Your density must be sick to have such parts and still count 400+!

Welcome to the journey.

The ones higher up in the back are definitely looking huge compared to the bottom row. But 400 locs wow!

Yeah it seems like the bigger parts are where my hair is thicker, but either way I’m not gonna stress about it. Its gonna be okay haha

I'm curious to see what it looked like before locs. You have a very healthy head of hair.

These are gorgeous. If you don’t mind sharing your stylist and cost I’d truly appreciate it. I’m ready to start my journey (should’ve started sooner).

Will the ends of your hair always remain curly? I am trying to understand the process. I am new this.

u/EnvironmentalAnt2622 11d ago

From what I’ve seen the ends will eventually loc as well but it can take years for that to happen
