About Locs of Luv

I love meeting individuals who've decided that they're ready to embark upon their natural hair journey. I've worn Sisterlocks now for close to seventeen years and have loved every minute of it. As a result of the freedom and fulfillment I experienced wearing my hair in Sisterlocks I decided to become a Certified Sisterlocks Consultants. As a Certified Sisterlocks Consultant I educate and assist those who're interested in the Sisterlocks approach to natural hair. I'm also a Lilla Rose, being an Independent Lilla Rose Consultant enables me to share not only beautiful hair jewelry that works wonderfully in our natural tresses but I'm also able to introduce interested clients to a wonderful business opportunity. I see what I do as a ministry to those whom I'm blessed to work with. It's my desire that this blog page serves as inspiration to those seeking to embrace their natural hair and learn more about the Sisterlocks Lifestyle as well as other matters pertaining to natural hair. Be sure to follow and share my blog with your friends and other natural hair enthusiasts.

Tips On Transitioning Into Sisterlocks With Protective Hairstyles

Sisterlocks® Lifestyle

20190522_095710Instead of focusing on the usual protective hairstyles like weaves and wigs, why not try these following styles…

  • WASH-AND-GOS: This style can be done several ways, but the most basic way to accomplish this style is to wash and condition your hair and detangle it thoroughly before styling. Once done, a moisturizing conditioner or leave-in or moisturizer can be used depending on your preference. A styler or gel can be layered on top for added hold if necessary. To ensure that you keep your hair healthy while it is styled, make sure you moisturize your hair as much as it needs it.
  • TWIST/BRAID OUTS: This style can be done on freshly cleansed hair or dry hair that has been stretched for added length and volume. After moisturizing, apply your styler of choice and separate your hair into sections and twist or braid it. For added interest, you could put the ends of your hair or the entire length itself on rollers. Once your hair is completely dry, or after some time has passed, unravel and separate the twists gently to hide the parts and increase the volume. The best part about these styles is that you do not need to rewet your hair to restyle. To make the hair pliable enough to detangle, you can either spray it with water or add a good detangling product, then add a styler if necessary and restyle. Also, to maintain your hair’s health, make sure you moisturize and seal your hair, especially at the ends.
  • Wrap it Up! Experiment with hair wraps, there are many tutorials available that will keep you looking fabulous as you prepare to make that transition to Sisterlocks.

Locks Loops & Soft Spikes

Sheltering In…In Style

 Lock Loops and Soft Spikes curlers are great styling tools, the results are beautiful, the curlers are quite similar with one notable exception, the Lock Loops have ridges that hold the curler in place. To use I dampen my hair slightly with water, roll the hair onto the curlers and let dry. For tighter curls use smaller amounts of hair and leave the curlers in longer. Lock Loops and Soft Spikes work well with short to medium length hair.
