Why Your Hair Is Hard After Black Tea Rinse

As an avid reader of hair articles, am always eager to find solutions to stuff that don't turn out well when I want to practice what I read. Tea rinses have come to stay yet the problem lies with how the hair responds to each tea. The most common tea, the black one, seems to give most ladies a hard time by causing the hair to be hard and stiff after application. Well, I think I've found an answer to that!

--> All said and done, a lot of the goals couldn't be achieved last month - see goals here - because of the big chop The only goal I've been consistent with is using jbco on my edges and even the whole scalp daily.

What do I intend doing this month? Continue applying jbco daily Continue wigging whenever necessary-I'll share some pictures of my custom made lace wig in my next post Do another oil rinse  For now, these three will suffice as I can't really do much with the twa.
