    As of right now- yeah. I've cut mine several times, but I don't think I will go back loose for a few decades. I have considered rocking a cute silver TWA when I hit 75.

    well, this month will be ten years for me, and I decided that I am combining some to make a few stronger bases, completely free

    I have been loced for almost 13 years now...I think I'm gonna be a lifer. I keep my locs trimmed to a certain length & I do think of going loose. I've had dreams about being loose from time-to-time. Then I come to my senses-- that is, when I remember how much work being loose meant for me.

    I'm still in the loc game and have zero plans of exiting. Next month will be 10.25 years.

    I'll be locked for 13 years at the end of this month. I don't have any plans to change.



    Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry.
    It merely astonishes me.
    How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company?
    It's beyond me.
