Your hair is SO pretty and this is really helpful. I’ve been contemplating starting mine over (traditional locs - 61) but I’m *just* about to hit 1 yr, 8 mos on May 1. All of what you were sharing from the traditional loc experience I *keep* feeling. Thanks for sharing this perspective!
Thank you so much! Honestly, if they don’t make you feel good, don’t be afraid to comb them out & start over or comb them out for good.. whatever you’re feeling.
I went for a consultation for micro locs the loctician told me the microlocs are prone to breakage she stated she will start my locs with comb coils but make them small.. feel like I'm settling although I feel like the maintenance for Tiny traditional locs vs micro will be suitable
I feel like, depending on the size & whether or not you keep up with your maintenance schedule… determines a lot. I haven’t had any breakage, but I have had some to grow thinner than they should (mostly around my edges).

Gorgeous locs, Sis!
Thanks for your honesty about the pros and cons
Of course!
They are beautiful Jess 🥰
Thank you for the update! How many locs do you have?
No problem! I don’t know the exact number, but close to 400
