Nov 2 2010 - 'BC' and locs installed |
And, now...
That's right! When will they be firm? True, everyone says they are growing and looking lovely. Thanks, guys and gals! But the fuzziness, the puffiness, the occasional dryness and lack of shine. These things are really on my mind, more like my nerves. Recently, I have been wondering if I should have started my locs using the comb coils method. Not with two-strand twists.
The road to beautiful, healthy locs takes patience. I remind myself.
Then, another issue for me is finding the right shampoo and conditioner to use. And, if that was not enough...the infamous question: How often should I let my locs go without a wash? A re-loc? 4 weeks? 7? 8?
