Hey my people,

I'm really excited today as I have new inspiration for my baby project (I really can't wait for elections to be over) Locitude, which turns 1 year this month. It's kinda unbelievable that it's been almost a year already. I'm not saying much in this post; all I'll be doing is posting feedback from two of Locitude Studio customers which were posted on Facebook  and Instagram respectively and it just makes me feel AWESOME!

My actual first attempt in colouring my locs with the @sheamoisture4u Shea Moisture ammonia etc free hair color. Will try a touch up in weeks to hopefully get the deep Auburn.
Really interesting as @locitude gave me a new feel of loc experience today, quite practical, knowledgeable and a great listener. It is really interesting and always peaceful to work with one who understands you and your language. @locitude it was really great finding you today.....
My chemical free journey is on, one step at a time.

"I save my awe-struck raving for when I have time to settle down and famz properly. I'm not a half-measures chick. I go the whole nine yards. And in doing so tonight, let me tell you dred-heads about a girl called Ade Balogun.
Listen, go and meet her to style your locs. Seriously. Not only is she a super loc-stylist, she KNOWS about caring for locs and other natural styles. She is concerned about your hair. She doesn't want to twist your locs till your scalp bleeds. She's not just about the aesthetics of a nicely done head of locs. Nope. She will show you the road to healthier hair.
And she does all of this for a very affordable fee. I was quite taken aback by her prices. Seriously. The people I have allowed the privilege to style my hair in the past who have made me bleed and charged me an arm and a leg for my own blood, waka-shege. I love making my hair and all those other times were as a result of emergencies but never again. When I have an emergency must-style-my-hair-by-the-hand-of-another moment, it is Ade that I shall run to.
Thank you Ade, thank you Bassey for the hook up.
Before I go, ehen, let's talk about faux locs for another minute. So, locs are now a fad ehn? You, you, and you, that used to say only irresponsible people wore the look, you are now using your money to buy irresponsibility. See, it's not that deep, but human beings are very funny. Oya swallow your words with apple-juice. See ya mouf.
Good night! My two 'stories' shall come tomorrow - I really must tell those. But now, must meet deadline.
Peace, love, and all the other nice stuff.
xx."

 So there there, I'm sure you understand how awesome "Locitude" and I feel......

Stay tuned for my Loc and Exercise post coming later today.... My locs are in distress but I'm still rocking them with an attitude.

Xoxo, till later,

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

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
