Default 05 civic ex front brakes

Ok so im new here you can call me half sack (long story about the name dont want to get into it now) im having a bit of issues and hoping someone can help me out, out of everything ive done on cars in the last 6 years ive been workingon them ive never done the break calipers and bleeding stages so i got help from a friend and we are stuck my pads and calipers are brand new the rotors are a bit carved in but after im driving down the road for a bit after changing them out and learning the whole process my breaks keep locking up on me out of nowhere and wont realease pressure im hoping its not a clogged/kinked line but if it is i can fix it, is there any ideas besides the lines are clogged that could be causing this issue?? Anything helps if you an idea or could help me figure out whats going on with these breaks. Its been happening for 3 days now where they will lock up and than unlock on there own at random and than do it again at any random *** time

If you have drum brakes in the rear they may be locking up if the hardware is worn out .

Maybe the brake hose has internally collapsed , while I don't think a grooved rotor would cause this it certainly isn't proper .
