Welcome FLocers (fellow locers and aspiring locers). In this video I talk about the pros and cons of retwisting locs on your Loc journey.
Some cons to retwisting Locs:
1️⃣ retwist doesn’t last long (you can sweat it out or if you accidentally get it wet)
2️⃣ over manipulation of your Locs can lead to loc thinning or balding
3️⃣ having to use a gel or something for hold to keep the locs in placr for a long time
4️⃣ if your locs are short, having to use medal clips on your locs
Pros for retwisting locs:
1️⃣ it’s a quick maintenance style
2️⃣ easy to maintain yourself
3️⃣ fresh looking locs with a retwist
4️⃣ if you make it too tight you can undo it easily

I can't say how much I love the clean look of retwists including the neatness of the body of the loc, but my retwists last for only 2 days at most and the clips make my tender scalp even more sore, so I stick with interlocking and I'm happy with the results. Interlocking is easy for me and I think it's because I like doing crochet and embroidery and the interlocking process is similar. Great tips!

Thanks for watching?! 2 days max??? Yeah that is rough. My week stretch definitely wasn’t in the summer when I start sweating the moment I step outside 😅

I'm glad to have this video to come back to. Though I wanted more "compressed" locs and was nervous about the 2hr shelf life of a retwist, I did interlocking once (1) and I said "yeahhh imma head out" 💀 Thank you for uploading! This was so useful

The 2 hour shelf life 😂 It really is give or take with either type of maintenance!

Hey there😊I prefer interlocking. It's just more secure for me. I like the curves in your style.

Hey! And thank you 🙌🏾☺️ I’m right there with you. I enjoy interlocking my hair and then not having to worry about it coming undone at all!

Hey does anyone know how you go about retwisting braid locs? Like do you have to interlock cause I don’t want to , I want to start my locs with braids and just twist it as it grows.

You can 100% retwist and not interlock. Interlocking just last much longer but retwisting is going to be much quicker and in a lot of cases give your locs a more consistent and cylindrical look

@@DavidJaysWay thank you okay . I’m trying not to be obsessed with neatness . And I don’t know much about interlocking , but it don’t look like that’s good for your hair . Like if they wanted to take their locs out one day I don’t think it would be good .
@DavidJaysWay

You can comb out interlocks but you have to be more careful since the locs are intertwined in a different way so you don’t rip through the hair.
