    Default Volumizing Shampoo for locs.

    Hello Ladies, I haven't been here for a while now. I've had my mico braidlocs for 20 months now. They are fully loced, and growing like weeds, I love them and I'm not having any problems. I started off with very thin micro locs, and even though they are growing long, they are not getting any thicker and I was wondering if you ladies could suggest a good, not too expensive shampoo for thickness and more volume. Thanks in advance. Be Blessed.
    Oh give thanks unto The Lord, for he is good, yes, he is good.

    honestly I don't see a shampoo making your hair thicker. Those thickening shampoos are clever marketing and wishful thinking. Thickness is mainly based on genetics.

    Loose hair-yes you can use shampoos for volume-because it can help the hair shaft to swell and expand. For locks, you are locked into what the density of the follicles are along your scalp period. 'Howevs' you can have a hair piece made to fill in the sparse areas. My mother has thinning at the crown and we made one for her to affix throughout her scalp with a weaved net, secured under her established locks.

    Also, any fancy shampoo with thickening additives I would just avoid with locks. Build up is the devil with locks and those shampoos are full of agents that could contribute to that build up.
