    This was really helpful. My loctician told me not to wash or do anything with my twists aside from wrap my head before bed. My scalp feels so dry, and i can see the flakes/dandruff. From watching other loc journey videos on youtube, not enough people include having itchy scalps like what I'm experiencing. I'm only a week into it now, but definitely don't want to deal with an itchy head for another 4 weeks until my retwist appointment. I'll try this and hope it works for me.

      @@zakmo9455 I couldn't be happier with the process! After testing out different oils, I found that hemp seed oil and Vitamin E oil have helped the most with reducing the dryness & flakiness of my scalp. My locs are long enough to put into ponytail and a pineapple style now. Thanks for asking!

      Try using mielle oil or other oils for your scalp. Put a bit in your palms and rub on your head

    Thank you do much for sharing. ❤️ Great advice and content. I just started my loc journey one week ago. I have always wanted locs. Decided to begin locs after cutting two feet of hair off. Now that my TWA is growing out it’s a great time to start locs.

    Is it okay if I use locking gel to twist them when there dry to get them Moisturized?

    • @CamcorderBanks
      @CamcorderBanks  5 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Good question. I would not recommend you use locking gel to moisturize your hair. Only use it when your retwisting.
      Instead, use rose water to soften, moisturize and train your coils.

      Good question. It itches bad when you don’t oil your scalp. When it’s dry, you will have itching situations happening.

    When you put on the durag, is it ok to tie it tight to the head? Or should it be loose?

    • @CamcorderBanks
      @CamcorderBanks  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Neither. It shouldn’t be in between. Don’t make it too tight. And it shouldn’t be loose either. It’s should be snug enough to stay on.

      Don’t look at it as an “ugly stage” it’s more of your hair experiencing a developmental/growth period. Your hair is adjusted to loc form. As for itching try to find some light natural oils to use on your scalp or aloe Vera

      Yes. It really does effect your loc journey. Try to avoid scratching it by using oils. And if you have to scratch, use a silk du-rag and scratch only a little.
