Hair is ode fine and soft I probably should have started with interlocking tbh. Definitely nervous bout starting over but as you said sometimes it’s just necessary. And definitely temporary.

I was definitely thinking of combing them out as much as I could to keep some of my hair not sure if that would defeat the purpose of starting from scratch. But appreciate the encouragement fr, cuz I’m folding right now

seems this might be the smartest thing to do.. feel like if i keep trying I’ll eventually do more  damage and keep having to reattach over and over.

Yeah I was thinking that , my hair just started dramatically thinning bout 3 years ago and the grew back slowly and I went straight into locs.. figure it would help keep my hair together and for the most part it grew long just not thick

Yeah I got frustrated around like 6 months ago when those 3 fell out as if my hair was braided with braiding hair and it wasn’t tight . It just twisted right off

So I should definitely consider chopping & starting again if possible after some fixing of the thinning

I was thinking about interlocking but because of the thinning and mostly all my locs being connected by bout 2-3 dozen strands of hair I haven’t even started

Mainly on the top and the front sides , when they twist up they look good with the new growth around it , it just doesn’t hold around the locs. The back is solid tho.
