This video is NOT sponsored or paid content unless stated otherwise. My opinion is ALWAYS honest, boo!
I use the Yannie method, rose water and vitamin E oil. Fill the bottle half with rose water and half with vitamin E oil. In the winter I add black jamaican castor oil to it as well. Also, I usually add some lavender, patchouli or sage to that mixture. Hope this helps as well. 🦋
Does that work? And where do you get rose water from? And vitiman E
Lo Smit it really does! Amazon
Thank you
@@losmit2194 you can make your own rose water and get vitamin E oil from Amazon.
I just can’t do castor oil it pulls my hair all they way out I found that out before I locd up rose water & coconut oil works for me
Drink water... drink water “ game changer #1, the body needs hydration to feed the system. Rosewater, Vitamin E Oil, and Olive Oil. “game changer #2” Drink water, Essentia Water, coconut water.
What does that do?
Yeah I been drinking more water I definitely see a difference
Jamaica in the house!🇯🇲
I’m a year in with my loc journey and I’m guilty of neglecting my locs😔 I’ve started to see them get dry over the last two months. I was very uneducated when I started my locs. I thought my hair would just grow since it was locced up😭 I’m starting to do more research though and I’m improving 🤎 Thank you for this video. Very helpful!
How you doing now sis?
I love doing my hot oil treatments every time I wash, which is once a month. Then I'll spritz with aloe vera juice, distilled water, olive oil, black seed oil, emu oil. During the week as needed.
Sounds like an great moisturizing combo! ♥️♥️ thanks for sharing Queen
Hi I'm just a few months locd and I'm learning everyday. I just wanted to know if you use a hooded dryer when doing your hot oil treatment? Thanks alot. Trying to get the healthiest routine for my locs.
@@profe929 my opinion is not to use a dryer. You can put on a wave cap or a shower cap and let the heat from your head do it. You don't want to bake it in and please don't wash out the treatment. The oils need to stay until your next wash. No need to go to a store and get a bunch of products. All that the lady is saying you can make at home. TH-cam it. You will be so surprised how easy and less expensive it is.
My locs were dry because I color treated them and then moved to the dessert where it was bone DRY😓 I noticed that as my hair got older it needed more and more care
It’s gotten better now that I’ve started spraying with aloe juice and essential oils and have reincorporated hot oil treatments into my wash routine.
Love your point about using what works for you not just what works for your favorite guru! Thanks for sharing
I use Rosewater and vitamin E mixture to most my locs...
PREACH
Ebony Scroggins A Yannie follower?😊
Thanks for this! I have dyed and bleached locs. I make a spray mix of aloe, distilled water, rosemary and lavender essential oils, and a tiny bit of avocado oil. Then, I seal with Apricot oil mixed with a few essential oils. I wash weekly, and clarify and do steam treatments at least monthly. Drinking enough water helps very much as well.
I love rose water...and I have castor, Grapeseed oil and essential oils (lavender, rosemary and lemon grass) on my scalp directly...then run it through my hair (on wash days...which can be 3 weeks in between)... But I do rinse my hair when I shower if I do it in the morning instead of at night so I don't have a wet bed head.
Im gone need that vid of you moisturizing your locs asap 😁
I like to spritz with distilled water, put a very light amount of oil on my locs, then brush the locs (not my new growth)! This has been very nice in the softness of my locs!
I use orange blossom or rosewater for hair and wild growth on my scalp. Thorough water wash every week. Shampoo every 4 weeks
How do you dry your hair thoroughly if your locs are thick and long without getting dread rot? My problem is I love love love water all day everyday and this time around I'm trying to avoid that problem
@@Blessed2SeeTomorrowI can't read all of your reply for some reason but will do my best to answer.
My locs are only just to my shoulder at the back but thickness is the same as yours.
After squeezing water out I wrap them in a microfiber towel for about 1/2 hour - get dressed and do makeup.
Then air dry.
Those towels are SUPER absorbent xx
You can purchase from Amazon get 2 xtra large ones for your length hair - you'll be impressed 😊
Damn girl you so gorgeous. Your locs are everything. Locs are so beautiful and unique 💞
I just received my rose water and wild growth oil from Amazon 🤗
Save your money and make it yourself. You can get some rose peddles out of your yard and buy some distilled water put in a pot bring to a boil. Turn off stove let it sit. Water will turn light red. Boom rose water. Wild growth oil. Just get a bottle and add different oils in it including jojoba oil and vitamin E and boom wild growth oil.
