Mielle, Shea moisture, and Aphogee products have been amazing for my locs. I've also incorporated steam treatments and occasional deep conditioner. I use light oils and brush my locs from time to time. Keep the videos coming. Your locs look great! Also, I like your makeup, I've been looking for that type of blush.
I gotta try that. Nothing worse than using the wrong shampoo for locs. Ive had to wash and scrub my locs throughout the day after using the wrong shampoo… residue everywhere
Organix took my hair out really bad and a stylist said it has formaldehyde in it, I was told sulfate and paraben free products are best, since using them I’ve seen a big difference Love your videos❤
Sorry to hear that 💔,but happy to hear your is back on track. I personally didn't have a bad experience, but I haven't purchased any of their products since I heard about the lawsuit.
Total Body is a moisture restorer so it’s not for a deep cleanse. It’s just used after a clarifying to put the moisture back. So it makes sense that you don’t get a tingle or deep cleanse and it made your locs soft. That’s all it’s for 😂😂😂 The stimulating shampoo should be used after you have rinsed your locs for about 3-5 minutes and I use a small amount of a cheaper shampoo to just break everything up then the stimulating shampoo. Thanks for this video. I learned about some shampoos I want to try.
I have seborrheic dermatitis. I have to use a prescribed medicinal oil on my scalp before washing, then Neutrogena TGel to clarify, followed by Aussie Moisture shampoo (if I feel my Locs are dry) Without TGel, my scalp is hella itchy and irritated
Hey Sharmel! I’ve heard Melanin Haircare’s shampoo is really good too! I have my starter loc appointment next week, so excited for the journey! Thanks for the video!
This was very helpful, I'm 7 days in with my starters and worried about the wash process... can you do one like this for the oils you use, which cause buildup? Lighter? Etc.
Thanks so much for doing this! I’m 3 months in and I’m so afraid of build up! 🫣 I’m going to try the Dr. Locs brand and see how that goes. As far as conditioning, I’ve started using a water based leave in conditioner in hopes to add moisture without the build up. My next retwist is Thursday so I’m going to have my loctian see if I have any build up and that will determine whether or not I continue using it.

Thank you! The blush is from LA girl
Avalon Organics Clarifying Lemon Shampoo is the best, hands down 🙌
Ohhh dope

And tea tree oil is an odor fighter which I love

I love Trader Joe’s tea tree shampoo and conditioner
Can you get it from like Walmart or Target? Or did you order yours?
The dark hair colors look so good on you 😍😍😍
I think so too!
Thank you!

You can ad a drop of tea tree essential oil to your shampoo. Depending on how often you wash your hair Trager Joes is the one.
And...... It is either 3.99 so don't get ripped of by resellers.
Dr bronners peppermint, natural african black soap bar that come in the saran wrap for me

Thank you!

Thanks for the warning
I just use a drop or two in my clarifying shampoo ... I like the tea tree or peppermint Dr. Bronners
🏆 Fantasia Tea Tree Naturals Shampoo (Clarifying)
🏆 Design Essentials Honey Crème Shampoo (Moisturizing)
🏆 Design Essentials Rosemary & Mint Conditioner
I love your channel and your content sis! Thank you! But side note: the background music >>>> ✨ such a vibe!
Glad you enjoy it!
Try suave clarifying shampoo ❤
That left my hair dry
dr bronners adds lots of build up and residue if u have hard water
i agree, it didn't work for my hair.
@@gtillustrated2304nah it was the water not the shampoo😂

Absolutely! That video will be coming soon!
I use Mane and Tale shampoo and conditioner, and it works for me 👍
Cantu have a new cleansing restore I want to try
I want a good shampoo bar to stop my plastic waste...
Sameeee just tired of bottles falling in the shower 😮💨😂
@@dramaqueen9299 correct!
JR Liggetts makes great ones. Just be sure to form a lather and not rub the soap on your hair: chunks of soap can get trapped in your locs.
Do you have a video on how scrunchies thin your locs and how to avoid them I’ve noticed some of mine are thin after wearing 2 ponytails
I think your comment solved the reason my locs are thinning only in the area where I wear scrunchies. Let me stop now.
I use the taliah wajis oil haven't tried shampoo....
The Best shampoo is Black Jamaica soap
Mane,n Tail shampoo

You're welcome! I forgot to mention in the video, but I'd also recommend water based products for locs.
Knotty dread shampoo
