Hair Changes

I finally found someone to help me with my hair. I am still going to be a DIY’er but I have chosen to have a certified consultant troubleshoot some of the problem areas for me. For example I have a more than a few locks that have either broken off at the root or are hanging on by a thin piece of hair. For those that are barely hanging on I may decide to cut them off and start a new lock, cuz it I try to tighten it will surely break off at the root. Again I am not sure how so many locks thinned out, they were doing just fine then BAM! I am tempted to blame my former consultant but honestly I just do not know if that is true. Some have said I retighten the lock too much, but that is simply not true, when I started DIYing I found some locks were very thin at the root to begin with. Those thin locks that I did retighten broke off the next time I tried to retighten them again. Part of me is pissed off… but another part says hey it’s just hair.. chill out! I am learning how my hair grows, what it can tolerate and what makes it angry. I am having some trouble getting all the loose hairs around my front lining to go into the lock. My new consultant will be helping with that as well as fixing some holes in my locks. I have been going through the same hole while doing reti’s and this has caused some problems…nothing that can not be fixed. I just found out that it is not as simple as doing the 4 point rotation; you can not do horizontal latching one after another. For example if I do a latch going south, the next latch can not be going north. You must go north, east, south west… in other words….horizontal, vertical, and horizontal, vertical. This will prevent holes in the lock. All the tutorials on YouTube forgot to mention that important detail! But as Mc Hammer would say…It’s All Good. What I know for certain is whatever happens I am not putting the creamy crack back in my head.
