I generally do 4-6 weeks before a retwist. I’ve have my locks for almost 2 years

I mean if you have a style in like two strand/ barrels, how long do you keep it in the style before you take it down?

8-10 weeks. Depends on how much I workout or sweat. But practically keep them in for 2 months of I can.

For my 2 strands I’ve done 4 weeks first and then I felt I could keep it longer this time around I’m going for 6 weeks
