9 months free-form journey

The first pic was December 2023 and then the second was last March just to show what I had before. My hair started naturally locing up by itself in May (3rd pic) and then I pretty much just let it do it's own thing for the rest of 2024 until October (6th pic). November 1st I washed (7th pic) and redyed my hair which caused it to loc up even more and start drooping down losing the fro look (8th pic). The last two pics I took earlier this month 4 days apart from each other showing shrinkage and how heavy it got since Nov.
