Me watching with waves 🌊👁👄👁🌊
Join the gang lol
Same lol
I try to get dreadlocks but my hair cant grown that much
Same G
Me too but I’m growing it out AGIAN😭😭😭😭
The main thing I had to learn was that everybody dreads look different. Can’t force it just gotta let them thangs grow✊🏽
💯🎯
Facts, there’s no right or wrong way with dreads, they’re all unique
This would be minesss
This would be minesss
Apologies for this being so long but wanted to add a few things to consider. I had locs for 22 years for spiritual reasons (Jewish Nazarites wore locs as a form of dedication/sacrifice to God). All of the mistakes this brother talks about in the video is true. I'd like to add from my experience, all hair types, growth patterns and locing patterns are different: 1 person with tight curl pattern (4c hair) can develop developing buds (those knots forming at the tips of the hair) in 3 mths or less while 4a-b hair may take 6mths to form a 1/2 to 1 inch bud. Don't comb or pull out those knots/buds forming at the ends of your locs..that bud is the base/foundation of the loc beginning to form. My mature locs were around the 2yr mark when I could put it in a ponytail and didnt need to retwist after each 3 week shampoo. I used peppermint shampoo to remove any dirt or oil build up and used a light natural oil on my scalp. Locs don't get as dirty as wearing you hair regularly because you're not using a lot of products that form build-up/residual on the hair strands and scalp . Also, many locs are not shiny but have a natural matte (non-shiny) color. Applying light natural oils will help to shine them up when sunlight hits them. I did tie my locs every night and would still do a light re-twist every other day with clear watered down gel or aloe vera gel to keep my locs from frizzing (corporate work place). Aloe vera gel is good to use to re-twist but can also be drying on some hair types. Re-twisting made it easier to maintain my sections/parts after shampooing until the buds were formed, just don't twist too tightly, especially the base of the scalp, this is to keep those wandering trailer strands/hairs in place as they form the loc cylinder. I'd also use clips to hold down the locs while twisting. I preferred a neater look.
Important: Don't start locs too thin. Locs will expand 2-3 times the size of the original starter loc (as old hair is shed and wraps around the already formed bud). Use a base no less than 1/2" wide to avoid breaking/snapping between years 7-10 because of the weight and pull of the loc. Normal life of an individual hair strand is approximately 7 years this allows shedding and a new hair to take it's place. My starter loc base width was 1/8" to 1/4" and a few started snapping around year 7 because each hair strand had a different life cycle and had been shedding as time went on. Avoid ALL petroleum, wax and alcohol products! (Read the labels) Alcohol dries out hair and the others will take Forever to remove the residual build up. (yes i tried sunlight and it took 10-12 washes to get that stuff somewhat out) It will save on scalp and loc problems years later. I colored my locs a few times, but found each time, the dye damaged the hairs forming the locs, Yeah they looked cute/stylish but some of the Tips began to snap and unravel after a few years. After shampooing (and if you've re-twisted), get your locs as dry as possible. By year 7, my locs would take 2 days to fully dry which can be a drag in the winter time especially in Chicago. And, some ppl have had problems with mold forming if the scalp and locs haven't been fully cleaned and dried thoroughly. The locs will develop a "musty smell" that comes from shampoo and products build up used in re-twisting. Please wash your do rags, hair bonnets and pillow cases frequently. Clarifying shampoos and vinegar rinses may help to alleviate these problems. Make sure your final rinse for at least 5 minutes to make sure all shampoo and dirt is removed. Lint can build up inside the loc cylinder and overtime becomes matted and embedded in your loc.
I'm not a fan of constant interlocing/crocheting. I think it puts to much tension (weight on the locs) as they get longer. I used the twist and palm roll method. My hair was 3 inches when I started twisting my hair and after finishing each loc was only 1/2" long. I have started locs on customers who had hair length of 1" and worked with them until they had 3-4" formed locs and could maintain on their own (approx. 6mths). No longer doing locs for customers, however, am starting my grandson's high-top locs this weekend with 2 strand twist. It will be interesting since he has 3b/3c combo hair and Rona is still going strong. He said he's not in it for the long journey, just a style. His sides and back are already faded.
Final thoughts, be patient and understand the reason why you decided to go on this journey. Remember the reason Why you started, remind yourself daily, as you look in the mirror and admire the unique individual loc personalities forming and doing it's own thing, that every bit of this growth process is for the greater good which is in yourself, for yourself, or the higher power that motivated this journey.
