤
Those wigs look so good on you 😍! Thanks for the tutorial I have very long locks like you but the size of thick yarn.this helps since I have a world of wigs I've never used or worn yet that im dying to wear.
I’ve never worn a wig before, I didn’t think it would look right with locs, but okay. I’m not cutting my locs but I want to give them a break. I like feeling free and giving my hair fresh air, for growth. I also don’t like gels or edge control because of the build up, and it doesn’t work with my hair texture. How do you scratch your scalp wearing a wig though? I like that you made it look so flat on your head with all that hair. That Bob wig is the only wig style I would wear, very nice taste. Beautiful!
Thank you for this video. I gave away a bunch of (good) wigs some years ago when I had traditional locs. I have since installed sisterlocs but missed my wigs for my incognito days. Guess I’ll be back in the wig game again! 🙏🏾
omg, how did i just come across this now?? thank you so much!!! love the technique of bringing them back up through the parted twisted sections to lay flat!!! that is genius!!!
Thank you for this, I have volumous microlocs. Though they arent as long as yours, due to the volume Ive always struggled with the helmet look whenever I tried to wear wigs (most because id pick the wrong type of wig). You saved me!!
Watched this yesterday and tried it today right before work. I have locs that are a little thicker but about the same length as yours. When I tell you the twists did it....HONEY! I had some haters today at work. 😂😂😂 Cuz they know I have locs and my wig install looked better than theirs. 😂 SN: I haven't had a retwist in a few months so I have some loose new growth. I pulled some of it forward and flat ironed it and left that part out of the wig cap. Then I pulled the loose hair back over the top of the half wig and put some hair clips and a headband over the space where my hair blended into the wig. People were saying it looks like my natural hair. Thank you for sharing this method. ❤
These are the comments I live for!🥹 I’m so glad my video was helpful. And that was so smart to do what you did with your loose natural hair to help blend. Wish I could’ve seen what the haters saw; I know you ate them up!!🤪🥰
There's no way I could do this because I have a tender scalp. I always wear my hair down. My locs are the same length as yours. Your hair is so pretty! Thanks for the video.
Been wanting to figure out how to do this forever!!! Not sure how it's going to work out for me, though, because my sisterlocks are knee to calf length, but I'm definitely gonna give it a try!!
@@ImaniGoodridge Doesn’t take that long at all! I live in the Gulf South so all I have to do is walk outside on a sunny day and within the hour I’m dry. (I’ve also thought about hanging my hair out the car window on the way to work, but it might make too many cars wreck from the stares. LOL!!!!!) I’m actually having a hard time finding some of those extra large wig caps down here and so far, *no* wigs with extra large caps. If you know of a company that sells any online, I’d appreciate the tip.
Thank you so much I have sisterlocks the same length as you and I want a curly wig for a cosplay I’m doing this is so helpful do you know the brand or your curly wig?
Yeah I want to do something different as well I’m gonna start doing wigs sometimes. I have long dreads that are to my back. They aren’t too thick but their a good size and I always wondered if people with dreads could do wigs now I know. Thanks for this video❤️
This is sooooo much better than your first video of how to tuck your dreadlocks under a wig. You had an ANT shape (hump) in the back of that first video and on this video with the short wig, and on both videos your dreads in the front were still exposed…A for effort and again much better than that first video.
I could not do this at all. My braids are just too thick 😭😭(medium box braids) 💔I want to switch up my hair lately but I don’t want to take them out yet
Thanks! I'm gonna test out the theory: will I get more "play" from black men like I did before locks! It's a running theory among my natural hair group
I want play from those who want me in every look that I have. I hate that SOME of "our" men only think we're beautiful when we look non-black! Although, lately many are embracing us more than in years gone

Honestly I think she
I
Yyooyyyyyyyooyoy
I’m so late but did you use a larger wig cap? I can’t quite see the name on the packaging of the first wig to look it up
I don't know who Halle and Chloe use for a hairstylist but whoever puts their wigs over their locs are magicians.

Yessss girl this is the only thing that's stopped me from getting locs
Same, except I'm not an actress, I want to be a cosplayer. But I have thick, a bit beyond shoulder length locs, and I wanted to cut them off because I can't put on the wig
Yes! I didn't think it was possible. My locs are waist length. I want to try something different, but im not cutting my locs. Thank u! 😊
So glad you found this helpful! Definitely let me know how it goes if you give it a try 😊
Same mine are in the middle of my back tho. I'm going to def try it.
First of all you’re gorgeous. Skin is popping & glowing. Locs are flawless & thanks for the tutorial.
✨✨✨
I wouldn't mind seeing more segments about this.
Ohhh how does a wig try on haul sound?
@@ImaniGoodridge yessss girl!
Amazing, at first I was skeptical but it came out really beautiful.
Thank you so much. I have trying to find a good video from someone with long locs. This was so very helpful.
Now imagine all the braid patterns you can do with a frontal/full lace wig... in love with my locs in a totally new way! I needed this so BAHD 🤩📘📚🥰🆙️

Hi, did you try it?
I’m going to a gala and thinking about wearing a wig for a different look. Glad I found this video, will be trying. Thanks!

Knee to calf length?!?!? Godspeed 😩😂 Your hair must take forever to air dry. I’d be interested in knowing how it goes!

Do you have a link to the wigs you bought?

Where did you buy your wig cause the ones I found are always too small
I could not do this at all. My braids are just too thick 😭😭(medium box braids) 💔I want to switch up my hair lately but I don’t want to take them out yet
"Good DAYSSYSYS "
Could you try a pixie cut wig ?
Do you buy a large cap?
I thought that the twist look so cute
You are freakin gorgeous
Thanks! I'm gonna test out the theory: will I get more "play" from black men like I did before locks! It's a running theory among my natural hair group