Desert dry made me click🤣
When I started my locs about 5 months ago, My scalp was so itchy and dry. I found that Design Essential’s Tea tree & Aloe w/peppermint oil worked. Now that it’s summer, I don’t have to apply it as often. And I switched my pillow case to a satin one. My hair loves water, so that and coconut oil is my weekly my regimen.
Yessss! 😍😍😍 I’m glad that you’ve found something that works for you!
I washed my hair with their shampoo impressed oat and henna. Now I'm going to buy conditioner something else.
I use the aloe/ peppermint oil to retwist because my scalp is very sensitive and other oils just irritate it. It does give a soft hold but it does last until I wash it.
Perfect timing! My hair is super dry and crunchy allll the time. Currently using water and an oil mixture and it’s not working. Thank you for the tips and product suggestions!
Use rosewater instead if regular water
Also when washing your hair and or retwisting let it air dry instead of a dryer. You must put a loc sock on your hair at night. The natural heat from your head will moisturize your hair. Also be careful of the shampoo your using on your hair. It can dry it out. Be mindful of what you use to retwist. Anything that has alcohol in it will dry your hair out. You can retwist with rose water and oil.
What kind of shampoo do u use?
@@nasyaw Don't let dreads air dry lol it'll give you dread rot
It will only give you Mildew or breakage if your hair tends to retain water for too long, which is why it’s important to know if you have low/high porosity hair. I’ve been air drying for 9 years. My hair is fine & it’s flourishing. 😁
The starting tho 😂. Love my fellow Jamaicans 😂👌
The first 5 seconds is all we needed lol. But seriously thanks. 😄😄
Needed this video. I got so busy I washed once every 2 months and just spray oil & water every other day. My locs are starting to feel like hay. I know better so I’m doing better.
I need a retwist, I wet my locs often. But i notice when I go to my loctician once every 3 months, she moisturize my hair and it looks great for a month, then it draws up and reaches for the sky. I use a durag and a handmade yarn skully on top. 4-5 inches now.
Decided To Lock My Hair 🥴🥳 Now I’m Here
Mines are dry because of hair coloring. But I definitely need a routine to. I just add water , oil vitamin e and
My locs are dry, because I live in the desert and it is very warm, I moisturize my hair weekly.
My scalp hates rosewater and vitamin E oil I don't know what to put in my hair anymore 😤🤦🏿♀️Hellllppppp!
I had that issue just last week. I had to wash my hair and oil my scalp, i ran out of my oils. Smh but aside from that i haven't been wearing my silk bonnet at night and i don't drink water often. But now im starting back on my regimen and i just retwisted my locs so they're getting back to how they were before.
Excellent! Water based sprays are a must. Especially in the colder areas now, low humidity etc. Thanks.
YES DARLING THANK YOU 🥰 I AM LEARNING HOW TO TAKE CARE OF MY LOC'S MYSELF 🎯 BY WATCHING ALL THE VIDEOS I CAN🤔
It was the intro for me. ❤ blessings sis.
I think it’s because the old advice was to leave your locs alone and let it do what it does. But new advice is to treat it like any other style. Fight build up with a good cleanse routine.
Can you post a video on how you do your tea rinses please?🙂
I been trying Yannie method Jamaican castor oil and wash every 3 month and do what she say leave the hair alone!!!!The sun is for our bodies and our hair my dreads are beautiful and yours are to
I use rose water, avocado juice, Avocado oil, and extra virgin olive oil to moisturize my locs.
Correction Hair is ALIVE! Afro hair is our antenna to d UNIVERSE....dont let Euro-vision cloud ur Afrikan spirit. please do ur research....Caribbean sista watching from d the netherlands. peace blk luv & frank-incense
ArA♥ b Basic science shows us that hair is nothing but dead cells. Everything you’re talking about is belief and a fallacy. Point blank period ❤️.
They said not to wash my hair when I first did it for like two months, I did not last one week. I just can NOT do that no wash thing, I'm so sorry 🥴!
I'm so glad you advised to wash!
