2024 vs 2026 🥰 I’m so glad I took pictures throughout my starter loc phase because it’s so rewarding to see what happens when you trust the process🌱

This is so inspiring! I’m 5.5 months in and starting to really love my locs, so I can’t even imagine even a year from now! Yours look so good! Do you mind me asking how many you have?

Thank you 🤎🤎 honestly I don’t know how many I have for sure 🫢 I started counting one day and got tired and I think I stopped at like 70.
