So, I guess I have resorted to annual posts about my hair. Three years in and loving it. Funny thing is I keep hearing of loc-heads I used to watch when I was starting out who are cutting off their locs and either starting over or giving up the loc life altogether. I am so grateful for the videos and blogs they posted which aloud me to peer into their loves and learn from the experiences they shared. But is makes me wonder if I too will grow weary of my locs at about years 5 - 7. I changed my straight hair very often. I wonder if I will get tired of my locs like I did of all of the straight styles I had. Oh well, only time will tell.
But for now I am still LOVIN' MY LOCS!!!!!

Hey there, you're not alone in your observations. I've noticed 2-5 years seems average for those who choose to end their loc journeys for whatever reason. I too wonder if I'll ever just want my loose hair back. I can totally imagine feeling that way if my hair became weak, thin, or damaged beyond repair but I don't foresee it occurring out of boredom. Unlike many, if I did end my journey I'd be gladly back to a perm with 2 years unless it was firmly ponytail length and healthy.
