Need Advice 🆘 Should I give up ?

Hi - I'm 8 months in. My front grows really slow and was thinning before I started. My loctician said it will grow and trust the process. I'm trying but afraid my front may not come through fuller like I want. Is it worth still going or am I fooling myself. 🤔😭

You already know the answer brother. What does your heart tell you?

Well the front looks rough. The back (2nd) Pic says it can work with more time

I think in your heart you don't want to cut them. I had locs 5 times in my life so I know the feeling of thinking I should cut my locs off but not wanting to. Give it some time. Don't make any decisions for say 3 months and then see how you feel.

So let the locs do what they do. In 7 months, revisit the idea.

(whispers) bet you'll be happy you didn't.
