I have about 1 year old sisterlocks. I am 13. Am I able to do this? My locks are up to half of my neck. Thank you.

@Sagiebear7 You will be able to a few criss crosses in the front but you may not be able to get the weave pattern to go up as high in the back and you will probably have to use some bobbie pins or tuck some loose ends. It should still be pretty though!

How long have you been growing your locks?

You aren't a woman and I appreciate Shawnta's clips because they show you that you don't have to adhere to the "idea" that locs should just hang. Too many of my family members have made comments about my choice to loc their comments have been subliminal and direct. Shawnta's videos show that Black women can do whatever we want with our hair w/o the assistance of chemicals.

i have seen your numerous tutorials. and i must say you are amoungst the best. you can clearly see and hear what the heck you are doing. i was shocked to see you with your locs taken down. i actully did one of mine and it took about 45 mins and like 16 toothpicks! lol! also i saw something pretty amazing on youtube. this female cut her locs off at the root and 6 mons later had them put back in! i must say i was very impressed. keep up the good work! and i can totally see you with the fat locs.
