Products do not work until you use them
Posted by Main Admin on
Aside using the products, it is important to treat your hair well. Bad hair practices such as keeping in protective styles for weeks on end, ALWAYS wearing wigs, not moisturizing well, installing protective styles back to back should be a thing of the past. Good hair practices and good products go hand in hand if the goal is to grow healthy hair. There are no short cuts. You have to put in the work.

Has my hair stopped growing?
Posted by Main Admin on
Ditch your regular towel and replace it with a micro fibre towel after washing. Cotton towels pull on your hair. Detangle gently with your fingers or a wide tooth comb. You're likely to damage your hair if you don't detangle the right way. Try as much as possible to reduce using heat on your hair. If you're fond of experimenting with dyes and harsh chemicals, you might want to slow down a bit.

Taking Care of Your Edges
Posted by Main Admin on
Tight braids, twists and styles that generally pull so hard on your edges is the major cause of thin edges. Using too many styling tools such as hair glues on your edges also causes it to thin over time. If care isn't taken, you develop a condition known as traction alopecia which becomes very difficult to grow back but not impossible.

Let's Talk About Natural Hair Shrinkage
Posted by Main Admin on
Interestingly, our hair shrinks when it loses moisture. To an extent shrinkage is more of an alarm blower to let us know it's time to hydrate our hair. It also aids us in identifying our hair porosity or how well our hair retains moisture. So shrinkage isn't such a bad thing afterall.
