Hello all!

I am new here and I started locking my hair using twist and rip method with very little knowledge of what the heck I was doing 2 months ago after a while I fell into a depression and stopped messing with my hair. It had started to bond at the roots two weeks ago I decided to shave my head. Well tonight I started ripping them apart.. or at least trying.. and they are starting to really lock and bud. I like the way they feel.. but it’s a mess.. I want to just let them grow the way they are supposed o grow but I need help with all the “bonding” they are doing closer to me head. Any advice is welcomed!

ps if I could go back I would have gone compete natty.
