      Cosmic Queen 😊lm glad my energy reached you! I combed out my first set and then started over like two years later. If i could do it again I would have started then over right after I combed them out. I ultimately did a big chop and rocked a twa until I was 9 months in then I started my coils. I will do a video one day so you can see, but regardless just start my love 😘 get it done how you want so it makes you happy.

    This is the most realistic loc journey on youtube--no talking and showed what was needed. Kudos to you. AND it appears we share the same hair type: 4C, which is rarely seen on youtube. I had locs for 20 years, shaved them and now I'm starting a new set. Q: do you get your hair done professionally every month or maintain it yourself? Your hair is beautiful. Congrats on the engagement, Do you have a new baby too?

    How did you get your thickness? How often did you retwist? Wash hair? Deep condition hair? What products use to moisturize scalp and hair?

      LIFE Hey 👋🏽 You get your thickness from the density of your hair and the size of your parts. With my first set of locs I had smaller sections (my hair is thin-ish) and I had over 100 so my locs were skinny.This time around I knew I wanted thick locs so I knew I needed less than 100 and larger parts. I retwisted about every month and a half. I condition with just coconut oil because I feel like conditioner would give me build up. And as far as my scalp I just use coconut oil as well. My routine is very basic. Remember less is more. I hope this answered your question 😊
