Let me tell ya’ll…….. Having Locs is not easy. Whoever keeps spreading this lie is Cray Cray!! I Love my Locs, but I have also explained previously that I am not a Hair Person. But over the past 3 years, I have done more hair than I probably have at any time in my life. Loc Maintenance is No Joke! So let me tell you about the most important things that I have learned having locs:
- Hydration is Key
- Cannot Use any products that cause Buildup
- Keeping your scalp oiled keeps your locs looking healthy
- Still need to clip your ends regularly
- If you love color, use a color treatment Shampoo and conditioner
- Protective styling is great for growth
- Styling is UNLIMITED
- YouTube Tutorials are your Friend
My Lady Locs
Some of these things are also key to regular natural hair care. I use to have a closet full of products but after my 1 year old was diagnosed with asthma, I had to get rid of any products with strong fragrances or lasting aromas. Which made me narrow my product list down quite a bit. But to make sure I’m maintaining healthy Locs, here are some of my favorite mildly scented hair care products:
- Doo Gro Mega Thick Growth Oil (retail value $8.99 4.5oz.)
- Doo Gro Mega Thick Anti-Thinning Growth Lotion (retail value $8.99 12oz.)
- Clairol Root Cleansing Strawberry and Ginger Shampoo (retail Value $9.99 10oz.)
- 12 Benefits Instant Healthy Hair Treatments (retail value $17.99 6oz.)
What products would you refer for healthy loc maintenance that I could use around my asthmatic baby boy?
