I just started my locs today 😭 I know this gone be a long journey bc my hair is short so I know this short stage is gone be crazy
Me too girl !!!! But honestly the first time o started my locs journey my hair was very short and I only remember three days of me having a bad hair day lol tbh I don’t really remember the ugly phase it’s like starter locs then boom I got hang time lol
Same here! Restarting my journey after cutting my locs back in December... I regret it but am very appreciative of the experience.
how they doin now
How are they?
@@laurenlocd3180 I just started my loc journey but my hair has always been short. Does having locs make a difference in how it grows? People keep telling me that ima have hang time but like why would it grow now if it has never grown before lol.
You're going to cry during the process... facts...im on day 3 wanting to cry. I cut my hair all off and starting at a very short length. I have to watch theses videos right now
Mine were beautiful when I first started. It’s the frizz that will get you. I’m usually natural and not self conscious about my hair but I hate looking like I don’t take care of myself and that’s what I currently look like sadly lol I haven’t cried yet but it’s frustrating
This is me right now. Kind of wish I decided to do the locs before I decided to cut my hair but we more
How are your locs now
you crying over something that stupid?
Right I started my locs yesterday I had 14 inches of hair. My loctician kept telling me how healthy my hair is and asking me why I wanted to start locs. My twists are like 3 or 4 inches long because of shrinkage 😫
If I'm lying I'm flying, and I'm sitting down 😂
"They lyin..so you don't need to be watching liars" 😂😂 great vid lady
Omg I literally cut my hair bald 4 months ago & now im interested about the loc journey😭& Ik ima have baby twist so I had to come to somebody more realistic! & your really started from scalp so it make me feel better😭❤️love your hair btw🥲🌸
The size of your locs is going to grow out gorgeous! Thank you for showing your short starter locs.
Just stared mines today. It’s very short and looks weird, but I’m going to trust the process!
Ouu chile same idk what to do
Welcome to The Journey... I will be following your journey... There is NO way to avoid frizz... I just made a year... Your locs are GORGEOUS... Thanks for sharing
thank you! and i realized that lol. I'm still embracing it and learning to accept the frizziesss
Month 3 and my hair is sooo frizzy 😂 and it’s a few that wanna stick up but hey I let them do what they want lol I’m here for it!
I'm 2 months in! Best decision I ever made for my hair! New subbie
I’ve had 3 sets of locs on long hair and I went and chopped them off! Now I’m thinking about locing on short hair but I’m so skeptical about it! This video definitely helped 🥰 thank you
I just started my locs on feb 5th and been growing my hair since oct 2019 so our hair growing together. That’s cool I’m definitely subbing
Thank you!!
Not gonna lie...this video was extremely funny! 😭😂 great authentic content.
New sub! I’m planning to start my loc journey next month! I’m so glad I’m finding other women who are starting around the same time as me !
“If u ain’t gone pay to get my nails done den Leave me alone”😭😭
My gurl😂😂😂
“If I’m lying I’m flying and I’m sitting down”🤣💀
If you're really trying to go all natural with locs you should really only use water to retwist your hair and don't use any gels or wax to do a retwist
Thanks for the advice. I’m at the exact stage you were when you started your locs. Bald head honey! 😂 I will be starting my locs on Tuesday. Wish me luck!
Its going to be the best decision of your life!
She said”If I’m lying, I’m flying…Lol!! Sis come through 💝
Grew my hair for 5 months just to skip the frizz stage I’m only going into my 3rd week and I’m happy with them the shrinkage is crazy they were about 4 -5 inches wen I got them twisted they shrink to a measly 1 inch 😂
She said if I’m lying I’m Flying imma use that 😂😂Then she said if they say they don’t have frizzy...”You don’t need to be watching them”😂😂😂❤️I’m so tickled ...I can’t wait for my locs go grow😪
Valentine Unique 😂😂
New subbie! Your locs are GORGEOUS! I’m 2 months in! 🤗