Is Leave-in conditioner good for locs?
I’ve been using water and grape seed oil spray for a while but sometimes it’s still dry lol but the growth has been good compared to using heavy products like the Rasta spray.
Same!
What is rasta spray?
How should locs feel? How can you tell the difference between dry to touch vs dry because of a lack of moisture?
You can tell 😂😂😂😂 feels just dry and dead. When they are good they are sofy and not dry
6:41 did it for me. Great video...I use Jamaican Mango and Lime hair spray -though it reduces itchy scalp I'm concerned about the mineral oil + sodium chloride in it.
I use oil (Jamaican castor oil, Doo gro, wild growth)on scalp every other day and rose water, water, a very light leave in conditioner like Carol's Daughter or Creme of nature as needed. I wash my hair every week or every other week.
Your skin is beautiful!!!
I always look forward to your videos...so informative 💚
I appreciate it Queen ♥️😘😘
My locs are dry due to coloring them. I don't tie them up at night due to migraines so I have used a satin pillowcase and have no problem with breakage. I also swear by Design essentials aloe/peppermint scalp tonic, due to my very sensitive scalp. I RINSE my hair whenever it needs it. I fight dryness by using aloe vera juice, spray leave in conditioner, and a light essential oil ( I love almond oil)! When i rinse/wash my locs i squeeze the water out and let them air dry until the next day, I never apply anything until they are fully dry because my hair holds water. After my locs are dry i lightly spritz the ends with leave in conditioner and apply oil, this keeps me from over doing it because if I apply too much oil and it gets on my scalp, it itches like crazy!
It could be the water soft or hard water depending on where you reside. I live where they have hard water it's horrible..I have to use boiled or spring/distilled
Krystin Grant Try looking into a water filter for the showerhead
this is true!!
Almost cut my Locs until I saw your videos n was like hold up
😅
Your locs are beautiful
I do protein treatments when overly stretchy also.
This video was helpful my hair has always soaked up moisture even before locs so now that I'm a year and some change in, my locs always feel dry even when I mist and oil it.
Always love watchin yr vids Really gd tips an advice I,ve mastered my "hair game" nw an it,s under control but I still love watchin yr channel
Love an Lite 💖
I spritz my hair every day and moisturise. Drink 1 litre of water every day. Eat healthy I'm a vegetarian. Hair still dry.
Can you advise please. Thank you
U can try aloe vera water and an essential oil mix and castor oil. Everyone's hair is different.
Are you using regular water?
Try rosewater or Orange blossom water.
I found orange blossom water more moisturizing.
And oil scalp lightly just once a week no more than twice. Wild Growth oil is excellent for me because it's not heavy
One liter or one gallon? A liter isn’t much water
This thumbnail was 🔥! Love the video ! Your work continues to inspire! Keep going ! 💪🏾🔥
My hair drinks water and oil like yours as well. I’ve been wetting/drenching them in the shower daily after my workout... will this cause any issues in the long run?
I don't think so. Especially if you work out often
I've been using aloe vera juice, water, and a mix of jojoba oil, coconut oil and some other essential oils together as a moisturizer and I only do it once in the morning and im busy working until the evening. But I've had some breakage over the past 6 months and my hair sucks water and oil up! Do you have any ideas or suggestions I should try?
I always look forward to your videos ❤
Thank you for sharing this. I live in Az where the water is hard. I feel like I’ve tried everything. I’ve tried rose water, wild growth oil, Aloe Vera gel spray, and Ancient Greek remedy spray. I don’t know what else to do. I have tried conditioners I spray them everyday and I drink a lot of water. 😔
I'm in Central America and the water is very hard here as well. 👩🏿🌾✨
Get a filter on your shower head.
Boil water and wash with that
Girl I am happy I found you.
Wait you tricked me...I heard the accent and felt right at home!! But it's cool great info and great vid
Hey Patrice👋🏽 Thanks for sharing this vital information with us! The hair is like a plant, so it's healthy to moisturize and water it when needed. Also we shouldn't do too much, because that's never good! At least that's what I keep in mind, to have a healthy balance and growth! 😉💌
People need to hydrate their bodies which has a direct effect on dryness.
I use conditioner on my scalp and length of my locs
I am only 9 months and my hair is fully loc’d
Bri Pretty ASMR I use conditioner as well. But only once a month.
