    I was locked about 5 years ago for around 15 years. I never lost a loc during the entire time I used to sew my thinning locs with regular black thread and a sewing needle. I thought I was weird for doing that it’s good to see it’s an actual thing. I just re-started a new lock journey four months ago and am just researching to brush up on the maintenance routine. Your locs look great, can’t wait to get to that stage. 😊

    I like the idea of incorporating 2stran twist. You palmrolled them to makem blend in and while the size compared to the other locs are the same, that twisty texture of the 2stran subtly stands out
    I actually like that a lot. I think it gives your set of locs more personality
    I honestly wanna say… those who will notice the subtle 2stran in your set are those who are really paying attention to you 🤔, may even be a parallel to one noticing part of your actual personality

    I have my locs for 8 years, they been to thiny i combined and cut on my shoulders, now Im regrowing untill I cut them again -. Natually - without a crochet hook - We dont need them, locking and combining are two journeys inside the same and using anything between it is cheating n not natural imo.
