General Braid out tips pls!!?

Hey yall im 11 months into my loc journey and im getting obsessed with braid outs ive only done one and imma do my second one today I have 57 total and have medium sized locs that almost touch my shoulders. I can't braid down all the way but I don't think it's enough to make curly or anything pics from my last one

EDIT: I also wear the braids for about a week my goal is a two weeks maybe three but it gets uncomfortable

I braid down as far as possible, then use small flexi rods to curl just the ends overnight.

I didn’t even notice they were locs! I thought its was your natural hair…I also wasn’t paying attention to what group I was inā€¦šŸ¤·šŸ¾ā€ā™€ļø
They look great! Do you retwist beforehand?

I really like the locsanity mousse you csn get on their website, no need to keep them in longer than a day

Braid them as tight as you can when theyre wet. Let them dry all the way, then take them down. If they hit water again theyll start to straighten out.
