Hey Healthy Locker!

The Broadcast was really fun.  Several DIYer’s submitted their pics and called in.  It made for good fun and a very informational broadcast.  I even learned a few things…go figure.  Check it out by going to the blog:

The oil sale ends tonight at 11:59 pm EST.  I’ve only had the oil discounted this much one other time during the year.  Replenish or stock up now.  Won’t see these prices again until sometime next year.

If you haven’t had the opportunity to watch my newest video on how to “Dry-Condition” your locks, you’ve got to check it out here:

The HealthyLocks System

Once on the page, scroll down to the Combo Set of the HealthyLocks Daily Conditioning Mist & the Loc Luv.  You’ll see it there.

This regimen is what has allowed my clients and me to grow long, healthy & sexy locs that are well conditioned, always moisturized, and feel and smell wonderful!   Heck, I didn’t even know “crunchy locs” existed until you guys schooled me on the broadcasts about a year ago.  I remember asking, “What the heck are crunchy locks!” …LOL!  And how about,  all the sisters with color-treated locks, who were suffering from extreme dryness, and volunteered to test my first few versions of the Ultimate mist that looked like baby spit up (and you didn’t even care! LOL!!!!)  So that’s when and why I developed the “HealthyLocks Ultimate Dry-Conditioning Formula With Goat’s Milk & Shea Butter.  Over a bit of time, it’s very effective in softening and conditioning extremely dry locs.  Newbies don’t want to come anywhere near this mist.  It’s only for extremely dry, mature and/or color-treated locks.  Stick with the the Daily mist in the “brown” bottle.

So the secret is out now.  Dry conditioning consist of any one of the mists and the Loc Luv conditioning oil, which have been conveniently combined on the site.  If you don’t get a chance to take advantage of the discounted oil this go around, …not to worry.  You can always create your own sale with the  “Combo Sets” on the product page and take advantage of savings 24/7.

For those of you who suffer from dry, irritated itchy scalp, you’ll get amazing relief from the “Ooh!” Therapeutic Scalp Serum.  It’s $5 off for the next 4 hours!

I really prefer if you order on the site, but if you’re uncomfortable with that or you’re having difficulties, then call me.  I’ll be up late.  Here’s the number:   302-836-3550

Hey Healthylockers!

Soooo Incredibly Sad!!!!!

Soooo Sad!

“Murphy’s Law” was most definitely in the house tonight!  What could go wrong – did go wrong.   I just purchased a new phone system that didn’t jive with my laptop (and I was really excited to use it too), callers couldn’t hear me, accidental hangups, delayed videos,  AND I was so thrown off, I completely forgot to save the recording of the broadcast!  But more worse than that (did I say that right?)… there were lots of first time viewers along with my largest viewing audience EVER since I started the broadcast over 18 months ago – ARGH!!!!!

So  although I’m still a bit sad that I could not share with you the pictures, videos and the topics I had planned, I’m going to double up for the next broadcast, which will be next Sunday.  There’s no way I’m going to make you wait another 2 weeks.  I also view this as a learning experience.  The lesson learned here is to always TEST new equipment BEFORE the live  broadcast. I’m getting another phone system first thing in the morning.  I just assumed that it would all work seamlessly together, but you know what is said about  assuming…it makes an AssUMe! LOL

The upside…I can always have a “Do Over”.  This time we’ll start at 8pm, which will give plenty of time for questions, answers, videos and pictures. The  Live Broadcast will be dedicated to all of you who’ve had your locs or Sisterlocks for 2 years or less. I’ll be revealing all my secrets to help you grow your new locks as healthy and carefree as possible. I’ll also discuss many of the common issues that new loc wearers will face during their first 24 months of having them. We’ll discuss, slippage, frizziness, dryness, itchy scalp, color, thinning & breakage.

