Dr. Locs offers a range of products that provide comprehensive care from start to finish. Each product is designed to work harmoniously to keep your locs healthy, clean, and well-maintained. Here's a breakdown of the original Dr. Locs product line, and how you can benefit from each item.
1. Pre Cleanse: The First Step to Clean, Buildup-Free Locs
The Dr. Locs journey begins with the Pre Cleanse, which is specifically formulated to make the washing process easier and more effective. This powerful product breaks down heavy buildup that you can see on your locs or at your roots.
How It Works:
- Application: wet your locs, then spray the Pre Cleanse in areas where you see visible buildup, or spray it throughout your locs.
- Hidden Buildup: Often, buildup is not always visible. Spray the Pre Cleanse from root to tip and, as you run water over your locs, you’ll start to see the buildup rise to the surface.
- Process: This step can make things look worse before they get better, as the buildup comes to the surface. Don’t worry! The Pre Cleanse naturally pulls it all up, making the shampooing process more effective. You may need to repeat the rinse a few times for optimal results, but once you do, your locs will be ready for the next step.
2. Yasin Shampoo: Deep Cleaning Without the Harsh Chemicals
Once you’ve prepped your locs with the Pre Cleanse, it’s time to follow up with the Yasin Shampoo. This shampoo is perfect for getting rid of flakes, buildup, and residue from your locs.
How It Works:
- Application: After dampening your hair, apply the Yasin Shampoo. It thoroughly cleanses your locs, neutralizes any odors, and removes buildup that can negatively affect your locs.
- Deep Clean: For those who have been around dirt or smoky environments, the Yasin Shampoo is ideal for neutralizing the effects.
- Multi-Wash: Depending on the level of buildup, you may need to wash multiple times (three or more). The product will effectively cleanse your locs with each wash. Focus on your roots and ends, as these areas tend to accumulate buildup.
Tip: If you see your locs turning white after applying the shampoo, don’t worry—it’s just pulling all the buildup up. Repeat the process as necessary until your locs are completely clean.
3. Jinan Moisture Mix: Daily Moisturizer for Soft, Hydrated Locs
After cleaning your locs, it’s time to restore moisture. The Jinan Moisture Mix is a lightweight, impactful daily moisturizer that hydrates your locs without leaving them greasy.
How It Works:
- Application: Spray the Jinan Moisture Mix throughout your locs and roots after towel drying your hair. Massage it into your scalp to distribute the moisture evenly.
- Benefits: This daily spray is designed to provide moisture without weighing down your locs. It’s perfect for regular use, keeping your locs nourished, hydrated, and soft.
- Use as Needed: You can spray this moisture mix as often as you need throughout the week to maintain the right level of hydration.
4. Imani Locking Spray: Hold Without the Harsh Ingredients
To keep your locs intact and secure, the Imani Locking Spray is the perfect addition to your maintenance routine. It helps provide hold to your locs without relying on alcohol or heavy, damaging ingredients.
How It Works:
- Application: Section off your hair and spray the Imani Locking Spray into each section to lock in the style. You can also use it after twisting stray hairs into your interlocked locs to ensure they stay in place.
- Benefits: The Imani Locking Spray provides hold without being harsh on your locs. It activates under the dryer, giving you long-lasting hold. Air drying is an option, though it will take longer.
- Perfect Pairing: For best results, pair it with the Jinan Moisture Mix. This combination ensures your locs stay hydrated and held in place.
5. Yaya Oil: A Customer Favorite for Shine and Growth
The Yaya Oil is one of Dr. Locs’ most beloved products. This versatile oil is not only great for your locs but can also be used as a body oil, making it a multi-purpose product that delivers soft, nourished skin and hair.
How It Works:
- Application: After your hair is completely dry, apply the Yaya Oil to your locs for a shiny, healthy finish. It can also be used on your skin for a soft, non-oily glow.
- Benefits: The Yaya Oil is known for its ability to promote healthy hair growth. Many users have reported that it helps with regrowing edges and revitalizing thinning areas. Focus on problem spots where hair growth is slow.
- How Often to Use: While this oil is impactful, it doesn’t need to be applied every day. Use it a few times a week or as necessary to achieve the best results.
