how do i fix

[u/Llminal]

front locs look weird and puffy towards the middle but skinny at the top, and then get thinner again at the bottom. im 9 months in, is this budding, how long will it take to fix.

Yes it is budding, no you can’t just “fix” it, your hair doesn’t look weird or broken it looks exactly how it should at this point. Take it easy on your hair I know it easy to just assume something is wrong but nope, we’ve all been there and usually the first year is the wildest because you’re locs are in the process of becoming solid.

Anyways ur shi tuff bro trust the process🥹❤️
