    I noticed my scalp is more sensitive too after getting my microlocs 😩 but wanting something different has led me here. Your braids turned out great!

    I noticed that when my locs were small my scalp would be really sensitive. But now that they are grown out it does not hurt as bad. Also, I wait at least a week before I put my hair in braids. When my hair is not tight it really hurts; but, when they are freshly tightened they hurt even worse. So just remember to wait.

    I just wanted to say that since shaving my hair any added style other than my natural fro aches. I believe it's because we go so long after not pulling on it that it gets used to being in its natural state. I can't have too many braids and all must be knotless.
    Btw I was super excited to see this, so creative and beautiful too bad for your scalp though! Nothing beats feeling the water through that head. God Bless Lovely Ladies

      I can understand and agree with you on the sensitivity of our natural hair/ scalp! I really loved the braids and dislike having to take them down so quickly…. Thank you for your honest review.,,

    Yes, my scalp is very tender since having microlocs. I can barely stand a loose bun for more than a couple hours. Baby girl did do an awesome job, though.

    You can do cornrow braids then crochet in pixi locs. They will match your actual locs and parting grid

    It's best to continue your NATURAL; However it wouldn't hurt in considering (Palm rolling) 2-3 loc's together over your entire CROWN, with less frequent scalp activity.
    Giving your Crown IT'S Needed; Natural Loc's an opportunity to set, in 1-3 months whichever comes first, you occasionally give your scalp (massages only) with Jamaican black castor oil, hibiscus flowers or your choice of curly moisturizing cream!
    LEAVE IT BE TO {LOC in its NATURAL CURL} MAT!
    After it's locked; here is where you begin your grooming, most likely you will appreciate better, so will your scalp, No 300+ Sisterloc's just Natural gorgeous small Loc's...
