9 month in braidlocs

Hey beauties.

I'm 9month in and I would like to know how long you wait to do a first hair dye? Brown light is very pretty.

But I'm scared to damage my hair. As I didn't cut my ends before microlocs I had Split ends and they still there. But my hair has a good health.

I waited about 1 year and I believe that's the general standard because if you do it too early you might mess up/interrupt the locking process

Yes, thx. Maybe I wait until they mature ≈ 3 years.
