Natural Hair 101 -What Every Women with Natural Hair Needs To Know!!!


Hair Tools

Tools include a wide tooth comb and Denman Brush which optional but I feel necessary. If your hair is short you can very easily manages curls by finger combing.

If your hair is medium length or long you'll need hair clips such as duck bill clips to section the hair for detangling and styling. Hair Accessories are a necessity.

Cleansing

Shampooing with shampoos that contain harsh detergents such as sodium lauryl sulfate or laureth sulfate can be drying and should only be used maybe once a month (if at all). In the meantime you can use baking soda and apple cider vinegar (dilute & rinse well with water) or just use a conditioner for a co-wash. There are some natural shampoos such as glycerin based shampoo or Castile soap but I still do not recommend the use of these products on a daily basis.

As well as cleansing creams such as Curls Cleansing Cream which is very gentle and moisturizes instead of removing natural hair oils. These gentle cleanser can be used daily if you prefered.

Deep Condition

Should be done about once a week or every two weeks with a deep conditioner such as Hair Mayonnaise and/or Olive oil as a hot oil treatment.

Moisturize

Use Shea butter and good a leave-in conditioner I recommend Giovanni products. Creamy moisturizer such as Carol's Daughter Hair Milk is great for all types of hair and a curl aid. I spray a little braid sheen or water with olive oil and vegetable glyerin in my hair daily.

At Night

Make sure you sleep on a satin or silk pillow case or tie your hair up with
satin or silk scarf/bonnet. This is help you retain moisture and keep hair from snagging and then breaking.
