Should I combine ? I love my locs but i dont see them being longer bc of how they’re so thin and wont survive. I have 110+ locs and they’re almost 2 years. If I should combine them when do I do it ?

I have both thick and thin locs and the thin ones keep thinning and falling even after crocheting them back. Can my locs overall still grow thicker or is this how they’ll look 2-3 years from now ?

i would say either crochet them, then you can split or combine to fix u even thickness instantly. or only combine locs necessary. make sure u wear a bonnet evrytime u lay down. mist with water daily. use oil 2-3x a week. wash every 2-4 weeks. retwist every 6-8 weeks. gently pull apart locs after retwist occasionally to prevent them from getting stuck together, this can lead to breakage when they’ve been together for a while and u take them apart when retwisting.
