11 Month Lock Update | My Edges Grew Back, No More flakes!

Hey Mocha Family,

I am so excited about this set of locks and my enthusiasm is coming through in this video. I really struggled with managing my flaky scalp for years. What worked with my first set of locks was to shampoo every three days, which was daunting in the cooler months. I knew that an omega three fatty acid deficiency was at the root of my issue and incorporated flax seeds into my diet. This helped greatly, but if I stopped washing even for a week, the flakes would come back with a vengeance.

I've had a tremendous break through this month. My regimen to heal subclinical hypothyroidism includes taking a tbsp of cod liver oil with my meals (twice a day). At the same time, my locks have looked so good I had stopped rinsing altogether. After nearly a month of random rinsing and weeks without washing with shampoo, you can imagine my amazement to discover a flake free and healthy scalp.

Be blessed!

I tried snap clips, and moved to velcro barrets when the clips slid out. I bought a different head band for every outfit. Meanwhile her curls continued to wind tighter and tighter. I kept everything in a pretty box, dubbed the hair bin . I was really frustrated at not b...
