Stay Tuned Salon "Locs need special attention and care during the winter months. The cold weather can cause locs to feel and look dry, dull, and damaged. These are my tips to maintain healthy locs this winter and beyond. ✔1. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. •Use an oil moisturizer a few times a week.(natural oils are suggested) •Add a monthly hot oil treatment to your maintenance routine. Hot oil treatments replenish the moisture and elasticity of the hair and prevent breakage. ✔2. Wear silk/satin wraps nightly or invest in satin pillow cases. •These materials allows for the hair to “slide” as opposed to snag. Other materials can contribute to dryness. Satin bonnets really come in handy underneath your winter and wool caps. ✔3.Hydrate- Drink enough water to avoid dehydration. •Dehydration affects the skin and hair. ✔4. Avoid excessive heat. •Too much heat can be drying to the hair and ultimately lead to breakage as well. ✔5. Do wear protective styles. •This helps to cut down on excessive manipulation and tension. #staytunedtaughtya #loccare #loctherapy #smile #loveyourlocs #embraceyourjourney #positivevibes #loclivin