May God Bless You Always! ~Peace~
So much informations thank you xx
Dope comment. I needed this❤
Beautifully said!!!
This comment is GOLD❣
Thank you for sharing, these tips complemented TP Locks so well!!! I plan on starting my locs in next few weeks and appreciate this❣
@@CrownedxKay Yes..TP did an excellent job with his very informative video and I truly appreciate him for it. Please remain encouraged during the process and ignore/dismiss all negativity. Positivity, encouragement and reinforcement is so important which is why I put that reminder in my original post. There will be days when 1, 2 or more locs will go off on a short journey of their own and will stick up, out, sideways, etc no matter how much you pin, twist or try to redirect them. The Insights you'll gain during this journey will truly be YOUR very personal GOLD reward. The loc journey is as long as YOU determine and not anyone else's expectation. Good Luck and May God Bless You Always!
Why am I watching this video, i m Asian and i have an exam tomorrow
Do you have Locs? Lol 😂
@@TPlocks No!
Im asian but i have locs
Jeremy Lin
Lolol
the last mistake hit home for me .. the starter loc journey is humbling .. but im still hanging in there
Stick it through family! If I can get through my lil loc nuggets you can too! 😅
very humbling kept washing my hair every 3 days cause it kept getting frizzy i’m trying to hold on like a week strong right now
@@ybcdamee hang in there! i just hit 6 months. This channel is a great resource. and take lots of pics cuz once its gone, its gone
@@flood808 might try to go freeform that way i can start washing every 3 days or so then slowly work up to like once a week cause my hair is really loose
“I’m hearin’ it but I’m not really hearin’ it”
Lol
I started mine a month ago yesterday. The part about having high expectations really hit hard. Thanks for the vid.
You’re welcome! Thanks for the support!
How's the journey so far?
What I love about my hair, I wake up lookin like a rebel runnin her own life, free of anyone's negative judgement.
Don't be hard, journeys always got bumps ✌🏻
I love it!! And you’re right! I got a few bumps for sure!! 🙏🏾 Thanks as always Kare!! 😁
@@TPlocks 😉
I had dread back in the 80s, come 90s i dyed my dreads as i DJ and wanted to look a little different. Nobody was dying dresds back then as its was only rasta man and they did not do so. Was i the first. I'm 50 now and posted sn old picture of me with my dreads dyed on facebook many years ago and people was saying look a you blond dreads making jokes. But moving forward some years. Everyone is dying their dreads and i did so 30 years ago. 👊🏾🔥
DO U HAVE DREADS NOW
@@kairokeem205 Instarted to grow them back nearly 2 years ago.
Man, I honestly want more African ladies to have locks bro
Me to
our mothers say it’s for men or masculine women 🤷🏾♀️ whatever, i’m 14 when I move out i’m gonna let my hair growwww
Sister locks
Its like a sea of African American women posting their loc journey vids on here. Watch like 3 vids and you will be swarmed with recommendations of those type vids. Many commetors and their followers to are on their journey too. Hell I'm starting my locs in 5 more days! We out hea!
We're working on it. Starting my second set now!
I started my locs yesterday and I'm watching the do's and don'ts for locs and this has been very helpful
I just wanted to say I appreciate you keeping your ads under 2 minutes 🙌🏽. I always want to support the you tubers I faithfully watch, but I’m not sitting here for 5 minutes of Ads 😂
I need to make sure it stays that way! They are sneaky with it sometimes! I’ve got my ad settings on auto as of now but definitely let me know if it’s too much!
And trust me I’ll skip my own video if I gotta wait for an ad! 😂😂
Me watching this 8 years in and locs down past my behind. Stay strong, kings and queens, and be kind to your crown. I literally had no expectations and knew very little about caring for my locs. Educate yourselves and know everyone's hair is different.
Love a man that talks about his hair dying mistakes.
