I'm in my baby locks stage and I'm really starting to enjoy it more than in the very beginning. It's been 2 months since my establishment and they're changing so much already. Thanks for the great tips! 😀
Marcia M You’re welcome! Thank you for your support! 2 months in! That’s what’s up (: I remember being between the 2-6 month time frame. It was like my hair was changing every 2 weeks!
LOL thank you =) I see you have the UK flag on your comments. I am from the US. I have never heard the term "no waffle" before but I REALLY like it. I am going to start using it. I love when I get comments from the UK. You alls style of English sounds so classy to me. I'm glad you are appreciating the info. I know most of the people watching my videos are 25 and up, grown grown! We don't have time to listen to someone attempt to get to the point for 10 minutes. I respect you alls time.
Nia A thank you for the reply made me laugh & that’s a gift just like your channel. So grateful to you & other youtubers for the wealth of knowledge you pass on without it my locs & journey would have been over a longtime ago. Yes “waffle” or “waffling” is when someone twitters on about nothing, something your not guilty of. 👍🏾🇬🇧
Thank you so much! I try to make sure things are clear for everyone. I used to be a teacher lol. I guess that's why I have a certain communication style =)
Thanks so much for the vid! Great advice as usual. 👋🏾 I’m guilty of not appreciating this baby stage. I just want my hair to get longer and fuller...like yesterday. 😂 I will say that I fall in love with my SLocks a little bit more with each shampoo. It’s already changed a lot in just a month. I would like to start a channel but I don’t know where to start. I have one YTer that has baby SL that I adore, JusDenyse.
Danise Phaedra Thank you 😊 . You should definitely start a channel ! Sit down and write down a list of 15 video ideas to get started then just go for it sis! I’m going to follow you now, because I’m speaking into existence that your channel is about to be popping (:
Nia A Hey there! Just wanted to let you know that I finally uploaded my vid: ua-cam.com/video/4AhGNujsutY/v-deo.html. Thanks so much for your encouragement! ❤️
Thank you for posting this! Something I started researching sisterlocks by following Deviny’s Journey too! Comparison can definitely spoil the fun. That includes comparing to my loose natural hair journey because everything was on a whole different time scale in regards to length realization, which shows a lot faster than locs, and texture transformation, which is immediate for new growth unlike the process of locking. Looking at people with locs my length and thinking about my love of loc maintenance and the aesthetic has kept my happy.
Hi Jayla=) I do a lot of comparing my loc journey to my natural hair journey too. I thought I was the only one lol. When I first went natural I saw DRAMATIC change within the first 6 months. I did not see that much change in my sisterlocks after 6 months and it was disappointing for me. Now I am enjoying every stage of my journey and taking things slow.
I feel exactly the same...one thing that I’m really proud of is....I never covered up my babies after my installation....I was all in once I made the decision to get my installation 🖤
Thank so much. You radiate beauty and joy. And I your voice is very soothing. It is contagious. 🌺❤️ I am at day 2, love it, growth and volume, please, here come!!! 🙏
I did my own sister locs and have no grid so my locs are growing at different rates and sizes I have yet to see someone with free parting should I start over?
I started my (2 strand twist with 4 point rotation) loc journey 20 Apr this year with 14" hair I'm budding and am now at shoulder length 😫 it's cool though. I left alot of hair out to keep the volume since my sides are shaved. Loc-ing was the best decision I made. You're beautiful!!
Thank you so much. I’m sorry, it’s really hard to remember exactly how much because that was so long ago , but I want to say at least once a week. Now I wash them twice a week.
Question. Do you have a before lock pic? I’m curious the length of your hair before. Considering cutting my hair before sisterlocks to help cut down on the price.
Thank you for these great tips! Especially about not wearing your hair in stretched styles all the time. I get my sisterlocks established in two weeks and I’m so excited! But I’m also worried about how to style my hair. I’m going to definitely stock up on some cute accessories lol
Thanks for the video. I definitely want to find someone who i can journey with. I’m 6 weeks SL. I’m in the baby stage. It been hard trying to found someone who has the same hair texture as mines. Hopefully my channel will help somebody with my texture find me. But I watch I love to watch Let’s Journey, Farrah Knows, & Abidemi Komolafe (Sisterlocks crush 😍)
That’s a good question. I should of included it in my video. I’ve had my locs for 3 years, so when it comes to what stage of the locking process I’m in, I believe most would say my locs are mature. I see some connect loc stages to length as well. Length wise I would say I’m in the teenage stage.
Lol you can definitely do twist outs when you have baby locs (: I just suggests giving locs a little time between twist outs to allow the locs to shrink up and loc. But definitely enjoy twist outs every now and again Sis (:
Hey Nia! Thanks for the tips. I am looking into starting this journey and stumbled across your page. We've chatted in the past in that summer class we took together.
Mallory Malone hey Mallory ! I remember you! I hope you are well, and that you find my channel helpful (: Good luck this school year. I feel like we are all going to need it lol.
I am definitely still in the baby stage.. I cannot wait till these babies mature.

