Hey everyone! I know it’s been a little while since my last post—we’ve been busy at NVLX Labs working hard behind the scenes. One of the most exciting updates is that we’re in the final stages of perfecting our Locs Loading Shampoo! But today, I want to dive into self-care routines that help healthy hair growth in ways you might not have heard before. Hair growth isn’t only about what you put on your hair—there’s a lot your whole body contributes.
1) Lymphatic Drainage Massage
This gentle technique helps reduce toxins and boosts circulation, which allows your scalp and follicles to thrive. With a well-functioning lymphatic system, waste clears efficiently and blood flow improves—great conditions for growth.Look for licensed massage therapists offering lymphatic or detoxifying treatments at local spas or wellness centers. At-home options exist on platforms like Soothe or Zeel.
2) Grounding (Earthing)
Walking barefoot on grass or sand can help reduce inflammation and balance your body’s natural energy. Better overall well-being indirectly supports hair growth.
3) Cold Showers (or Cold Rinses)
Finish your shower with a cold rinse to improve circulation to the scalp. Cold water helps tighten the cuticle, lock in moisture, and reduce breakage—leading to stronger growth. Even a quick cold rinse during shampooing helps your locs feel smoother over time.
4) Aromatherapy for Stress Relief
Stress is a major contributor to hair thinning (e.g., telogen effluvium). Incorporating essential oils such as lavender or rosemary can calm the mind and create a better environment for growth.
Our Lush Locs Hair Oil blends safflower, argan, pumpkin seed, and organic essential oils—nourishing the scalp while offering a soothing aromatic experience.
5) Sunlight Exposure (Vitamin D)
Sunlight helps your body produce vitamin D—important for follicle health. During winter, vitamin D may drop; a supplement can help maintain optimal levels (always balance sun with skin protection).
We’ve been working hard to perfect our new products and appreciate your continued support. Don’t miss our recent features and updates—more on the Locs Loading Shampoo launch soon!
