    I’m grateful I have found you! Over the years I was using a lot of products that was not needed because I’m not lose natural any more! So I stick with blue magic grease mixed with sulfur 8 on my scalp, and spirits my hair with vitamin e, castor oil mixed with aloe vera juice! It’s doesn’t leave build up but that is what Queen Joy (my hair) loves! I will detox twice a year and I feel like I will go to once a year because the water is not murky like I think it would be! I use head and shoulders for a clarifying shampoo, a moisturizing shampoo, and a protein conditioner! Since year 3 Queen Joy (my hair) has flourished and I’m in my 5th year which now I’m mid back length. The less the better and I love my disrespectful new growth!! 🤣🤣 #MyLocsIsACancerButImALibra 😜
    Thank you Yannie🥰

      If you don't mind, I have a question. I also use Sulfur 8 because I have seborrheic dermatitis and NOTHING else works. Why do you mix it with Blue magic?

    Greetings everyone, I've been Blessed once again by Yannie and Jimmy and The Beautiful Queen Mother!

My LOC JOURNEY with them is now my LIFE JOURNEY! I can't wait for our next visit! I am So Blessed to have Yannie and Jimmy and the Queen Mother in my life!🙏💕💕

    Nice! I started mine with 2 strand twists and now they're healthy locs. I got so confused with what to do and was using those Jamaican Lime things and getting buildup and breakage and frustrated. But then I found you and I've been following you for a long time and I put nothing on mine but some spray water and some vitamin e oil and it grows so fast, it's nearly at the middle of my back. Thank you for all your help. I hope one day when you're in the DMV I can catch you for an appointment! Thank you sooo much again for all your help with your videos.

    Yes Yannie you did my hair before and you are the holy grail for locs. I learned EVERYTHING from you and trust me. I been to other people. No comparison. They have no idea what they are doing. I’ve had my locs for a little over 5 years and only got it professionally done 4 times and that’s including Yannie. I am a minimalist and my hair is healthy and thriving. The so called “professionals” messed my hair up every single time. NOPE, Yannie is the best I just live too far. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

    Hi Yannie, what else can I use to moisturize my locs besides rose water, it makes my scalp itch.

    • @Rita.7
      @Rita.7 2 роки тому +1

      What I use is a 2:1 water to leave in conditioner mix and then let it soak in for a couple minutes before I coat my hair and scalp in oil to seal it in. I don’t mind using this combo in my hair every other day because the conditioner I use does not flake and it’s winter so my hair needs extra help. I know some people avoid conditioner at all costs but I figure that if you conditioner your hair while it’s out, you can condition it occasionally while in locs as well. I hope this helps
