Loc Workshop and Stylist Competition. 17.10.2014. Save the Date.

Na wa o! Where is August running to? I remember telling myself sometime in July that I wasn't going to actively start working on my October projects till August and all of a sudden it's already the middle of August. Dai iz God o!!!

On a more serious note, I'm thrilled to announce that Locitude would be hosting Nigeria's first ever Loc Workshop and Stylist Competition come 17th of October, 2014. Yaaaaaaaaaayi. I must have mentioned in a previous post that the idea for this event was born whilst distributing copies of the maiden edition of the Locitude Magazine in Lagos; then I came across a group of stylists that were amused about the pipe cleaner curls I was wearing at the time. Fortunately I still had the pipe cleaners in, so I had to give them a crash course on how to. Thanks to them, the Locitude will be sharing the little knowledge acquired from having locs for almost 5 years + endless hours of after work scouring the internet for information.

So this event is for everyone who wants to learn or who wants their stylist learn, it's also for all of us loc lovers to share and collectively understand what's best for our precious crowns.

Save the Date.... More information, vendors, partners, giveaways, prices and even much more coming soon.

More stuff to watch out for.

7 Locitude #LocInspiration Hair Styles for Short Locs.

Hello Loc Heads, This one is obviously for fellow loc heads in the awkward phase of their locs. The awkward phase is usually sometime around Day 1 - Year 2; when your head is full of scalp after a fresh re-twist and your locs seem too scanty, when your hair unravels after a fresh re-twist before you say can say Jack Robinson; when you think water is your worst enemy because it's preventing your locs from forming; when you are having a bad hair day and you feel like - Oh God if only I could get my hair into a ponytail it would do. I can go on and on... but instead I present you with 7 Style Ideas for short locs. #LocInspiration no. 1: Loc loops or Loc petals. Reminds me of a cropped hair cut, this style looks classy and elegant. Can be worn to an event. It's also neat and can help with a more serious/subtle look. #LocInspiration no. 2: Pinned Up side. Even though it is just pinning up one side of your locs, it always make a difference. A touch Style. You can use ha...

Make sure it's not too tight. Step 4: Style to your taste ...

Product Review: Jamaican Mango & Lime Shampoo and conditioner.

Hello there, Happy new month for starters :), I'm going to have to be very awake this September, so there will be no need to wake me up when September ends :). I never like to go into whatever topic I raise straight away, I like gist, so forgive me if I always gist a little before I go into it. I can't help it, I am a proud plumpy African woman... before I over digress, l had to control the urge to watch other reviews before this post so that my opinion is not swayed in any way. This is my honest review of the Jamaican Mango & Lime Shampoo and Conditioner. I have used this products religiously for about three years, so I guess I am qualified to review. Jamaican Mango & Lime Tingle Shampoo Shampoo: Function - Very Good Smell - Very Good Feeling - Excellent Lather - Good Just as it's name goes the "tingle" in the shampoo is real; and that's the best part of it. The Tingle Shampoo, gives you a tingly feeling on you...
