Starter locs

 

What is our locking method?

We invented a unique method for loc maintenance that does not use any hair product. This method has only practiced by our family for over 40 years. Even though there are many methods for maintaining locs, we have discovered that this is not conducive to hair growth. Our method is tried and tested, and is exceptional for locs and the growth of your hair without pulling it.  We don’t use any grease or wax, hook needle, rubber bands, no palm rolling, no twisting, no braiding, no interlocking and no pulling. This is because it doesn’t help your hair to grow.

Deep Cleaning Scalp Scrub

 

After the advice, you will need the Deep Cleaning Scalp Scrub (DCS). The scrub is needed if you suffer from hair loss, a flaky or itchy scalp or other hair and scalp disorders.
