Loc Vid: Pipe Cleaner Curls/ACV Rinse Review

This video is showing my results from my first time using pipe cleaners to curl my locs. I also talk about ACV rinses. Below are the tutorials I mentioned in my video:

Hi BronzeGoddess01- Just wanted to tell you that I love your tutorials. I have had Sisterlocks for about 1.5 yrs and mine are almost shoulder length. Questions: 1) What is the ratio between the ACV and water? 2) After shampooing, what do you do first rinse with water or rinse with the ACV? Thank you.

[BronzeGoddess01]

@Mspuddin67 I don't exactly measure so I never gice ratios out. I eyeball it. I wash my hair, rinse with water, spray my hair with the rinse (follow the steps) and then thoroughly rinse with water.

hey BG!! to get even tighter curls....and i mean slinky tight...use perm rods. I use the blue ones and i only put one loc on each rod. it takes forever to do, but mine lasts 3 weeks (i only do it during the cooler months though...humidity will make them fall quickly). my hair looks like a short afro after i use the perm rods! lol!!

[BronzeGoddess01]

@meroekhalia Oooo I wish you had pics. I'd like to see. I have permrods but not the tiniest ones they make and I think I put like 5 locs per pipe clearner.

would this work for genie locs? (yarn braids)

[KrissyBlendz]

It still looks pretty! I'm going to try curl my dreads this Sunday using the pipe cleaners. :-)

@BronzeGoddess01 I use a combo of the tiny blue permrods and grey or peach (the next size) and pipe cleaner, because some of my longer locs tend slip out of the rod...I have the hardest stime with the thicker ones. Anyhoo for hold...Jane Carter's natural hair holding spray is great. I also use Nubian Kinks locing pomade all natural and you use it on the whole loc. Last one Talia Wajid makes a foam....(seriously the pomade is the pom..feels like light body butter. love your vids by the way..

I think my hair is too long (my hair is to the back of my thighs). I tried with just one loc per pipe but there was only curl towards the end. I left them in 5 days.

I just did the pipe curls for the first time and loved them also, gotta post my vid soon~ My locs are a little thicker and they worked great for them, thanks for sharing:)

Peace and Love !~ Harmony

love it!

I love all your styles but I really like the curls you did with the pipe cleaners. Very becoming. It give you a whole new look. Also, what is the name of the eyeshadow that you have on on the vid? That green is hot. And what kind of sheer gloss would recommend I wear?
