    Same exact thing happened to me, my dread broke off because it was so thin at a point, I had to combine it with another dreadlock, basically wicked them together with the crochet . I will post a video of it if anybody is interested

    That makes no sense because if that’s the case won’t sister locs fall out? NO!! it matters about the integrity, take care of your hair

      I think something to consider for sister locs vs his would be the weight right? Speaking from experience some of mine are pretty heavy and firm I’m not sure bout sister locs tho so idrk

      Idk t Byrd I have smaller locs and they root is significantly skinnier than the shaft and they don’t fall out or thin I think it really is about how you take care of them mostly

      Actually that's a very common problem with people with sister locs... The more skinny the more care you need to be careful with them

    I’m with you 😂once my locs get to your length I’m essentially keeping that length might trim em every year after that. The down ur back locs I never really liked as much…plus u lose a plethora of hairstyles 😭 the pineapple, the half up half down, ponytails, side pony’s all look silly with long hair

    I’m totally interested in getting mentored! I haven’t made any videos yet but I’m genuinely interested in starting! I’ve wanted locs since I was in 8th grade. I’m a senior in college now and I just started my first set of locs all on my own, I was only able to do it cause of years of watching your channel!

    I have skinny locs myself. With having straight hairs I don't have a lot of them but I have 63 locs on a full head, while average is 35-40 locs on people my area. Skinny locs let us have more locs compared to normal section locs which basically give more of a fullar head feeling rather than a countable amount of locs and it gives more versatility as well.

      I do maintenance once every 15-20 days via a crochet hook (on the length only and not on root) as my locs are quite new and frizz a LOT.....but a friend of mine also has locs like mine and he tells me that a gap of month and half is good (we both do 4-step interlocking for root maintenance)
