Your locs look sooooooooooooo good!!! You were one of my inspirations to loc my hair. I will be 2 years in December. So excited. And just like you, I'm loving the journey through every stage.
Omg she was my inspiration too & I will also be locked 2 years in December!! Haha ❤
Same for me and today im officially 2 years ❤❤
I'm officially 2 years on my micro locs n 2 inches from bra length. I also do my own locs n loving every journey of it. You are my inspiration n I THANK YOU! KEEP SHINING BEAUTIFUL...
WE DIDI IT! I just hit 3 months keke J!!! ❤
Me too!
I am 10 months into my journey and have less than 45 days away celebrating my 1st loc anniversary. Congratulations on your 3rd year! I have been following you for a minute and it was your inspiration that helped me decide to take this journey! I can't wait to color her, but I am trusting the process. ❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for the honesty! Genetically, I grow (and keep) nearly 16 inches of hair each year, so I cut it off to about 2 inches every year or so. I’ve grown 2 sets of locs to a little shorter than yours, but unravel/cut once mature because I missed the frizz. 😂 I plan to start a new set before the year is over, but Lord knows they may be gone by year two.
Also, your hair is beautiful!!
Lol
Girl
This is essentially my plan lol. Like I LOVE LOVE LOVE my fro, but the way my roots be tangling?? Like how you tangling at the roots girl, but she is so pretty! I’m a wash and PTO day away from setting up my twists! I’m so excited!
I love how present you've been throughout the whole experience, this is so refreshing ❤
I'm 16.5 months (16 as of Oct 1). I would have been further but I took out first set because they were a little too big (280). At 350 now and this last retwist was so easy - just a few stubborn ones that are slipping but the rest are finally acting right. I do not miss loose natural hair at all and am looking forward to the coming drop. Seeing you ahead of me gives me lots to look forward to while enjoying this current bob.
Thank you again for documenting and sharing your journey as you've really helped me DIY my own and stick with it especially in the early days of constant marrying.
PS I'm team don't pull when doing length checks this way when your hanging length looks like you just made the goal you then pull and show you're already past the mark!
I started my loc journey because of you. I’ll be 3 years in May. I love seeing your journey!
SO EXCITED FOR YOU. THEY MATURED SO BEAUTIFULLY!!
You and Kendra Kenshay were my microloc inspirations!!! I love the journey and have surpassed a year in July!!!
Your locs look so good. Congratulations on 3 years!! You’re one of the reasons I started my loc journey. I’m a year in and loving every moment of it!! ☺️
Congrats on 3 years!! I’m currently 3 weeks into my microloc journey and I’m loving ittt!! I’m enjoying my hair being in the starter loc stage and having the volume while it’s here! And also being able to wake up and go!! I love it here already !! ❤
Congratulations on 3 years loc’d 🔒❤️🥳! I’m 2 years in with traditional size locs 🤗!
Your hair is gorgeous!! I'm 1,5 years loc'd and I love my locs, you're one of the person who convinced me into getting microlocs! I had similar hair type and hair length as you when you started out and so far my evolution is similar to yours so I'm very excited for how my hair will be once I hit the 3 year mark! And I have a copper dye ^^
Yay! Right behind ya Nov 29th 3 years 🥲 thank you for sharing your journey with us❣️
I got bored after 15 years….chopped them….then regretted it and have started again 😁
You were my inspiration when I was doing research and I am officially on day one of my microloc journey! Did them myself and so excited! Congratulations on 3 years! Your locs are gorgeous
I'm a year and a half loc'd and I started because of you. I saw how your hair transformed and I knew I could do it too. Especially since we had similar hair texture.
I love how much you're enjoying it.
😍Your journey has inspired me so much! I hit 1 month microloc’d on the 19th; loving my volume and frizz at this point!
Congratulations!!! It's creeping down your back & you're still talking to us?! Lol I've been following for a couple of years, so thank you for being an inspiration! I have complicated my journey a lil bit...I started mine in March of last year but wasn't happy with the size in the back/crown area, so I combed all of those out over the summer, re-did them smaller, but kept the rest. Now it looks like I have a graduated bob with the front being almost a year & a half mature & hanging & the back kind of looking stacked. Technically I have 2 locaversaries now 😫 lol I'm loving my journey & only regret not starting years ago. Congrats again on your gorgeous journey💜🙌🏽🫶🏽🎉
I'm right there with you. 3yrs this month! I absolutely love everything about my locs❤
2 years 4 months here !!! your locs look so lovely, been here from the beginning and you inspired my own micro loc journey❣, missing volume and the texture of my loose natural hair is the exactly the reason i combed out my ends. my set is giving best of both worlds no hannah Montana..🤭 lol cant wait to continue seeing your locs flourish and see where your hair journey takes you.🫶🏿❣
You should be proud! I’m proud for you.
Three years!! Yeesh, how long have I been subscribed. Time flies by so fast. Anyhow, congratulations, wooo!!🎉❤
You inspired me to start my loc journey so I’m excited to see your update! I’m 3 months loc-ed today and love the journey so far. I am worried about the loss of volume so I’m exploring keeping my ends loose.
