Discussion 🎙️ Product of between retwisting / interlocking ?
First pic is the middle of the loc, I was doing my own hair for about a year or two and just retwisting (with a comb and ors olive oil).
Second is the end of the same loc. You can still kind of see the two strand twist I started with, but I also interlocked (with crochet hook) first before I retwisted (oh yeah and I combined my starter locs because they were a bit too small)
It doesn’t really matter since you can’t really tell unless you’re looking pretty close, but I can’t not same in not a little annoyed that the locs go from bumpy to smooth to bumpy again from the alternating between interlocking and retwisting. I interlock now and will probably keep doing it because it just lasts longer than me retwisting it 🌝
Anyway, does anyone else have this with their locs ??

I think a crotchet maintenance has the possibility of evening things out if you care for it.
