[mimosaapapi]

Had to switch it up on em, locs are maturing & doing what they do yessuhhh. 🔥

about reth's hairstyle, it's not locs guys alhdg it's a somewhat fantasy-esque hairstyle where his straight hair is long but twisted back and tied to keep it in place. we don't see it in the official art, but his in game model has multiple hair ties throughout the length of the pieces to keep his hair in that style. this hairstyle is doable in real life if you use that many ties

obviously these models don't show every single strand of hair but the official art backs up the fact that it's straight (note the individual strands that are loose)

you can see here that it's straight hair just twisted into individual pieces. you can also see in both the model and art that the end of his hair goes straight down and has clear separated strands. it wouldn't do this if his hair was locd (you'll notice that sifuu and hassian have blunt, round ends to their locs)

his in game model does have some pieces that don't have any ties so it's possible that those are locs but honestly, i doubt it. i'm gonna go out on a limb and say it has more to do with the hair being in the back and not needing as much detail. or the devs didn't want clipping issues since the back pieces are grouped so close together and his ties come up quite a bit. either way, his hair is most likely straight and just in weird ponytails basically. and if it is meant to be locs, then they're modeled badly aldhg especially in comparison to hassian and sifuu

3 months loc’d now!!! And they are starting to look like locs! the twist shape is becoming less defined and they have gotten much thicker! I have one particular loc that keeps slipping but I’ve tied it with elastics so hopefully if I leave it alone for a month it’ll figure itself out. I can feel the weight of my hair on my head now so that’s exciting!

Two reasons I love going to the natural hair salon while Black:

1. I smell like heaven. My locs smell like lemongrass, honey, and almonds. And whatever other herbs. I smell like paradise. So good.

2. Observing how our different textures are done. I watched a fro get dyed and styled into two strand twists off the scalp, I watched another, looser fro get two strand twisted to the scalp, I even observed interlocking. Really, you can do anything with our hair. It's an art, I'm telling you.

Whenever your Black peers come in with freshly done hair you make sure you compliment them, because a lot of work went in 😤

2 weeks into my starter locs and 2 of them are separating for some reason 😭😭😭 I need to stop playing in my hair but I looovveeee how they feel. I’m so much more comfortable with just wearing them out, I think they’re so cute! they’re also frizzy af and no amount of misting will change that 😭 I feel like by the end of March I’ll be decently locked… hehehe

[gamblersdoll]

and the answer is yes, he doesnt see a reason on why you do it, but he never argues with his babydoll.

so when you helped him dye his hair, he was like a little kid. turns out he likes having his hair touched by you. he has an afro, but he always debates getting his hair loc’d up again.

trust and believe that he shares your hair care routine and he doesnt know much about it, so he lets you because he knows that you love his hair.

if you decide to loc up, hes locing up with you. simply because he wants to share a journey with you and he knows yours would make you look delectable.

cornrows he wears a durag or YOUR bonnet (you dont know why, but he steals yours so he gets the smell of your hair on his. i dont know why he does this to us.)

if you stretch his hair from his afro his stretched hair goes to his shoulder, yet he likes the puffy texture so he never stretches it.

twist outs are on special occasions, but thats rare.

so his mains are locs and afros, and we love his hair, so he never cuts it unless it’s maintenance. and for retwists he gets a two strand twist or barrel twists. (he especially gets barrel twists when you ovulate.)

Retwist

Pairing: Trent Alexander-Arnold x Black Reader

Summary: You give your bf Trent a retwist (and some cuddles).

Notes: Trent's locs are everything 2 me ... but I just know he needs his scalp oiled + a satin bonnet I just know it. I would provide that for him … Anyways thank u for reading and gentle feedback is always welcome!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Grab me the mirror, comb, gel, oil, clips, and mousse – they’re all in the bottom cabinet.”

A moment later, Trent was stood in front of you with an armful of the requested items. His face was serious as he concentrated on not dropping anything. 

“Did you get everything I asked?” 

“Yeah, I’ve got it all.”

“Are you sure?”

Trent huffed out another yes, making the various bottles and items bobble. You probably wouldn’t use everything, but it was comforting to have each product in reaching distance. 

“Okay, sit.”

