6 Month Visual Loc Journey! This is a visual loc journey of my starter locs from month 1 to month 6. I have included lots of pictures and videos to show the transformation of my locs over that time period.
I hope that my journey inspires you and if you are feeling discouraged with your journey, don't give up! Patience is the key! What has been the most difficult part of your journey so far? Let me know in the comments!

"I struggled with my loose natural hair"... I identify with that statement so much. I loved my loose natural hair, but I just did not know what to do with it. I tried for 8 long years LOL and just couldn't find anything that worked for it. So I was always putting it in box braids because I loved the creative hair styles I could do with them. I felt like I'd get similar results if I loc'd it up, so here I am. 8 months deep lol. I've wanted them for years anyway. Not sure why I waited so damn long.

Same I did absolutely nothing with my loose natural hair and I’ve been natural since 2012. I have 3C hair and I would literally just wear a ponytail or two braids/flat twist. I just started my third loc journey yesterday with finger coils and I’m so excited to see my hair flourish. I took my locs out after 7 1/2 months because I decided interlocking wasn’t for me. I didn’t like the way it made my hair look/feel and I was creating holes in my locs ☹️

Lol yes I struggled! And idk why I waited so long either but you definitely have to be ready when you start this journey

Omg this is me I been natural for 8 years and 6 months and I'm ready to lock all I wanted to do was grow to BSL and I have tried EVERYTHING I think I need to force myself to retain length by locking

I am soooo tempted to just loc my hair. I always said I'd do it once I got a bit older and didn't want to worry about twists and puffs anymore, but man... This might be the fifth video I've watched this weekend. I think they're calling me.

To you the starter locs were short but they're the length my hair is now and it took me over a year to get to this point. My day one locs were sooo short they made me insecure. But not as insecure as my baby afro that just shriveled up nonstop. A few months later I loved my hair and have been loving it ever since. I wish I hadn't waited so long, locking my hair was the best decision I ever made and had I done it a couple years back my hair would be flourishing so much more in length and thickness 🥰
