Use This Everyday

This is what you are missing! Pick whatever scent you want, they all work the same.
Designed to be used everyday this is the secret sauce for healthy hair! Trust me! You’ll see results in how your locs look and feel in a week!

WHAT ITS FOR:
🍃 Breakage
🍃 Dryness
🍃 Hair Growth

What about oil?

It’s a very common myth that oil is everything! The truth is misting is most important. Oiling is great for hair growth but if your hair is dry and damaged there’s nothing oil will do! Mist everyday, and oil every other day! Use Loc Butter if you have colored locs! Use whichever scent you want, they all work!

QUICK NOTES:
🍃 Mist everyday
🍃 Oil every other day
🍃Use loc butter if you have bleached locs

Keeping your locs clean

Clean locs are very important! I don’t know who started the rumor that dirt grows hair but something is seriously wrong with that person. You have to be washing your locs every two weeks (matured locs). Starter locs are delicate so we suggest letting your loctician do it to prevent unraveling. We specifically formulated our shampoos + conditioners for locs so you have nothing to worry about with build up. If you have serious buildup, an ACV detox might be needed. Don’t be out here doing that often though, that’s very harsh on your hair

QUICK NOTES:
🍃 All natural shampoos + conditioner
🍃 Wash your locs every two weeks
🍃 Detox only if you have product buildup

What about getting retwists?

With over 13,000 clients with locs at our salon in New York City, we have done many retwists over the years. If you’re in the area check out our salon page at www.thelocgodsalon.com. However, the two main questions we get are:

HOW OFTEN TO GET A RETWIST?
Well we always say it depends on where you are in your loc journey! One size doesn’t fit all, but here’s the breakdown:
🍃 Straight/ wavy hair starter locs: every 3-4 weeks
🍃 Curly hair starter locs: every 4-5 weeks
🍃 Matured locs: every 6-8 weeks (can go longer once you’re separating hair on your own after washes)

WHICH METHOD FOR RETWISTS?
We only use the palm roll/ locksmithing method for Retwists. The only time crocheting is done is for loc repairs. Constant crocheting or interlocking will cause long term damage over the years! We only use the products down for our Retwists. Apply heat under a dryer or blow dryer for the gel.

Dont Forget This!

Your biggest enemy is your cotton pillowcases. These cause so much breakage and damage! And let's not get started about lint. Your locs are begging you to protect them and a satin hair protector is overlooked but so important!

WHICH TO CHOOSE?
We get it, everyone has different preferences but something better than nothing:
🍃 Use the durag for starter locs, you can add a bonnet over the durag for the best result
🍃 Use the bonnet for short/ medium length locs
🍃 Use the loc sock if you have really long locs
🍃 Use the satin pillowcase if you have really don't wrapping your hair at night but still want protection
