    Please keep going. We all felt that way in the beginning. It looks crazy and it’s hard to visualize them maturing but just hang in there. Locs are magical. The time will fly. I’m already 18 months and my hair has grown so much.

    Your day one is so similar to mine! Lord was I disappointed those first two days! But videos like yours helped me become more confident in myself and my starterlocs. I haven’t covered my locs so far not even for one day, and I just got my first retwist yesterday after a month. I’m excited for them to thicken up like yours did! It’s so hard to find videos that show both “fine” starterlocs that are ALSO parted to be larger for than pencil sized after maturation. Your locs are so beautiful. Definitely hair crush worthy.

    Your video was a huge encouragement for me.. I started my locs the end of last month and its been a journey... I tried to start locs 3 times in the past 6 years and it was always an epic fail. I did not go to a professional hair stylist btw. This time I did and started with comb coils. With much prayer, patience, and perseverance I will get through all these different phases to have beautiful healthy locs. Good video keep them coming.. 👍🏾

    You are so pretty and your locs are everythaaaang hunty get into it ya'll!!😌(snap snap) for those that are thinking about it, stop thinking about it and just do iiiit! It's the best decision I made for myself, growing locs has taught me alot of patience, self love, building momentum, and just lettin' it do what it do, whatever the "it" is in life. And beautiful, what you said about the hair color change, just last week I noticed it with my hair too, I told my husband, don't you see it, the brown and red highligts he was like "look bout the same color to me" (rolling eyes) all he see right now is the Knicks!😂 my locs are sun baked yumminess ok! lol! but thats another thing I learned,you will see the beauty in yourself that others will not see, it's so important, you will need no ones validation but your own. Happy locking brothers and sisters! Love ya'll❤❤❤❤❤

Also had some people tell me my hair is "not kinky enough" I have 3c-4a hair. You just gotta continue to believe in your journey and see it through. Cause they'll be the same people complimenting your locs when they're mature. Everyone wants to admire the flower but none are patient enough to watch the seed grow.
