I'm at the point in my Sisterlocks journey where I'm learning how to do my own reties bc I have face some discrimination from these loctician In Atlanta. Took me 3 hours for the back half and its wasn't that bad. I caught up on my show while doing it. I work from home so def something I can do during the work day easily. I just bought my tools bc I was using my fingers lol But excited about learning how to retie my own hair! Thanks for the great tutorial!!
I know this video is 3 years old but thank the algorithm gods for putting this in my feed this was soooo helpful and your absolutely beautiful and your hair looks amazing 💜
A little tip when you're washing use a plastic fork to get in between the locs. It may sound a bit ghetto but it works...I tried it on my recent wash this weekend. You did a very good job Kendra!
@@brandinicole7992 yes it is. It wasn't even planned. As I was washing my hair my scalp was itching so badly, I looked over...fork on the counter, I grabbed it and started using on my scalp, it felt amazing, so I said I must share this with ya'll.
Thank you for generously sharing this knowledge Kendra!! Out here in a little village in Kenya, far away from the big city, DIY is the only possibility for me and my daughters. I appreciate your video more than you will know. May you be blessed!!
Yessss. I plan to use the nappy tool. It makes a difference. All the locs whether sister or micro look great with this tool. The hair present day is so beautiful.
Your hair has really grown in two months. I have two size of nappy loc tools and that other tool you have. Believe it or not I use them all. My locs are different sizes and I have different hair textures. They all have different purposes. Also you fingers are great interlocking tools.
Love it! I started my micro lock journey a little over a week ago. Your videos really inspired me to go ahead and start the journey, as well as document mine on youtube so i can hopefully inspire someone else.
The NappyLoc tool is the best in quality and shape. I’ve had mine for about 15 years and it’s still in great shape. I doubt the others I’ve purchased will last as long.
This video alone made me subscribe. You were the first person i came across that showed a detailed retie. I am only a few months into my microloc journey but this was good. Thank you so much, now i see why the Locticians charge the prices that they do, because that is detailed lol 😂
Thank you so much for sharing, I started mine with braid locks because I did it myself and couldn't get my mind and fingers to work together for twist lol but this helps me alot with the retie process. Thank you again 😊
Love this tutorial ❤️ you did a great job! I did my locs myself starting with the 2 strand twist but was struggling with loccing them. Your video got me all the way together. Thanks babes
Thank you very much for the clear demonstration. Since the Coronavirus has the world in its grip, I'm forced to tighten my own sisterlocks. All nonessential businesses are closed. A thousand thanks!!!
I am really thinking about cutting out my locs and I'm so sad. I have so much hair and two inches of new growth. I'm not sure I can do this without messing up my hair or taking a week! I hate corona!!!! 😭😭😭
This is amazing. I am considering loc'ing my hair. I have a short TWA with pretty good length to get started. I am watching a lot of videos trying to learn as much and know which loc style is for me.
I am retighten my hair this weekend thanks to coronavirus. I’ve tried to wait but my sister locks haven’t been retightened since Jan so this weekend it’s me and these locs!
Goodluck!!! I havent had a rethigten since feb and it's a hot mess. I'm afraid of all the new growth I have and combining locs by accident. I need her patience!
Wow I recently did some for my little girl n I used the pin to pass through one place n after finishing I realized that the is a big hole in between so with ur tutorial I will do my best next time. Thanks a lot.
I've been following you for several years and love your progression, KKOG. Thanks for sharing this process with us. I'm strongly considering locking so I'm doing the research to determine with type of lock will be best for me. Stay beautiful!
Happy Sunday Friends!! Here is a breakdown of the video 🤗 Tool Used: ua-cam.com/video/aUb5Txb1XGs/v-deo.html Retighten Demo: ua-cam.com/video/aUb5Txb1XGs/v-deo.html
I'll check out the nappy loc tool. I have the other one as well and I too could feel my roots getting pulled and accidentally merged locs due to the size. Since no salons are open I've been doing the 2 point rotation, and I'm cutting my re-tighten time in half : )
alyssa whitehead I would love to see this too!! The back on my hair had slippage so bad and shorter than the rest of my hair. I need to redo the back and sides.
Your locs are beautiful! I would really love to try to do my own but it will take me a long time since I'll have to take a lot of breaks to rest my shoulder.
Well have the same size locs. I have interlocked my other set which was a lot larger than these (traditional) so I need a new happy locs tool. I’m just scared that it will take forever 😅
+++ Thanks you are very informative and step by step. I left the US over 12 years ago and they became hard to maintain. Before I'd go to the salon, now I can take care of them thanks to you. Happy New Year and you saved me time and money.
Beautiful !! lots of work , I had locs for about 7 plus years love them but didn’t know how to embrace my grey i did the chop lol now I’m loc ish. Lol I do a two strand twist and twist out. Thanks for sharing
Stephanie Campbell Hello I hope all is well, I don’t color my grey cause the color don’t stay no matter how professionally done the color goes away around the crown of my head , and I had to have a high peroxide to lift it cause my grey is really white it’s not the traditional grey. I love it now
I've so much grey in the front of my hair and I use the hair mascara stick which works well for me. I'm resisting dying my hair. I'm only a year loc'd. Maybe something to consider if you decide to re-loc your hair.
Katsu Digital lol I sweat that out lol I’m not trying to cover the grey I love it now , although I’m rocking some crochet hair that is black because they ran out of grey hair in my style of hair that I purchased. Lol it was funny they said all of the young girls are buying up the grey quick lol , I got the stick and the black edge control gel which is off the chain it last a little longer. But the gel does last a bit longer but I recently got a bundle of grey mixed hair from amazon which is white like my hair oh yess I will chain my hair next month oh yessss
Great video! Can you tell me which size nappytool you are using? I have longer locks but my Locs are the size of your locs in the video. Thank you so much!

