I started semi freeforms a few months ago, after cutting my microlocs off and growing out my fro!

At some point thwy were purple but ive decided to go with pitch black so it blends with the new growth better.

So far so good! Any tips would be lovely, but my routine is solid

I wash once a week or once every two weeks, it depends on how I feel honestly. My hair is high porosity so I do mist it with a tea ive made and use castor oil on my scalp afterwards, thats about it. ** As per rule 5, I am not "thirst trapping" this is just.. how my body looks. Im a woman. **

This is my first attempt at this kind of thing, I wanted a A5+ journal cover with inserts, but i didn't really like the whole leather thing, so I made this gal. Made from leather scraps, an old belt, and velvet fabrics around my room, she holds 4 journals ( Sketchbook, Planner, Grimoire, and commonplace) i do regret skipping out on grommets/eyelets though. But overall im very happy

I folded this rug in half, its huge, my mom gave it to me because she threw it in the dryer and it matted up like dog fur. I took it upon myself to make this into a fun project! Im brushing this out with a slicker brush [ removes Mattes in wire coated dogs ] and a little bit of conditioner. So far, im thinking of dyeing it black or purple, but if theres a better way to dye this or any thoughts or ideas im open to them!

Im at peace with knowing ima have to deal with gravitt- defiance for this entire first year at this point, but gosh its going so well, they're like plants, so beautiful 🥹

I cut these from the spine. So they're still blinded together, I need reccs! Should I make these into Traveler's journal inserts?? I love Moleskine and Leuchtturm, but they get expensive every year, lol

Just retwisted my starters,( 40 days old) while watching TV, never gotta pay for that again, I guess. Anyways Does my scalp look like its thinning or is it normal for retwists to be this scalpy?? I had two sets in the past and only retwisted every 3+ months, I like the frizzy big voluminous look, but my hair was annoying me- so im just wondering if my scalp is supposed to look this red 🫪

Surprisingly going super well! Loving my progress so far

Any tips appreciated, some locs are flattening, I don't mind it, they're super frizzy

This is my first genuine semi freeform journey, when I was loose natural I washed my scalp weekly, I can't imagine going a month without washing my hair so I interlocked them and hoped for the best. They still unravel when I wash, ao I just finger coil them into a shape and go about my day 🫪

This is genuinely the fastest ive ever seen my hair loc EVER. ive had previous sets but the people who say water locs your hair faster are so right, what the hell

First pic is my hair now and the second was a few weeks ago, I Def wanna semi freeform but idk if I ahould get retwists for the first few monrhs or not so they actually keep a structure

Im so drawn to having locs, my hair is sacred to me, so When I cut my 15 year old set off I felt empty for a long time. This is my final set, and im pretty excited

​

My plan is to let them do what they do after 3 months of making sure they don't unravel after a wash, so semi freeforms!

​

For those 3 months ill be doing a retwist with no palmroll so my locs can fully form, and then from there I'll let them do what they want to do :]

I already have a few plans for this zip up jacket:

- Spikes lining the hood

- Chain string replacement

- signature obv

All other ideas are appreciated, I don't have a denim jacket or anything right now so im sewing my leftover patches on this

As the title says, im macerating a cat spine! Ive never found any bones, this was my first time finding something worth taking with me. Me and my partner had a court date and beside the courthouse we found a.. uhm i guess decomposed cat. Nothing left but the bones, ears and fur, scattered across the ground, so I took the spine ( safely ). Ive rinsed it off really well a few times, its still able to bend so thats good. I simply looked up instructions on Google because I want to make this into a bangle or a choker to honor this poor baby, so I guess since I don't have dermestid beetles, we're sitting in the sun for a few weeks!
