I have 68 locs and I also started with 2 strand twists. I’m 5 months in and my locs are maturing nicely HOWEVER my hair texture is finer in the back and I’m noticing that on the bottom row of locs, I have 3 that are significantly thinner and longer compared to the rest. I might combine, but I also like the size disparity & curly ends so I might leave it alone. Adds a little razzle dazzle 😂

I am 10 months into my loc journey. I have 78 locks give or take one or two. I wanted to see what you look like because I keep seeing people with 100 to 120 locs and I’m wondering if mine were too big or if my hair was really thin because I do have fine thin hair. Other than the awkward length I’m very happy with my locks at this point. I got them because honestly I couldn’t afford to keep getting my hair done and this is a much cheaper alternative and looks good.

I have very low-density hair, 4c, and very fine. I started my locs (did them myself) with no parting, I freestyle just by using my hand to grab a piece of hair the size I wanted them. I started with 96 but had to either split four they were a little too large for my taste, so now I have 100. By the way, my hair (two-strand twist) will start to loc in a few days, no joke. I stopped two-strand twisting my hair and only braid it just because of that. One thing I have to say, my hair was to my waist when I started my locs, how did they shrink all the way to just my shoulders lol! It doesn't bother me and I am so enjoying my journey. I have not, retwist yet, but will do this weekend after five weeks starting and YES, there is a lot of new growth. I do palm roll and detangled my hair at least twice a week to keep it from joining together and because I want my ends to remain curly, I add moisturizing curl butter (to my ends ONLY) every other day. I have shampooed my hair (in braids) twice since starting my loc with no problem, a few in the back came undone and I just retwisted. Do you think 100 locs will be enough to cover my head once they mature? I cannot see my scalp with the new grow but I know I will when I retwist this weekend. Thanks for all the recommendations and sorry for the long post.

I think the amount you have is good honestly especially once you said you don't have a scalpy look when your nee growth comes in, i think that's a good sign

My hair is fine, and I think I have low density. I have 339 starter microlocs, and I have to convince myself that it's a good number. I wish I had more, but I don't think my hair would be healthy in the long run. At least now I have a good and solid foundation. When I look at my hair, I can't actually picture splitting the locs into two. They would be too tiny and probably unhealthy. Anyway, I just hope they fill in eventually.

@@gabespeed4865 i don't know if there's a way you can add any, unless you have a loctician do a "loc repair" and thats usually done on broken or thinning locs. Either that or add some hair in. But neither of those i would recommend for you i'd just start over if you really don't like them

I have 44 full head but want to restart. I wanted 36 exactly (i had a particular reason) but noticed a week later the stylist not only didn’t install correct number she also didn’t do parts right. It is hard to find a stylist to do exactly what you want.
