This version is designed to protect the integrity of locs while still delivering medicinal scalp care.
Preparation Differences
Prepare marshmallow root and slippery elm tea the same way.
Strain the tea completely to ensure no herbal particles remain.
Add all ingredients to a double boiler as above.
While still very warm:
Sift through a fine mesh strainer
Then strain again through a nut-milk bag
This will significantly reduce herbal residue.
How to Use on Locs
Apply ONLY to the scalp.
Use your preferred loc-safe shampoo on the loced strands.
Rinse with warm water.
Follow with a natural conditioner to lock in moisture and prevent breakage.

Our Philosophy
We do not cleanse simply to wash. We cleanse to restore, nourish and replenish the crown, protect our follicles, and honor the science woven into Black hair. Every ingredient in this ritual serves a biological, spiritual, and botanical purpose.
Because when the scalp is healthy ,the strand is strong. When the strand is strong, the crown stands tall. #BLACKISBEAUTIFUL #AFROLOVE
