LOC’D journey
I started my locs in January 2021, I am 3 years loc’d and loving it. My tips if you want thicker locs would be not to get re-twist too often, every 2 to 3 months. Wear a satin lined bonnet every night to bed to prevent fizz or something like that lol. Wet hair every two days and moisturize with oil
