    Nice locs!😍 I'm trusting, girl. I'm trusting. I'm in the "babyloc" stage. Just passed the 2 month mark. And, I've experience a little unraveling, and slippage, which is a bit unnerving. I had, NONE, @ my first retie!!! My loctician said that I'd likely experience some before my second retie, but, still.😵 Anyway. Congratulations on reaching YEAR 1 of !

    @11:37 wait, huh... I'm confused. How does ur hair actually loc if u take the ends out like that??? I'm 2 weeks into my loc journey & I opted for double strand twists too. My natural hair is shoulder length so it's long but the twists are super thin & stringy. I was gonna take it out & do the palm roll method instead bcuz I was thinking it wouldn't look right over time but urs look nice. I love seeing all ur different transition pics ❤😊❤

    • @BrandiSRamos

    Ok so for me my confusion is the retwist. How exactly do you retwist? Are you only doing the root of each twist?

    • @BrandiSRamos
      @BrandiSRamos  3 місяці тому

      My Loctician uses a crochet hook for the interlocking method. Meaning she goes in and out at the root until it's "retied". Let me know if I'm answering your question

  • @janellpulliam7718
    @janellpulliam7718 Рік тому +1

    When you say re-tie do you mean take the twist apart and start over or do you palm roll them
