      Good luck friend! Lots of comments from people saying oil helped them - maybe give that a try before trying a new conditioner? Hope it goes well 🩷

    Flax seed gel and a metal rattail comb worked wonders for combing out my hubby's locs

    I combed out my micro locs over the course of 3weeks. Currently pregnant so it took longer but a spay bottle filled with water & glycerin mix, Aussie moist conditioner, oil, a fine tooth rat tail & braiding comb and a plastic crochet needle are what I used

      omg jealous! what’s your hair type?

    • @NatrualCoils
      @NatrualCoils 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@FRmeech it’s 4c low porosity in the front and middle while the back is a looser pattern and more of a medium-ish porosity. I really just deal with my hair depending on the problem I have and what it feels like it needs then I do research on how to address that and either diy products or go buy good quality ones that work.

    I just finished mine last week and I agree with the title. I will never put myself through that again. I had more than a 100 and they were mid chest length

      That's why when I get mine in like 30 years, I will get medium to chunky ones, I don't got time for mini or micro locs 💀

    You can compost your hair, If you have a garden. Or bury it under a tree somewhere in nature, speak to it and thank it for having been a part of your life.

    You really tried doing this all by yourself. If I may ask what type of loc do you have? (Is it palm rolling or interlock )

    • @FRmeech
      @FRmeech  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      my partner helped but only with 2 😭
      my locs were palm rolled for the entire 5.5 years.

    I never see anyone using oil and a detangler. I feel like I'd try those if I ever lost my mind and combed out my locs.
