The Locitude Blog!

The time for us to celebrate is here again, save the date, 24th June, 2017. Details coming in a bit. Watch this space.

Hello You, I am motivated to write today as I had a blast dancing salsa last Friday night and was complimented to be the best female dancer on the dance floor. It's one of two things though, either every other female was a beginner or it was just fluke. I think it was fluke. The compliment excited me too much and one of the ways of channeling my excitement is to do this blog post. :D. Enough about me. Trust you are doing good and being the best at something out there. So to the koko of the day. My Loc Care Regime is not surprisingly simple and straight to the point. Shampoo: I use a sulphate based mix made by my mum to shampoo my hair 1 – 2 times a month. Unfortunately, mummy’s shampoo is not available for sale yet as we are continually working on perfecting her recipe. A lot of naturalista’s frown at sulphate based products but in the last 2 years I have come to realise that those are the only shampoos that can properly cleanse locs. As a result of what locs are and...

Hey People, I'm bumping my head to 50cents " Go shortie, it's your birthday " even though it's clearly not my birthday...

What do you see? A young lady walked into the  Locitude Studio  last Saturday and asked if she could get a pedicure. I politely told her No, as we do not offer that service. She had a full head of natural hair on her head so I proceeded to ask her when she would like to loc (turn her hair into dreadlocks) her hair. The expression on her face was of disgust, her entire body headed towards the door, literally running away from my words. Just before she reached the door I mentioned to her that my hair is all mine and loc'd (dreadlocked). Her eyes lit up, and she started to realise that everyone else in the studio had loc'd hair. She was amused by the length, thickness and beauty of our hair then she started asking questions. Cynthia spent about two hours with us learning about locs and considering them for herself. She hadn't even realised how much time had passed and that a pedicure was all she was looking to get, before she met us at Locitude. Before Cynthia left, she...

Dear Loc Hater, I don't want to be upset with you any longer and your ignorance is becoming too painful to watch; so I have decided to do you a favour, to educate you about this thing called Dada (locs, dreadlocks) because you obviously do not understand it. 1.    It is none of your business. How I choose to wear my hair is really not any of your business, so you can keep your hateful comments to yourself. Come on, life is already complicated enough for you to be worrying over my own hair. Don't you have work? 2.    It is my hair. My dada is growing from my head, it is mine, and there's nothing wrong with that. It certainly shouldn't be more acceptable to wear someone else's hair, should it? Additionally can you please stop calling me "Liar" when I honestly tell you my hair is mine; and yes all of it is mine. No there are no extensions in there. It is all mine. 3. Stop stereotyping. Making assumptions about someone just because...

Hello Peeps, Yes, I know I'm doing good with updating the blog regularly, thank you, thank you, no photographs, no autographs in short no graphs, I'm just trying hard to score high on my performance review tomorrow. Hehehe.... ok on to serious matters, you might be wondering what KUI Care is, if you don't already know, let me tell you. KUI Care is a proudly  Made In Nigeria hair product range specifically for natural hair. I was opportuned  to attend a sample party for said product hosted by Savvy And Chic Hair Beauty Hub early December 2016 and it was a pleasure to meet Majiri Otobo, the creator of KUI Care.
