    Always love the look of the curly ends. I have 4b hair and plan on starting my loc journey hopefully this month in November, but I plan on getting some color back before I get locs. I’ll be starting with the coil method❤️

    I had wispy wavy ends a year into my journey and I trimmed them years ago. I just combed out the ends and they are too cute but I don’t think I want to keep up with the maintenance. I’m hoping they’ll loc up wavy again and not blunt. 🤞🏽

    • @CourtneyGrayton
      @CourtneyGrayton  9 місяців тому +1

      Depending on how much you combed out, you might want to coil the ends to give them a shape for when they loc again

    Thank you for this video. I plaited curly ends on my microlocs to create the boho look. It looks really natural. I want to add some curls on the middle of my locs as a permanent feature. I am not sure how this would work. What do you recommend? ❤

    If your hair is curly like 4a in a wash n go, is that what you mean by natural curl? Will a 4a curl remain at the end of locs? I like my curls, but with two little kids whose hair I Also have to do, I want a more permanent solution to an easier to maintain style for me.

    This video came right on time. So I am truly wanting to do the big chop and start my locs from scratch. I am recently growing out my relaxed Bob and I wondered how to have curly ends when I’m starting from a TWA. I have thick fine hair. Is there a suggested loc size 0.4m or 0.08m or larger?

      You can use a crochet tool to make the ends look more uniform. Look for an instant loc tutorial. I have a video explaining the method, with pros and cons: ua-cam.com/video/OnTvL0KnUJ0/v-deo.html - Start at 7:05

    Hi, I started my micro locs with about 8 months of transitioned hair and kept my relaxed ends....but I want curly ends. Should I keep the relaxed ends and just perm rod curl the relaxed ends or wait until my locs mature and cut the relaxed ends off? Any advice is helpful. TIA!! ❤❤

    If you start the loc with instant locs, how easy is it to comb out the ends and have curly ends? Also, how easy is it to comb out the locs after years of crochet maintenance?

    • @CourtneyGrayton
      @CourtneyGrayton  Рік тому +1

      Combing out mature locs is a fairly simple process, it’s the time it takes that makes it “hard” to do. It’s extremely time-consuming. So that’s really up to a person’s patience!
