I’ve watched a lot of loc videos and by far I like yours because you take your time section by section and one loc at a time with close ups. I’m getting something from various videos but I loved watching yours . I know this is 4 months ago so hopefully you will reply. Did you wash your hair prior to your 1.5 month re-twist? It look so thick so I’m wondering if that contributed to the thickness of the new growth? I love your hair. A must save video

Hi thanks for your comment! I'm so glad you enjoy the loc vids! I did wash my hair prior to that re-twists. Having clean hair helps greatly because for me, it frees the scalp from a lot of build up that could be clogging the pores

@holisticflo

Congrats on starting with your loc journey! If you absolutely wanna start with twists you can even if they keep falling out keep putting the twists back in. I would try using less product actually because it can make the hair less slippery so they won’t slide out as easily. However, when you’re locing your hair, you’re training your hair to stay in that form. So your hair probably isn’t used to the twists so just keep twisting back up and eventually your hair will get the memo lol And thanks for the compliment 🫶🏾

There’s plenty of people with thinner hair strands and/or less dense hair and from my observation, they usually make their locs a lot smaller so they’ll have at least 200 locs in their head that way your hair will be more spread out into more sections and create the illusion that you have more hair. I think anyone looks good with locs! Its all up to what you wanna do at the end and how you wanna rock them

Hello. And I would wash my hair in sections. So I wouldn’t have it out loose. I would put it in 4 sections and band it with those black goodie hair ties. I believe I did that for the first two months. After that, my hair started to loc up and no longer needed to wash it in sections

Honestly I couldn’t tell you when you should because I don’t know you hair like you do so I can’t tell you for sure. But if you’re 2 or 3 months in with starter locs, I will recommend washing once a month, after that I recommend more frequently maybe every 3 weeks or 2 weeks whatever feels best to you

Only if your twists are unraveling, you will want to re-two-strand-twist your locs so you can train the hair to loc...if that's what you mean. I hope I answered the question.

wait...so you started with 2 strands and never took em out. instead you re-twisted the new growth while keeping the 2 strands intact? eventually the 2 strands turned into a single loc?

Less manipulation or touching your hair (if any at all) and unraveling is natural during the beginning stages, keep twisting/coiling it back until the hair is trained to stay in place

Throughout the first 5 months I had my locs, I retwisted them 4 times and I did them myself. After the month of May, I stopped re-twisting and decided to semi-freeform my locs which means no re-twist but just separating my roots everytime I wash so they don't marry at the root
