How to Make Your Locs Look Better | Daily Hacks for ATTRACTIVE HEALTHY LOCS (Starters, Dreads, Etc.)

[@HolisticJay_18]

1. Hydrate your locs 2. Cover head at night or be mindful of which pillow case you use 3. Keep your hair as lint free as possible 4. Don't wear tight styles with your locs/ watch your health 5. Drink enough water I gotta say, the color is growing on me more and more. Gloria did an amazing job. And congrats on your 1 year anniversary 🥳🥳🥳

[@AlexisHarris]

Awww!!!! Thanks so much for being here and for playing along!!! 😍😍😍 you’re the best, Aj 🥳

[@codymartin4162]

😂i thought the third one was to lint roll your locs to keep dust off

[@86Kera]

I’m here 2 years later almost at the end of my 2 year loc journey and that statement about not liking/loving your dreads everyday is so true! That color is really pretty.

[@AlexisHarris]

Thank you 🥰🫶🏾 and thanks so much for being here!!!

[@kendra506]

1. Hydration and sealing it in 2. Scarf or bonnet or durag at night 3. Keep hair free of lint by using the lint roller 4. Don’t put excessive tension on roots (this one was hard lol) 5. Drink water for overall healthier hair Great video 🥰

Hint number 4 threw me off the guessing game but let let me try: 1. Keep hair moisturized, 2. Cover locs every time you lay down, 3. Remove lint as soon as you can, pain medicine I'm not even going to try 😂, 5. Drink as much water as you can to keep hydrated

@@AlexisHarris hi Alexis.. for the first tip, are you supposed to mix the oil with the water before you spray on the hair? BTW you are beautiful and you have got beautiful locs too. 💖💖😊

[@janebagley2147]

All of those items for me mean to trust the process. Keep your hair moisturized, keep it protected at night, keep it lint free, no stressing and stay hydrated. I will comment later after I view the rest of the video.

Beautiful!!!! Thanks for playing along 😍😍😍

[@holisticflo]

I think all of the hints have to do with keeping your hair moisturized, the silk pillowcase can help keep your hair at night instead of a cotton one and drinking water hydrates you from the inside out. Im not sure what the pain meds are for lol.

[@AlexisHarris]

Lol! Hey love 😍😍😍 so happy you played along!!!!! Thanks for being here

[@chevynorfleet561]

I've tried the whole rose water mist and oil combination and I still get that "dread rot" smell, so therefore, I just simply oil my scalp when necessary

[@AlexisHarris]

Got you! 💖 How’s the oil working by itself? It’s so funny that you mention that because I thought about starting that approach today.

[@chevynorfleet561]

@@AlexisHarris "the oil only" method actually is better than me misting my locz. It prevents my scalp from itching big time and of course, no dread rot odor. I typically use organic, cold-pressed oils

1. Moisturize your locs/scalp with water yhen seal with oil 2. Sleep on a silk/satin pillowcase 3. Use a lint roller to gently remove any lint that got into your locs 4. If yoy get headaches from a tight retwist, take the pain meds to keep from touching the locs themselves 5. Drink plenty of water to hydrate your hiar/scalp from the "inside"

[@woodah08]

[@sheikatraughber1334]

Do you mix oil and water together in spray bottle

[@AlexisHarris]

Great question! I personally keep my water and oil separate but my mom mixes hers. The only thing I keep in my spray bottle is water and I apply the oil after I spray the water on my hair to seal in the moisture. But it’s totally up to you!

Hey Alexis! I'm new to the locs journey just a quick question my two twist is now 3weeks nw I wash it last week and some of my hair are pull out what should I do because the middle is very very short and everyday I spray water in it, it still pull out but I'm not giving up because it so much cheap by the way I'm in love your locs and can't wait till mines reach to your level.

[@AlexisHarris]

Heyyy Vanessa!!! Thank you so much for being here and leaving some love. Congratulations on your new journey! I’m so excited for you. It sounds like you are dealing with hair unraveling, is that right? When my locs unraveled in the early stages, I would just re-twist them or wrap around the loose pieces. There’s also an instant loc tool that you can use to stuff the loose pieces back into the loc strand. I would wait until your locks mature a little bit more though before starting that or trying that tool. I hope this helps! Keep me posted 💖
