How often should you get a retwist?

Regardless of your locs maintenance technique, you should see your loctician every 4- 6 weeks.
For a palm rolling maintenance and a good loc wash. Spoil yourself.
Even if you are interlocking or crocheting, get your loctician to evaluate your hair monthly so you don't come up with, "My locs are breaking, and I don't know why."
If you stick to a consistent loc maintenance routine, you will have no problems.
You do it with your car, your nails, your waxing routine if you do that, your dental care, etc.
Add your locs maintenance routine into your routines. You wouldn't skip a car oil change, would you?

Im not at my 1yr mark yet and I prefer not to retwist too often. I started out going every 6 weeks but went from October-January with zero retwists and I was perfectly ok with my choice. Currently I'm washing and retwisting in my own only because I'm working in person more often😭

Paying for loc maintenance in New York City is crazy. That's why I'm going to loc detox, wash, condition and crochet retwist it myself. I think people should learn to retwist their loc so they can minimize and eliminate going to a loctician

I was thinking, why would I pay for a retwist that keeps unraveling every time I wash my hair. Then I discovered that it's not only the twisting of the locs that helps them form but the parting as well. I lightly wash my hair every other day, even after a retwist, because the parting remains even when the palm rolling unravels a bit. It works!
