I got three bottles of these from the Sisterlocks Explosion, and I'm now down to 1 bottle. So these last a good while, especially if you just do braids and twists every 2-3 weeks. Below is my complete review of Easy Herbal Comb Out by Taliah Waajid.

Conclusion
This is a really good product. I like how it makes my daughter hair shine, and how it soften my daughter hair, but I can't say it the best darn detangler out there, because it just as comparable to the other detangler I have purchase in the past. I don't know... I feel like if I'm applying a product on my daughter hair that is marketed as a detangler, I shouldn't have to "work" to detangle the hair. I should be able to comb out her hair with minimum effort (similar to when you do a blowout). I don't think they are any such thing as a super detangler for our hair type (4a/4b) because it just too darn tightly curl.

What does set this product apart from other detangler I have used in the past, is how it makes my daughter hair soft and shiny, without the greasy effect. I also love the smell of this product and how it just smells likes a little girl’s hair product. If you looking for something to help manage your kids hair, this product does the job, but keep in mind that if your daughter hair is like mines, thick and long, you will still need to do the normal process of detangling her hair before applying this product (meaning you need to detangle his/her hair in the shower while shampooing).

Most likely I will be purchasing this product again, since I really enjoyed using it on her hair. Once she a little older, I will purchase the Taliah Waajid Protective Mist Bodifier for her as her main moisturizer until she is locked.

I wish I knew this when I was transitioning as a natural because I may have been natural a little while longer (but knowing what I know now, I still would have gotten sisterlocks years ago). If you are currently waiting for your hair to grow a little longer for sisterlocks or locks in general, this is the perfect way to help manage your hair as you wait.

I always thought the beginning of your natural hair journey is always easier (once you figure out what products works etc.), since your hair is very short and manageable. As your natural hair gets longer, you have to do extra step to detangle your hair even before you can even style it.

Below is a great solution to help manage your much longer hair when you are on a time crunch. Also if you have little girls who is a natural, this will help soothe her when she is wanting a little more manageable hair like her fellow classmates. I do this on my daughter hair all the time, it helps with the pain, and makes her hair a little bit more manageable. To minimize the effect of heat on her hair, I use a heat protector, and a blow dryer with a diffused top. Below is the step by step instruction on how to do a "blowout" on kinky, curly hair.

Material
- Heat Protector - I used "Kinky, Wavy, Natural Hair" on my daughter hair, but you can use Oyin Handmade or Protective Mist Bodifier or any oil base product (for example my homemade spray).
- Blow Dryer with concentrator top
- Wide Tooth Comb
- Butterfly Clips

Step 1 - Apply your heat protector, and then you are going to section your hair into four sections. Clip three of those section with a butterfly clips. Note: I assume you have already detangled your hair already when you wash your hair etc. If you need to know how to detangle, click here. 

If you have 4 type of hair, detangling is a MUST! It helps lesson the amount of hair that you shed, while you are combing out your hair. The only hair you should lose is the hair that sheds naturally every month. If you walking away with a HUGH lump of hair, after a comb out, then you are doing something wrong.

I really hate when I hear certain hair type can't grow long. It just not true! Certain hair type can grow as long as the next person, but in order to see the length, you may have to do more work than someone who has a looser hair type. You just have to accept that some hair type just requires extra tender loving care in order to bloom. Below is the step by step instruction on how to detangle your hair or your daughter's hair for hair retention.

Material Needed
- Shampoo & Conditioner
- Wide Tooth Comb

Step 1. Shampoo  - I prefer doing my detangling in the shower, and while I'm shampooing. You can do it while using your conditioner, but I find when I do it while I shampooing, the hair is much cleaner and product build up are none existing.

If you have flat ironed or even applied magnetic rollers on your sisterlocks, you will notice the wavy look doesn't last very long and that is a true bummer.

If you want to make the wavy last a little longer, you just need to repin the locks in the direction it was originally.  Below is an example of what I mean (I only did one for an example, but you need to pin all your locks down). Hope this help you keep your super straight sisterlocks longer.

