    I am 3 weeks locked. My 4 th time locked . It just kept unlocking. First time I locked I had traditional locks for years. It was by far the best hairstyle I had however it became heavy. I would say watch alot of utube videos and then follow your gut. I have learnt not to spritz at all it causes frizzing. I have been styling my hair cornrows. To keep my hands out. I dont wash often, once a month you can just cleanse your scalp every 2 weeks with ACV mixed with aloe vera gel. Yes hairbands caps even wig will help to cover the awkward stage. I dont like wigs it compromises my edges. But I like hairpieces. Buns . Your hair looks lovely. Congratulations for taking the plunge. I started my locks with 2 strand twists and I started it myself. Massaging your scalp will also help. I oil my scalp about once a week

    About washing your locs…I couldn’t go 4 weeks without washing my locs. My locs were too short to braid and band so I just banded them in sections to shampoo them. Do not apply too much oil to your scalp. This actually causes itching. My itchy scalp went away when I decided to apply a small amount of oil after washing and towel drying my locs only. My next best tip is to massage your scalp with the pads of your fingertips daily. This encourages hair growth. At 2.5 years my locs sit on my collarbones. When I established my locs they were the same length as yours. 😊

      Thanks so much for those tips. I’ve just been doing a light sprits on my scalp and I’ve had more slippage at the nape of my neck and a few other places and that’s without washing. I have been massaging daily but find I’m very itchy going into week 5 and six. So much to learn. I will give the banding a try. Thanks again. 😊

    Congratulations! I have had my microlocs for 2.5 years and I am still running my fingers through my locs because they feel so good …even tho they have become my new normal. If you’re interested I write a blog “Microlocs and Me: A Woman’s Journey to Hair Freedom”. I write about my locs and different topics pertaining to microlocs. Know that you made an excellent decision. Welcome to this brave new world!💕
