    Heyyy! Welcome back to my channel! Today’s video is going to be a very detailed video on how I retwist my locs without using any gel or any clips. I’ve been using this method for the past couple of months now and it’s been so easy maintaining my locs this way. I haven’t retwisted my hair in a while so my roots were definitely merged or married together which made separating them kind of uncomfortable. This whole process took me a little over an hour to complete and my results were raw!! 🔥

    It's very smart to retwist on a day that you didn't wash, so there's not much drying time needed ... I'm definitely doing that next time.

    Deff gonna try this method w/o clips and gel. I feel like the less product the better. I consider this a soft retwist, as far as not over retwisting or causing too much tension to the roots. Love this video, thank you❤

    • @MadebySOMI
      @MadebySOMI  Рік тому

      Thank you 🙏🏽 I’m happy that you consider my video a very good tutorial, I don’t think my videos are that good in showing how to do retwists, so that is reassuring to hear you say that. I wasn’t happy with a couple people because they used Jam gel and it was so sticky and flaky and stiff and I hated it. Also, I wasn’t happy with how they didn’t wash my hair good enough for me either. It always makes me feel good when I do my own hair. Even in the very beginning when I didn’t know how to, I just kept doing it and now I’m really really good.

    • @MadebySOMI

      Yes it would work but I think for product build up, you may need an actual detox. This version I do is just to cleanse my scalp, not relent to detox my roots and locs. I haven’t actually looked into making or doing a detox but I do know the apple cider vinegar, baking soda and lemon juice detox is very popular. Please look up some versions of this detox to help with your buildup
