I got my locs started by a "loctician" 5 days ago. I am on day 6 and have tried to attach pics but to no avail. The picture to the left is the most recent picture from yesterday. Anyway, I'm not too sure how she started them, but she made them pencil thin and then braided two of each togtether, and then rubberbanded those and put them back in a pony tail. No wax was used. I was told not to touch for two weeks, then to take out the rubber bands but keep it back in a pony tail. Why keep them back and tied up for that time period? I think the method was a combination of palmrolling and backcombing, I have wavy/curly hair that tends to knot up on its own when left untouched. Is it concerning that they are so thin? I dont want any breakage, also, is it concerning that I'm not supposed to be twisting or palmrolling or doing anything to then am all? I'm just supposed to come by and see her whenever im worried, and to definitly check in in a month or two. I'm worried all the time though, I want them to knot up! Thanks for any info/advice. Also, I have alot of loose hairs flying everywhere, is that bad as well?
