    I love your video! I was definitely feeling like ugh this is going to be a long process, when I first interlocked my hair I just wanted it to start instantly growing. After a while I started to realize this journey is all about learning yourself & being patient, focusing on what’s current & bettering yourself. I’ve had my locs for 6 months so & I’m loving everything minute of it.

    I have had my lox’s for almost a year and my love are just now in the “teenage” stage. I have a long way to go but it’s encouraging and kind of disappointing when people ask me how to start locs, they start them then take em out after a week because they don’t look the way they thought. It’s a tough process. Like Joel Embiid says rust the process.

    I might be late hopping on this info train but I’ve been growing my hair out since around 9th grade and I started out just twisting my hair with a sponge and continued to do that for two years and just let it grow out until it started hanging down. I got my hair officially twisted two weeks ago from a friend who specializes in locks and braids and I just wanted some advice on how does someone like me keep my scalp and hair clean, healthy and smelling good? Also how often should I retwist it? Should I use any products? If so which ones?

      I rarely retwist my hair. This is my 2nd set of locs and this set is much thicker without twisting. I started with 2 strand twists and I've had my locs for about 7 months. I've twisted them once every 6 weeks the first couple months and now I rarely twist. They grew together a little in the beginning, but now my new growth is growing with the loc and not away. When I twisted more, the new growth grew away from it. My hair is super fine so low/no manipulation has yeilded much better results. I only put oil and water in my hair. I also don't use shampoo or conditioner. I use Apple Cider Vinegar, baking soda, lemon, and a dash of sea salt. I keep my hair covered and only wash once every 2 months. These locs are WAYYYY better than the ones I had for almost 10 years. My dad was from the Islands and he had locs past his waist when he died. He did nothing to it and and had the healthiest and longest hair of anyone I know.
