Hello my name is Valencia but you can call me V. After years of damaging my hair, I knew there had to be a better way. So I decided to take the path to go natual and lock up. I was Sisterlcoked from June 2006 until Sept 2010 (4yrs). In which during that time I truly enjoyed my hair freedom. Unfortunately my journey had to come to end due to post partum hair loss. I have recently started a new journey this past September, and looking forward to all the ups and downs. As a new Sisterlocks™ Consultant I want to give women and men that same freedom.

Feeling Blue?
Selsun Blue That Is.....
Selsun Blue has became My New Best Friend!
Unfortunately through out my natural years I have had issues with dry scalp and dandruff. I'm talking about the dandruff that every time you run your fingers though you hair flakes fall out or dry scalp that comes back right after a hair washing. After trying so many products I had learned to deal with it. Those other products never worked and when they did it didn't last long. Even keeping oil on my scalp didn't help. So someone suggested Selsun Blue the Medicated one. I tried Selsun Blue before but not this particular brand. Anyhow I must say I saw results in the 1st wash! It didn't rid all of it away but it was a major improvement. After the 2nd or 3rd wash my dandruff was completely gone!!! Can you say Happy? I sure am! By the way my DH experienced severe dandruff as well, but the Selsun Blue cured his dandruff as well!
By the way I used to wash my hair once a week. Recently I forgot to wash my hair because I didn't have any issues, a whole week had passed. On week two I didn't want to wash my hair, because I still didn't have any issues. Anyhow I washed anyway in fear of the dandruff coming back. I might start washing every 3 weeks though.
One thing I almost forgot to add is that I believe Water had a major impact on the dandruff and dry scalp (yes there is a difference). I've recently increased my water intake and that has ceased my dry scalp. The Sisterlocks Starter Shampoo no longer dries out my scalp. I always thought it was the shampoo but have now realized that it was ME! Before I used to oil my scalp lightly because I couldn't stand the dry scalp look, only for it to return. Now I don't have to because my scalp is producing it's own natural oils. #Winning.
If you having any dandruff or dry scalp issues you might want to give Seslun Blue and Drinking water a try.
So as of now my hair routine is very simple.
1). Wash Every two weeks with Selsun Blue Medicated(1st) and Starter Shampoo(2nd)
2). Style if in the mood which is never, lol
3). Sea Water Spritz on occasions 3 -4 times a week when I remember!
Loving My Locks Right Now
Speaking of Locks,
They are doing ok nothing major, they are GROWING!
I had to switch consultants for reasons I wish not to state. I have found another who does excellent work but timing is slow. I did have some slippage so the next appointment I will see if the timing is better if not I guess I will have to give in and start retightening my own hair. So not ready for that! Why is finding a good consultant so hard?
Anyhow hope all is well with everyone.
Until Next Time Much Love!

I say use what works and you found what works for you. I don't understand the big deal about not using commercial products and sticking with only natural products. I'm happy that you found something that makes your sisterlocks journey so much easier.
Yay for you! I am So glad Selsun Blue works for you! We have our days together as well and I must say it works beautifully! Sulfur 8 And Head & Shoulders are a beautiful thing too!!! I am pretty sure It's bc the key ingredient is Pyrithione Zinc! Whatever, we love it!!! Your locks are coming along beautifully!!! Great post! I am so bad about drinking water! I am about to start this new healthy regimen (AGAIN!). Anyways keep locking!!!
I am glad you found something that works for you. At least I have another option should my Nizoral stop working.
