Well, hello: everybody welcome back to the channel today, I'm here, you know why! I'M here you saw it in the title. You saw it in the thumbnail. Oh god this this right here I have some new brand new new luxe yeah. I didn't even plan to do that, but brand new new luxe, all right - these are from Bobby boss and they came out with a new type of crocheted red or crochet. Crochet lock, remember, bomba, dreads, okay, Bobby boss is the creator of the bomba dreads that I did last year. So if you haven't guessed already, I love crochet locks. If out of all of the crochet styles, I love the locks. I just do. I feel the most comfortable in the locks I've had these in for about four weeks. You guys, I kind of like to bring you the hair after I've really worn it for weeks, and this is what the hair looks like the dreads. They are 18 inches long and what I really truly love the most about these are the fact that the ends are tapered now mind. You see how this is curled under that's, because these are four weeks. Oh now, those the more the longer the longer you wear them, the more natural they look. If you don't know anything about me in this channel, okay, I am NOT one who likes uniform super neat, no frizz laid edges straight parts. All that stuff is not my! That'S not my that's not my thing so, as you can see, it looks more realistic that way to me. You know for me, I like it like that when it's fuzzy frizzy, not super neat, not super shiny, all that okay, so this is what the hair is. Looking like after four weeks and I'm not mad at it now now I did cheat. You guys know I like to add individual locks up here, so these are faux locs that I installed barely even two rows of locks. Okay, I just took a little bit of my hair, see as you can see, it's barely even two row, you guys, okay, I wasn't too careful in the party. The rest is crochet, so this is the packaging right here. You guys new locks by Bobby Voss and yeah. That is what the packaging looks like. Okay, as you can see, I do have some like bluish color in there. This is like a 1v blue type. Color I'll have all that information in the description box, along with the link to the hair, I got it from elevate sales, calm, there's no need to ask y'all elevate sales, calm and I will have the hair linked down below if you're interested in this hair. Do I love this hair more than the bombuh dreads? Yes, these dreads are a little bit smaller and again the ends are tapered. Okay, so you don't have that blunt in, like you do with the Bumba dreads. So this look, you see how this looks after four weeks. It looks even more realistic. I love the way you know. They'Re shaped, how did I take care of the hair? I really truly didn't I didn't. I didn't want to take care of it because I wanted it to look natural, so I slept on it with no kind of scarf no kind of tie up. Nothing like that. I gathered my hair up with a ponytail holder and slept on it. That is all I did and it created the most natural looking faux locs. You know that I like, so this is the new lock okay, and this is what it looks like up close straight out of the package and, as you can see, the texture is there. I love the texture. You understand, like you, see how it's just kind of like textured. This is how it looks up close after about four weeks, and you see that those snags right here you see that, okay and, like I said you can just kind of snip those off or palm roll them. Alright, that's a close-up of the hair! Look at that beautiful the hair is pre loops. All you have to do is kind of crochet it in, but I will say this: the only con to this hair, all right. There pre looped for the crochet needle, but it's looped very tightly, and it's wound it. You know you have to it. I struck I struggled finding the hole of the loop okay, because the way that this thing is create that you really have to figure out kind of unwind. You got to kind of unravel it a little bit to find the hole. So that you're, not you know, stick it once you do okay, so like this once you do, it's no big deal, but you just kind of have to unravel it and kind of force. An opening in there. Okay, you kind of have to because I struggled I struggled with some of those. I really truly did struggle, but some of them, but once you have it attached, it looks so the texture on the top of this knot makes it look even more realistic. I love the texture of this hair just so awesome, not even as it sits on the braid. I love the way it sits on the braid and the braid, the plat blends very well with the texture of my hair. I have been wearing this hair out wearing it out. Okay, like I wish it was mine, I wish I wish these were really. I wish these were real. I really do I really wish these were real. I think you know that I love them. I think you know: okay, that's enough! That'S enough! Okay, how many packs did I use five? I used five packs. You guys, you will need more than that. I'M going to tell you that right now, you will need more than five packs. Okay, I recommend at least seven packs at least seven packs. I don't like a lot of hair in my head. I don't like it to be too dense when it comes to dreads, braids or even other kinds of hair. I don't like it too dense because that's just not realistic, I like it a little, you know, but this is five packs and you have to remember that I do have leave out here. I didn't you, I didn't use any hair. I didn't use any of the crochet here up here again. The braid pattern is very simple: this braids going back and a little tiny bit of leave out I've no leave out in the back and I'll leave out on the sides. Just in the immediate front. Okay, bend the little set about taking them down. I'Ve had them in for four weeks, and you know you guys sometimes I'll, wear depending on the hair. If the hair looks like I can make it I'll wear it. You understand I'm saying like I wear it, I'm not sure what I'm going to do next. So that's it. Thank you guys so much for watching. I will see you in the next yeah baseless

I've been natural for 2 years..and decided to do the big chop a month ago...leaving just enough hair to braid so I can try the styles I've seen in your videos. I also love that you seem like the girl we can chill and act crazy with. You always speak as though you're having a convo with a bunch of your girls. Keep it up,much love,joy and blessings from The Most High.
Face2fayce: I love the locs on you! They do look very realistic; some of my locs curl and do their own thing.I did a crochet on my daughter and I think I'll ask her if she likes these locs. Thanks so much for sharing!
IISweet007: Love the look on you! Great video

(btw I'm currently wearing the Bobbi boss micro locs...love the look of sista locs but they're too much to "manage" if u know what I mean). but can u PLEASE answer the other questions about your braid pattern and how you did your leave out or at least a small insert showing it. Thank you my Sista!!! Keep up your awesomeness!!!
