    I know a lot of people gave you a hard time for restarting, but looking at your parts I'm so happy you trusted your gut... That grid looks really amazing and I think you will be happy with it long term.

    I laughed because my back section was 84 each side also. I have 300. Going on 4 weeks. I have gone through loc videos like crazy. You are definitely a favorite to watch.

    Your grid is so neat. ❤️ I love it. 324 is a good number.

    I have 410 and thought they'd end up being too big. If you have 324 and they look THIS amazing (especially when you see how much they have grown now in recent videos) I'm confident I'm on the right bath. What I wanted was versatility being that locs are quite permanent overall. You have so many beautiful styles and looks that I know for a fact I'll be okay. I've been following you since you were a loose natural. Loved your microlocs but wasn't ready when you started lol now I am and wish I would've started sooner. I'm now only a few weeks loc'd and loving it. Looking forward to the journey ahead🥰

    I'm 2 weeks in and LOVING this 🔐 life!!!! Your videos are my FAVE! Your energy is so awesome. So glad you did it your way and got the look you wanted, no matter anyone else's opinion. I wanted like 600 and my loctician told me NO...and I'm glad she did! I love my 490!

      Do it! I stated mines just before I turned 50, I’d admired locs for years love the look micro small locs I like the slightly thicker look they give. I had 1st set 6 months then restarted making them smaller I now have 185ish locs they almost 16mths it’s not easy but you learn so much loccing your hair & I honestly wish I’d done them sooner. Good luck with your journey when you start ☺️🇬🇧

    After about 2 months, maybe a lil less or a lil more, I have decided to redo my starter locs. I started n then wanted to get it done professionally so I took them out. BIG MISTAKE, my time was waisted I didn't get it done, I came home and did more research n I found u, since then i've been coming back to your channels looking at your growth, your locs growth, went deep diving for all your locs content and I finally decided to do over, i starting on Friday, I finished yesterday and I counted then today. 295 locs. I can't wait for them to grow out n loc up. My main issue now is dry scalp, i'v almost done everything can do, i don't know what else to do. I was watching NAPSARETHENEWBLACK before I found your channel, beautiful young lady such peaceful soul, her locs was my goal locs, n then i found u n yours were my goal locs. I've come to understand that it doesn't matter what I do it's not going to look exactly like yours or hers, so I'm just gonna let my hair do it's thing. I trust it now to do what it wants. Both you and NATNB inspire me, your loc journeys are just...waw. Thank you for what both of you are doing to contributing to the locs community, It's really inspiring to young girls like myself. We appreciate both of you so much. I doubt you'll see this, but i'd just like to leave this here.

      Look up TheRealKylaB - she has thin hair (low density) but her hair has fluffed out nicely as they developed into locs. You can't compare yourself to someone with different hair type/density. There are other thin density ladies with locs you can follow and get better idea of how yours will flourish.
