Hey ladies! Anyone in here have locs? I’m planning to begin my loc journey in a few months and wanted some insight on how your locs are received in the workplace. I’m a little nervous about it.

Have had locs since before consulting. No one has asked questions, touched inappropriately/without permission or said anything about it. I actually get a lot of compliments on it. I’ll tell you what I was told when I started my journey: it’s not the hair but the attitude that wears it. Wear your locks with pride & confidence

I’m considering it. I’ve been natural for like 8 years. I have really fine hair, and I’m concerned that it’ll take forever to lock. Any ideas for still looking polished while letting it do it’s thing?

My in-laws live in a bad area. A few months ago there was a drive-by shooting and several bullets went into their home(mostly in the living room) and destroyed their car. Thankfully, no one was physically hurt. Easter is approaching and his parents are planning something and my husband wants to go, but I don’t( nor bring my children). Recently his grandma died and the funeral was held at a church by his parents. We were literally in and out, but I feel he may use that as leverage. Thoughts?
