      Switched from Nipsey braids to 2-strand twists so I can access my scalp during intermediate washes. Better look & cleaner scalp. 1yr down #4c

    I just recently cut my locks off it was stressing me out cause I couldn’t maintain it as often as I wanted to I cut it off and had instant regret I’m currently growing my hair back out so I can start my lock journey again moral of the story don’t get discouraged locks are a imperfect but beautiful style those imperfections is what makes your locks unique and custom to you. It’s a natural look it’s gonna look rough at times but just stick with it and you’ll be more than satisfied in the long run.

    Maaan I've had these girls for about 12 years in January, sometimes i can barely remember but i always remember the first time i got them done. Back then though no one was on hair care but luckily i grew up in the shop so hair came natural to take care of. Beauty shop to be exact. Its for sure a journey, depending on hair type, head size, i was literally never able to make a bun for almost 7-8 years but if you see my bun its huge. Hair works in crazy ways and people will never have the same results so just love yourself and your hair. Its your own pattern own head they will look how they are suppose to turn out. My braids eat all my hair away and its back to my shoulders, when they drop its past my back so like i said its all a journey. Some people retain length some don't 🤷🏾‍♂️. Keep going!!! 💯💪🏾🤘🏾Yee

    07 months now. It has not been easy and I feel clueless because I moved to another country (Japan) right afterwards; and, finding products or even someone to do your hair - because I don't know how to do it myself - was a massive challenge.

    • @G415ive
      @G415ive Рік тому

      Just curious on what you were saying BUT i did see that they have a retwister out in Japan if you haven't found one. Look up Locticianista Tokyo, also if not her im sure you can look around and find some old school people that might know. Japan has some history with dreadlock as well. Granted these are the Samurai days I'm talking about BUUT its still worth a shot. Even though its not commonly practiced I think you can find someone that does tradition Japanese twists as well. 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
