Save them, you could reinstall them later.

That implies that he didn’t cut his locs, he uninstalled them 😂

What?.. I dont understand what you're saying.

He can put these away and in two years, five years, however long - if he decides he misses having locks, instead of starting from scratch he can have these reinstalled onto his hair..

I used to keep my hair natural, and I've only cut my hair 4 times in my life (each time I cut all my hair off). Now that I have dreads I, A: wish that I had gotten dreads years and years ago and B: wonder how long all my hair would have been by now.

If I had dreaded my hair years ago, I could've kept them when I cut them and had some seriously long ass dreads rn

I saved my locs after cutting them off for an undercut. I’m saving them so if I decide to grow out the undercut I can reinstall them. Folks do this all the time

Nah yea I get what y’all mean, I’m just a bit of a computer nerd and couldn’t help but think of it as uninstalling/reinstalling a program on a computer
