Here's what I've been using lately......
1. After hearing and reading others reviews on Nizoral I decided to try it out for myself. It's absolutely friggin amazing for those who have dry scalp. I thought I was destined to forever see flakes in my hair, even right after shampooing. I use it once a week and it works like a charm!
2. ACV is a girls best friend! Not just for balancing your PH but for deep cleaning your scalp & hair. I've started spraying diluted ACV in my hair after shampooing and conditioning and rinsing thoroughly.
3. Conditioner is a neccessity. Nizoral is a strong product and I can only imagine how harsh it is on my hair, which is why I use the Nizoral on my scalp only and conditioner on my locs. I'm currently using Oyin's Honey Hemp Conditioner. I'm not to gung-ho on the smell myself, it reminds me of the flintstone vitamins I took when I was little. With that being said, it's an amazing conditioner and leaves my locs very soft.
4. I don't know how longed locd people let their hair air dry. When I air dry my hair the locs at the nape of my neck have this smell that I absolutely hate. Now Lando & my Consultant both tell me it's not stinky but I can't stand it.
So first I try to wrench my hair out as much as I can. I then, use a Turbe Twist towel and a Shamwow. Depending on how much time I have I may blow dry for 5 to 10 minutes on medium heat. Granted, my hair is still slightly damp when done but this seems to be the only way I can combat that pesky smell. Maybe when the hotter days come I'll be more likely to air dry. The office I work in can get pretty warm/humid at times, which I'm sure doesn't aid in the drying process. If anyone has any advice on this one please please please leave a comment.
5. Lastly, I've recently discovered my hair does just fine without oil. It's crazy cause yall know I've been living off eo combos with almond or jojoba or olive oils forever. Now I'm only using Greg Juice every other day. I never in a million years thought I'd only be using a single product in my hair....
