That’s what I’m doing. I’ve had traditional locs for 7 years now and I used to only retwist every 4 to 5 months. Then I went a year without retwist and now I’m just not manipulating my locs at all. Just wash and keep them piled.
My sister had her fro. She would call me in her room and show me the locs that started lol she would comb them out. She wants to start locs but she waiting for the right time
I’m 8 months loc’ed and I’ve only retwisted twice for months 1 and 2. I just KNEW I’d be obsessed with maintenance, but l now I couldn’t be bothered. My hair is so coily so it twist on it’s own at the roots. I’m so surprised that my hair is just doing it’s thing with almost no maintenance!
I keep hearing to not semi-free form from lociticans one told me she'd charge me double then another refused after my consultation bc she only wants to work on 'uniform and neat hair' (prob just to post) then the last one said if I semi-free form all my hair would fall out...growing up around rasta or people w locs though ive never heard of that! Living in a predominantly white city is hard because most of these locticans only work on their heads or are anti-free form/semi free form so it was great to hear someone explain how to start w semi free forms early in their journey !
That is why while I do appreciate locticians, I advocate for learing your own hair, which I'm glad you do! To me, there is nothing wrong with semi freeforming if your locs have a strong base
I'm 6 months in on braidlocs. Had about 2 retwist. And now I'm semi freeformin it. Frizz is become more acceptable but hair is a lot thicker than I thought I love it. Love your locs and the info
I love my locs it’s been since 2009 I took on this journey I learn so much but I learn to love my self u not going to look so like ur self but I wouldn’t trade it for anything ❤
how do i avoid thinning at the root when i start semi freeform’s? and if i wanted to do semi freeform could i start by coiling the root and two strand twist all the way down?
Hi. I just started my hair growth journey; and my hair is 6months now.. I wanna know if it’s okay for me to be applying hair growth hair cream on my hair every day?? Not like I wash my hair everyday(just let water on it but no washing) but I apply hair cream on it every time I take a shower
@@holisticflo i don’t know. Just doing it cause I feel my hair get to stop growing at some point… is why I decided to get a hair booster this time around
There’s always someone to come along and try place people into categories. Who cares. Call it what you want; it’s your hair. Do what you want with it. How come other races don’t make a big deal over what to call their hair?
Humans enjoy being put into categories if you look at the entire language and ego. We thrive off of what we "identify as". Most humans, at least. Others just play along with it to survive
