I’m 17 months 🔒. I kinda got discouraged around the 1yr mark and was actually thinking about cutting it but I decided against(thank goodness)it wasn’t until around 15 months that I looked back at my pics and realized dang I got hang time lol. I do see why everybody who is anybody that has locs, always says patience is key in this journey!

I’ve heard that the danger of thin locs is that they can break off due to a weak base. But you have been able to sustain great growth and thickness in your micro locs. Kudos !!! 👍

Thank you Roz. I think the thin locs or thick locs discussion, all has to do with the maintenance. All locs will thrive if you maintain them correctly and you follow a healthy regimen.

You are my inspiration. I had locs for 3yrs but I didn’t like thr thickness so I took them down 8yrs ago. I’ve been wanting dreads ever since but never was brave enough to take the plunge and like you I live in an area in the UK where getting sister locs is not possible. I watched your installation video 4 days ago and probably all your other videos on your channel😊. I tried interlocking, I did the first 8 at the back but they kept getting tangled in the next loc as my tool was too long so I decided to start with micro twist instead. My hair is quite similar in length and texture to your hair when you first started. Seeing you at 3yrs inspires me to just take each day as it comes and absolutely trust the process.

Currently, I’m 16months in and I love it even though sometimes it feels like I will have short hair forever. Best hair decision ever!

Hi Gifty, great video! And so encouraging to see your journey so far. I've two questions please: How did you combat the freeze? I just noticed mine has gotten worse over the months. And secondly, do you still use the dye you showed? Did you notice any change in your hair texture? Thanks

@fenetiwoman 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you Katsu, glad my documentation helped. What helps to ease the frizz is to embrace shrinkage, meaning: help your locs to shrink. It's the fastest way to combat frizz. 1. Minimize styling your locs (braidout, twists). 2. Wash them with a clarifying shampoo every 7-10 days, do not condition them. 3. Avoid daily moisturizing and just use water/pure rose water or distilled water. 4. Oil just your scalp only when needed. All this will help the frizz to merge into the locs and settle. Hope this helps.

@fenetiwoman 4 жыл бұрын

To your second question: yes, I still use the dye (mouse). My locs felt good and I did not need a conditioner on wash days. But what I noticed is that the colour does not hold long, eventhough its said to be permanent.
