    I feel like not having to comb and detangle your hair makes up for having to constantly moisturize your hair. Can't wait to start my loc journey!

    Hey Queen...yes you are on point!..another PRO is that you can decorate or adorn your locs with jewelry, yarn,etc and that adds to the versatility as well..thanks & many blessings

    Going against society is actually a huge reason why I'm starting my locs. Hearing about Onision's video's actually made me want to get locs more lol

    Great points! I think a con for me is I put all that love, time, and effort into retwisting only for it to last 2 weeks😭!

    Love your videos. I'm 3 months into my journey I started with braids.... and I feel the same about how expressive they are in spirituality, individuality and creativity. I've begun coming out of my social awkward shell a bit because of them. They definitely bring the happy, positive vibed people around.

    I used to have locs, and almost ANY style seemed to hurt my head, ESPECIALLY my nape area. But, I WOULD get locs again I also loved the low maintenance of it.

    Locs are so cute on YOU. I had faux locs twice i look weird. Im the type of person who should never ever wear locs. I love them on other ppl. Have crushes on guys with locs. I loved my aunts locs. But i would never get them on myself.

  • @mishaytv
    @mishaytv 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Totally agree. I am beyond tender headed at this point and before locs it was no big deal at all. I'm almost an inch down just to start a basic plat lol.
