Do you brush your locs? If so, what type of brush are you using?
Soft
Yes
Sofe
Yep! I only brush after my shampoo to help distribute oil through my hair. I use a soft boar bristle brush.
I'm thinking of starting gentle dry brushing weekly to help make sure lint doesn't embed now that my locs are shoulder length.
Soft boar bristle brush when i do brush.
I definitely brush my locs... started about 8 months in my loc journey I use my boar bristle brush after I shower and my locs are moist. It has definitely helped with lint and frizz and growth I'm 17 months in... I immediately saw a difference.
I AM SOOOO glad I found this channel !!! I’m almost 2 years in and every other month after my first year I was ready to comb mine outttt!!! I just started CONSISTENTLY abiding by my wash schedule bc I have seen a major difference. I was scared of PB and did two detoxes BuT what I learned from you was it could be the oil bc that helped me sooo much now I feel better about them….thank you oh I’m about to get a brush too bc I am a dog groomer and sometimes I don’t cover my locs and I don’t want that PB either
I really appreciate this video. I just discovered some lint in my back row locs 😞! I thought I was doing a good job. Only 5 months in but maybe brushing will help🙏🏿! Thanks for sharing this great information ❤️!
You’re always giving us great information, keeping us moving with mindful intentions to always have the best results !
I have not brushed my locs but will start after watching this video. Thank you so much 💖🙌🏽
Thank you for watching!!
I am becoming a cosmetologist and studying and going to school to get my License so this video is very helpful for me and the fact I have locs too
I love that u talk about this, i dry shake & brush my hair in the shower. 11 years loc and my hair look great, i mostly focus on the 2 back rows where i get the most buildup cause i refuse to use satin pillow case.lol... Great video.
Yes Selena idk why that back row is so problematic but I definitely focus there too!! Thank you for watching!
I just love and appreciate you for this video!!! My baby girls locs are going to be so greatful! 🙏🏾 And I'm starting my loc journey and I'm so excited to see more of your vids queen
Thanks for watching! ❤️
love ya girl because you always speak beauty self love and truth,. Thank you. peace and blessings
Thanks again, Joceyln!

I'm restarting my loc journey, but I did brush my mature locs. I was 3 years in.
Do a lint check before bed and when u get up . Also check your scarves and bonnets for lint on the inside . You’ll be surprised that sometimes there’s lint in them smh
Great tips!!!
Helpful information. Thank you
Thank you so informative!
Thanks for this info girl ,every morning I brush my locks am just afraid of lints period
YES! I am allergic to lint as well lol
I didn't loc my hair to be doing this lol
Hahaha ikr
Then don’t.
@@juliaelaine3326 don't know what a joke is?
Lmaooo 😂
😂
I have had my locs for 9yrs, I used to brush them regularly but stopped cause I remember another youtuber saying it was bad. But recently I've taken it back up again and I must say I find it very therapeutic when I brush my locs. I am currently using a soft boar brush which works well with my hair type.😊
What’s you’re hair type ?
@@zyverre I'm gonna be honest with you I have no idea🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️. I just know I just know what works for it.
Hey Jocelyn, I’m 18 months in now, I started out with long gray hair, that’s a mixture of straight/loose curls, needless to say my locs are very frizzy. I find it frustrating, because to me, my hair always looks like I need a retwist. I’m going to wash my hair tomorrow, so I’ll brush my locs beforehand. Thanks for all the good information you’ve passed on (I had a consultation with you back in March) to me. I enjoy learning so much from you!
Did brushing help your loc
I do! And I use a soft bristle brush encased in a very lovely wood 😉
That sounds very lovely! lol
My locs are 15 months and some of the locs in the front have not budded at the ends. Should I be brushing before a retwist or weekly ???
Is it okay to brush your locs while they are in a style?
For example : Two strand twist style
@thedigitalloctician Do you still sell brushes? If not, do you know where I could get a nice double-sided one like what you have in the video?
Also, I just passed being 5 years loc'd. 🎉 I'm looking forward to many more years.
Does it remove the short & frizzy in our locs?