First, let me say that I got mine installed after I saw your installation vid. I admire you for doing it yourself. Your hair looks great!

I should have watched your video first. Your video was right on point with the information I was looking for. Thanks.
Thank you for your visual tutorial, you made it very easy to understand
Love your hair! Thx for the video. I always wondered how it was done!
🙋🏾♀️ Question, do I first need to know what direction your loctician is retieing you hair in? Or does that not matter?
Perfection as far as tutorials go thank you for this
I've been following you for several years and love your progression, KKOG. Thanks for sharing this process with us. I'm strongly considering locking so I'm doing the research to determine with type of lock will be best for me. Stay beautiful!

Thank you for your very clear instructions. Best I've come across so far 🙂
Excellent tutorial I feel confident.
This tool is amazing. Thank You 👏🏾

Where can I get the nappy locks tool to buy ?
Great tutorial, I'm going to try this!!!
I'll check out the nappy loc tool. I have the other one as well and I too could feel my roots getting pulled and accidentally merged locs due to the size. Since no salons are open I've been doing the 2 point rotation, and I'm cutting my re-tighten time in half : )
Do you retwist the loose hair?
I couldn’t imagine doing that on my own. Wow.
I would like to see how you did the back with the shorter locks...I’m about to start over and that part just gives me anxiety!!!
alyssa whitehead I would love to see this too!! The back on my hair had slippage so bad and shorter than the rest of my hair. I need to redo the back and sides.
Hello guys, I was thinking of getting this done also, but my hair is thin, that got me a bit worried, any suggestions
Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial!
Thank you so much. Well done. I appreciate your training. It helped a lot. 😊
So happy I came across this video. Thank you
Your hair is beautiful! She said she had 500+ locks so you had to do that 2,000 times!!! Wow!!! 😮😱😲😳
Great Job! You made it look easy.
Hey... I Know You Get Thousands Of Comments. Just Want You To Know You Inspired Me To Get SisterLocs. I've been Following You For YEARS!!!!
I find 12:00 to 6:00 then 9:00 to 3:00 rotation easier to remember, but it's basically all the same. Great job though.
I love it! Locs look great
“I’m like chewing like a 80 year old”
