I’m 20… I had an interest in gymnastics when I was in elementary school which lead my mom to putting me in a weekly class just for fun, she bought me a gymnastics mat for home, etc. However, I haven’t really dabbled in it much and want to start again. What’s making me hesitant is the fact that most gymnasts I see have been doing this since childhood. Would it be too late for me???
I currently don’t go more than 6 weeks without a retie since I’m currently 5 months loc’d. I’ve seen people do no more than 4 weeks or waiting as long as 12 weeks for a retie: what’s your sweet spot?
Boho braids, Marley twists, sew ins, wigs, etc. I want to try Marley twists over my micros. My loctitian told me to be cautious of the weight of the twists. I’ve worn some wigs over my locs and that was fine. Should I wait til my locs are fully mature before attempting?
I also did miracle knots on my microlocs and took them out with no damage
I watched a couple videos saying that rootwork isn’t for beginner practitioners. I recently purchased a book that taught me the history of rootwork and included some instructions on how to create mojo bags and different spells, purposes of the different elements and how to implement them.
Do I have to do shadow work? I’ve already done my fair share of shadow work and research. My mother and I created a sort of an alter for our deceased loved ones. When can I start?
I combed my traditionals out for micros in December 2025. When I had traditionals, my locs were significantly thicker and starting to mature in just 9 months. I’m only 5ish months in with my micros but was wondering if it took longer for microlocs to thicken up and mature?
I want a Commisuroplasty to lengthen my lips. Pros and cons to this procedure? I tried to find healed results as well and couldn’t find any.
