If your locs have been feeling dry, thinning, or just not thriving, it might be one of these:
1. Washing too little or too much
Too little = buildup.
Too much = dryness.
Your scalp wants balance, not extremes.
2. Using heavy products
If it leaves residue, it’s probably not helping.
Heavy creams and waxes can clog your locs and weigh them down.
3. Constantly touching, twisting, or retwisting
Your locs do not need to be handled every five minutes.
Too much manipulation can lead to thinning and breakage.
The truth?
Healthy locs are built with patience, not overdoing it. 🔥