Lovely straight to the point information, I’m trying to cram in all your videos your so easy to watch & talk a lot of sense. Not waffle 😊🇬🇧

I loooooooove the way you break down your information in your videos
Thank you so much! I try to make sure things are clear for everyone. I used to be a teacher lol. I guess that's why I have a certain communication style =)
I am getting use to my baby loc stage. I like watching "Elle Tee Locs" as a youtuber as well as "Just Aundria" for loc inspiration. Great video.
Tiffany Warren thanks for sharing. I’ve seen Just Audria’s channel, but I’ve never seen Elle Tee Locs. I’ll have to follow her (:

I wish I had taken more pictures of my baby locs also 🤍 awesome video...thanks for sharing 🤍
Casey J thank you for watching (: hindsight is 20/20. Back then I didn’t like my locs, now I look back and see how absolutely gorgeous they were!
I feel exactly the same...one thing that I’m really proud of is....I never covered up my babies after my installation....I was all in once I made the decision to get my installation 🖤
@@Niaimani92 oòò
Thank so much. You radiate beauty and joy. And I your voice is very soothing. It is contagious. 🌺❤️
I am at day 2, love it, growth and volume, please, here come!!! 🙏
My sister locs were born 11.24.20!! I love them already ❤
Yay!!! They are three days old ! Enjoy the baby loc stage =)
I follow Portia too. I love her hair.
Ebony W it’s absolutely stunning! I just dye my hair Jet Black, but I can appreciate those who have experimented with color and nailed it!
How long does the baby stage last. I'm not enjoying it.
Your hair is beautiful, it gives me hope when I see hair like yours x
Thank you (: I’m sorry you’re not enjoying your baby stage. I struggled through out mind as well. My hair took about 1 and 1/2 to 2 years to mature.
I did my own sister locs and have no grid so my locs are growing at different rates and sizes I have yet to see someone with free parting should I start over?
Thank so much for the advice, I have a lot of clips and barrettes.
Any time! I am glad the tips were helpful =)

Thank you! I am sure your locs are absolutely beautiful too and they will be swanging in no time =)
I so enjoy your channel! How often did you end up washing your hair after your consultant suggested that you wash more often?
Thank you so much. I’m sorry, it’s really hard to remember exactly how much because that was so long ago , but I want to say at least once a week. Now I wash them twice a week.
THANK YOU!!
Danielle W you’re welcome (: !!! Thank you for watching and commenting.
Question. Do you have a before lock pic? I’m curious the length of your hair before. Considering cutting my hair before sisterlocks to help cut down on the price.
Hi =) I have several pictures of my hair before I started my locs in this video ua-cam.com/video/-RNMPPSJlXA/v-deo.html
Thank you for these great tips! Especially about not wearing your hair in stretched styles all the time. I get my sisterlocks established in two weeks and I’m so excited! But I’m also worried about how to style my hair. I’m going to definitely stock up on some cute accessories lol
You are so welcome! I am excited for you! Enjoy every second of your baby stage =)
Your locs are beautiful. Are they hard to maintain due to them being small? New friend here
Thank you so much!!! Maintaining them is very time consuming.
A UA-camr I recently found with gorgeous baby locs is called Isoken O
Jaydeekatt thank you for sharing (:
Isoken
Thanks for the video. I definitely want to find someone who i can journey with. I’m 6 weeks SL. I’m in the baby stage. It been hard trying to found someone who has the same hair texture as mines. Hopefully my channel will help somebody with my texture find me. But I watch I love to watch Let’s Journey, Farrah Knows, & Abidemi Komolafe (Sisterlocks crush 😍)
Yasss Abi is BOMB!!! I did not know you had a channel. I would love to follow your journey and support your channel.
Thanks for the support. @@Niaimani92
How Long do i take to do first retie
What stage is your looks in now?
That’s a good question. I should of included it in my video. I’ve had my locs for 3 years, so when it comes to what stage of the locking process I’m in, I believe most would say my locs are mature. I see some connect loc stages to length as well. Length wise I would say I’m in the teenage stage.
I think I need help I had sister lock before but this time I don't think I have real sister lock it's to is half done
Watching this while doing a twist out on my baby locs... oops 🙊 😅
Lol you can definitely do twist outs when you have baby locs (: I just suggests giving locs a little time between twist outs to allow the locs to shrink up and loc. But definitely enjoy twist outs every now and again Sis (:
You are so helpful
Thank you so much ! That is my goal =)
Hi do you use a leave in conditioner after you shampoo
I didn’t with my baby locs, now I use Dr. Locs leave in spray after washes most of the time.
@@Niaimani92 I'm in the first stages of my micro locks what's the best way to go about using product
How many locks do you have
I’ve never been able to finish counting all of them. I have close to 500.
What’s the difference between baby locs and sister locs?
Baby Locs are any locs that haven’t matured yet.
I didn’t particularly like the baby loc stage bit a sister is enjoying the hell out of the stage I’m in now 😍😍😍😍
Mrs. Joe joe what stage are you in now Sis?! I’m glad you are enjoying it (:
Nia A I would say late teenage stage! lol Thank you!
What stage are you in? Months in? Years in?
Simone Orjiako 2 years 8 months
What rotation was used on your hair and whT hair type are you?
Ally J hi Ally! A 4 point rotation was used, and I have 4c hair.
@@Niaimani92 thank you!
😍
Gail McClure thank you for your support (:
i cannot stop my hands out my hair🤣
It's a problem I have in my life lol... I'm working on it lol
Hey Nia! Thanks for the tips. I am looking into starting this journey and stumbled across your page. We've chatted in the past in that summer class we took together.

Let's Journey is the move! She is one of the few people who documented every single step of her loc journey until her loss were mature.
