Whether you have real or fake locs, you oughta take care of them.
Taking care of dreadlocks can be really simple and only requires a few steps.
According toCarol’s Daughter, the first step is to always oil your scalp.
This is not optional.
Not oiling your scalp lead to breakage and slow (or even nonexistent) hair growth.
Keeping your hair moisturized will cause buildup over time, so it’s important to wash your hair.
All Things Hair suggests cleaning the oil and dirt from your hair with a gentle shampoo.
A satin scarf or silky bonnet will help prevent breakage.
Per Carol’s Daughter, you only need to use an oil-infused twisting cream to retwist each strand.
All Things Hairalso cautions not to retwist too often.
The site recommends wearing protective loc hairstyles to prevent the need to retwist as much.
Lastly, after retwisting your dreadlocks, slick down your edges with some gel.
After all, a look is never complete without slicked-downbaby hairs.
