Liquid vs Creamy Leave In Conditioner

Using a leave in conditioner is essential to your moisturizing hair regimen post wash. I usually use a creamy conditioner, but decided to use a liquid leave in conditioner on my last wash day. Click to watch my vlog about my wash day.

Why do I use a creamy conditioner?
 If your hair has a fine texture, then choose the liquid conditioner. For thick and coarser hair, a creamier leave-in will work better - Choosing the right conditioner

I used the CURLS Cashmere Curls Leave In conditioner, which is a liquid leave in conditioner. My hair DID not like it.
My hair did not feel moisturized, and it seem like the combination of this leave in with the Curls Cashmere Jelly, made my hair a greasy mess. When I use the Giovanni Leave In Conditioner  (a cream based product) with the Curls Cashmere Jelly, it works great.

 So, my hair does prefer creamy leave in.

      You should try Giovanni Direct Leave In or Shea Moisture Curl and Style Milk. I prefer the Shea Moisture.

What to do if it seems like your natural hair is not growing

Image
@breezyspuffs (IG) If it feels like your hair isn’t growing, the issue may not actually be growth itself—hair grows about half an inch per month on average. The problem may be breakage, slow growth, or factors that hinder visible length retention. Here’s what you can do to promote healthier, stronger growth: 1. Check Your Routine for Breakage Causes: • Reduce heat styling: Excessive use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow-dryers can damage hair. Try air-drying or using lower heat settings and always use a heat protectant. • Limit chemical treatments: Frequent coloring, perming, or relaxing can weaken hair, leading to breakage. • Be gentle when detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb and start from the ends, working your way up to avoid pulling and snapping. 2. Moisturize Regularly: • Dry hair is more prone to breakage, so keep it hydrated. Use moisturizing conditioners, deep conditioners, or hair masks weekly, and consider leave-in conditioners or oils like coconut

How to get rid of split ends in Natural Hair

  @breezyspuffs (IG) Getting rid of split ends in natural hair involves a combination of good hair care practices and regular maintenance. Here are some effective ways to manage and reduce split ends: 1. Trim Regularly • Schedule Regular Trims : Every 8-12 weeks, visit a professional stylist or trim your hair at home with sharp hair-cutting shears to remove split ends. • Search and Destroy Method : If you prefer not to cut your hair often, this method involves trimming individual split ends as you spot them. 2. Moisturize Your Hair • Use a Deep Conditioner : Regular deep conditioning helps retain moisture, making hair less prone to splitting. • Leave-in Conditioner : Apply a leave-in conditioner after washing to maintain hydration throughout the day. 3.
