Yarn Locs Pros & Cons...anyone?

[I Am So Blessed]

Hey y'all, I've been thinking hard about doing yarn locs on myself, but first I'd like to ask. Does anyone have any tips or any Pros or Cons about them?

Thanks alot.

I used to love doing yarn Locs but I found that they were drying to my hair even though I moisturized with care free curl. I wasn't sealing back then so maybe that made a difference. I never liked washing my hair with them installed because they would get so heavy and carry an odor. I kind of gave up on them as a good protective style for my hair.
