Tips, trends, and inspiration for your loc journey
Summer is a wonderful time for fun, sun, and showing off your beautiful locs! But with the heat, humidity, and outdoor activities, your locs need a little extra love. Here’s how to keep them healthy, hydrated, and looking fabulous all summer long.
The sun can dry out your locs quickly. Use a water-based leave-in spray or mist your locs daily to keep them moisturized. Don’t forget your scalp!
UV rays can weaken hair and fade color. Wear a stylish hat, scarf, or headwrap when you’re out in the sun for extended periods.
Chlorine and salt water can be harsh on locs. Before swimming, wet your locs with clean water and apply a light oil or leave-in conditioner. After swimming, rinse thoroughly and cleanse as soon as possible.
Sweat and product buildup are more common in summer. Cleanse your scalp regularly with a gentle, residue-free shampoo to prevent itchiness and irritation.
Heavy creams and gels can cause buildup in the heat. Opt for lightweight oils and sprays to keep your locs fresh and bouncy.
Sleep with a satin or silk scarf/bonnet to reduce frizz and retain moisture. Satin pillowcases are also a great option.
