oh-my-zsh does not start on mac

Question

I installed oh-my-zsh as suggested in http://ohmyz.sh/. FYI,

[~]$ zsh --version
zsh 5.0.8 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0)
[~]$ echo $SHELL
/bin/zsh
[~]$ ls .oh-my-zsh/         


        

Answer 1

You have to change the default shell to zsh.
To do so use the following command.

chsh -s /bin/zsh
restart your terminal

I took it from here.
These were the steps I followed when I installed zsh.
I hope it will help you as well.
