Loc Maintenance

Loc Maintenance Service:

Cleanse:

1. Frequency: Wash locs regularly, typically every 1-2 weeks, depending on your hair type and lifestyle.

2. Shampoo: Use a residue-free shampoo to prevent buildup within the locs.

3. Thorough Rinsing: Ensure all shampoo is thoroughly rinsed out to avoid residue.

Dry:

1. Air Drying: Allow locs to air dry completely to prevent mildew and odors. This may take several hours.

2. Towel Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water with a microfiber towel or an old t-shirt to reduce frizz.

Retwist:

1. Frequency: Retwist locs every 4-6 weeks to maintain neatness and prevent matting at the roots.

2. Technique: Use a light locking gel or oil to retwist, ensuring not to over-tighten to avoid tension on the scalp.

Condition:

1. Moisturizing: Regularly moisturize locs with light oils such as jojoba or coconut oil to prevent dryness and breakage.

2. Deep Conditioning: Occasionally use a deep conditioning treatment to keep locs soft and healthy.

Maintenance:

1. Loc Grooming: Separate locs at the roots to prevent them from growing together.

2. Trimming: Occasionally trim loose hairs or frizzy ends to maintain a neat appearance.
