thank you so much for this! It's tough when you go into the beauty Supply store and become confused over what products to buy for your locs. It says one thing on the label but what's inside could work against you. More stylist like you should inform the loc public on good and bad products more often. I'm definitely bgoing to share this video!
and none of that stuff is good for your health,that is why people cant grow hair like they did back in the days,too much chemicals can stunt hair growth.....i would never put that stuff on my scalp
Yes, I learned that when my hair hit a plateau. I started drinking more water, fruits and veggies, took a multivitamin, and started exercising ... Growth returned my hair was stronger and I felt better.
I love you, Damian, and I mean that. You are so helpful to people like me, who are beginning their loc journeys (I'm 6 mos in). One of these days I am going to have my crown "blessed" by you (LOL!). Thank you SO MUCH, Damian. You are a true jewel!!
Thank you for being so thorough with your explanation of products and the effects each product has on hair. I have never seen a stylist with such compassion for people and providing detailed guidance on this level. Thank you.
It's a lot that I have to learn. I read labels now. It has became something that is a must for all shoppers that have woke up. I love the time people take to spread good info, it has became something as a diamond in the rough.
Wow thank you so much for breaking this down! I tend to get so overwhelmed when i go into hair stores because I just never know what to get for my natural curls, but your videos are great and really helped! thanks alot.
Priceless! I get so overwhelmed in the stores and frustrated with purchases that don't do what they state. Now I understand why. Your videos have been very helpful to me. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Oh, you like my locs! I maintain them myself because I live in a town in the south of England and we have never heard the word loctitian let alone have any. I had them started in London 7 years ago and I am still learning but through some of Damian's advice lately they are squeaky clean, shiny, healthy, soft ( I have only had one that I had to break off right at the back month's ago) They are halfway down my back now and beautiful. Advice for newbies - you got to look after, it's not free!
You are the best! I love informative videos. Keep them coming we need correct info and not BS to see a product. Thank you so much. Looking forward to more.
I love watching your videos. I'm learning as I become a hairstylist. Never to much education for something I love to do. Thanks keep the videos coming.
This video is and will always be phenomenal. I have always wondered about all the crap and good items to use at the beauty supply store. Thank you for taking the risk to educate us about how to take care of our hair and what to buy.
He puts down alot of products , So if he was ever to make his own it would be the best on the market cause he knows whats good and whats not , REAL TALK .
You are THA BOMB! okay. I would love if you could do a series on the BSS products. For example maybe a video dedicated to leave ins and deep conditioners. I know you are a busy man but you just opened up a pandoras box of questions for me and I'm sure others who are looking for great staple products.
I love you! I have taken some great advice from your videos but I find you highly entertaining at the same time! ' African Best Triple Repair - That hurts my feelings, it's just not that serious'. Ow, my belly hurts.
This is the first video I watched that introduced me to Mr Damian Still awesome to watch.when he use to travel to nyc to do hair. ❤. Finally got to meet him.
OMG! This is so helpful. I got what we call the "BIG CUT" because I want to go natural with my hair. I don't want to put just anything in my hair because I want healthy locks from the root up. So this helps me so much because I didn't know where to start as far as what kind of shampoo, conditioner, moisturizer/oil to use for it to grow healthy. Thank You, ~Holly, Tennessee
THANK YOU SO MUCH! For this tutorial on your knowledge and expertise experience with these HAIR products for drelocs. When I first started out with my drelocs you couldn't find any products, now there is so many It's overwhelming.
I looooove your videos! I did want to know however, what you your opinions are about leave in conditions. I am locking and I am using the leave in conditioner by creme of nature argon oil. To leave in or not to leave in?
Loving all this info, recently relaxed my hair and decided i want locs, gonna make sure my hair gets healthy again before i start by using these products
always enjoy your videos and look forward to them....they are always so informative and funny. thank you for taking the time from your schedule to educate us
It is wonderful that you are telling people what to buy, but products are out of focus and the throw in the hand movements it's all over, so add a link or at least list the products that you are recommending. .
Might I recommend Neweer brand Clip Microphones? You can clip them yo your shirt, plug into your phone and record for good quality sound on the go. I got a 12 bag of them for 10$ they last long and get the job done.
This was soo informational! I’m always lost when I go to the hair store bc it’s loaded with sooo much stuff I nvr know what to buy-now I do! I’ll be heading to the store in the morning to grab that oil and the cream of nature’s shampoo and conditioners
You're not be negative at all; a lot of products sold in the beauty stores are heavily laden with petrolatum, alcohol and other ingredients that either cause drying effect or products sit on the hair. I use ABS and other natural essential & plant oils that haven't been extract with harmful chemicals.
Keep in mind that all of these products that are mentioned in this video is giving you AN IDEA of what to use and Not to use. The best thing to do is to see a licensed beautician/a REAL loctician (not saying Damien is not because he is) and have your hair and scalp analyzed. FROM THERE, you would know what products are best to use on YOUR hair. BTW Mane and Tail Products are for HORSES not you.
Good Morn'n u have gained a new fan, I have a question what's in the bottle that u spray on the hair? Going out to get the products to start doin my sons hair thank u so much.
what is a good product that's in beauty supplies to start locks with? and after you start them how long should someone wait before they can wash their hair and get it re-twisted?
