LOCTICIAN KHASIM

🌿 General Care for All Locks

1. Wash Regularly

   • Use a residue-free or clarifying shampoo (no heavy creams/oils that leave buildup).

   • Wash every 2–4 weeks depending on your lifestyle (sweating, dust, etc.).

2. Dry Properly

   • Always let your locks dry completely after washing to avoid mildew and odor.

   • Use a microfiber towel or sit under a hooded dryer if needed.

3. Avoid Heavy Products

   • Stay away from waxes, greases, and thick creams—they cause buildup.

   • Light oils (like jojoba, grapeseed, or rose water spritz) are good for scalp hydration.

4. Protect at Night

   • Sleep with a satin/silk scarf or bonnet to prevent frizz and lint.

5. Separate/Pop Your Locks

   • Regularly separate the roots with your fingers to stop locks from marrying (joining together).

🔗 Dreadlocks (Traditional/Freeform/Maintenance)

• Retwisting / Palm Rolling: Every 4–6 weeks (don’t overdo—it can thin roots).

• Crochet Method: Keeps locks tight and neat, less frizz. Best done by a loctician.

• Deep Clean: Do an apple cider vinegar rinse (ACV) every few months to remove buildup.

✨ Sisterlocks

• Retightening: Every 4–8 weeks by a trained Sisterlocks consultant or self-retightening if you’re certified.

• Washing: Use the Sisterlocks starter shampoo (or a lightweight clarifying shampoo) especially in the early stages.

• No Oils/Conditioners Early On: They can cause slippage. Once mature, light moisturizing sprays are okay.

• Maintenance: Be gentle—don’t over-manipulate. Sisterlocks are delicate.

🌸 Microlocks

• Retightening: Every 4–8 weeks using interlocking or palm-rolling, depending on your method.

• Moisturizing: Light misting with water + aloe or rose water helps with dryness.

• Washing: Similar to Sisterlocks, but you may have more flexibility with products since microlocks can be started with twists, braids, or coils.

✅ Extra Tips

• Don’t compare your journey—locks mature differently depending on hair type and size.

• See a professional loctician (LOCTICIAN KHASIM) at least a few times a year for a health check.

• Be patient—locks get more beautiful as they mature.
