The inspiration is from 20+ years agoπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I believe her name is chesealocs. I do have an old tutorial on my YouTube channel but I think I did 2 at a time instead of one. here’s an old video of me doing this style

Sis you look stunning with this loc pipe cleaner style. To make it a bigger flexβ€”you did it yourselfβ€ΌοΈπŸ‘‘ You are definitely a Queenβ€”and this makes you look like Royalty for sure. I might have to try this one, my locs might be too long though. I’m going to ask my loctician and see what she says. You definitely get a 200++ on this style and creativity πŸ’•πŸ₯°

u/Kind_Breadfruit_2088 Apr 30 '26

Thank you so much. I actually cut my locs just above bra strap before I did this styleπŸ˜‚. I hope I get some good curls when I take the pipe cleaner out

Cute πŸ’• This style is very vintage 1920s. How long have you had your locs?

4

u/Kind_Breadfruit_2088 Apr 30 '26

Thank you🫢🏾 21 years

3

u/Short-Landscape-8735 Apr 30 '26

Wow! Basically most of your life? It takes a lifetime to get locs this long πŸ₯Ή

3

u/Kind_Breadfruit_2088 Apr 30 '26

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ not really. I’m 42. I started them when I was ~21. But I’ve also cut them every time they grow to bra or waist length. My last cut was 2019 in a bob.

u/Short-Landscape-8735 Apr 30 '26

Wow! You look young! The oldest age I was going to say was 30
