2 months in!!

Day 1 to week 8!! Loving my journey! I did my first retwist week 5. 2nd retwist in a week or two! First wash was week 4 noticed budding that week. 2nd wash was week 7. Can’t wait to see the growth after I do my next retwist!

2025/2/4 Edited to

Embarking on a hair journey can be exciting, and the first two months are often filled with noticeable changes and challenges. During the initial weeks, you may notice significant characteristics such as budding, which is a natural part of the locking process. In week 4, having your first wash is crucial as it helps establish cleanliness while allowing your locs to settle in. Make sure to keep track of your hair's response to products and techniques. Retwisting is an essential practice; my first retwist at week 5 helped gather and refine the locs. It's recommended to listen to your hair and not over-retwist too soon, to promote healthy growth. As you move forward to week 7 or beyond, hydrate your locs and maintain a treating regimen. As a tip, using a light mist daily can aid in keeping your hair moisturized without weighing it down. Overall, respecting your hair's texture and needs during this journey is key to achieving healthy, beautiful locs!
