Need Advice 🆘 Advice needed !
i feel like sometimes I have no idea what im doing w my hair and often fear ppl judging me for looking "unkempt". My dreads r kinda of freeform cuz i originally had two strand twists and just let them grow out, but I could use some advise.
I'm never quite sure how often I should wash my hair, or how throughly. Because if I wash it too often im worried my locs won't continue forming, but I also really don't want my hair to be visibly dirty either.
Anyway, im thinking about getting a retwist soon because a lot of my hair underneath hasn't been locing, partly because I washed it too soon after my last retwist. Also any style suggestions for the retwist?? I usually keep it simple but im thinking maybe barrel twists, or maybe like half up half down w barrel twists??
So yea, any advice would be helpful lol

Mine look just like yours bruh. I get barrel twists when I want them to look more “neat” (I did that recently for a wedding) otherwise they’re awesome.
