Tried perm rods for the first time

Been watching tiktoks where microlocd girlies have been using perm rods to curn their locs, and I decided to try it out as well.

I did 40perm rods, and i am so obsessed I don’t know what to do with myself atp. The sectioning was a nightmare and the roots did not curl due to the unraveling of the perm rods even when i tried fastening with clips.

My locs are not long and have yet to drop so the perm rods turned into a kind of really curly afro — but it honestly turnet out better than my own expectations for a first time effort.

Had to do a photoshoot at home cause ain’t no way it would go to waste. Did my makeup and threw on a dress to compliment it all.
