    1. Dont get your hear retwisted too often (wait till like 6 or 7 weeks)
    2. Don’t avoid wrapping your hair up (wear bonnets or durags)
    3. Don’t play with your hair (stop twisting it)
    4. Don’t use wax for your dreadlocks (use light gel or oil instead)
    5. Don’t avoid washing your hair ( unless your in the beggining stage ‘you can wait for about 1 month to wash your hair’)

    i feel like as someone with starter locs, so many people feed us false info. everyone's hair is different and that factor needs to be taken into consideration. i've had so many people tell me things that clash so I just learned what works for me and that's what i go by.

    My loc’s were thinning out before I reached my 2yr journey. I realised that the whole time u gotta let your loc’s mature properly wit the new growth that’s underneath them. Since the summer I’ve just let them freeform and now I got the Afro under my loc’s and they’re now becoming more thick in general. Just a lil message to those who feel like they wanna cut their dreads due to the thinning. Trust the process. Your loc’s will be restored if u take time for them to mature. Avoid playing with them. That’s the mistake I made when I reached the 1st yr.

Will my locs possibly get thicker over time if i leave them alone and let them just freeform?

    The dreads in my pic are free formed 3 years no retwist. Literally every dread was congo and they were wicked up too. I recently cut them in March, let my hair grow, and got it twisted. Now I’m 4 months in with the traditional dreads and even though they’re not as cool as my freeforms, I actually am liking the retwist process so far. They dropping WAY faster than the freeforms and I can style them more fr.

    I'm almost 3 months in. I get my hair retwisted every 4 weeks, basically once a month. I'm thinking about stretching my retwist out because yeah the tension on my scalp 😣

    • @VinnyMatthews
      @VinnyMatthews  4 роки тому +53

      Yea I used to do it every 4. Now I do between 6-9 weeks. Saves money and my scalp

      Really depends on your hair and what it can take. I get mine retwisted every 30 days. But I get it retwisted AND braided every 2 months. 3 years in and I’m stretching with no thinning.

    I needed this, this is definitely gonna help once I start my dreadloc journey I didn't know about few of those things I was told wax was the absolute best at one point and I didn't know playing with them a twisting them will ruin it what about playing with the dreads by just running your fingers across ur dreads and making them look messy which I see a lot of people do but will that also ruin them or no? I have a huge problem with messing with my hair and especially once It's in dreads but if I can at least do that than I should be fine so again thank you this is a huge help before I start getting them done it helps in the long run yk