Transparency always on this channel! Lol
Get your retwist before your cut so they know what to cut
Facts
glad i seen this comment starting my journey with comb twist friday then cut after
so we gotta look rough for a month
Lol I do the opposite
I started June 20 this year and I’m determined to stay the course. Good advice here bro
Happy to help family! 🔥🔥
I started in june too but untwisted them and got em back on the 10 of August
No dyles, few styles, make sure it dries
Yo me too I started June 25th
Did they start to lock up yet
just dont die your locs, wash with sunlight soap, a bi-monthly lather in the sun to assist the bleaching process, side note; dreads become soft and cushiony with little to no residual damage at all
Yeah man, it’s a slow process but in my experience the most pleasant on a sensitive strand as it toughens the hair too.
P.s. 12year veteran
Anytime man, if you’re dreading try do it as naturally as possible, they’ve become a fashion statement (in our time) and in some ways that somewhat disrespects the true essence of Rastafari. I’m speaking from experience of doing it for my matric dance and finding myself growing into this crown and deeper towards Rastafari
Yo could you post a pic in here would love to see the color your dreads came out from it
I’ve been having my locs for a year and 2 months .. I retwist my hair every 4wks and my roots and locs are thick and healthy still
Yeah I am about the same I do it every 4 weeks/ a month but I think when they’re a little longer and won’t stick up too much after growth I’ll wait longer.
Me too !!! Well I’m 8mo i am pushing it on week 4/5!!! Week 5 i look like a mad lady 😂
But my roots are healthy and i don’t have any thinning/small Locs
Just keep on lol
I started in May , and I love the journey of locs. Me and my girlfriend is doing this together which makes it even more special. I’m determined not to give up and let my hair do what it do. Please keep making these videos for your subscribers they are so motivational much thanks TP locks!
I’m so happy to motivate you on your journey! That goes both ways! It’s really cool you and your girl are doing it together as well! My wife wouldn’t join me in mine! 😅
Same bro may 12 me and my dreads bday💯
@@portboy6938 im june 17 yessirrer bro
I am still going strong a year and such later and 4 months will be 2 years. TP definitely played a positive role in me figuring myself and MY own hair out. Appreciate it brother and I'm just rewatching alot of your videos. Forever informative and supportive. 👏🏾 👏🏾
Locs are a journey, you learn a lot about the process. A bunch of trial and error but that makes the journey unique and special. It’s dope we have a community here through your channel, keep that good genuine content flowing 🔥
Thanks family ✊🏾
Thank you for sharing your journey and dos & dont. I’m 6days into my first ever locs. I’m so happy to have found your videos, watching them has made me more confident and less anxious about my journey with locs☺️✌🏽✌🏽
Had to subscribe man you definitely dropping straight FACTS about the loc journey. Patience is definitely key because some people get their length quicker then others but when you begin to see you getting yours no better feeling!!!
I've been locking for 15 years and you definitely know what you're talking about.
Thanks family. I appreciate the affirmation. 😁
Beez wax messed up my 1st set od locs and I ended up having to cut my locs. I regret it to this day! To Dis day! Lol
To this day!!! Lol I was so mad when fury knocked em out smh
Use water
I just started my loc journey, I just got my locs on 9-20-20, and you’ve really confirmed all my thoughts. I’m gonna keep u updated on my journey.💯
bro, I started my locks about 7 months after you and got my first proper retwist yesterday (been doing everything on my own from your videos). The loctition was impressed with how well kept and healthy my hair is. Thank you :)
Damnit fam, I did it again. I watched this while my daughter was napping and the "to this day" clip insert took me out!🤣🤣🤣
Next time I'm putting her on a plane and sending her to y'all, sleep deprived and all!
#5 is real! What many don't realize is you can't always compare your locs to others. Their 1 year locs might not look like your 1 year mark. So many factors involved; hair texture, length, density, etc. I feel like finally at 30 months my locs are taking off. My 1st set, by year 1 I was already off and running. It's nice to watch others' journey. Have to watch out for that loc envy though!
I feel like Loc envy is the number one killer of journeys! People set the wrong expectations and forget to love their own uniqueness. You hit it all with this comment!! 🔥🔥
Love the tips you give. I'm in my seventh month. And listen to you make all the the doubts go away. My wife doesn't like the fuzzy look but I've learned to accept it.
I’m glad to help family! All of the frizz gets better! I can personally prove it with my journey lol
This is def type 5 of informative UA-cam videos. When you mentioned you hair being art and to not have high expectations but to take your time. It reminded me of my fitness journey. it took me a while, but I learned a lot along the way and I truly appreciate my body for what it is today.
