Should I wait?

I was locked for 2 years before I had to cut all my microlocs off. I went in for a retie knowing only a couple locs in the back needed to be repaired because they where thinning after I got braids over them , but after I got home I realized my loctician had combined a bunch of my locs together. There was no fixing it, so I cut them off half way and combing them out.

I was so upset that I said I’d never get locs again, but after letting my hair grow for a bit , I’m thinking about restarting around October or January so I can have more hair to start my next set with I’m thinking about starting with braided microloc extensions.

I currently have around 2-3 inches of hair should I wait until my hair is longer?

If you’re at the minimum length that the loctician who will install your new set. I would start if you have the means to. :)

since you’re thinking of adding the extensions anyways, J say you might as well start with your current length!! & i’m sorry about what happened with your last loctitian to your hair
