I never wore a shower cap and did water rinses every other day during the first month of my locs and my hair is now locd. The two strand twist pattern is almost nonexistent as well and it’s been 2 months. 4c hair loves water and it helps it loc much faster!

Yessss, Nya!!! You’re so right 🙌🏾💕 what were your water rinses?!? Did you completely submerge your hair in water or did you do more like a mist? I might try those every now and then between washes! Love the idea 😍

Details! You gave ALLL the details. Lol but honestly, you were so spot on when you mentioned how our loose natural hair reacted to water. It is so interesting to be on this journey and essentially re-learn my hair. Basically, I do the opposite of what I learned from my loose natural days. I’m loving it so far.

I absolutely love your videos and your locs!! I have 4c hair also and while doing research I wanted to follow someone with the same hair type. Then I found you 😊 My journey started exactly one week ago on February 4, 2023. I started thinking about locing my hair back in December, did research in January and jumped right in. I’ve always loved the way locs look and I’ve been looking for a way to embrace my hair since going natural 9 years ago. I truly believe locs are the answer. I’m not a product junkie but I gathered the ones I had and got rid of them. Why? My locs won’t need them. I’m fully committed to my journey and excited for it. Thank you for sharing the way you do…even years later!!

Hi beautiful. Thanks for the tips. Yes water in your hair and body keeps your hair and skin looking healthy. Your skin is flawless. What is your skin routine? Be aware that lint and frizz are issues that you will have to deal with during your loc journey. It is absolutely essential to find an oil or moisturizer that your hair "likes" in order to lessen the frizz. Find your core products and maintain your shampoo and conditioner schedule. Less is more when you have locs. Our locs are like a magnet for anything in the atmosphere. Keep the videos coming. I'm so proud of you Alexis!

Thanks for the compliments 😍 I’m with you 100000% when you say WATER keeps your hair and skin healthy. Maybe I’ll film my skincare routine one day! I wash my face with cream in the shower, then apply a toner, and mist with rose water before adding a hydrating face cream 😍😊 for me, it’s all about keeping skin clean and hydrated. Sending hugs!!!!

Hi, lovely lady!!! Thank you so much for taking time to leave some love 💗 it really brightened my day! Congratulations on your new journey!!! I’m excited for you. I use water and oil pretty much every day (I think I’ve only skipped maybe one day - when my scalp didn’t feel like it needed to be oiled). I also use grease instead of oil if my scalp is really feeling dry! So it just depends, but so far I’ve been hydrating (lightly) daily 😊💗

So my boyfriend started his locs a little over 2 weeks ago and the stylist told him not to wash it for two months and not to spray it or anything She will wash it when it’s time for his first retwist I don’t agree with it 100% because i know his scalp and it gets real itch and he has dandruff What do you think?

@AlexisHarris 3 жыл бұрын
Hey Rozlyn! Great question. I’m a firm believer that we have to take care of our hair and scalp and clean it when it’s dirty or itchy or irritated! Since it’s so early in his journey, he may choose to cleanse the scalp a different way (maybe with a damp cloth) instead of submerging his full head of hair in water. My first wash and retwist was at 4 weeks and I’m just fine 😊💕🙏🏾 hope this helps!!!! Keep me posted

Hey beautiful!!! So glad you’re still hanging in there with me and checking out these videos 😍😊 THANK YOU! I’d definitely say retwist any locs that unravel because the longer you wait, the longer it’ll take for that loc to catch up with the others (at least in my mind lol). I’m no expert though, so do what feels right to you! I waited weeks to comb out and retwist the three of mine that unraveled... and, looking back, I should have retwisted them sooner. Once I retwisted them, they stayed perfectly in place like the rest of my locs 😍 so I don’t know why I waited so long lol

Hey beautiful! If they’re unraveling (like not loc-ing), I recommend retwisting from the root. But if they’re maintaining their consistency but the freshly retwisted look isn’t looking so fresh anymore, you can palm roll. I have a video on how to retwist and you can see my loctician do my full head of locs 💕
