Maintaining your locs keeps them healthy, neat, and thriving. Here’s how to care for them:
1️⃣ Regular Washing
– Frequency: Every 2–4 weeks depending on your scalp and lifestyle.
– Use a residue-free shampoo to avoid buildup.
– Keep your scalp clean to encourage healthy growth.
2️⃣ Retwisting or Palm Rolling
– Recommended every 4–8 weeks to maintain neat roots without causing tension.
– Avoid over-retwisting to prevent thinning or breakage.
3️⃣ Moisturize Consistently
– Locs need moisture to stay soft and healthy.
– Use a light water-based spray or rosewater to mist your locs regularly.
– Seal in moisture with light oils (jojoba, grapeseed, or a custom Chindo Locs oil blend if you retail it).
4️⃣ Protect at Night
– Sleep with a satin or silk bonnet, scarf, or pillowcase to reduce frizz and breakage.
– Keep locs tied up in a loose pineapple or braid if they are long.
5️⃣ Avoid Heavy Products
– Avoid waxes or heavy creams that cause buildup.
– Choose light gels or natural aloe for retwisting if needed.
6️⃣ Deep Cleanse Periodically
– Every few months, consider a deep cleanse or ACV rinse to remove buildup and refresh your locs.
