Day 1- "Little Lady Loc Lover- LLLL" wash day 12/28/14

Here's to day 1...yay!!! We had fun & we know it's more where that came from. This is only the beginning! Lani πŸ’œ was awesome as usual, as she got all dolled up. She really loves her locs & gets excited when she notices that she gained length. Check out the process. Click on link now for video.


Little Lady Loc Lover loc butter in the making...ingredients: mango butter, EVOO,honey, coconut oil, vegetable glycerin, apricot oil, wild root, lemongrass EO, Ylang Ylang EO, Sweet basil EO, rosemary EO.



Lani πŸ’œ before wash process. Ready, set, go....



Step 1: rinse locs for at least 5 minutes with warm water to help lift embedded dirt & lint, then apply Aunt Jackies "Heads up" moisturizing and softening shampoo



Aunt Jackies "Heads up" moisturizing and softening shampoo smells great with a smooth, thick, rich creaminess.



Step 2: lather up... This shampoo lathers real well, not much is required. 




Step 3: Rinse, rinse , rinse...




Step 4: after washing with Aunt Jackies "Heads up" moisturizing and softening shampoo then conditioning with Jason's Restorative Biotin, towel blot hair.




Step 5: gather items needed to begin loc maintenance process... Small clips for holding loc roots while drying, big clamps for keeping excess hair out of the way, towel for wiping drips, Shea Moisture kids hibiscus & coconut extra- moisturing detangler, & our own "LLLL" loc butter




Step 6: spray Shea Moisture kids hibiscus & coconut extra- moisturing detangler to locs. This spray has great coverage and not a lot is needed to be sprayed. Great as leave in conditioner. Smells great too!




Step 7: gather hair up and out of way. Separate a small section to begin working with.




Step 8: take 1 loc at a time, smooth down stray hairs while applying the loc butter to root.




Step 9: Palm roll the loc after applying loc butter to root and use small clip to hold loc in place while drying.




Step 10: allow locs to dry with clips still in before manipulating them. Air drying or heat drying is appropriate. I chose air drying because I've never used heat on LaniπŸ’œ locs. I'm sure one day I'll invest in a hood dryer as an investment for days we don't have time for air drying. πŸ’¨πŸ’¨




Step 11: after locs dry, take out clips, oil scalp, style &  pin into place.




Step 12: finger part locs so that twisting up to side looks uniform with same size parts & twist. 




 Finished look!!! LaniπŸ’œ did great & represented for Little Lady Loc LoverπŸ‘‘
