I felt that way when I wore my fro as a loose natural. I’ve been locked for 17 months now. I prefer big hair so still feel awkward, but I threw away all of my wigs during the first month. I may look better with a wig to some, but I definitely feel better locked than I ever did with fake hair. I don’t like shallow men, so it’s a good way to weed out the weak.
@@txLALA I know that’s right!!!! Locs/natural hair is beautiful. It is very awkward transitioning especially with the shrinkage. I felt like I looked better with wigs too but I didn’t care. The different stages of Locs definitely builds confidence. Thank you for watching 💞
Thank you. I just started mine last month and needed to hear this.
I'm really facing insecurities. My day 2 & i have short low density 3c hair. Trying to stay motivated. Thank you for sharing ❤
@@katiemarie2692 I’m sure you look beautiful! I felt the same way. It takes time & patience. Just try different styles, earrings or head wraps to make yourself feel more comfortable. Thanks for watching 💞
Just installed and soon to wash but I'm scared of my 4c shrinkage because I started with long hair
@@cynthiaholland13 yes it will shrink unfortunately but maybe you can stretch out your starter locs overnight using scrunchies. I’ve personally never tried it. But I have come across some videos on here of people doing it.
I was very insecure at first and had mixed feelings. I didn’t realize how much I depended on wigs and weaves. I’m 2.5 years in now with microlocs and it’s great and my authentic self!! Your hair is beautiful❤❤❤
@@Yahdoz23 yes me too. I think going through the phases of Locs is can be such a huge eye opener for many! Which I think we need sometimes. Thank you so much yours are too! 💞
Beautiful Locs ! Learning to embrace my journey and be patient. Thanks for this video . ❤ Where are your glasses from ? Love your frames
Thank you so much! Patience is the hardest part of this journey but you got this! It will be so worth it! & surprisingly I found these on a store front on EBay years ago I wish I could find the brand for you. If I do, I’ll be sure to reply to you again☺️
