Hello Everyone,

Pleased to inform you of the launch of TheLocitude.com today the 19th of August, 2014. *Now dancing a combination of Shoki and Azonto*... :)

In addition to the blog I thought it wise to get a website to enable easier navigation of content and communication between us Loc Heads. Before I begin to tell the story of how the website came to be, I must say a big thank you to everyone who is reading, has read, commented, encouraged, discouraged, liked and communicated with the Locitude on any platform. You all are my inspiration. :)

At TheLocitude.com you would be able to go straight into the look book for style ideas which we'll try to update at least once a month. You'll also have access to our products, right now there's the coconut oil (cooked by Aunt Angela) which is selling out like water and the pipe cleaners for those of us that like to keep it curly every now and then. In the month of September we would be stocking up with a variety of loc products so stay tuned.

TheLocitude.com also helps you keep abreast of all our events both past and future, easy access to the Locitude magazine and of course a link back here - the blog where it all started.

Special thanks to John Iseghohi for adding the "The" to The Locitude and my Akan Umoden for approving (I bounce everything I do off him). I was quite torn when I found out that Locitude.com was taken and was battling with Loc-itude.com, Locitude.com.ng, Locitude.ng, Locitude.net, Locitude.co and the likes. I think the TheLocitude.com sounds perfect.

Thanks again, please check out TheLocitude.com and show us some love on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. 

More on the Workshop & Competition coming soon and the Vintage inspired edition October 2014, can't wait.

Xoxo, Your Loc Head,
Ade.

7 Locitude #LocInspiration Hair Styles for Short Locs.

By
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

By
Hello, #TGIF #ItsTheWeekendBaby #PhotoShootModeActivated #Locitude #HairHowTo #LocsAndAttitude #LocWorkshop #ComingSoon #OkReadBelow. I'm obviously excited, payments for my shipment on brand new dada products stock has finally gone through (It is not easy to be a Nigerian #That'sAll), now waiting for the products to get here. I hope it doesn't take forever. I found this FREE accounting app called waves app, which is helping keep my spend together. I usually get excited when I learn new stuff, so yaaaayi. Seems this hobby is becoming a business sooner than I imagined. Sorry back to the Loc loop Tutorial... Step 1: Select two strands of locs close to each other. (You can use only one strand of loc only or 3-4 depending on how thick your locs are) Step 2: Take the ends of your strands, fold them towards the roots making a loop Step 3: Fasten the base of the loop with a tiny rubber band. Make sure it's not too tight. Step 4: Style to your taste

How I Keep My Loc Curls in Check - The 3 step process.

By
Hey y'all, Today was a good me day, got to hang out with my friends from way back. I was so so so glad I did. It was much fun and I am still rocking my locs in zigzag curls with an attitude. Just thought to drop a quick one on how I have maintained my locs for a whole week without loosing them. Rocking my Zigzag curls, one week in. Wore them down the whole time. Here's my simple 3 step process. 1. The Satin Bonnet Sleep in a Satin bonnet or Scarf. The primary reason for this is to retain moisture and ensure your locs are not picking up lint from your beddings. The added advantage is that is helps to retain your curls when you are asleep as well. :) 2. The Shower Cap + Tee Shirt Take a bath/shower in a shower cap. reinforced with a tee shirt. Yep, if you are trying to retain your curls water isn't your friend. Once water touches your loc curls they are gone. So I use a tee shirt to hold my shower cap up to ensure I don't get water on
