#1 Locs do not respect perfection. Once you innerstand this, you will grow to love them even more as they are ❤

[@astoldbymeso]

I'm definitely working on my mindset this time around. Thanks for sharing this!

[@promostk]

Love your locs. Both sets

[@astoldbymeso]

Thank you! ♥️

[@flawlessfaceskincare6939]

I love your willingness to share. Your locs look great. Keep embracing the journey. ❤ I'm 2 months into microlocs and these babies change daily.

[@astoldbymeso]

Thank you!

Was just looking at
your last set and there’s a big difference. I recently combed out a set I had started last year that started off as microlocs then combined at 6 months… I liked them but wasn’t able to style them at the size they swole to be so I restarted and am just chilling out with this new set. 11.22.23 …6 months from now I’ll have to remind myself why I don’t need to combine again 😂🤞🏾

[@astoldbymeso]

You know what's crazy is I've combined most of my locs in this new set. I'll have to talk about it in an update video. The retie appts have been taking way too long and I just can't. Really hoping I don't regret it

[@tracisspace]

As long as they’re still smaller than the last set you’ll probably still be able to have the look you’re going for

[@astoldbymeso]

So far, they're still small, the real test is how much more they'll swell a year from now.

[@eviefabulous4428]

Keep that bag of hair. You can use it to repair your locs in the future, suppose you get any thinning ones

[@astoldbymeso]

This is a great idea! But I might feel a little weird using it though because the hair's technically decomposing in a bag

[@eviefabulous4428]

Fair enough. Didn't think about the preservation of the hair 😅

[@astoldbymeso]

​@@eviefabulous4428No I get it! I thought about it then ran to google to ask 😂

[@Gizelle-cs6ix]

Do you know how many locs you have this time vs last time?

[@astoldbymeso]

I honestly have no idea. But I'll count these new ones at some point soon.