I love how funny u r 😂😂❤. Ur video was very helpful i have very short hair so i got starter locs cuz i always wanted dreads like my brothers❤
I just started it’s just day 3 for me n I haven’t taken off my hair wrap/ cap. I think your locs are beautiful! I will keep u u posted.Thanks for the good advice! 😊 see u soon
About to do my starter locs. I'm giving myself two days because I want my sections as neat and straight as I can.
Not much videos showing two starter locs and I'm happy to have found your channel to see the progress ❤️
Good video and congrats on your loc journey Queen im on my second loc journey i started mine April 18 2020 so excited stay loc'd one love!!!!!!
Very informative video. I am 6 months loc'd and just started my bf locs that are short like your were. Thanks for the tips!
Month 3 is the stage NOBODY tells us about. I’m in month 3 and currently dying. My hair is very soft and shiny and pretty. But right now it just looks so bad. I wrap my frizz too but it does not help. I just said fuck it, I let my locs stick up, I lay my edges and do my make up. I’m over trying to hide it at this point lol
How are your locs now
Locs don’t have to be beat it’s a natural hairstyle
@Lexmix exactly what it did for me ! Thank God my hair grows fast but i had to get used to the actual natural look & letting my hair do it’s thang! Currently 2yr 2mo🎉
Ur just going through the ugly faze I started mines 2 months ago going onto 3 and mines doing the exact same thing yours doing
Ayo you're hilarious said we dont need to be watching liars 🤣🤣
Thanks for sharing your journey 🤗 I start next week, with 1 inch hair 😂 woop woop
Well you inspired me!
I just started my locs yesterday!!! 😊
I just started my locs about a month I’m so happy they are growing
I just love your accent. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I love your personality and thanks for the insight. You have a New Subscriber 💕
Aight I see ya. I’m here for the journey. I’m 3 months in myself. New Sub🚨 Stay 🔒
yes! we gone do this together!
Yea my hair is probably shorter than when you started the back ain’t even twisted yet 🤣 but the rest is doing very well. Idc for how they look cause i wear a scarf like everyday lol and i have no problem with that lol
I just started mines today with the rubberband method and I'm just gonna wear braids over them for style.
Why do I like month 3 ! Girl the frizz I love it in the clip but that’s me….
I just started my loc journey 2 weeks ago. I use the dry shampoo spray when it starts itching. And I use rose water for moisture. I may switch from the dry shampoo spray to something else because I can’t quite get it out like I want to.
How's your locs?
Thanks for sharing. New subbie 🙋🏽♀️. Your hair is growing so fast o
Thanks for subbing love!
Started mine 3 days ago girl I’m just trying to embrace it 😂😂👀
I’m starting my locs soon after my big chop I’ve been trying to find the journeys on really short locs your length is very close to mine
I hope you started them love! watch my latest post (One year update) I hope that gives you some inspo

How did u get your hair to bud fast???

Thankyou for sharing. I’m starting with short hair too.
I'm just tryna figure out is it normal for my hair not to lay down. I started with a TWA and I'm in month five. And 2 weeks into a retwist, my hair starts sticking up. 🙃
You are too cute! Thanks for your honesty!
what parting pattern did u use? I love the way it’s been growing out on you!!
I'm showing my daughter your videos. I'm subbed
Oh wow! thank you so much
Did you start off with the small comb coils are medium coil coils?
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS BIG FAN 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
You basically started your locs around the same length I started mine.
I’m ready to start my loc
How did you retwist it at this stage? What products?

Thanks for the motivation
You are so welcome!
I started my locs March 3rd 2020
I was going back and forth about braiding my starter locs but I said I was gone wait.
For "protective styling"?
LoveAkii Locs yes... but I heard it slows the process... and my hair like 4a so I said wouldn’t do it now..
Would you suggest rice water ?
How many locs you have?
New subbie 😍

They lying and you don’t need to be watching liars lmao
I love this video & I Think the frizz looks super cute lol ! follow us one instagram @cocogalhairmetics
I had a question about what you said happened with your twists unraveling when you put the passion twists in. If you start your twists off twisting to the left isn’t of the right, will that minimize the unraveling? My kids are mixed and I’ve been braiding their hair and said I’d be a pro by the time they are old enough to need one.
