GROWING THICK LOCS(Tips)

* If you want thick locs,your parting system must be a bit bigger. The spacing will determine how thick your locs will be. However, it will depend on your hair type. If you have thick hair naturally you may not require to space your parts too wide apart. But with thin hair you will require big parts.

*Avoid constant retwisting. Just let your hair be. Retwist after maybe 2 to 3 months if you want to achieve that thick fuller look on your locs.

* Make sure you wash your locs oftenly. Clean locs are healthy locs.

*The more you retwist your locs the thinner they get. If you want a neat look but still dont want your locs to thin out, you can retwist only the edges, or just brush your locs a little to press them down for styling.

* Do not mind what people will say. Embrace the beauty of your natural hair and style it as you want after washing it.

* Too much wax/gel on your locs will mess them up with build up. Let your hair be and enjoy every step of your journey.

Thats all for now.

Till next time!

TREATMENT AND CONDITIONING

Hey loves! I feel so jelous of my locs today. They got so much attention from me!From massage, dye, conditioning,masking and just letting it relax.They must be super happy today!! Having blonde hair has been my thing for years. It defines my hair and me as a person.But one tricky thing with hair dye is that it can easily damage your locs. Your locs become dry and prone to breakage. You can avoid all this misfortunes by conditioning and moisturizing your locs properly. Dyed locs require extra care or else they will start thinning or even falling off!! Just to break it down for you, this is how I treated and conditioned my locs after applying dye. *After applying the dye, I rinsed off with cold water and dried my locs with a towel. * I then used nice and lovely treatment (for the first time)- I am trying out new products to see which works best on my locs before I settle on one treatment. * After the treatment I sat under a drier for 10 minutes. Then rinsed it off. *For conditio...

TO USE WAX OR NOT?

For a long time now, I have been battling with the same question. Many of my clients and friends have also asked me about wax and which is the best method to maintain locs. First of all wax or moulding gel is the most common method of locs maintenance. For the simple reason that it keeps the locs looking neat and smooth. But just like everything else, it has its pros and cons. From a personal experience, using wax in excessive amounts will damage your locs, they will start having build up (the whitish stuff) and it’s really hard to get it out. Your locs will appear untidy and you may even start hating them to the point of wanting to cut them. If you want to use wax for your retouch, please visit your loctitian, he or she will know the right amount of wax to use in retouching your locs and the right way to dry them. If the wax is not dried properly, it will stick to your locs and form build up. Apparently, some fellas opt to retouch their locs on their own as a way of saving money. T...
