At the two month mark I became a little frustrated with my locks. The main reason for my frustration was the fact that they keep unravelling. I band before every wash, decreased my washes to every two weeks, and tie down at night and sleep on a silk pillow. For some who may know, I went to my loctician at the 3 week mark for a touch up on the 7 that unravelled. Well i had to do so again this friday. She reassured me that I'm on the right path and actually gave me some great news. She said although they are unravelling, they are starting to settle. This made me happy to know that at least something was happening. I went ahead and scheduled my 12 week retightening for thanksgiving weekend and will see how i do in the next 3 weeks.
As I mentioned before, I diminished my washes because I decreased my workouts. Since i have no control whether they unravel, I'm going back to working out aggressively with cornrows then letting them dry before i take down and do a witch hazel/water mist.
