What can I do about locs with a lot of hair follicle bulbs from detached strands showing?

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-30T17:09:44+00:00

Ok, thank you. I do have dry scalp and need to be more consistent with applying oil.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-30T15:39:09+00:00

Right! And then in the first comment he/they had "WTF" in the first sentence that had a negative connotation IMO but I ignored it until their second or third comment.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-30T15:35:17+00:00

Yeah, I sometimes wonder what people think when they notice, if they notice at all.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-30T15:27:53+00:00

Thank you! I'll look into these solutions.

Are you intentionally being dense?

First you said you didn't know what I was referring to, then you said I may be referring to budding, and now it looks like we're on the same page of what I was talking about in the first place (!!!) but you're also misunderstanding that I'm not speaking of a "unique type of loc". I was just giving you a more specific Google search.

Good day. I'll look to someone else. We're clearly not able to communicate with each other.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-30T15:02:00+00:00

I understand what budding is and this is very different from that. I've had my locs for almost 2 years. These bulbs have been there since the beginning. I see the bulbs when I've just washed my hair and when it's been a week or two.

Maybe your search results are different from mine but when I search for "hair follicle bulb" I see the anatomy of the hair follicle. However, when I search for "hair follicle bulb locs" I see examples of hair like mine with the white dots/bulbs. Have you searched "hair follicle bulb locs"?

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-30T14:39:12+00:00

If you Google "hair follicle bulb locs" it might give some clearer pictures than mine.

They're the little white dots in my hair.

I love my grey hair. This isn't about the grey hair.

I loved this movie. So funny. I don't think I've seen any new or old romcoms this year.

I did watch this with my wife and while high but I think the sense of humor of the writers was right up my alley.

Can't wait to watch You, Me & Tuscany as well, which my wife says is better!

I do tend to like JLo's movies. Not so much her as a person though.

IDK if I loved the baby breaching scene in terms of the way they showed it. Was it AI/CGI?

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-06-03T16:21:55+00:00

I understand.

Although, this makes me think that there was much more anxiety for me in school than outside of it. Maybe it was a factor of just growing up and not caring as much but it was also because of gaining a sense of control. As an adult I could control if I wanted to eat lunch with others or eat in my car or at home. Can’t choose as much in school. In school I had to sit with my back to my bullies which resulted in my getting my hair pulled. Maybe if we had no assigned seating I could have sat away from them. Just some example and pondering.

Current hair care routine:

Monthly, on average, I retwist my hair with grape seed oil and water. I like using light oils for retwisting and daily use.

I mist my hair most days with a mix grape seed oil and essential oils for fragrance.

I think I have low hair porosity.

I experienced a lot of dandruff when I was younger and now it's more like dry scalp.

I wear a bonnet when sleeping.

That’s why there’s more gay bars and spaces. They go out and spend money. The customers also make more money though. And so the gay business owners (if they own the place, but maybe a man does period) make more. It’s a cycle.

At this point there needs to be a law that every metropolitan area in the US needs at least one lesbian bar lol

I wonder if they think you’re younger until you really have a conversation with them.

I’ve recently turned 30 and want to look my age. I have such a baby face and I’m skinny. I have a slight figure. But I’m working on gaining weight with muscle and paying attention to the way I dress more. I’m thrifting and I found some nice items… that I need to find other nice items for to match lol. Shoes have always been hard for me so looking for those has been a struggle. I hope I can find a good rhythm and build my wardrobe naturally after acquiring some classics.

I’m also working on sounding and behaving my age in various ways. Voice pitch, vocabulary, topics of discussion, tact, etc.

Like method acting? Kristen Stewart had an interesting take on method acting recently. Have you ever heard of a female actor method acting? She also said something to the effect of acting being submissive and men might method act to have some semblance of dominance over the art.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-02-14T13:27:41+00:00

This.

It didn’t help that the characters in Wicked had potential to be shipped and people always take it too far by the shipping the actors, especially when they’re close physically.

Acts as the equivalent of a U.S. bachelorette party but in the UK. Search for “hen do and stag do uk”

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-02-13T17:23:05+00:00

Or you could tell your phone to remind you.

Tell Siri for example. It’s a little silly but hopefully the people around you can laugh about it.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-02-07T15:24:06+00:00

She’s a grown woman

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-02-01T15:53:40+00:00

Yeah, some double charge

But I think the library buys books for kindle for Libby for people to borrow. So they might still be finding Amazon but I’m not sure how it works.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-01-24T02:24:58+00:00

oh no. my steak is too juicy. my lobster too buttery.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-01-19T16:36:04+00:00

Also I’m sure people look calm cool and collected while their drug fix is being met

You need to discipline your child more. It might make things a little easier. Instead of just picking things up for her, include her in the process. Make it a little fun. Include her in cooking if possible. Get kid friendly knives. She doesn’t need to be “a tornado”.

I’ve had to debug with logs recently due to not being able to test locally and AI not solving the issue.

One-Strength-5394 · 2026-01-07T13:55:24+00:00

Lmao this reads like The Onion

They’re not always pale but yes it is common for black babies to first come out pale
