• Hi, I just want to say that the aura you emit is awesome, keep up the great work, you are quite inspiring. I was curious, I have tried everything in the book but my ends are just so dry, I tried the l.o.c method, i tried leave in & shea, I tried leave in & oil, I tried moisturizer & oil, i tried starting with an aloe vera/water mist first and then proceeding, but still my ends are dry. Can you please list the appropriate steps for better ends, so I can tuck them away in my protective style.

Hey :) Thank you for the sweetness!

Do your ends need to be trimmed? Dryness and brittleness often stem from a combination of general neglect, friction against your clothes, split ends and knots. A good trim can help you start on a clean slate. If not, have you tried clarifying your hair with Apple Cider Vinegar, to make sure the dryness isn’t coming from too much product buildup in the strands? Here is how I clarify my hair once a month. After you’ve covered both bases, try a water based leave-in (Giovanni is a great one) and seal with Jamaican Black Castor Oil. It’s my favorite combination for protecting ends. Hope that helps!

In case you missed the importance of sealing ends, watch here.
