What Is The Best Protective Style For Your Hair?

By
There is so much hype about protective styling as well as misconceptions about it. 

We have unique genetic make up, texture, strands, density and live in different environment. What will work for me might not work for you. However, there is one particular style that works so well for both natural and relaxed hair. I've seen a lot of YouTubers and bloggers who hardly use extensions yet are able to retain length.

Today's post is dedicated to hair buns! I always advise those beginning their hair journey to fall on this protective style for many reasons

*Access to your hair and scalp daily
*Moisturizing is easier
*Less damage to edges
*Ability to practice and use different techniques.
*Cost effective
*Requires less time and effort


Another observation is those who use extensions are mainly those who've mastered their routines and know the CORRECT way to use these extensions, especially wigs! Therefore, if you've just started your hair journey, go easy on extensions!

When you wear buns, it allows you to also play around with your wash day. You are able to use a variety of products and techniques since you have access to your hair and scalp.

Lastly, buns still keep your ends protected hence you still retain so much length!

Give buns a try!

The longer your hair gets, the more you ought to protect the older parts because they tend to thin out so easily and break off more. The first step is fortifying the hair. Fortunately, new technology has allowed us to have a mirad of choices especially for bond menders. Olaplex No. 0 or No. 3 and Creme of Nature have great bond menders can be applied along with your Vaseline to buffer the hair against relaxer run off. Secondly, the relaxer application itself can make or break your effort. I've had several complaints about thin hair and for the most part, it has to do with the hair dresser using fine tooth comb to pass the relaxer through the hair. This moment is extremely crucial if you want thicker relaxed hair. Know your hair texture before you allow them to use that comb. Personally, when they pass the relaxer through the hair and comb through, I make them rinse off immediately. I DON'T sit and wait again for the cream to process. My hair becomes straight enough!

To wash the hair, I'd contemplated on using green tea rinse but I decided to use the rice water instead to strengthen the hair. Last week,I had severe shedding as a result of *lack if treatment *. I used the creme of nature plex bond mender to prepoo the hair and I experienced little shedding afterwards. I shampooed with African pride 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner, rinsed and applied the rice wster Revitalising rinse for 5 minutes. I washed it out with cokd water and deep conditioned with Difeel Biotin Pro Growth Mask for 7 minutes before washing off with cold water. To dry the hair, I use flexi rods after applying Kinks and Straight hair moisturizer and Jamaican black castor oil. For the next wash, I'll do Moringa tea rinse. Stay tuned for how it is done!

Reasons Why Your Hair Is Shedding

Shedding is a major concern for everyone. Getting the length you desire can be a daunting task and to lose the length  you've worked  to achieve is equally too painful to bear. What I've noticed is people fail to understand the link between your general health and the health of your hair. What you put into your body affects your whole body, including your hair! Shedding doesn't happen overnight - your hair will give you signs that something is wrong; we don't pay attention until it gets worse! 1. Postpartum shedding: I get this complains a lot and get surprised that though ladies are aware of how having a baby affects your hair, it seems reading about it isn't part of the solution we want. The first thing I urge people to do is to Google their problems. When you have a fair idea of what you are experiencing, you are able to either decide on taking the medical route or self - care route. There are situations that merit a visit to the Doctor's office and if you do
