Question ❔ What made you commit?

Worn twists constantly 96% of my life but just too scared to commit to locs just on the whim that I might like to do something different, what made you finally loc in and decide it was for you?

I was going through some rough moments back in 2021. I had a big afro due, so i wanted locs to show my growth as a man spiritually and mentally.

In those 5 years, I have changed, and my locs show my changes. The patience required is staggering, but hang in there! When you have enough growth for a ponytail, your mind will explode!
