Loc Updo

Almost 19 months and Counting.......

My babes are almost 19 months and I am in love with them lol Its crazy how I wouldn't lock my hair before my natural journey, well my life is one big change. I washed them the other day and added alittle TLC and made a Herbal Tea Rinse with apple cider, peppermint tea, peppermint oil, henna, sweet orange oil. The picture is the after effect the tlc time n I said it was worth it.......

Pruning Dreadlocks

Before Pruning 

I haven't pruned in along time.....too embarrassed to post a before picture of my locs before pruning them. As a Locitian, I stress to my customers to Prune or Trim their locs because the extra loose or wild straight hairs will not mend into the dreadlocks. Having this loose hair hanging around will only create problems in the locs like spaces that are not locking which can cause thinning and breaking. So once a month or two prune your locs so therefore you can have beautiful, thick, manicured dreadlocks. Pruning Services should be in the price rage 15.00 to 20.00, checkout your local Locitian.

RED HAIR FRIDAY

It really didn’t do much since I did bleach my roots which I don’t intend on doing until after the new year. But I use Adore “Intense Red” and processed for 20 minutes ( bottle states 15 mins). I think that it will lighten in a few days…I will keep a update since my hair is still wet right now.

LOC TREATMENTS | HERBAL TEA RINSE FOR LOCS

I am little late on posting a few things. Last Saturday I did my first herbal rinse Yay! It felt so good to my scalp! There are different Rinses to use so just research and find the right one for you.

Here is how to make a Sage and Rosemary Rinse yourself:

1. (2) sprees of Sage and Rosemary in a pot of water and broil for about an hour n half.

2. Add (2) Tablespoons of Ginkgo and Horsetail Power

3. After everything has been broiled to the correct time, go ahead strain the rinse in to a bowl. Might have to do this method more than one time.

A Glass Pitcher or Bowl should be use so your rinse will not absorb minerals from the containers.

(No Plastic or aluminum)

4. Get a extra bowl for catching the rinse as you pour it on your locs. Repeat this method for 3 to 4 times or until your rinse is almost go.

5. Enjoy the Cleanness of your locs!
