Products to Condition Locs & Scalp Moisture

How long will it take for the dreads to lock up? How often do the dreads have to be re-twisted and with what products?

Results vary. It all depends on the products & technique.  If you are starting from a perm, chemically processed hair can take 6 months to revert back to its kinky state. I suggest cutting out the relaxer & start from scratch by growing an afro of about 2 inches in length.  Here are my product recommends to add to your hair regimen. When you begin your loc journey have patience. It is a natural phenomenon.  They will swell and sprout and puff with perpetual continuity. You should come in once a month for loc maintenance. You should expect to have your locs shampooed, conditioned and hot oiled. You should expect to be given an arsenal of information about what you need to do in those meantime in between time stages. Different textures and hair types lead to varying results but it is inevitable that your locs will manifest.  Weather is a big part to play in the longevity of the style. Humidity, dampness, etc. can cause starting locs to look puffy. You can reinforce the loc via palmrolling them with the Bornu butter.