You may also experience a lot of dryness if you are someone who color/bleaches your locs and do not have proper maintenance! Let me know in the comments, if you experience dry locs and OR what you've done to help your locs.. Love you all :)
Do you retwist you hair?
I spritz my hair with water and use 100% pure coconut oil once or twice a week. A little goes a long way :)
I wash my hair once a month
I’ve changed colors multiple times and my hair is super dry now. I always use rose water but they are still dry .i don’t know what to do now 😩
I just got my starter dreads redone on the 24 of this month and I have rose water and hair oil and I just wanted to know how often should I moisturize my dreads?
Big up my girl! Mi love to see my ppl dem a work it! 🇯🇲
*Drink Lots of Water*
Bloodclart, Jamaican accent bad😂🔥🔥
This is so helpful! Thanks for sharing 😁
I’m glad you found it helpful! Peace and blessings Queen 👏🏾✨
You are so beautiful and I love your personality 🥰🥰🥰 The last part of the video lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This was actually Very Helpful, thank yu 🤙🌺😊
You really break things down easily. Much appreciated.
I've been using aloe vera, almond oil and avocado oil and I co-wash 2t times a month. Shampoo drys my scalp out more. I want to know what I can you to help my locs be softer. Would a hot oil treatment be good for Puerto Rican Hair 🤷🏻♀️
DKM with the raw patios. 🤣🤣.
But real talk though, I can't seem to find the right products/oils for moisturizing my scalp and locks. Everything I use seem to cause my scalp to flake after about 1 week. The struggle is really, real. 😭😫
Rosewater with a couple drops of peppermint essential oil.
Thank you! I needed this for real. My girl tells me my shit crunchy lol
10 months😲 eek every other week but no twist every 3 months coconut spray especially in the summer being under the sun bring bottle mist bottle.
Subscribed in the first 10 seconds 😍🥰
Hey hey I have dry locs i been using taliah waajd healing oil also alikay naturals lemongrass leave in.. i also have a water an oil mix i made.. its been 7 weeks i have washed my hair last week and wet it 3 times this week in the shower because it so stiff. I've had my locs for 2 years.. When I go to the shop I have no problems with dryness.. I'm trying to maintain them myself but i can never get it as oiled as my stylist?.. Any suggestions?..
Do you know how low porosity loc wearers are supposed to moisturize? If I spray water and seal with oil it’s still dry. I heard heat opens up the cuticles, so does that mean that I have to incorporate heat into my routine ?
For me personally , it helps when it's a thickish oil (wild growth oil) .I also then to be heavy handed with it so it last about 2 days (if my hands were playing in my locs )
Tara Bain thanks for this!!!
Colour your hair black to balance your porosity. Then the oil and water will absorb better...
You forgot people who Color their hair .once you Color hair will be dryer and there is a need to extra condition .with products colored / damaged hair
Yeah ♥️♥️ I said that on my pinned comment
Hey how would I maintain and moisturize my starter locs? My hair is super fine and will unravel easily
I want to lock my hair but
Am thinking twice
Because I always want to do something to my hair 😣
I felt like you, and I have been locked for about 10months anyway, I was always in my hair, I did every hairstyle from here to Nigeria, lol, I'm just saying: I stayed in my hair. well, when I started my locs, I constantly retwisted, after awhile, those retwists became a chore,. now I am so used to letting my hair be, its difficult to style it, I would have never thought I would be in this place but I cant imagine going back, as I dont miss detangling and I most certainly don't miss trying out all of those products. one important beneficial thing I noticed, having locs saved me lots of money, I am thankful. I wish you well on your journay.
Thanks
Then I will lock my😚🙏
I recommend sisterlocks. They are very versatile when it comes to styling
Hey your locs are so beautiful
Yes me Gyal
The only thing that works for me is Luster’s Pink Oil Moisturizer
Castor oils, water and coconut oil
Ayyyy love the patois

How often should you wash your locs ?

Patty hey gworl ❤
Key is cut out all products with alcohol in them. That dries them out , especially shampoo with alcohol. It will brake your locs off
Do a whole video in patoi
I’m a month in and I’ve been using castor oil on my edges and grape seed oil and water for spritzing
