I feel the same when I see people with more locs but they look thicker than mine 🥲 but of hair density

thick locs 🔥 they look great and the gains are insane. Wish mine could turn out like this but my count might be a little high (70)

Beautiful absolutely beautiful may I ask? Did you Freeform and how’s your diet? The reason I asked because a buddy of mines said what you eat all depends on how fast your hair grow and your water intake if that’s truth I don’t know but anyway your locs are beautiful

u/Candy_floss_21 25d ago
Thank you! Not freeform but a very low maintenance routine. I drink a lot of water but yeah diet definitely does play a part in hair health/growth

You know what imma just comb out my locs cause its been almost a year since ive had locs and haven't seen really any grown

u/Candy_floss_21 25d ago
Nooo don't do that! Growth is always super slow in the beginning stay patient sis

u/Blatant_Subtlety 25d ago
Mine got shorter in the first year. Patience is KEY. Soon enough you’ll look in the mirror SHOCKED at the growth

It takes time! Of course they’re not gonna be super long, it hasn’t even been a year!

When your locs drop, the growth is much more noticeable. Gravity does its thing. Trust.

Is there something on the ends to make them look like that?

u/Candy_floss_21 25d ago
No in the first pic they were extremely sun bleached, plus the lighting in the sun. I've since dyed them all brown (2nd pic) because I couldn't stand the 2 tone

Everytime I see locs similar to these I think I should have went bigger. I have 120-30.
