I'm only on month 2 of my Loc journey and I started them myself with comb twists. I've had a lot of flaking near my hairline (this was never an issue before) so I had to wash my hair several times. Now they look fat in the middle, Even if I retwist them. I don't know if they're budding or not because they're still soft. Has anyone else had this issue? Is it normal???
