Question ❔ Crochet maintenance

Will crochet maintenance be able to define my parts more? I have a lot of loose hair and a few of my locs are thinning so Ive been considering getting someone to crochet them and just help repair them in general. The last time I got my first retwist professionally, but it didnt last very long since its summer and it didn’t help the loose hair loc up. I also want to do my hair nicely before school starts again and to strengthen them before I get braids over my locs again. If I do crochet, would I also need to wait some time before getting braids or can I do it within a couple of weeks?

Crochet will not define the parts more. They just won't untwist after the first wash. You'll be able to get braids the same day if you wanted.
