I decided to wash these faux locs before installing. It's a pretty quick and easy process . This helps you remove any build up or chemicals used during the manufacturing process. It also helps to soften the hair and gives it a fresher, more pleasant smell.

I wash mine because my scalp is very sensitive to whatever coating they put in the hair to keep it fresh. It makes my hair itch and get bumps and sores

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

Awesome.. I'm sure it made a big difference.

@christinapetty215 4 года назад

NaturalHairnamix it definitely does

@gracealabi7936 4 года назад

I forgot this go around and the hell I endured

@LeaT1120 4 года назад

Thank you for doing a video on prepping the faux locs prior to installation. I've been contemplating doing faux locs but hesitated bc I was unsure if the locs can be pretreated

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

You are most welcome

Can you use regular vinegar? @NaturalHairnamix

@momodias1997 2 года назад

Those locs were pretty clean pre-wash! I've gotten so much hair where the water turns gray post soak

@knielle1194 3 года назад

Thank you so much for making this video. First one i’ve found after searching for about an hour

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

Wow.. you're welcome.

@ms.prettipetite7293 5 лет назад

I always wash my crochet braids before I install them because I like to have a sweet smell on my locs. Not that chemical smell

@NaturalHairnamix 5 лет назад

Right...it makes a world of difference

@thtwestafrican 2 года назад

how do you get the smell to leave on the locs? i really hate the way acv smells

@NaturalHairnamix 2 года назад

You didn't watch to the end🙂 I added conditioner after rinsing out the ACV

How many times have u reused you crochet locs before you have to purchase a new set?

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

I have never reused them. Always throw them out after one use. These were washed straight out of the package.

@Mowizzy1 3 года назад

Does the washing help with shedding? I installed them before but it was shedding a lot and I didn't like that.

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

Do you mean frizzing? If so i dont think washing helps to alleviate that. That's due to the texture and density of the locs. I find that of the locs are too soft and silky they frizz easily.

@triciaflynel7969 3 года назад

thank you verymuch

@sunkissedgoddess93 2 года назад

Can you do this with butterfly locs?

@NaturalHairnamix 2 года назад

Absolutely

@faitharthurs3685 4 года назад

What temperature water do you use? Hot? Or warm?

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

It was warm.

@tinkeranime 4 года назад

Have you tried this with goddess locs? I wondered if the ends would hold up

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

Oh yes...it definitely would hold up..because it's mot being rubbed aggressively it will maintain the curls

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jmADcejYmGA.html I did do a video washing the passion twists and they had curls at the ends..pretty similar outcome

@brookeedwards6254 3 года назад

How long does it take to dry?

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

I hung it overnight so im not able to say definitely but it was dried by morning

@christinapetty215 4 года назад

Can you wash your hair with this hair in or will it mess up the hair?

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

You can but very delicately with minimal manipulation.

@asmerasmith3724 4 года назад

Thank you for uploading! Does this help with the unnatural shine the locs can have too?

@NaturalHairnamix 4 года назад

Hmmmm... I'm not sure about that. I stay away from the shiny looking hair so the ones I use usually look natural so I am not too certain.

@asmerasmith3724 4 года назад

NaturalHairnamix okay! Thank you! I have the same hair as you but in a different color- and it’s shiny 🥺 I’ll definitely try this method and then report back though

@marsl.6967 2 года назад

I have very sensitive scalp. I'm scared to add conditioner because of my sensitivity. Is it necessary to add conditioner in the end?

@NaturalHairnamix 2 года назад

No you don't have to add it.

@lexy8692 Год назад

I’m using the micro faux crochet locs, will rinsing them with acv cause them to unravel?

@NaturalHairnamix Год назад

I shouldn't think so

@juste7620 3 года назад

NaturalHairnamix, how long do they take to dry?

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

I left them hanging for an entire day .. I wasn't really checking to see at what point they had fully dried so allow at least 24 hours.

@juste7620 3 года назад

@@NaturalHairnamix okay, Thank you for replying back and so promptly! Awesome sauce

@jaileysmith7732 3 года назад

I need an answer to this asap, can i do this to cuban hair? The one i have has a tiny odor too it but my scalp is sensitiveand i wanted to know if i could do this to the cuban hair

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

Absolutely

@woundedhead23 3 года назад

I have locs with strands of curl in them. Do you think it would be okay if I do this with them?

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

Yes. Just keep each pack secured together while washing.

@zooolieee 2 года назад

Do i wash it in hot, cold, or warm water?

@NaturalHairnamix 2 года назад

Cool water from the regular tap is what I used. Warm can work too tho.

@erika92 2 года назад

Can I use white vinegar?

@NaturalHairnamix 2 года назад

I'm not sure if the white vinegar has the same effect. It's not real hair so you can try it or just use shampoo.

@maurwchance 6 месяцев назад

I tried with white vinegar once and it didn't help much. Hoping the apple cider will

@Angel-hf2fe 3 года назад

I didn't wash my locks before I put them in but it didn't break out my scalp my hand broke out and I use nail glue to seal it is there any reason why the more I touch it my hand breaks down in warts someone help me with this

@NaturalHairnamix 3 года назад

Sorry to hear that you experienced that. I really have no knowledgeable â to what could have caused your hands to break out. Hope it is better soon or you would maybe seek medical advice.
