Faux Butterfly Locs Aftercare Routine | Week 1 Update!
Hey everyone!
Welcome back to All Things With Tip! In this blog post, I'm sharing my experience with caring for my new faux butterfly locs! I wasn’t too sure about this style at first, but I'm one week in and loving this style.

The Problem:
My scalp was itching like crazy! It could have possibly been the synthetic hair. I knew I needed to address it before it got worse.
The Solution:
A good scalp-soothing shampoo! I used the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Scalp Care Shampoo and Conditioner and let me tell you, it made a HUGE difference. My scalp felt instantly calmer and refreshed.
Post-Shampoo Pampering:
I towel dried the locs. To further nourish my scalp, I applied the Difeel Peppermint Premium Hair Oil. This oil is amazing! It's cooling, invigorating, good for growth and helps to keep my scalp healthy and happy.
Edge Care is Key:
To tame my edges and encourage growth, I'm using a combination of Biotin Jamaican Black Castor Oil and Sytonics Edge Control. This duo keeps my edges laid and moisturized.
Why I Love This Style:
Protective Styling: Faux butterfly locs are perfect for protecting my hair while it grows.
Low Maintenance: They require minimal styling and upkeep.
Versatile: You can dress them up or down for any occasion.
Overall:
I'm so happy with how my faux butterfly locs are turning out. This aftercare routine is definitely a keeper! I'm hoping to extend the life of this style a bit longer than usual.
