[chyitaria]

Hey I sent you an email on your website ok. ;-)

[quotidianlight]

@chyitaria that is great and I did receive it. It usually takes me a few days to respond because of work, kids and volume combined with only having my ph during the day. But I always respond.

[chyitaria]

Hey I don't know if I did the tag right buti gave you a shot out on my last video. ;-)

[quotidianlight]

@chyitaria I haven't been on youtube all week *grumbling* and see your video just made me smile. I think you will enjoy a freeform journey and your locs look great.

[saintloui]

Oh my I love it! I'm going to have to try larger Bantu knots !

[quotidianlight]

@theinnercreative Thank you

[Telisaking]

Your hair is cute in knots I say you wear it out!!!!!

[quotidianlight]

@Telisaking I did, I wore it for two days. Surprisingly it was less painful to sleep in than the smaller knots.

[proud2banurse]

:) :) :) encore! encore!!!! ***applause***

[quotidianlight]

@proud2banurse Thanks!

[JesusLovesDenise]

i may try bantus again soon... you always do so well on your hair. i'm struggling with mine right now, but it's cool because i know it will pass. and lol @ sausagey :)

[quotidianlight]

@JesusLovesDenise Everything is temporary :)

[KLMitch129]

You look great and the happy smile at the end is the very best accessory. But what was the beaded tied string, did you make that? It's really cute.

[quotidianlight]

@KLMitch129 The beaded string is actually a Tomoka twist. I can't put a link in the comments but if you do a search it's pop up. Mimi's twists are so easy to use and much prettier than even her photos show. I have two and plan to have many more.

[Napisha09]

Those are beautiful!! I may pick up the energy to try it....i'm super lazy!!

[quotidianlight]

@Napisha09 You aren't alone on that one.

[pbg98pbgpbg98pbg]

my dear friend, I really need you to tell me where to buy setting lotion. I never heard of it until this video, and I think I could really use it on my dreadlocks. By the way your hair turned out Awesome!

[quotidianlight]

@pbg98pbgpbg98pbg Any beauty supply will have setting lotions or setting foams to set curls. I prefer foam as it's less mess. I love Taliha wajid's crinkles and curls but there are many brands available. When I used to palm roll I often used a foam instead of a gel.

[pbg98pbgpbg98pbg]

the thing I like about your videos is that you are original. your locks look really great.

[quotidianlight]

@pbg98pbgpbg98pbg Thank you, that means a lot to me. 

[Desery168]

This is really cute I'll have to try it. Thanks for sharing.

[quotidianlight]

@Desery168 Thanks for watching my channel

[sheshej4]

Love the style.  You invent the cutest styles. Sophisticated and classy!

[quotidianlight]

@sheshej4 I'm trying to record more styles since it is a request I get often

[brownbutterflie]

Awww, it is plain cute:) Enjoy!

[quotidianlight]

@brownbutterflie I did, absolutely love it and plan to wear them again soon

[ginikkie]

super cute!

[quotidianlight]

@ginikkie Thanks!

[tresy177]

Love the way your hair turned out. I did this style on my hair and it didn't turn out so well and I think because I didn't use any product on my hair I basically just used water.

[quotidianlight]

@tresy177 it will set with water only but you need to wear the knots for a few days. My problem was always getting the ends to curl too but with practice you'll get it :)

[atlantagradybaby]

nice

[quotidianlight]

@atlantagradybaby Thank you

[crystaline34]

Very cute! I find bantu knots (or chinny bumps we called them when I grew up) are really good for my locks, not that I've cut them. I've never seen a Tomoka twist, it's gorgeous, will try and get one. Thank you quotidianlight.

[quotidianlight]

@crystaline34 No problemo, I love my twists and she has a sale going on right now

[lil28bit]

I know what my next style will be. Really cute.

[quotidianlight]

@lil28bit WOOT!

[MoesDreads]

Very nice! U give Freeform Dreads a good name!

[quotidianlight]

@MoesDreads Thank you for such a huge compliment

[lockedup3250]

i love  your curls....i will try that style

[quotidianlight]

@lockedup3250 I hope you like it

[CherishMyDaughter]

Beautiful curls!

[quotidianlight]

@CherishMyDaughter Thank you

[CherishMyDaughter]

When you came on with your free style locks thought that looks perfect! Your methods are working so well for you--just beautiful! I'm too tender headed for any of these setting methods so far.

[quotidianlight]

@CherishMyDaughter I am actually extremely tender headed to the point I can only wear a LOOSE ponytail for a couple hours. Try the large knots. I made them loose and they were much more comfortable than other sets that way. I think the size distributed the pressure differently. Still not painless but not unbearable either.

[MrSincere007]

OMG! U R SOOOOOOOO SEXY!

[quotidianlight]

@MrSincere007 LMAO, now just how am I supposed to respond to that lol

[rmcandlelight]

Very cute! It turned out nice. Did you get your tie from Tomoka Twist? Thanks for sharing...Now off to lerarn how to 3 strain twist:)

[quotidianlight]

@rmcandlelight Yep, I love Tomoka's twists

[bigsexxe300]

I really like this look

[quotidianlight]

@bigsexxe300 I did too, I highly suggest giving it a try

[MrSincere007]

WOW! I love the way you look!

[quotidianlight]

@MrSincere007 Thanks

[lewdona]

love the curls.

[quotidianlight]

@lewdona Thanks

[BeautywithinSherry]

The curls look really pretty. I can't sleep on styles either. I'll have to try this.

[quotidianlight]

@BeautywithinSherry Yeah. now to get a special pillow so I can wear more styles

[MsOnly3]

Love the 6 loc bantu knots! What kind of tie was that you used when you took then down.

[quotidianlight]

@MsOnly3 it's called a Tomoka twist. I have two and adore them. They were invented by someone in the loc community and i highly recommend them. No links in comments but they show up in google and i have an old review on my site.

[qochemist]

Very nice...I still have the darndest time attempting bantu knots... I used to be so good at them but I only did the small ones....

[quotidianlight]

@qochemist yeah, it's one of those practice makes perfect styles for sure.

[Buddhalocks]

Nice!

[quotidianlight]

@Buddhalocks I love these things lmao

[Buddhalocks]

@quotidianlight I feel u. I going to try the bantu knots one day. :)

[Omega7ish]

Wow great curls really cute. I love the large bantu knots very complimentary to you.

[quotidianlight]

@Omega7ish Thanks, I think they looked much better than the small ones.

[Mintyfied]

The large Bantu knots look really nice on you. The curls came out quite good too.

[quotidianlight]

@Mintyfied Thank you