Tina is back and she has worn her last wig! You first met Tina during the live broadcast that featured the topic of “Help, My Daughter Has Lice In Her Locs!” Her installation was amazing! During next week’s live broadcast, you’ll see an update video right after I completed her installation and I’ll show you how I “Dry Conditioned” her new Sisterlocks.  What is Dry Conditioning you ask?  It’s a term I coined to help explain how to keep your locs moisturized and conditioned throughout your entire lock journey.  There’s no need to condition your locks during the shampooing process.  You can “Dry Condition” anytime on your dry locs!  There is no reason why you should suffer with dry locks after watching this video! But for now, watch the video from Tina’s consultation.  You won’t find this on YouTube yet.  I’ll see her next week for her FREE retightening and will make the complete video after that.

So See you next Sunday evening at 8pm. It’ll be a good one (keeping my fingers crossed) I’ll provide the live links later in the week.

As Always…Wishing You A Happy & Nappy Hair Day!  Take Care!

Hey Healthy Lockers.

Great to be back and I appreciate your patience. Although I had another topic scheduled for the live broadcast tonight, I feel that tonight’s topic is timely and too important to put off.

lice in locs

Last week I received a semi-desperate phone call from a customer/viewer who informed me that she was on day 18 of treatment to rid her daughter and possibly herself of HEAD LICE! She wanted to know if I had any experience with them or could offer additional info on how to successfully get rid of them. Both the caller and her daughter has Sisterlocks and although she was successful in finding information online about how to get rid of lice, there was no detailed info on how to remove them from locked hair. Her only recourse was to post a question in one of the locked hair forums and to her surprise, she learned that a few locked hair sisters (who were willing to admit it and help a sistah out) had also suffered through the lice ordeal and had success in completely removing the pesky critters!

This  caller has agreed to join us live tonight and share her ordeal.  Hope you can make it. (Someone, anyone…please remind me to record!!!)

After the broadcast tonight, I’ll be posting a few videos and links to really good info I found on line and hopefully will be able to add to this list from info provided by my broadcast viewers.

See you tonight at 9pm EST/ 8pm CST/ 7pm MST/ 6pm PST

It was a great broadcast.  After discussing the lice, I showed a video of lock breakage and a new client during her consultation.  She was such a good sport.  She took off her wig!

I’ll post additional links tomorrow…I’m too tired.  Good Night!  Thanks for joining me on the broadcast.

 Hair Locking Secrets Revealed…

OMG!!!…A 2 hour broadcast?!

Over 70 live die-hard viewers stayed to the very end.  If this live broadcast was a book, it would be a ‘page turner’.  

I didn’t give anything away; I didn’t have a sale and no special guest was invited.  Actually, I did have special guests – all the wonderful viewers who called in and asked their most pressing questions about their locks. 

Lots of ‘Loc Secrets’ were revealed in this broadcast, so it would behoove you to watch it as soon as possible. 

Oh my, and just when you think you can’t watch anymore…you’re mesmerized by the "Before and After" pictures at the very end.  You don’t even want to blink.  You’ll witness incredible "Before and After" pics of my client’s locs from installation day to 2-4 years down the road.  The transformations are absolutely amazing!

So get to a quiet relaxing place,  get out the tea and crackers or just let the broadcast play in the background, but make sure you have pencil and paper to take notes, because a lot of nuggets were dropped and many of the Video Locktician’s "Secrets To Healthy, Long & Stylable Locks" were revealed – I’m not kidding…this was good stuff!

A big "Thank You" to everyone who called in…It’s you who made this broadcast sooo special. 

Here’s the info for the REPLAY of the LIVE BROADCAST.

Hey Healthy Lockers!

About a year ago, I shared with you my first instructional video featuring "Springlocks".  The Springlocks curling technique was shown on one of my clients, Antoinette, who had Sisterlocks and was a huge hit on YouTube (before they took it down for whatever reason). I’ve put up another version of it since.

