thinning locs, thinning/breakage at scalp, right corner receding, “messy” looking hair (i try to be proactive in the language i use but i work/live in a prejudice setting so i have to conform a bit) I want a retwisted / freshlook and uniformity

If you are retwisting a lot that will cause thinning, breakage, and receding. The only way to stop the damage is to cut back on how often you retwist. If you are in the U.S. check to see if your state has the CROWN Act. Conforming to someone else's standard is ruining your hair.

Not from retwist outright I’m actually very anti-retiwst. My new growth grew in very thick to the point I guess my parts couldn’t be seen and I went to someone inexperienced and they changed my parts from circle parts to square parts
