    I combed, well ATTEMPTED, to comb out my 8 1/2 yr old locs in Jan. It took me three hours to comb out four locs. I lost it, LOL. I grabbed the scissors and cut them off. I have a 6 inch afro now. Just last week, I FINALLY found a hair routine and products that my hair loves!! Not sure if I will ever loc again, but a perm is NOT an option.

    You better than me. If I decide to cut my Locs.. I'm just going to let myself get a good amount of new growth and cut them off.

    I applaud you on your well thought out decision. Thank you for literally being a “compass” for us DIY locticians for the past 2 years. I love my locs and at 1 year in, I will always have them because it allows me a lot more time to do other things. My age played a huge part in the decision to Loc my hair in the first place. I will say locking my hair has taught me patience and endurance. It has reaffirmed my love of being natural, revealed my strength and has been a source of encouragement for my daughter. I thank you for showing this older black woman the way.

    This is me totally shocked that this was uploaded 5 years ago. Been thinking of cutting my 7 year locs but somebody suggested I comb them out. Your video is very informative and detailed. Thank you

    Combing my hair out dry worked for me. I tried it with the water and conditioner and the hair tangled and brake. Dry was better for my hair; 4b/4c hair.

    I removed my daughters locs dry and it worked great. She didn't lose a lot of hair like I did. I removed mine wet.

    Shooooot! It takes mental preparedness to take down braids! I can only imagine with locks.

    Thank you for this...your observations, lessons learned, and tips have made a huge difference as i'm preparing for my sisterlock "take-down/comb-out" journey.

    Combing out locs has always been fascinating to me. I didn’t even know it was possible until I decided to start locs myself. Can’t wait to see the rest of your (continuous) journey. Regeneration and change is good.

    I remember when you started combining out your locs years ago and thought “I could NEVER.” Lol Welp. Here I am! I’ve tested this method and so far it’s worked for me. I also have some build up so combing out dry helps the build up fall out easier. Thank you for this video!

    Hello JoyceMD, I took my locs out recently. I have been growing them from a twa about a few months after a big chop. My loc method was interlocking. I had thick locs and the only products I used on my hair was a watery Africa black soap solution and olive oil. Oh yeah and I had them for about 2 1/2 years . To take them out I used a soft plastic parting comb on dry hair . As I took them out, I noticed that I did not have lint or buildup and minimal shedding. What I was blessed with is sebum coated hair.

    I had locks for 4 years, 15 years ago. It took my mother and I 6 months to comb them out with a small wooden afro comb. It can be done and you will have plenty of hair at the end of it. I hope you keep going. Funny thing is. I'm now considering locks again.

    THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS! Your tips have helped me soo much and I greatly appreciate this. I've had mine in for a year, but I just want them installed differently. I told my mom I wouldn't cut my hair off once I joined the military, so i'm just trying to keep my promise with her, but also be happy with my hair! Thanks again for sharing this!

    I saw that my hair was starting to go thin in the back so I decided to take my locs out at the 8th month mark. I used the comb and detangling spray method. A lot of hair came out but I was surprised that so much of my hair has retained length.

    I used your method and it worked I took of my locs dry. I lost less hair compared to the amount I see for those you used wet method.

    Hey I have been following you from the beginning of your loc journey, so I was sad to hear you were combing them out, but I respect it. It's your hair and I wish you luck! 🤗
