I have this bald patch and I have no idea where it came from! It looks as though I lost two locks in the front (2nd row on the left hand side). During my last re-tightening, I let someone do my edges and it was not my regular lady... what happened?!! I am now massaging my scalp with my rosemary and bergamot oil mix. I am crying on the inside! Right when I grew my previous patches after switching consultants to a woman with a more tender touch... choose your consultants wisely or do it yourself! Maybe it is the postpartum hormones balancing and hopefully I can rectify the situation!
I found this home remedy for hair loss from Seasoned To Taste, hope it works!
HAIR LOSS: Those suffering from hair loss or baldness, may apply a paste of hot olive oil, one tablespoon of honey, one teaspoon of cinnamon powder before bath and keep it for approx. 15 min. and then wash the hair. It was found to be effective even if kept on for 5 minutes.
At least the patch is not noticeable right now.

I have had my fair share of thin locks, mostly from hair loss at the edges after intense re-tighten sessions.  Once the hair starts to grow back and grow longer I am faced with a dilemma similar to Kreyola's... Should I or Shouldn't I cut them off. I have made the decision on a loc by loc basis to cut them off for aesthetic reasons. Sometimes the loc is hanging by a string and thick at the root, again ruining my overall look.  So then I cut them off as soon as it grows long enough.

In instances where the lock breaks off, my new consultant has successfully re-attached them as if nothing has happened at all! But we all face thinning or locs that break if we stay loc'd long enough, including those with traditional locs.