This video was really help hope! I recently did my big chop and my hair is dry dry dry. It's as dry as a hot day I'm Texas lol. I will def try the creme of nature! Do you have any other suggestions for dry natural hair?
I'm not natural but I do have skin eczema and on my scalp. What do you recommend to put on my scalp?? Thank you!!! Very nice videos and helpful information.
Great information!! Thank you and yes you right about them " African " names products I was one of them people running n buying every thing that had it on the label lmao!! I no better now !
Nice video what type of products would you recommend for a guy " well me" for washing and styling. I wear a short curly taper or temp fade, something like what diggy simmons has. And I have a hard time keeping it curly and maintaining moisture. Could u please help me out. Thank you.
Have seen a dermatologist and the stuff burns, but its not chronic, but it does itch a lot and can get sore at times..have tried tea tree oil, its ok, will try the aloe vera..thank you so much...=)
Damian also has another video (one of his LIVE videos) where he tells you that he is not a fan of 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner. also he's not a big fan of Gel of any kind but remember all hair is different so you really have to ask questions and research. I personally started my locs with Murrays Loc-Lock gel and so far, it's worked for me and I use beeswax to maintain them. Less is More when it comes down to Beeswax
I fell in love immediately !! i am natural almost a yr now and i ve been looking for produts to realy define my curls ..and also i want some dreads but not just yet i still want to play around with diff styles on my out with it natural ...can yu still lock hair up after like 3 or 4 yrs of growing it out? which i kno yu can but will it be the same or difficult?absolutely love your chanell my bf has dreads and this has helped me freak them lol thnk yu sorry for the life long story .
Thanks for the review. I'm sure you have heard this before, but you are very good looking! Just wanted to say that. You're intelligent too and I love your knowledge.
I really luv this Brother...trying to get my man to watch some of your vids..hes locked.but needs tips on hair care...Good info in the beauty supply store ....I wish more of us ....owned them...and the products within .....just a thought.
Organic Root Stimulator Fertilizer grew my bald edges back. My hair came out from box braids and from quick weaves. That glue is not good for black hair. It thinned out my hair. I cut off 4 inches. I am a natural girl. My hair is growing back good. It eats up my Jamaican Black Castor oil as well as organic peppermint oil. Damian, have you ever used Giovanni Conditioner. It is really good. It has avocado & olive oil. Made for dry damaged hair.
hello!!!! I have been natural now for a year and 2 months. It is now long enough to comb coil or finger twist, but its soft and I want to know what type of products should I use in order to maintain healthy hair and possible to add thickness or volume. I would also like to know what kind of products are good to use for rod styles, twists, or comb coils so it does not leave build up and/or residue. Also I would like to know what kind of everyday or every other day products that i can use when I just wear a fro. Thanks!!
I wish you would explain what products are good for locs. Shampoos, conditioners, oils and apple cider rinses. What is the best product to retwist with? Help!!!! We love you!!!!
I think that you are on the money Damian....just the kind of "Hair Engineer" I like. Have BIG respect for you......You can imagine how many so called hair dressers have helped to damage my hair...ignoring the structure........Remember that I coined that term for you.....Again ...this is the first time that I saw your videos....watched at least 10 back to back before I came to that decision.
What was the name of the oils that you used in your hair? I believe one was Black Queen Oil Spray Sheen and I think the other you said was a hot growth oil...volume is kind of low...I have baby locs now....and about the shampoo/conditioner to use...I didn't catch that either...
I love your viceo and your knowlege of the products, i am in the process of locking my hair. i currently have perm on the ends of my hair, so far my hair. i would say i have about 3 inches i started off braiding my own hair into little indiviula braids and knotted the ends and as the hair grows out im twisthing new growth so i was wondering if you would recommend the one thing that would help me have succefull locks. the best products from begining to ethe ends,
You should be an instructor in the schools. Awesome man
Damian pleaaaase do more videos like this!!!?? This helped me tremendously!!!!
Morgan Thomas yes👍👍👍💞
thank you so much for this! It's tough when you go into the beauty Supply store and become confused over what products to buy for your locs. It says one thing on the label but what's inside could work against you. More stylist like you should inform the loc public on good and bad products more often. I'm definitely bgoing to share this video!
Might I add that nutrition plays a major part in healthy hair and healthy hair growth.
and none of that stuff is good for your health,that is why people cant grow hair like they did back in the days,too much chemicals can stunt hair growth.....i would never put that stuff on my scalp
Yes, I learned that when my hair hit a plateau. I started drinking more water, fruits and veggies, took a multivitamin, and started exercising ... Growth returned my hair was stronger and I felt better.

Thank you for the beauty supply store break down. I had given up on finding any good products for my hair. Luv your vids.
I use a mix of olive oil & caster oil. It's wonderful for my gray hair. My hair loves it.

Hi i was wondering what do you think of lock and twist and if you could suggest products that i should be using on my clients?
Might I recommend Neweer brand Clip Microphones?
You can clip them yo your shirt, plug into your phone and record for good quality sound on the go.

@locsnatwist the bottle that he was walking with is Profectiv Mega Growth Growth Oil... It is WONDERFUL!
All i wonted was a moisturiser to use to help lock my hair. Not all these sprays oils mousse stuff. And all that stuff I shouldn't use.
You're not be negative at all; a lot of products sold in the beauty stores are heavily laden with petrolatum, alcohol and other ingredients that either cause drying effect or products sit on the hair. I use ABS and other natural essential & plant oils that haven't been extract with harmful chemicals.
