    I think locs that are not retwisted look so much fuller and prettier.

    I have thin locs I love them but sometimes I would feel like they are a bit weird ..but now I don't think I will ever feel like that coz you motivating us people with dreadlocks makes me realize that I am perfect the way I am n the way my locs look like ❤😊...thank you so much , you just changed something in me ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️I love you sis✨️👑

    I am SO happy to have found youtube videos on the benefits of not retwisting. I was starting to become discouraged with all the retwist videos. I want a low-maintenance routine that promotes healthy locs. Your locs are gorgeous! Thanks for the info!

      What an insightful video! I am 8 months in but I’m over it too. You have motivated me to semi free form for a while. I’ve always been a rebel naturally which is why locs we’re definitely a great decision for me. Thank you!

    I have locs but I plan on re-twisting every 2-3. Months at a time so I won’t be re-twisting every single month

  • @terrancewalls2027
    @terrancewalls2027 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love the energy and knowledge I go 3 to 5 months without a retwist I just keep my scalp clean and doing nothing to them to open up with time and growth

    I was the same, I’d braid my hair and leave it in for 6/7 months. Wished I had locs and I finally started 3 weeks ago and I’m free!

    • @nnenne1
      @nnenne1 ปีที่แล้ว

    Omg girl your beautiful with those thick locks I really love that look. Semi free form is the way to go but separating them is key that way they turn into one big Congo locks. But I want to semi free my next set of locks girl it’s the way to go. :)

    GREAT INFO!! I ONLY RETWIST EVERY 2 TO 3 MONTHS, AND ONLY USE IT FOR SPECIAL OCASSIONS ONLY!! BUT TO EACH IS OWN, GREAT GREAT IDEAS!! 😃 I BELIEVE AFTER MATURITY, YOUR LOCS NATURALLY TWIST ITSELF, BY DAY TO DAY LIFE.

    Hey, What If You Decide To Just Interlock And No Retwist, How Do You Think The Locks May Turn Out ?? Do You Think It's Still Gonna Be Abit Thick ???

    you are inspiring 🥰 I have locs and want to make them thicker. you are right when they are maintained and your roots grow out....i say my hair is a fro with locs on the end because they are thinner than I would like, with all the new growth. i love my new grow, just wish my locs were thicker.
    i may start a whole new set.🤷‍♀️

    Can you still retwist your locs later?

    • @ownyourafrica2722
      @ownyourafrica2722 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You can retwist as long as you keep separating your locs after washing. Many people with thick locks retwist once a year.
