when did you stop re twisting yours… I’m 5 mons in… I soft twist now, basically “gently wrapping” the hair around the shaft…

I have been trying to cooperate this into my loc maintenance routine. I consider myself a semi free former… I go 3 months without retwist and I am finding my hairs grow away from locs in the front and on top where the hair is a more finer texture.I think this technique works well for me! Thank you for the informative video, as always.

That's for this, I started out natural dread, 4 years and then I started twisting them. I don't like to retwist often, and my locs started thinning (7 years and some are past my bra strap now,). I just learned about my new growth growing away from my locs. I pop my locs in the shower when I rinse out my conditioner. I can't wait to try this. 🙏🏾 For sharing. Love your Locs

Hi! Thanks so much for your support and i am pleased to know that the vids have influenced you in your own journey. I do not re-twist my locs anymore. From Nov. 2020 to May 2021 i used to retwist my locs about every month to 3 months. However, after May 2021 i never retwisted again and thats when i started semi-freeforming. Since then, for maintenance I braid my mew growth into my locs. I either do that or two-strand twist locs without retwisting or palm rolling. Thanks for your question!

Your locs are gorgeous! Try hair grease on your scalp! Yes, loc’d sisters can use hair grease. I got the idea from Desiree Marie. Love her videos. I love isoplus. I can go longer in between washes and no dry scalp. For me y’all those oils are only for my loc length. It’s the devil for my scalp. With oils my scalp was on fire!

Ahhhh, good question. I currently only do two styles with mine: either rope twists or half up, half down. I am not great at doing any updos just because I like low-tension hairstyles and my hair isn’t long enough to do too many updos with low tension. My biggest advice would be accessorize. You could always do a headwrap style. Those are always very elegant to me
