I loved your tip 5. 🙌🏽 I’m in my 3rd year at Uni. I had an Afro from the middle of my 1st year. I found it to be the most time consuming hairdo ever! So I switched to dreads the day before classes began, this year. BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE! It’s so low maintenance it reminds me of the 4 years I used to shave my head. My curriculum is hectic so I really needed this. I’m not loving how it looks right now but the benefits of having locks far outweighs all that I feel about it. Also I’m too busy to dwell on how I look. I wear bucket hats most of the time anyway because I don’t like the sun on my face, so this allows me to hide them on most days. I take lots of pics and videos of this phase. I wanna remember it. ❤️

If I wasn’t rocking my budding babies I wore wigs, rocked headwraps, and even Marley twists.. basically everything people said I couldn’t do with immature locs (except permanently dying them 🚫). 😂😂 I still accessorize my look with different glasses (prescription cuz sis needs to see clearly lol). I also attach loc jewelry to hair pins so I’m not compromising the integrity of my locs

estadje I experienced buildup especially on my edges mainly due to oils, sweat, and edge control. I honestly shouldn’t have done the Marley twists so soon in my journey. When I took them out 3 (almost 4) weeks later some of my locs tried to join together. Of course I panicked. 😂😂😂😂 If you do Marley twists or faux locs don’t leave them in too long so you don’t compromise the integrity of your growing locs.

I had 14 inches added to my 8 inches loc hair that was a huge mistake after two years it was extremely heavy hurting my neck then I had had a hysterectomy then I went through menopause which I’m still in so I ended up cutting everything off and starting completely over. I’m not gonna add any more extensions and that’s where I’m at but it is so ugly having short hair for me, I might look cute but I never had short hair think about putting a stocking cap on and putting on set up a curly Afro wig for the next four months I have 3 inch starter locks. I couldn’t even untangle my Locs😮 so that’s why I ended up cutting them completely off, this time I do not want gel in my hair that was most of the problem. I saw People to Locs with oil or Shea butter, but not bee wax. ;-) Watching your videos because I definitely need encouragement. Went to short hair.😩😌

And I hear what you mean by having a loc buddy, but it’s different when your journey is mostly looked down upon by others. I got my hair instant locked for my second journey (no extensions) and everywhere I go, I hear loc people talking down on instant locs. I don’t even like calling my hair locs because I feel like I don’t belong

That’s gotta be pretty frustrating. I’m sorry you’re going through that! Your experience is definitely more unique but please stay encouraged!!! You are apart of this family too!
@chocobrigade4 жыл бұрын
TP locks I’ll try! With pressure from my family with how my first natural loc journey looked (rough) and the fact that my parts weren’t right at ALL (a mix of sharpie sized ones and thinner than pencil sized ones) I just wanted my hair to have a good healthy parting system and to look a little more ahead than I was. And even now, though I got instant locs, they honestly look like I’m only on month 8, since I was on month 4 when I combed my first set out.

F*** them. They are'nt paying for anything. Do what you want. Its your head.

The only difference is you skipped the budding process and got the loc instantly which is the whole point of locs.

Did yall locs in the lower back of ur head take longer to loc up? I'm assuming its because they're like baby hairs almost cause they're at the base of the head
