Welcome. How are you thinking of growing locks? They can't be gotten. Locks take time to grow. There's no way to speed it up. On average, locks take a full year to mature
That's why I was saying there are things you can use to moisturize your hair. Jojoba oil is really close to the same kind of oil your scalp naturally produces. There's no reason to wash less often. If you used jojoba oil after each wash, you could wash at least once a week, and your hair would be so much cleaner and lock up so much faster.
That loose hair in front would start to lock up in no time
welcome but u dont want to be doing aall that 1 no stocking caps thats silly 2 nothing to 'hold" 3 wash wash wash washing helps dreads dread wash 2 times a week 3 dont finger roll just leave em alone dont twist i cant stress that 1 enough never retwist
wash all that gunk out the root stimulater stuff u want clean hair nothing else and when u moistirize use something lighter then olive oil olive oils too thick too slippery too hard to wash out
aloe or jojobas better and you want to use only enough to keep it from being too dry if u use alot your malp[king the hair too slippery to stay locked
the more you wash the faster it locks the more gunk you put in the longer its going to take
that stuff your using will turn your black hair grey noit from aging it just from the build up u want none of that at all
I forgot to add that locks need to come unraveled a bit before they mature. All locks do it. It's not unhealthy. It's needed. Locks need to tangle in the pattern they are most comfortable with. Forcing it to happen a certain way only causes damage
The only difference with black hair is that it's textureddifferentand needs more conditioning. It doesn't stay cleaner longer. It gets dirty just as fast as every other hair type.
You can use pure aloe, cocnut oil, or jojoba oil to keep it conditioned and from drying out. It should still be washed more than once a month. All hair should be washed more often. Maybe not every day like some people think. But 2-3 times a week is best for every hair type. Just because it doesn't smell bad doesn't mean it's clean.
As for retwisting, do it more than 2-4 times a year is still too much. Every time it's retwisted, it rips out some hair which thins out your roots and causes your locks to think out and get weaker. They can, in time, get twsited enough that they fall off. This is a while off, but it happens more than you'd think.
Welcome. But you should be washing your hair way way more often. 2-3 times a week is best. Clean hair locks up faster and better. Plus you don't need to wear a stocking. That will prevent your scalp from getting as clean as it can. You never need to wash your hair directly. You need to keep you scalp clean. As you rinse, the soap will run through your hair, cleaning it out.
I'm not sure if by "rolling your hair", you mean retwisting it? If so, stop. Retwisting your hair causes too much torque on your roots and scalp and leads to a condition called Traction Alopecia. This leads directly to baldness. You should never see scalp showing in between your sections.
That's why I was saying there are things you can use to moisturize your hair. Jojoba oil is really close to the same kind of oil your scalp naturally produces. There's no reason to wash less often.
