    Wow!!! Your locs are beautiful (as are you). I spent years with manicured locs. What a waste of time and money. I started free-forming about 6 years ago and never looked back. Water and time is all you need. No twisting or manipulation. My hair has never been healthier (or looked better). There’s nothing sexier than a sister rocking her natural hair!!!!

    hey im so inspired by your loc journey!! I’m almost 9 months myself. Do your locs every feel dry since you only use water? Also what hair texture did you have b4 locing??

    • @JA.KARI.A
      @JA.KARI.A  Рік тому +5

      Thank you! No, my hair doesn't feel dry. I don't use a shampoo that completely strips my hair if its natural oils. And since I don't use any heavy products, my hair strands can properly and naturally absorb moisture. Then my natural oils seal the moisture.
      I don't know what you mean by "what texture did I have before locing"
      but I have type 4b curls.

But now I can mist it (sometimes strictly water or water and rosewater) and go. My scalp would sometimes feels dry but now I can use water only and be fine without added oils and such. It’s really refreshing, honestly

      Be careful about getting big parts bc like Jakaria said “everyone’s hair is different”. Ex : If your hair density is low/thin, I don’t think it’s possible to achieve this type of thickness.