I think I brushed my last three times since I had them out of since 2009
Do it help with shedding also
I have had my locs for 16 years. I have been retwisting too often and my locs are way super thin. What would you recommend for making them fuzzier/fluffier?
My Sisterlocks journey has been amazing! Many ups and downs and lessons learned as well, but I’ve been struggling with lint and product buildup for awhile now. My 7yr. anniversary is right around the corner and I am in awe of my growth! Anyway, The back of my head and nape area is where I have the most trouble with. I’ve tried any and everything to remove it. Recently I’ve done an ACV Rinse and Chileeee buildup GONE, but lint? I caught pure hell. Any suggestions on an easier method of getting it out? I’m scared of over washing my locs as well as damaging them.
Dye your hair a dark shade . That's what I do now because I use to pick them out and it easy causing micro damage that I now see . You can pick it when it's on the surface but once it's deeper just leave it be and dye your hair once or twice a year . Just my two cents :)
Dawn dish soap will get rid of that build up
for starter locs you stated that we should brush our locs before shampooing. Should wet them before we brush & shampoo?
What if my son has had his since two? There sis much lint in his hair 🤦🏽♀️ idk what to do!
Is there any possibility of thinning later down the line from brushing your locs?
This is what I’m wondering too
This
Good question
My locs started as two strand twists, is it okay to brush them? Will it change the shape of my locs?
No it should not change the shape of your locs. If you watched this video/tutorial all the way through you’ll have what you need to know how to brush your locs.
i have question… Do u recommend a honey mask for locs?.. btw(i started my locs of by brushing it with a Brush. just like a sponge) … theres a weird trend saying Brushing *damages the locs .. lol disagree!
I have very healthy long locs for over seven years and I would not add anything heavy to your locs. This will cause build up. Spritz with water daily and use a very light oil once or twice a week. Keep it simple.
I think you can reach more talking points much quicker if you were to make a script for your video. The video could have been much shorter with just as much information with less filler but it was an informative video. 👍
" you jus had to wear that sweater" 😂😂😂😫 Rs
My locs are almost two years old, maturing at a decent rate, if not already. I get retwists around every 2-3 months. Would you say after a fresh retwist still not to brush the roots even for mature locs?
Loc brushing is not for the root area
@@thedigitalloctician it sounds like you mention brushing at the root at 5:24 and 9:50?
This doesn’t cause thinning? ….I’m thinking bc you shedded hair goes into the locs and if your brushing it doesn’t that mess with the integrity of the loc ?
thats why the type of bristles matters
Well your locs are bomb !😍lol I read your blog on Pinterest so I’ll try it I trust u 😂 💙💙💙 soft bristles got it ! Thank you
Can I use a brush when I shampoo?
No
Will you still be sharing your favorite foams to retwist ?
Yes I'll be sharing them on my blog
Is it okay if I brush often?
How are we describing "often"?
Every other day!
I brush my locs everyday
Because you deserve!
When: 7:30
What: 11:00
We have to be careful with brushing. I promise I brushed mine only a couple times, with a very soft brush, and my loctician saw where I brushed, especially around the edges.
Your Loctician is paying attention to the details and I love to hear it!!
@@thedigitalloctician yes she always does. She's awesome.
Did you brush near the roots and were your locs mature when she noticed?
@@kimberlyjackson3660 what did you loctition say about you brushing?
@@icecool85 she just simply asked if I had been brushing. I was just amazed that she could tell, because I didn't really brush it much. She mentioned that I should be careful because it could weaken the bonding over time. Not going to lie, though, sometimes I brush when it starts to look really fuzzy to me, but very few times and never two days in a row. Usually one light brushing with some oil helps me look & feel freshened.
Wish i had watched this video YEARS ago. I have so much lint it makes me want to cut them off n stay over😩
I’m the same way I’m trying to fix it because I don’t want to cut them
@@diajhalove2227dye your hair a darker color it was dye the lint
My middle name is Renee.😊
Nope....sorry don't start locs for all this extra sh!t!!❤😂
Brushing ur locs dont clean anythig. It only cleans the shaft of the hair not the inside!! If u just wash your hair minimum once a week there would be no need to brush ur hair! All your doing is stripping hair from the shaft
