How to Shampoo Starter Locs

Maintaining Traditional Locs at home is fairly easy, if you know what you're doing and practice good hair care. One area the many people fear or aren't very knowledgeable on when it comes to starting locs is the "shampoo process". Admittedly, I was a novice myself when I first started my new set of Traditional Locs and before I took specific "Loc Care" training classes.

[Tutorial] Twisted Nerfertiti Headwrap

This is a quick and very easy headwrap to achieve, with or without, a lot of hair. The "Nerfertiti Headwrap" is created using only two pieces of fabric (1 yard minimum each) and shaped to create a high crown similar to Queen Nefertifi. I added my own spin on it by adding a hair accessory.

Yes, Traditional Locs and protective styles like Twists or Braids do need to be moisturized to maintain the health of the hair. I've noticed though that a lot of people don't know the proper way to moisturize their hair, let alone what moisture is, so I created a quick video [HERE] with a few tips.

[Tutorial] Pin Curls Hairstyle!



This style is really simple to achieve and will result is a head full of loose curls after you take it down. Another great 2 in 1 style! This style is also great for new Sisterlocks because it does not pull on the hair or cause slippage. 

If you give it a try, post pictures on the CurlyNuGrowth Wall [HERE]

Pipe Cleaners Set Tutorial


I achieved this curly set by using Pipe Cleaners (yes the things we used to play with as a kid) and I must say, 3rd time is a charm. My previous experiences with Pipe Cleaners [HERE] weren't that pleasant, even though they always produce nice curls I'd lose so much hair. But this time around, none of the Pipe Cleaners got stuck and needed to be ripped from my head, YAY!
