Have you gone back to gel for retwisting now? Does it mean it didn't feel good after the mousse? Or something else

I have had mine 6 months I haven’t retwistes yet most are loc’ed a few aren’t. I play in my hair a lot. I notice the ones I dnt play with loc’d quickly the ones I play with need or seem to need a retwist. I dont know. They are pretty none the less but I’m trying to train myself to leave them alone. Will it hurt my locs if I don’t get them retwisted by a professional? I been maintaining them myself

Thanks for the amazing advice!❤ I currently have locs which are 2 yrs old but I’m thinking it’s best to comb them out as my density does not match the size of the parts, my hair has thinned so much with post partum shedding and continues to break😢. I think a fresh start is best and I’ll definitely incorporate your tips.
