Do you find that different stylist have different opinions of your hair? When I went to the CIK stylist, she told me I had fine and medium strands with medium density. When I went to the Ulta stylist, she told me I had baby fine strands and high density. I have family members who have hair that is far denser and finer than mine. I guess density and texture are on a spectrum.
 
I cut and combed out my almost 2 year-old locs back in April with the intent to make them smaller locs. But I'm not really sold on it after getting back into wetting my hair daily. I'm fully natural again but not wearing my hair loose at all. Just transitioned some TSTs into minibraids and then into cornrows after a month. I'm feeling a bit rusty in the hair game. I'm not sure about my hair goals right now but I will try to find some challenges/threads here to join bc that really used to keep me engaged and accountable.

Currently, between SL-APL in the back, SL on the sides and EL up front. Shrinkage has me at NL. Planning to just keep it cornrowed bc even the mini braids were too much work. I think the loc life made me hair lazy, lol. I know I went into locs due to hair laziness though. I had grown my hair to WL natural and then texlaxed so I think I was over it all for a minute.

Sticking with my tried and true KISS regi of low-to-no manipulation, no tool styling/finger detangling 99% and ayurveda in almost all of my steps in my regi. Not sure if I'm ever gonna straighten but it feels really weird right now to have short hair again and I don't have the energy to develop a more intensive regi right now.

That's how I feel. The loc game made it so comfortable to wake up and go. I struggled with my natural hair because I can't do that even though I did for a little bit lol. Those baldheaded shenanigans gave me hella knots too. So I relaxed and it's a bit less time consuming. I call myself trying to put in some protective styles, but, alas if I don't get it done the first night, it just doesn't get done. I take down what I've done so far, and I get kinda stuck because my hair's all types of lengths(this was actually my fault, sometimes being lazy bites you in the you know where). And it's about neck length in the back, but the top is all sorts of length. now I stick to cornrows on my own hair that I do in the dark(I could do a better job but I don't feel like standing, looking, and parting), or a twist and pin back because that's the only thing that looks remotely good. I'm still trying to find my way lol. I just got used to the get up and go with my locs. Trust me when I say I know how you feel.
