Recording in portrait mode is far better because of how long your locs are. We can see the length more... Landscape would have been too short. Reels, Shorts & Toc vids are all portrait anyways

Thank you soo much Tisha!! 😍 I am really loving them at this new length!

Glad you made this video my locs are down to my knees almost and I’m so ready to trim them but I’ve been afraid of the change

I cut 4 inches off mines today they were past my butt I feel so much relief i had my loctician even them out she took off a lil bit so 4 1/2 inches all together i feel so good ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ been growing mines 19 yrs

This is giving me the confidence to make the cut ❤

I can't wait until I have this problem 😂

I LOVE it!!!! It’s still very long. I bet it was a great releasing far as how light it feels.

Thank you so much Cryssy!!😘🤗 It is still really long 😂. I’m still surprised when I see it from the back bc from the front it looks like it’s so much shorter to me. Omg it’s been such a relief for my neck. It hasn’t hurt me at all since I cut them.

Thanks for being the guinea!!! I have less concerns for myself when I get to that point!

You should use a long bonnet. Like the ones for braids. 💕 Gorgeous locs. I am watching from my cruise.

I have two of those bonnets and they are cool for me sometimes but I also don’t like the feeling of laying on my hair of it’s going down my back so most of the time I wear the bonnets that I’ve made. Thank you soo much!!😘🤗 Ohhhhh enjoy your cruise girrrrl!🙌🏾😍🙌🏾

Thank you so much!🤗😘 I did think about it at first but honestly I’m really loving my ends how they are 🤭…I’m not sure if it’s bc it’s still new or what but if I feel the urge to then maybe I’ll do it to get the curly ends again. ☺️

Hi Dawn! I'm sure that you can still do that side braid. I remember the side braid video from a few years back. My locs were not long enough at that time but I can do it now. My locs never feel heavy unless they are wet, but seeing that you had over 2 ounces of weight in that little bit, it makes me wonder if some of my neck pain is from this too.🤔 Thanks for sharing💜

@itsDawnElle

Hi Darlene!! Yes, I'm pretty sure I still can too lol. I need to do that style again because it's been a while, plus it was cute lol! Oh yeah, that's how mine started off at first....only heavy when wet and then next thing you know my neck was hurting me every single day to the point of almost tears at times. I'm afraid your hair maybe the cause of your neck pain, although I'm hoping it's not. Try some neck stretches to see if that helps before you decide to cut them unless you're okay with cutting them now. You're so welcome and thank you so much for watching and walking with me on this journey! 😍
