Notice the tattoo there on my neck. It’s the Adinkra symbol Duafe. Surprisingly, this tattoo was not nearly as painful as the one on my foot. This was a style me and Tumika (LaSha) decided to be creative with. In the front of my Hair is Nubian knots, but I explained that I wanted some of my loc free to fall in the back of the Goddess bun made up of the nubian knots in the front. With the free standing locks…I simply twisted them (all in the same direction of the natural twist of my hair) and created a spiky look from the back view.

I love the two tone effect. this style always looks so complex and beautiful. I love forward to having the length to try this one day
@Naturalocs, thanks for delurking. The two tone comes from the outgrowth of the color from the roots. I colored my locs almost 2yrs ago, so now it just looks as if the i had my locs dipped in color. I’ve thought about layering my loc’s with another color to give a boost..but haven’t decided. Good luck on your loc journey.
Appreciated
Tempting to go for a dipped in colour effect in the future haha there’s time to decide.
