For those that don't know me I've been natural since July '06 and used to post here often and on other hair forums however, I have not been posting here for a while mainly b/c I started my LOC journey a year ago and let's be honest, this site is more suited for loose natural & relaxed/texlaxed divas

I am excited to reveal my newly unleashed loose napps to you all!
I just took down my locs a few weeks ago..they were in for 6 months and prior to this last set I had 3 (yes 3!) other loc attempts within a 1 year time frame (Sisterlocks + Backcombed Locs + Loc Extensions + my last set 2-Strand Twist traditional Locs) ... I also had a 3 yr stint w/ small traditional locs back in college a few years ago!!
Why all this drama w/ locs? you ask
![Nuts :nuts: :nuts:](/smilies/nuts.gif)
Well to put it in a nutshell I guess I'm a perfectionist and I was never truly content with each set...for some sets it took longer to come to the conclusion than others

How did I take them out? you ask
I used mainly water and some conditioner to take my locs down and I used my FINGERS