Congratulations Keke! 🎊🎈🎉 Your Locs looks so beautiful and lush! You’re doing a great job maintaining them. I will be 3 years in 9 days. I installed them and also maintain them myself. I’m loving them even more now too. I’m experiencing the same Loc changes too. 🥰 My goal is to be under bra strap without having to stretch them at all.
I share and enjoy your Loc journey with you Keke. Continue having fun with your Locs!
Yasss ❤❤ congratulations!! They look so good.
I hit 9 months next week on thr 17th and just got my first style this past Friday. Its been fun so far, ive definitely learned a lot.
Again, congrats on your journey and keep flourishing ✨️
Congratulations KeKe on your 3yr loc anniversary!! I will be 3yrs Sisterloc’d on Nov 1st!! Loving 🥰 my Loc journey also. I’ve followed your loc journey since the beginning and enjoy your videos. If you cut your locs off, please keep them in case your want to reattach the locs. I hope your don’t perm your hair the chemicals have been causing fibroids and cancer in BW! The health issues with perms are not worth a hair style. You are beautiful 😍 naturally!
I'm 6 months in. You inspired me to get them and it really is a journey. Some days I love them and am in awe of the changes and some days I feel boxed in and want to change it. But I love them for sure
Omg!! I remember you inspired me to start my own microloc journey and I'm 2.5 years now 😢 they look so good Keke! I lm excited to see what they look like at 5 years, they definitely gonna be almost waist length.🎉❤
I will hit 3 months on 10/25. I have been watching your videos before your loc journey. I Love your locs! Watching your loc journey inspired me to get loc'd. Thank you for the update.😊
GIRL!!! I'm itching to get locs! I'm a wash n go girl now and honestly, it doesn't take long at all but I'm a lazy natural lmao. I'm going to get a trim soon and hopefully in the next 6 months or so, I'll get locs!
Congrats on 3 yrs! I’ll be 1 yr locd in December and I can’t wait! I have traditional locs and I absolutely love them but like you mentioned, as someone who works out, retwists only last so long and you don’t always wanna get a style just to prolong it. That would be the big reason I think microlocs and getting reties instead would be beneficial for me, but I’m just glad I’ve reached the point in my journey where I embrace the frizz and don’t mind the no retwist look
Congrats on 3 years!!!! I'll hit 1 year next month ❤
Love love love the video! I’m almost 4 months… enjoying the journey
Wow I was having thoughts about combining out my locs because I miss my natural hair but people compliment me then I change my mind but seeing your video makes me feel better I can't wait to see your journey - I'm 1 year and 5 months sisterloc
Congratulations on your 3 year Locanniversary your locs look amazing 🎊🎉🎈🥳🥰❤️👍🏾👏🏾🤗
I’ll be three years in April, I’m so excited. I started my locs because of you ❤ I love watching your loc videos because our hair is the same length and size. Your locs are gorgeous 😍
I'm one year in November. Your videos helped me abs inspired me on this journey so much and I'm loving it
I can’t believe it’s been 3 years already I feel like you were just taking out the first set of micro locs wow! I’m 10 months in & love this update, loving my volume and all the conveniences of locs thanks for always serving Inspo 🙌🏽🫶🏽
Im 13 months microlocd and still in the bob stage...cant wait until I get to your length. Im still not completely locd yet...my loctition told me maybe 2-yrs I will be...but we will see! 😊 Love yours ❤ #locdgangallday!
Congrats on your 3 years sis! I'm not too far behind. I'll hit 3 years in February!
I am 1yr 7 months loc’d. Your hair looks amazing, congrats on 3yr locaversary
Congratulations on 3 years 🎉. I’m four years in. Still the best decision I ever made
Congratulations on your 3 year loc'diversary🤘🏾
I am one month loced and trusting the process you were my inspiration to loc my hair and I am loving it so far I’ll be honest there were many times I wanted to take them out and there will be many more times but I’m trusting the process
You inspired me to do my DIY locs and i started with twists. They are the best thing i did on my hair! i am now 2 years 5 months in! i'm looking to color though im afraid of damage. I have never colored my hair but i realize the reason i did the microlocs was so as to gain freedom!
Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈🍾
I'm 2 yrs 9 months in my DIY microloc journey. Enjoying every minute!
You inspired my log journey. I’m an almost 2 years on November 4th. I love them!
You are so beautiful! Thanks for sharing your journey 🤗
Congratulations on 3 years loc'd! I loved the update! This week, I'll be 16 months loc'd (traditional locs). I have noticed something that you mentioned in your update; which is less frizz around the 14-16 year mark, but I'm still loving and embracing the journey!
Hey Loc Twin!! I'm 16 months as of Oct 1!
@@beingmichelleg congrats!