Though you loved his free-form look, retwisting your boyfriend’s hair was an activity you’d come to look forward to, even knowing that the fresh locs were likely to frizz just as soon as he went to training and showered after. Still, the time spent with him close together on the couch, and how handsome he looked in the aftermath, made the sedentary hour and a half worth it.

“Don’t pull too hard this time, alright?”

Trent was sat now on a pillow on the floor, with his head settled between your thighs. He’d wrapped his right palm into its usual position around your calf. 

“Trent, don’t be a baby.” 

“M’not a baby.” 

“Then stop acting like one. I haven’t even started yet.” 

He grumbled, but his brattiness soon melted away as you two got wrapped up in the plot of the movie he put on, and in the comfort of being so near to each other. You started with the locs in the back, gathering product into your hands and grabbing hold of the root of the twist. Then you twisted the hair in a clockwise direction, while holding it tight all the way until you reached the ends. After 45 minutes, you’d made it to the middle, but Trent had gotten antsy. 

“Keep your head still!” You scolded him. 

“I am still!” 

“No, you’re not, you’re fidgeting.”

“How am I fidgeting? I’ve not moved from between your legs, have I?” 

You sighed, not wanting to argue. 

“Let’s take a break.” 

You stood up to head to the kitchen, but Trent clung to your leg.

“Wait, where’re you goin?” 

“Just to the fridge, to get some water.” 

He relaxed back onto the foot of the couch.

“Oh, alright. Hurry back, though.”  

When you sat back down, he was calm again, and you two finished out the rest of the film while you worked. He kept his hand along your calf, and occasionally pressed his lips there absentmindedly, or to the inside of your knee. As the credits began to roll, you finished twisting the last strands in the front, and started to rub the peppermint oil through his scalp, which was his favorite part. 

“Mmm. All done?” 

“Yep, here.” You passed him the handheld mirror and you both looked into it. He turned his head this way and that. 

“You look so good, baby! I can’t let you out the house like this.” You called out, squeezing on to his shoulders. “I really did that, huh?” 

Trent scrubbed a hand over his chin, still tilting his head. His brow was furrowed. 

“Eh, it’s decent.” 

Your mouth dropped open.

“What?”

Trent picked at one of the locs above his eyes and dropped it, struggling to keep his face neutral.

“I mean it looks okay. S’alright.”

You leaned back from him, your face screwed up, and when he caught sight of your shocked eyes in the mirror, he cracked. 

“I’m just joking you, babe. Relax.” 

“Oh my gosh, get up - get away from me, move!” 

You got to your feet, and Trent followed after you. From behind, he wrapped you in a bear hug that you pretended to fight your way out of. That only made him squeeze you tighter, laughing as he pressed kisses to your cheek. 

“Stop it - stop fightin, I’m only playin. It looks great.” He smacked one last loud kiss to your neck, his hair tickling you. “Thank you.” 

You rolled your eyes but squeezed him back. 

“You’re not funny, you know, but you’re welcome. And remember that you gotta keep it wrapped up when you sleep.” 

“Well, that’s right now, innit? I'm knackered.”

“From what?” You looked at him wildly. “All you did was sit there?” 

“Exactly.” 

He walked back to the couch and stretched out, pulling off the quilt resting on the back. He patted the space in front of him. 

“Come here, why don’t ya?” 

You stared him down, hating and loving his big shiny eyes that you’d never been able to say no to. 

He cheesed when you started walking towards him. 

“Put on something new for us to watch, then.” 

You settled in alongside him, breathing in the sweet mixture of his scent with the product you’d put on his scalp. 

“But why? You’re gonna fall asleep in two seconds.” 

“No, m’not, I swear. I’ll stay up a bit.” 

You side-eyed him, but selected a movie anyway. It was a thriller, but you were comforted by his hand resting on your belly and his warm body behind you. Fifteen minutes in, you noticed the rise and fall of his chest against your back had become abnormally regular. 

“I called it! I called it. I swear I did.” You laughed in disbelief as you gently slithered from beneath his arm. When you returned with your scarf from the bathroom, and a bonnet for him, he was already snoring. With an annoyed fondness in your chest, you placed the silk carefully over his head, before tying your own hair up. You pulled his arm back over your chest, and cuddled in closer to him, eventually lulled to sleep by the quiet rhythm of his breathing.