Layers Example Before Pined
1 Layer Section Pined

Below is a tutorial on "how to" get super straight and extra length sisterlocks. You can achieve the same look with less the time with flat iron (got to be honest here) but a lot of the "natural" hair community have a problem with ANY heat being applied to their hair or locks, so this "how to" is for you. You can also check out the video by CurlyNuGrowth as well for a tutorial on this.

STEP 1 - You well need Magnetic Rollers, Hair Bands (Optional), Spray Bottle (filled with water), and the Double Prong Metal Clips

Step 2 - Split your sisterlocks into a Mohawk, and put the rest of your locks into twin pony tails.



Non Step - I had issue with thinning, so a couple of my locks are shorter than the rest, and that is why I split them below. You should take that area with one roller going all the way back (read a recent post about my thinning issue here).
 

Step 3 - You want to roll your locks in the direction of how you want your locks to finally settle and look, and than use the clips. For me I did it backward (layer look) vs forward (flip look) to see the result click here. An example of a flip look is here. Note: You want one of the clip to secure your rollers down, so make sure they are clipped at the base/root of your locks, and then use the others to secure any flyaway etc.

Step 4 - When doing the sides, start from the bottom going up. Make sure your rollers are secure, because you will be doing that over and over again if it is not done right :(.



Step 5 - Check for any locks that must have slip or rollers that need to be redone. Once you are completely done, do a final spray with your water bottle and relax. If you not dead set again using heat, try using your hair dryer to speed up the drying time.
 

Final Look - To be honest, I was so over applying these rollers by the time I got to the right side that I almost give up. I really hope my speed improve in the future, because this took too long to apply and air dry, and I honestly prefer using my flat iron -_-.

You can see the result of the magnetic rollers here. You can see the method comparison I did here (Flat Ironed vs. Magnetic Rollers).

Magnetic Roller Set Claims
Static electricity holds hair in place
Wrap faster and easier
Fast and easy to clean

Like
- Extra Length
- Soft Wave Layers
- No Heat Needed
- Safe to Use
- Easy to Use

Dislike
- The Time it Took to Implement
- Very bucky so I can't sleep with them
- Doesn't Last Long

Note: You can dry off the roller set in a dryer in two hour time frame (that how long it took for curlynugrowth) but that would defeat the advantage of the no heat method, so I would suggest doing this on a day off. Just pin the curls with a pins to make the style last a little longer (that is what I do with the flat ironed result).

Conclusion: I love the result of this, and highly recommend these type of rollers if you looking for something to spice up your shorter sisterlocks. Though you can use this with no dryer, I on the other hand will use a dryer when I'm reapplying this roller set.

I love social media! You will always find something new to do with your locks that is both creative yet very functional and cute. I release a "how to" post on this. If you want to view the video click here. Below are the Loc Knots result on my sisterlocks.

Loc Knots are another way to create beautiful curls, and at the same time have a unique style for a couple of days. This works well with long locks, but I was able to create the Loc Knots on my current length as well. Below are the step by step instructions. Note: This will take between 1-2 hours to do, so make sure you have a good movie to watch.

Material Needed
Spray Bottle or Setting Lotion (Optional)
Rubberband (Optional)

Step 1: Spray your locks until your locks are damp. You can also do this after you have washed your hair, but I highly recommend letting your locks air dry  a bit before doing this. Note: You don't want your locks to be dripping wet. It will take forever to dry, and it can also introduce mildew and add additional stress to the locks which is totally unnecessary.
Step 2: You going to do a simple twist from the root to the tip of your locks. Do not do these twists to tight, especially if you are against tight hair style. Note: If you have thicker locks, you can skip creating twists and just go to Step 3.
Step 3: You going to then bend your twist up about 3-4 inch (more if your locks are longer than mine, and less if your locks are shorter).You will have to remember to keep your finger in the hoop/bend area you just created. Then you going to wrap the twist you created in Step 2 in a downward motion and around those bended locks you just created.
Step 4: Once you have done wrapping your locks going downward, you going to stick the end of your locks through the hoop you created in step 3. You may or may not need a rubber band to keep them secure.
