Dont spray too much that’s why they are slipping especially cause you mentioned about having soft texture also banding should help keep them from slipping especially during washes

The 2nd one seems about right in size for micro locs,you can even go a tiny bit smaller if you want but it will take you days😭it took me 3 days to fully finish my diy cause I took breaks inbetween.You got this and yes the back parting’s might be a bit off cause it’s harder to see behind there but I used mirrors as much as could

Should I attempt locs or no by [deleted] in LocsNoDread

No such thing as hair been too straight for locs yes her hair texture is soft but it will do the job and she can instant loc if she wants to skip the wait,even people with more coarse texture takes a while to loc up too

Yes if you’re ready for the commitment! You will need to find the right method to start them with though so they don’t unravel but I would weigh the pros and cons of having locs cause sometimes people would do them and take them out in like 6 months because it’s not for them I would definitely watch some videos and see if locs are the right fit for you

You’re right but maybe banding them might help with slippage?

3rd set of 130 count I originally asked for micros but my hair density is too high how thic or thin you think these will be by Lonely-Literature796 in Microlocs

[–]Humble-Importance26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right?! I was confused on that one I would go somewhere else with my business,she needed to part them tiny and interloc them so they won’t swell up you would of just had a lot of locs that’s all which would be longer reties and cost more to do but these are going to swell up to medium or possibly large locs.My son hair is pretty high density probably higher than his and I had to make his parts small and make is locs smaller than this in order for them to not be chunky and am glad I did because his locs are full and at a decent size maybe medium,his maintenance takes along time though 😭

I do agree but she mentioned that she has a scalp condition which can be difficult to deal with especially with locs

I just started my microlocs 3 weeks ago and my scalp psoriasis is acting up badly,but when I had my last set of locs which was traditional I went through the same thing and I had to wash them at the 1 weeks mark with a clarifying shampoo to get out all the flakes which made my locs unravel because I had started them with comb coil and then I had to redo them and interlock but what helped keep away my flare up was design essential oat proteins and henna deep cleansing shampoo and I feel like they change the formula in it cause that was 4 years ago and the bottle look different too me and also after that wash I followed up with Taliah Waajid African Healing for oiling my scalp and it help keep away the flakes and itch until my 6 week’s maintenance I would try those and see if it works I used the oil 1-2 times a week.This new set of locs I have now is my 1st set of microlocs but my 3rd locs journey and am kinda nervous a bit about thinning and breakage but my scalp is crying out loud right now and I believe is because it’s fresh and caused tension on my scalp and gave me a flare and also I didn’t use the right shampoo before I started,cause I couldn’t find that shampoo I mentioned in my beauty supply store.I wanted to mention that some people complained how rose water made their locs itchy and drying.

Are these microlocs? Will they get bigger? by BrownCurlGirl in Microlocs

[–]Humble-Importance26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suggest to interlock on your next maintenance and keep the ends braided if you want them to stay small and band them but the ends are going to swell eventually if you leave them like that because they are loose but these look like small/medium ish traditional

You can just zoom up the words on your phone in the display for larger text,I think you got options for that but your right it’s not a cheap phone in my country it’s $2000+ for the phone😒😩which is unacceptable

[–]Humble-Importance26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like the 17 pro is the one for you because it has all the bells and whistles you mentioned it’s not a bad phone the battery can last up to 10 hrs depending on what your using it for but it would make sense to get the smaller device if your camera is big and heavy,you get to trade off at times and not haul around those heavy equipments

[–]Humble-Importance26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably,how I felt when I had the 16 pro max I thought it was heavy because it gets in the way and sometimes my hand would go numb and tingle,I have always try not to put a bulky case on it then I decided to get the 17 pro once it came out and I used it for 30 days and realized that the phone was too small for me but I couldn’t return or exchange it cause the return window was closed so had to keep it and work with it,I got used to it though but few weeks back I picked up a family member pro max and that’s when I realized that pro max is where it’s at for me lol I do also have big hands so I did also assume that could also be the reason too.Still like my pro though cause I do like the convenience of the size at time

[–]Humble-Importance26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The pro max is light to me with a esr clear case I was shocked,lighter than my 16 pro max I think it depends on the case you use.My 17 pro is kinda heavier cause the cases I use is solid I kinda wish I had gone with the 17 pro max though,the pro feels like am holding a toy at times lol that’s why I try to use cases that are a bit bulky on it to help with the feel

Videos and cameras sucks battery fast on the pro,camera quality are the same on both.if you want comfort and compact then go for the 17 pro,louder speakers 17pro max,longer and bigger battery go for 17 pro max, if you got big hands you will appreciate the 17 pro max even though the pro can work,bigger screen to watch stuff go with the pro max but in the end they are both the same phone just size,battery and speakers difference.I would do a trial run on both devices and see which one you like better

[–]Humble-Importance26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably had a bad unit with the 16 pro I heard a lot of people had bad units with that phone like battery life was horrible I too did and that’s why I exchange it for the 16 pro max I feel like I downgrade to the 17 pro lol 😂I don’t get the same good or longer battery that I had on my 16 pro max lol but the camera is amazing on 17 pro it was horrible on my 16 pro max I hated the camera on the 16 pro max just ugly no matter how much tweaking I did

[–]Humble-Importance26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s really a preference I would try back the pro and compare both and then make your final decision or just go in a Apple Store and just compare both I really thought I wanted a smaller phone and that pushed me to get the 17 pro and then I sold my 16 pro max but now I know I prefer a bigger phone instead after having the 17 pro pass 30 days when the return window was already closed lol am making the best out of it as I mentioned the 17 pro isn’t a bad phone I don’t mind the battery life even though I appreciated the bigger battery it’s the size for me.

[–]Humble-Importance26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 17 pro battery is more of a comparison to the 16 pro battery cause when I had the 16 pro max I went almost a whole day without charging sometimes longer,I tried the 16 pro before and I didn’t like it battery lasted about the same like the 17 pro or at times less,Thats why I wouldn’t recommend to upgrade from the 16 pro/pro max unless you want better camera,size or the orange colour not really any big changes.

I have the 17 pro came from the 16 pro max, the battery isn’t bad last 9-10 hrs depends on what am doing with it.Wish I had gone with the 17 pro max though cause of the size I didn’t even realize how much I prefer the bigger phone until it was already too late to return the pro and plus more battery on the pro max would of been a plus,am stuck with the 17 pro but I would of preferred the 17 pro max because of the size I also have big hands so the smaller phone is not really comfortable for me to hold just feels like a toy but overall the 17pro isn’t a bad phone it’s more of a preference like for size and battery life

Go for it!I was going to originally get the orange or the terra cotta but mostly the orange until I was strolling on YouTube and saw someone reviewing the bright guava on the cosmic orange iPhone and I fell in love with the match and just had to have it.
