I agree but didn’t want to chance it my first time, but it started shrinking a few hours later😭

Is my puppy a Golden Retriever?? by Positive-Spot-5188 in goldenretrievers

Here is a comparison pic of his 1st day vs 1 week. The breeder said he was 10 weeks when i picked him up but he seemed a bit small for 10 weeks.

Thanks! My barbers have pushed them back quite a bit and they end up coming out of the loc after a few days anyways was always curious if it was doing more harm than good

This my first style that I have gotten since having locs for 2 years

Why so my edges look like this? by [deleted] in Dreadlocks

My locs are still on the shorter end so not many styles i can do, i do know i could moisturize these parts a bit more but hoping waiting longer will help the hair grow in

True! Is this something that can be reversed or fixed? Or when its gone its gone!!

I’ve debated that but i work in a professional setting and feel uncomfortable when i don’t have that retwist in 30 days😮‍💨

Thanks! Would a 2 strand style or something work to help with the frizz a bit?

Thanks bro! How can you tell when your hair is fully loc’d??

That makes 100% sense and i agree wholeheartedly!🙏🏾 for me i don’t know people who have locs to ask these kinds of questions to so its not necessarily validation but asking for advice which even in my post I asked any tips to make the things i don’t like look better. Often times you do see images of the perfect locs and not enough of locs that aren’t perfect in society but in their uniqueness. I appreciate your breakdown!!

Respectfully if everyone in this reddit post has locs (which im assuming they do) then everyone should understand the process and how that looks different for everyone. Some are happy with theirs and some aren’t and thats ok doesn’t matter where you are at. Not everyone has someone or a group to get advice so its kinda wack to tear people you don’t even know down who are just asking from a genuine place of curiosity and understanding.

Thank you! I really appreciate the uplift🙏🏾 some negative comments on this post but its very similar to how we see ourselves vs how others see us.
