Just like I have goals for my life in general, I’ve been contemplating some hair goals of my own as well. I’ve had locs since 2013 (for details on that, just peruse my #ConfessionsOfALocdGoddess hashtag) and I’ve done pretty well as far as maintaining them myself with little to no time in a salon. I plan on continuing that; and with that comes more research on the best ways to care for my locs on my own.
I’ve come up with a few things I want to try that I haven’t done much of before, or things that I should have been doing, but will begin to make apart of my daily/weekly/monthly routine. Here’s what I’ve got so far:
- Do a purge of all my old products and see what I will keep or toss
- Do an ACV/baking soda soak every month
- Vitamins to promote healthy hair growth
- Learn more styles for locs
- Create my own personal mixture of oil to keep in my hair (one that is catered specifically to my hair)
- Deep condition every 2 weeks
Seems fairly simple, huh? I know. Hopefully I can keep this up and by the end of 2017, who knows what this hair will look like 🙂
