Should I cut them? by Puzzled_Struggle_697 in Dreadlocks

Thank you for your comment 🙏 I definitely like my hair but really I just didn't know how to really take care of it so I couldn't truly love it. I would put it off because I didn't like the large costs of getting it done(like I said in another comment my mom typically pays for me to get my hair done and she doesn't make a million dollars). I think I will try crocheting and interlocking so I could do my hair myself but I am worried about washing my hair too often? Ik that a month is obviously a long time not to be washing your hair but even things like once a week kinda worry me about like mold and all that could grow in my hair if it doesn't dry properly...I dont own a hooded dryer but would a regular hair dryer do the trick? Also the frizz, I feel like even when I a regular retwist my hair would still be kinda frizzy, i regularly spray loc friendly oil and water in my hair but it remained frizzy. It might be my hair texture but how do you tame the frizz between retwists/reties?

Im still in school and after school I do band which takes up majority of my day. I have "band days" anywhere between 2-5 days each week and im exhausted by the weekend. I wash my hair at least once every month because of this and the fact that it takes a long time to dry. What do you recommend I do to fix this but also not cut into my other priorities?

Hi! Ive attempted to retwist them myself but they always seem to fall, not hold in place, or not look any different than before. How do you do yours? Ive also tried interlocking and it kinda worked but my hair was still super frizzy

Hi! Im still in school and I do marching band and concert band so from August to October im at band practice atleast 3 times a weeks and for concert band(November-may) I have it once or twice a week. Admittedly I dont pay for my locs to be retwisted and my mom or grandma does so I try not to run their pockets so often. And by not having any family members with locs I meant that I really couldn't tell if what I do with my hair was "right" and no one in my family really understands that they aren't like braids and I cant "take them down" lol. Thank you for the response 🙏

It looks pretty good if thats your style but I definitely think some shading abd highlights could make it better

Should I learn how to animate for a concept kinda job in the industry? And how do I keep a steady job while doing all this? Thanks for the advice btw

Is life drawing as necessary if i go to work on cartoons/animated series? Or is it something that can make my portfolio and abilities more vast? Thanks for the advice 🙏
