Just got installed today! This is my second time having locs after cutting my 10 year old locs three years ago. Im so excited to go through this journey again as I’m so much more confident than 17 year old me who was so insecure. 31 year old me is going to sway on these people with my new locs. 😂

Maybe try tying it up in a scarf os substituting with a stress ball? You definitely want to try to keep your hands out of your hair as much as possible. Good luck!

@eyesata114 Жыл бұрын

@Ifeyinwa Жыл бұрын
Hey, no they’re not the same. Interlocking refers to the method or technique of establishing a loc. During the interlocking process locticians will usually use a tool to essentially knot your hair with various rotations. Retightening refers to the process of locking your regrowth as your hair grows out. In my case, the interlocking method is used to retie my locs, but there are various other methods that can be used to retighten your locs. I hope that helps!

haha, sometimes I wonder if my sense of humour is too random for this platform so I'm always happy when other people appreciate it. But yes, I've seen quite a few people start off their locs with braid/twist combos. It might take a bit longer to fully lock but I've definitely seen it work.