I've recently started on my loc journey. Thanks to @tplocks I felt like I was truly prepared to start strong. Thank you.
1 and a half months in and I’ve seen a lot of progress already, this video helped so much! I will definitely be patient
Man I’ve started like 5-6 times I’m glad I watched this. Appreciate it my boy 🙏🏿
Glad to help fam! 🔥
I thank you. I'm at a year and its great to know not only women feel this way about their locs. I have a love/hate relationship with my locs. But wanna continue the journey. Thanks again
Very helpful ! I just made eight months of my loc journey. I’m excited for them to grow longer and healthier & this video is great .
I got proud today I thought I had a spider crawling on my neck turns out it was just one my starter locs lol
😂😂😂 were you shook!?
I don’t even know if I can watch anyone else. He’s saved me from so many bad decisions in just two days!
I really love your videos, I just started my loc journey in April of this year and thanks to your videos it give me the motivation and the insight to really look forward on this journey. Thanks a lot 😎😁
I appreciate you brother!! Just locked my hair sat and searched for good information. Not knowing what to do and your channel gives me a lot of information.
No matter how good your hair is, growing dreads, your going to lose some and have to cut some but that's what make them your locs they're going to adjust to your body, and honestly it grows with your mindset
About when you said you twisted your hair too much I heard that somewhere one time and I was so scared my hair would fall out 😂😂😂 I got my hair retwisted every 2 or 3 months
Oh nah you’re good’ 😂
Patients and confidence is what I told, I just got mine started yesterday and I'm excited
You drop straight knowledge young man! Much appreciated. Just started my second loc journey!
I've had my locks 5 years and everything he said is facts. Great video
9:50 that’s me all day 😂. I definitely would just cut my own hair, unless I really need to get fresh. I don’t have dreads yet. Still waiting for it to get a bit longer. It’s about an inch in a half right now. This will be my second set. Can’t wait. I’m taking my 9 year old son to get his first set of locks. He wants me to get them as well. Definitely will be a dope journey. I didn’t have kids when I had mine. Both my kids have seen old pics of me. Even my 12 year old daughter wants me to get them 😂. Truthfully, I don’t think my son will last with it, but I’ll definitely keep mine going. If he does, he’ll shock the mess out of me 😂.
This was a refreshingly honest video.
Thank you 😊
Ive got at least 5 years ahead of me until my locs reach where I would love them be. Until then I just keep em clean and moisturised. I exercise patience without rushing the process or obsessively examining them 😆
I'll say it again - so glad you stopped having the fades.
I’ve been wanting to get locs for the LONGEST!! Currently been researching and finding other people on the journey as well, I plan on starting in the next month or so and I’m hyped❤️ BEAUTIFUL locs by the way!
I like this color that you have now.
See that’s why I’m weighing my options on the color that I want, I don’t want no regrets 🙅🏾♀️
Damn hearing how many times u dyed ya hair made my skin crawl😭
ong 😂😂
😂
your mistake is having dreads to begin with
@@antpage4106 you good?
@@fukquro i dont sound like it this brotha is goin thru it or sum💀
I'm 6 months in with my journey
Thank you for the tips
Much appreciated ✊🏾
Thanks for the advice!! Haven't started my loc journey yet, but I am leaning towards it... Appreciate you 🙏🏾 💙
Thank you for your helping. Some girl told me to get beeswax yesterday. Glad I watched this first
Daaannnggg every time i go on you tube u got a new video! There always informative! Thanks! Keep grindin!
Imma sneak and take a vacations eventually. Take y’all on a different content journey! Lol
Yes, YES on talking about how too much manipulation can damage and stress on your hair. I know I will only be twisting mine only two and a half months. And yes, ditching the wax and other resins are not cool. I do light oils and water mixtures. Love you vids.
Two weeks into my loc journey, will definitely subscribe!
I’m 10 months and 8 days in now.....1 year on 11/30/20😤🔥🔥
Message at the end was much needed. Thank you.
