Okay, please tell him to sat down some doggone where! Hateration, hateration, hateration ...

Now that I've gotten that out of the way, his locs are GORGEOUS!! Do you help him maintain them at all? If so, what are some of your (or his) trade secrets? Thanks!

You. Hair. Is. So. Pretty! Did you just coil them or what technique did you use? Every now and then I show my baby girl pics of you all. She asks, "Is my hair going to look like that, mommy?" I tell her, they have GORGEOUS hair, baby, and so do you ... Not a single child in our school district (elementary through high school) has locs (not that we've seen), so she's definitely one of a kind. I mean, we haven't even seen anyone at Walmart with locs and you know how Walmart is ... (LOL). She displays her locs proudly, but I still make it a point to show her all the pretty ladies who also flaunt locs! Thank you ladies!! I can't wait to be a "pretty lady with locs" as well.

Lol. He normally just gets it retwisted once a month. Nothing special honestly.

Coils. I always do them with coils. I'm actually debating on doing them again. I like the way these are but I want to increase the quantity. I have 95 starters right now but I want to double that. I don't really see too many kids with locs around here either.

This guy is my favorite loc YTer. He's a professional loctician and is incredibly informative.

Oh yes, I've seen a few of his vids before. He does have it down pat.

Your coils are gorgeous. Period. Maybe *you* should create a YT vid - "Locs for the average person" or something like that. Some vids are intimidating, you know?

My baby had her kindergarten graduation ceremony today and her locs looked extra cute peeking from under her cap! I'll post some pics when I get her locs tightened.