The main question I get is can the SpringLocks be done on larger locs or traditional locks…and the answer is absolutely YES!  I just completed two new videos about the Springlocks in traditional locs.  Part 1, which features my sister, Robin, from North Carolina, is good to watch because it shows how I prepared her "neglected" locks before curling her locks.  It’s fun to watch, because we got that sister banter going on. You would never think that the Video Locktician would have a sister who does the total opposite of what I teach my clients and how I care for my own hair…but that’s family and Robin’s locks do clean up well.  So I’ve always said, do what works best for you and your locks…and Robin does that.  I love that girl!

Part 2 features the amazing results of Robin and another friend and client of mine, Roz..  Roz’s entire loc journey is on my laptop and will be featured in my first Ebook on how to lock hair. 

I tell you what…I don’t know what it is about the Springlocks, but I”ve done three videos featuring this technique and in all of them, you definitely see the "SEXY" transformation in the personality and the confidence that comes along with wearing the SpringLocks.  Don’t take my word for it.  Check it out yourself!

Hey Healthy Lockers.

Hey Gang…Here’s The New Updated Video!  Enjoy.

I’m really excited to share this video with you.  It’s not on YOUTUBE yet because it’s too long, but I wanted you to have the opportunity to see it in it’s entirety and without the distracting commercials on the LiveStream/Broadcast channel.  However, still check out the  replay of the live broadcast, because the chat session directly after the video was terrific.  Lots of great questions were asked and many useful tips were shared.  I’ll be coming back later to populate this post with the actual pictures that you see me taking during the video , along with some great feedback I continue to get from all of you.

My hope is that this video will give you some inspiration if you have very long locks and have been sitting on the fence about cutting your Sisterlocks or cutting your locs.  You’ll get some great tips on cutting locks just by watching the video.  ENJOY!!!

The next video is a live broadcasts that reveals my new haircut in the Springlocks.  I absolutely loved it!  You’ll see me wearing my new cut in the SpringLocks; I show the hair cutting video during the broadcast (which you can fast forward through) and then I show my hair in the SpringLocks Twist Out…Super Fab-U-Lous!!!  This was a great broadcast and the viewers had many questions… You gotta see!

This post is in response to a question I received from a reader with newly installed Sisterlocks.  She wanted to know if she could start roller setting her new locks.  I decided to make a post and respond to her question here so that more readers can benefit from the answer I gave her.  You can read it below.

*************************************************

Hi Darlene.  The only time I ” roller set” the Sisterlocks is after the initial installation and only if the locks are straight.  Some of my clients have very coily,  highly textured hair and require no roller setting after the initial installation.  I then encourage my clients not to do too much additional styling during the first several months so that the locks have a chance to settle. 

Over the next several weeks your new Sisterlocks will change in their appearance.  They will loosen and “draw up” giving a shorter appearance to your locks.  Your hair will become more full and your parts will be less noticeable (until your next re-tightening).  Your locks may develop little spirally ringlets on the very tips and overall your locks will be more “fluffy”.  This is normal.  But, if you continuously style, by roller setting, plaiting, twisting, pulling it  back, or any type of additional styling, you may be stressing the locks and hindering the locking process.   It’s best to leave your new Sisterlocks alone doing the least amount of styling as possible.  When you’re manipulating your new Sisterlocks to obtain a style, you’re pulling and stretching at the lock that should be in a natural “contracting” stage, which is a stage that occurs before the hair starts to mesh together to lock.

So in a nutshell…less is more when it comes to your new Sisterlocks.  Enjoy them at this stage and allow them to develop so that you will have healthy, uniform and consistent looking Sisterlocks down the road.

Just a little side note…hair that is highly textured, kinky and coily – You know, the good ol’ “nappy” hair, can withstand more styling early on than hair that is smoother and softer in texture.  I have a few clients that have been able to curl and style their hair from day one.  I also have one client that comes to mind who suffers from major slippage because of the smooth, silky texture of her hair.  Click here to read her story

It has been my experience, however,  that the more you  manipulate your new Sisterlocks, the more slippage, unraveling and stretching of the locks will occur and you don’t want your locktician upset with you, especially when she’s already in you head for hours:)  Great question, Darlene.  Have a great hair day!