I’m glad you received it!! 🙏🏾 always hopeful these videos resonate!! Also thanks so much for watching that far!😅
Hey I am a first time watcher, new subscriber. I loved the honesty in this video. I recently celebrated my 1 year loc’d anniversary and went through quite a bit of the mistakes you made as well. I look forward to watching your journey continue to flourish ✌🏾& ✨
Monique Nelson welcome to my channel! :) so glad to have ya!! And I like to keep it as real as possible with the loc family! 😅
I started a week ago, and I'm interlocking soon. this advice really helped bro! hope everything goes your way in life
Not da "coastline" bruh?!!! I hollered! 🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭 But seriously, Preciate this video. I already changed my expectations for this very reason. And I also decided right before I got my coils to learn how to cut my own hair. Side note - (And I only gashes it once before I figured it out!) The only info I can't relate to is the coloring. But as always thank you thank you thank the good brotha TP! We need this! We need dem bomber jackets that you making 😉! And the journey continues!
Keep speaking it! I’m working on it family! And thank you for always being a source of encouragement for me as well! Keeps ya boy motivated to keep at it!! 🔥🔥
I have thought about dyeing my dreads but I’m worried my hair will break because it’s super dark. Also that knit beanie with your dreads is straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love your locs! I did same by dying my loc too early and now on my 2nd set, lesson learned. Also, you have beautiful eyes. Be well King!
Thank you for sharing about your experience, this is super helpful! I am looking to loc my hair for the first time this month, super excited as have wanted locs for years... My hair has 3 different textures so I had hoped to get it done professionally last year but as it seems I may never be able to see a loctician. I am ready to start on my own. Wish me luck! and thank you once again :-)
I twist my dreads regularly out of habit, I've had my locs since 2016. Never had problems with thinning, I had som skinny locs since I used sponge method to get em but I kongoed up the skinny ones 2-3 years ago. But that barber advice was really good, I always cut myself and get a line up and fade at the barber
I started my locs 7 months ago and my biggest mistake was putting in a braided style around month 4. It helped my hair go a lot faster but a 2-4 of them broke of in the middle because my locs weren't mature.
What you said at the end really hit home. Keep growing.
So nice to get a guy's perspective on this. I feel like a lot of the locd ladies on UA-cam always talk about the same three things and it's super obvious like "make sure you wash your hair and retwist." And they'll be like "here's my 1 year loc journey" and every image is right after a retwist, like sis wut? lol
12:35 wise words my G ..
Embrace (YOU)r Art
Keep it up. Your good at this even love when your daughter is in the background 😂
Darn you fine! LOL! Ok all jokes aside -- thank you so much for talking about mistakes. I made a few my first set of locs. I tended to think men rarely had lock problems as they usually that NOT been thru so much (perms etc) that we women have. Thank you for sharing your journey!
Great vid super helpful ill use this information when i finally get locks thanks
I’ll be hitting my 1y in November and I’m just so heartbroken. My locs have started thinning and breaking around my edges and I really just want to cut it off and start all over again but today I found your channel and I’m going to keep going and just focus on taking better care of my hair! This journey has been really humbling.
Hi! Might I suggest checking your internal body health to see if something off balance. Our hair can sometimes be an indicator of issues. If you leave your hair alone for a while like 2,3 months and just keep your scalp & locs clean, you can definitely nurse your hair back to health. Scalp health is key! That’s where the hair is growing from. Search Yannie the locologist on YT, she doesn’t call herself a loctition but she does a lot of work helping ppl with damaged locs
Frizz and root puff are driving me nuts right now. Started mine in May. Lot of unruly ones but a lot are also behaving. I’m really re learning my hair.
Great video bro, really insightful and particularly enjoyed mistake number 5. I’ve been getting discouraged with mine and I’m around 18 months in - trust the process I guess!
Watching this is a blessing 🙏🏾 Also, congrats on the new fam addition, blessings!
I’m glad you liked the video! And thanks for the congrats. It’s an exciting time for sure! 😁
That barber part got me man.. I realized some of my dreads were thinning cos of that. I cut my dreads tho might start a new one
Ive had dreads 4 different times since 2011 , and everything you said is 💯% true
Clear and honest info. I love it! Thank you!
Twice before I had thought about starting my locs but I never committed until 11 months ago. I did a lot of research and was fully informed and ready to embark on my journey. Since I began, I have encountered frizz a lot but not once have I felt any form of regrets and maybe that is due to the fact that I have no expectations. I embrace everyday of my journey so far and I look forward to new experiences.
My mistake is definitely putting too much oil on my scalp and locs itself. I went swimming one night and the chlorine brought out all the gunk on my scalp. I did an acv rinse the following day and the amount of build up had me running for the streets 😂. Now, I try to oil 2 times a month.
