Here's a video of me 2 months after i started my lock journey. Haven't had a re-twist in about a week and a half so its starting to look a little rough but not too bad. If u have any questions feel free to ask! also at the end of the video there are some before and after pictures of my hair before the re-twist and after

Our Routine

Robyn

On Sundays I wash with Bioinfusions Olive Oil shampoo (sulfate free). I then deep condition using Bioinfusions deep conditioner. I let sit on my head for an hour (while I clean). After I rinse it out, I put a little coconut oil (or olive oil), I braid (or twist) it wet , put my satin bonnet on and go to sleep.

I cowash (wash with conditioner) about twice a week using Herbal Essence Totally Twisted conditioner.

Every morning all I do is rewet my hair and throw in some 100% coconut oil.

all the products I use can be found at Walgreens

My routine is pretty simple. I only use two products for my locks (dont want to risk a bunch of build-up). I use Santa Cruz organic lemon juice (can be found at Ultra Foods) for a little under $5) and a moisturizer called "Nature's Blessings". I spray the lemon juice in my hair twice a day, usually after I'm out of the shower and a few hours before I go to bed. (lemon juice helps the locks stay tighter and it helps the hair to lock faster). I only use the moisturizer maybe twice during the 4 week period because it keeps the hair pretty moist and I dont want to overdo it!
