YEP I DID IT !! Locs/dreadloc appreciation THREAD!!!

[jetlifebih]

What's the absolute longest y'all have been without a wash and retwist

 

[blacktux]

Longest without a wash is like 2 weeks, if i didnt have flakes id probably go longer.

Longest without a retwist is 2 months. I like the rugged look it gives. But after a while my woman is basically asking me every day when can she twist my hair; i know shes not feeling it LOL.

 

[all original]

Longest I have went without a wash is a month and three months for a retwist

 

[Igot5onit]

Longest without a retwist is 6 weeks. I'm getting one today then giving my hair a break for a couple of months fuck it. I just found out at 16 months loced even that is a lil too soon a cycle.

 

[jetlifebih]

This my second twists, first since the first time I got me twisted in april

I like to let my shit get real comfortable lol before I get em done again to get all the new growth

Just started towel rubbing

Moms going ask when I'm cutting my hair.....bitch never

 

[VanguardBLK]

When I first started they wouldn't lock, however, when I stopped playing ball and going to the gym for several months due to injury they started to lock, now everything Gucci.

My advice, if you're having trouble getting them to lock, try and keep them as dry as possible for as long as possible between retwists. This includes activities that cause you to sweat.

Only problem is now people asking if my dreads is real smh that shit pisses me off. Thanks a lot Fetty Wap

I've been thinking about doing that. I want mine thicker. I heard it takes a while until the combine though.

So I've been locking my hair now for about 3 months. My hair is soft and wavy so it's having a little harder time locking in the front. It's cool to watch your hair go through the transitions of locking, but it takes time, patience and dedication. My hair is growing like a weed though. I consider myself going through "the ugly phase" (a few locks are sticking up and/or half locked. )but I've learned that scarves and hair bands are my friends right now. LOL. Happ locking everyone.
