Love this look on you! I just wanted to share that I use a few drops of hyaluronic acid to moisturize my locs. I apply it after misting them evenly with my spray bottle (water + a few drops of any essential oil). I think a lot of people sleep on this tbh. It makes your hair feel and look SUPER healthy and hydrated. It’s similar to what it’s like when you use coconut oil, but without weighing it down or making it greasy. Hyaluronic acid is also water soluble so there’s no worry about excessive buildup. Hope this suggestion helps someone :)🖤

In order to keep my starter locs moist I steam my hair after moisturizing it and go to sleep with a plastic bag on my head. Since its the winter time I also go outside with a plastic cap on(with a headwrap on top), and just take everything off when I get to my destination. It keeps my hair moist. I do that for 3 days and on the 4th day I remoisturize my hair and/or wash it if it's dirty

I can’t recommend a monthly routine bc there are so many factors; density, porosity, texture, climate, environment, lifestyle, etc. You have to learn your hair by trying things.

Spraying my hair with anything does nothing. That includes rosewater. Spray and then oil does nothing. I can't wash it a lot either. Yet it's flourishing. When did dry hair become so taboo?

Most people with dry hair experience breakage. And it doesn’t feel good for dry hair to be touching your skin either.

I used the same conditioner before getting my locs, I didn't change my routine only limited the creams and butter. I shampoo my hair every two weeks with a clarifying shampoo followed by a moisturizer shampoo, (to put the moisture back that the clarifying shampoo strips). I mist my locs daily with, Aleo Vera juice, Rosemary water, a water base leave-in conditioner, and essential oils.

All products CAN cause build up. Based on how frequently or how thoroughly you wash, you can absolutely get rid of it. There are also ways to deep clean your locs as well.

@ccookies1 Жыл бұрын

My advice is to stick to water based or water soluble products that will dissolve entirely when washed. I wash weekly with a clarifying shampoo (diluted with water) and then a moisturising shampoo (also diluted) and then spray daily with rose/rosemary water and deep condition every 2 weeks with raw aloe vera gel. I retwist whenever I feel like it with homemade flaxseed gel. No oil (which stops actual moisture aka water from penetrating the hair follicle, dries out the scalp and attracts lint) or products.