Loving your locs 😍 I got started after binge watching your videos😂😂 I'm now 6 months loc'd x
i literally love your locs ! i didn’t have the patience for micro locs but who knows maybe in the future 😊 & i am 5 months & 1 week loc’d !!
love this. I am 7 months into my loc journey. I installed impulsively with twists. my hair h i as been budding since month 2. i started with mid back loose natural 2a-3c curls. now it is to my bra strap locd. best choice ever. now i just need to train myself to go longer in between my reties. I have medium size locs and interlock my roots. i have 97 locs =)
I love love love this! I’m 21 months in, and my locs are growing faster than I thought! They are starting to creep down my back, and I just finessed (aka using several Bobby pins) a center part low bun today. Can’t nobody tell me nothing 🤣
I’m becoming more curious as to how my would look at bra strap length. It might take some time since they’re pretty much in layers
Yay 🎉 congrats!! You've inspired me to share my loc journey ❤
Thank you! ❤ I’m so glad I could do that for you!
🎉Congrats on your loc journey! Next month will be year one for me 🩷
Happy anniversary!!! Maybe you can sew some micro beads into it, use kanakalon weave as your thread. Just to switch it up to quench the desire to do something drastic to Lionel.
Your hair is so beautiful ❤
Hey gurl💕. I love your hair and you're one of the reasons I got microlocs. I just hit 2 months loc'd on the 9th of October. I'm super excited and I'm really just waiting for my hair to be fully loc'd so it stops slipping😭.
Congratulations on your 3 years on having locs
2 years next month. You were my inspiration and the only video I watched before I started. Later realized.. I’m suited best for small traditional locs lol.
Gorgeous 😭😭😭
Congratulations on 3 years I’m 2 years and 1 month loced 🎉❤😊
I’m 14 months in! I can’t wait for my locs to reach bra length 😍
hey loc twinnn! 14 months here too!😁💜
I do really get that craving to change up your hairstyle. They look so healthy and gorgeous tho. Just keep them like this, you rock this look 🤎💛💙💚🧡!!
So pretty Keke!
Girl you inspired me! I am 2 years in!!! I love my locs
I’m 9 months loc’d (traditional)! I love loc’d girl life and NEVER want to go back to loose hair but I’m also considering maybe doing another set with smaller traditional or microlocs? I don’t think I can get past doing a 8hr-2 day retie though…I typically wash and retwist my 80 locs in two hours and love this lifestyle lol.
Congratulations on making it 3 years!!! Your locs are so beautiful!
I’m starting my journey today at 3 inches! I can’t wait what it looks like!
Your crown looks Amazing Queen, yes she has flourished beautifully, Can't wait to get pass my shoulders 😅❤
I am 4yrs and 10 months. Love your energy.
Looks great! 😍😍
I’m 2 years in this month!!🎉🎉
I’m going through the same debate. I’m miss my loose natural hair but also love my locs.
Congratulations 🎉🥰
I swear you and I are on the same exact hair journey. I’m three years in January. I just dyed my ends too and we have the same exact length ❤ I’ve been itching to cut it off though but I’m gonna power through.
I am at 17 months LOC’D 🎉
Gorgeous 🤩Thank you for sharing 😊
Fire in the houseee!!
Your locs are fabulous 👌 ❤ I'll be 3 years loc'd in February
Just hit 6 months locd! It’s my first time and i love them
Happy 3 year locked Anniversary’s 🎉😂❤
Thank you so much! 🥰
Happy Anniversary!!! ❤ I will be 3 years in February.
Thank you so much! That’s approaching fast! 💕
Congratulations 🎊 You’re definitely one of my inspirations. October 28th will make me a year. 🥰🎊🙌🏾
3:18 I don’t know why, but I found that video edit effect so impressive cause my eyes really followed your finger snap 😂. I’m at the end of my bob phase and imma miss it too 😌
Keke, have you considered doing loc sprinkles or wrapping your locs with thread or twine? That could allow you to play around with color and spruce up your locs without damage.
Im officaly 3 months into my loc journey with comb coils! My hair is very short right now so Im hoping for more length. I also have a question, is it okay to wash my starter locs now or should I wait a little longer to do so? Also I love your content and your microlocs , so CONGRADULATIONS on your 3 year mark!!
Have you considered using something like color-oops to strip your color in the future? It’s usually less damaging than bleach
I just love how your locs look I just started my locs journey I would really love if my locs could look like yours
To thicken my locs and give them the appearance of thickness I section hair out every 3 rows and while using a soft wave brush, brush them both downward and up wards then afterwards I mist my hair with a spray bottle running my fingers through it all for styling. I do this maybe once or twice a month❤
Beautiful
I’m 9 months loc’d, I have the same thought of combing/ cutting them. Then I start to remember how draining it was to style my natural hair.
Hi! Did you switch from 2 point to 4 point rotation. I saw in one of your videos you were talking about switching because of it looking a little for doing 2. In about to do my first retie so just trying to get a feel. I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!
Amazing video ❤ I’m 1 year 1 month locd. You inspired me to loc up but I’m itching for a change as well 😅
I’m officially 19 months Loc’d ❤
Hi Keke! Great progress! If you're bored could you try a well blended microlocs faux bangs situation? I dont want to cut my mature locs into bangs because I love to do ponytails and such, but I love bangs. Little idea for you :)
Just use Color Oops instead of bleaching your locs, I had blue hair and got tired of it I used Color Oops to remove the blue and it went back to however it had been first bleached. It doesnt damage your hair(for there is no bleach or ammonia) and my curls looked great
