Love Almocado

I really like the personal touch that you get with this company. It is nice to know you are buying from a person who cares. I have tried the majority of products including the Buttermelt (love, seals in moisture but is not greasy) Herbal Hair Masque (gives my scalp a nice tingling sensation and still keeps my hair soft) and the coco curl moisture cream (love that it is thick but melts into the hair so well). I like that the benefits for each product are clearly explained and they are happy for you to get in touch with any questions. The delivery was quick and I was kept updated about the status of my order.

Immediate change in my hair

I’ve only used my leave-in conditioning milk a few times, but already I can see such a change in the texture of my hair, in particular the level of frizz. It also happens to smell incredible!

Best sisterlock shampoo!

I’ve been locked 7 months and I’ve used the sister lock starter shampoo and many others like Dr. Bonner’s, African black soap and even sauve but all left my hair with white film/residue. Almacado left my hair black and shiny it does not strip the hair dry but is clarifying. I love this shampoo and will definitely buy more. Shipping takes long but it’s worth the wait. Next time I’ll order in bulk because shipping is a pain but definitely 5 stars!! I would recommend this.

I love the products

I love the products. As a natural hair stylist i wish in the near future almacado offers salon size bottles of shampoo and conditioners like 32ozs. Especially with processing and shipping taking longer by me being in the US.

Amazing for healthy hair!

Hi, naturalist here! I used your deep conditioner last night and my hair feels so soft and moisturised this morning! My gel even slicked on easier than usual and did not have to use as much product. Can't wait to use it again and see the growth effects.

patience and gentle....just what I needed

My experience with sisterlocks has been checkered and I first came to Annette seeking advice. She was not only informative but gentle which was appreciated because I was not hearing good news!

When I came back to her to get my installation done she was again very informative and gentle, recognising I needed a soft and general approach.

Annette thank you for recognising what I needed and being patient when I was emotional. Thank you
