While wearing my watch it keeps locking, I unlock it and after it dims it locks again. I go to the settings and the turn passcode if greyed out, I've looked in my phones settings and there isn't anything I can turn off. I do not have any restrictions on the phone. I never had this issue until recently, this renders my watch useless since I never get notified of anything and can't use it for anything during activities.
Not necessarily the case. But tattoos under the detectors can cause the watch to think it has lost contact with your wrist/skin. Many people report success using something like this,

There are pluses and minuses. One the positive side is your watch will lock properly and you’ll be able to added payment methods to your Wallet etc. Some people report the accuracy of the sensor is not interfered with. However, others report that some health metrics give false information. This would be related to heart rate (BPM) and the ECG. The variable is the nature of the tattoos under the sensors including density, color of pigments etc.

Is your watch too loose on your wrist? That can cause these kinds of issues
Do you have tattoos?
The watch is tight on the wrist.
Yeah, could that really cause the issue? So now I can’t use my Apple Watch at all since I have tattoos?
