Q&A with Touch of Heaven Salon


Yesterday, I attended the Q&A Session with Markeita of Touch of Heaven Salon hosted by Nappy Love Houston Natural Hair Meetup. Touch of Heaven Salon is a Multi-Textural salon located in Humble, Texas. The last time I attended an event in this salon was on International Natural Hair Meetup Day.

It was a pleasure meeting so many beautiful naturalistas and getting to hear all the questions they had. Markeita did a great job answering questions from how to care for Natural Hair as a newly natural, to colored natural hair maintenance.

Tyrika, owner of Mainelement, was the host of this program and she did a fabulous job making everyone feel welcome.

 
 

 
 
I always like it when there is a product swap at any Natural Hair event. If you ever go to an event, make sure to bring products that do not work for you; remember one person's product No-No is someone else's holy grail.
 




Meeting some of my subbies was the highlight of that evening!! I love you guys!!

    Product swaps give me life <3

    That's cool that you were able to meet some subbies. It's nice when social media translates to real life.

    I'm glad Markeita was knowledgeable. I've been to meetups before where I wondered if the speaker was randomly chosen from a phone book o_0

    What products did you pick up in the swap?

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. Minimize Heat Styling • Limit Heat Tools : Reduce the use of flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers. • Use Heat Protectant : When you do use heat tools, always apply a heat protectant to minimi
