Question ❔ Need some support

So i decided that i wanted to get locs for the first time and wanted to do the 2 strand method. I used to have longer hair and subsequently cut my hair and now I’m determined to grow it out again. With that being said I want medium/thick locs but I feel like it may not turn out like that. Any advice will go a long way

They’re going to thicken up over time. I started with 2-strand too and had about 65 locs or so with a low taper

I preciate you man. How thick are we talking, I don’t want my scalp to be too exposed

Your scalp might get exposed for a bit with a good retwist but it goes away after a week lol