Thanks! I loved this video ♥️
Glad you liked the video! 🔥 thanks for sharing your mistake as well! Imma pay attention to my potential oil buildup!!
Best loc youtuber around!
I appreciate it family! All due respect To my OGs sebatreyu, Gunther, dynasty tv and several others! 🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥
I appreciate your video bro. I really trying to hang in there. It's been over a year since I started my loc journey.
You so right bro I’m just about to hit my 6 month and I’m loving the look and process so far
Hmm, dyed tips. Another name is "drip tips".
Had a couple of them problems so far... Now I found the rythm to maintain my growth balance... So far??
Started in December 2019.
can u like, upload a video
Thanks for the reply that let’s me know you pay attention to your fans. Maybe when she sees the great impact you have on others she will follow your lead🙂
It’s weird I never even call fans! Just fam! Lol I been in the comment sections of other videos right along side em! I just love this community!
Lol I’m ol school so I guess I gotta get brushed up on the new terminology FAM!
Love what you doing bro keep up the good work 💯
Man seeing this video was something like a sigh of relief that ive stuck with my locs the way i did. A year and a half in and they are not only forming better than expected but grown even faster. I just let it do what it wanted and retwisted like every 3-5 months or so. Looked crazy as hell sometimes but i just sprayed on my rosewater and kept it moving. Haven’t dyed it yet i think ill give it till the 2 year mark. Got a new subscriber here brotha! Keep up the great content! Stay loc’d & healthy bro!
Can you give me a mini lesson about rose water? 1st time hearing of it.
Derreille Newton well about 4 months into my journey last year i stumbled upon a few videos on people using rosewater as a natural moisturizer and hair growth stimulant. Natural products ive discovered work AMAZING for me where as other added stuff gives me scabbing and flakes. Look around a bit and see if what is said about it sounds like something you’re willing to try. My hair smells great also because of it.
Derreille Newton supposedly the nutrients in the roses act as a hair groth stimulate and moisturizer...think of your hair being the rose when it starts to bud and bloom...i has that kind of effect on my hair. My hair is as long if not longer than my sisters now and ive only been growing it for under 2 years. No bad experiences at all with it either and you can also make your own rose water! Id say if you’re curious give it a go! Very low risk of anything happening except great smelling hair, healthy scalp and hopefully accelerated growth.
love the honesty dude (signing in from Paris)
It’s always a pleasure to see folks from outside the US. Amazed this channel reaches across the world! 🙏🏾
I’m in that similar phase that you dyed your hair and everytime I think about dyeing it, I pinch myself and say remember TP.
I’ve made such terrible decisions 😂😂 Please don’t do it!! I’m just lucky I still have a pair of Locs I can be proud off! Lol
6 years with high top fade locs here. Def related to all of these 🤙🏾
Appreciation 💯... love the info bro 😎
Whooohoooo I’m in my 3yrs & 4months 😊🤞🏾
Me watching this at night after cutting my dreads the same day🤦♂️
Damn, I should have followed this channel two years ago. Great educational video.
Very great and informative video bro. I'm scheduled to get my locz retwisted this Saturday and it's been a month so far. I plan to get my locz retwisted every four to five weeks until they mature well. Btw, the background music is super dope❗💪🏿
Appreciate it fam! That time frame should work perfectly!
Could you do Freeform vs Maintained Dreadlocks? Appreciate it brother 💯
For sure!
Bruh I'm in a real problem rn my hair is a mess , half locks , half curly , some locks and thick and some aren't , it's just a mess but i don't wanna cut it tho .
No lie, I said this exact same thing about my locs! Stuck with it and now I love em! It just takes time! My locs look NOTHING like how they did in the beginning lol
@@TPlocks looks like I'm going through what u went through 😂 , ay thanks for replying tho , i appreciate it 🙏🏾 .
I'm really enjoying my journey. I'm about 9-10 months in and I just got some good hang time to where I can shake em while listening to music. Its a fun process
I can’t wait for this😭I’m 1 and half months in and seeing hella progress
Bro thank you , I can actually agree with most things you're saying coz I'm going through them right now, I just started my dreads recently and my my locs on the side of my head are thinner because of my barber and basically I can relate to what you're saying thanks for the tips bro 💯💯
