I'm 15.5 months loc'd. For the past few weeks, I've been wearing my locs pulled up and back. My scalp became tender and sore because of the constant tension. So for the next few weeks, I'm embracing wearing my locs down, allowing them to flow freely and for my scalp to breathe. I'm honestly not a huge fan of wearing my locs down because I feel as if they're not long or thick enough yet with volume. So as a result, I'm always wearing my locs pulled up and back -- if you've noticed -- because I feel as if doing so gives me the volume I'm seeking.
