Friday Fun: Natural Hair for Dolls

 My girls have lots of barbie dolls that they play with everyday.  Most of their dolls have straight hair and not curly or kinky hair. I saw this blog post on Beads, Braids and Beyond that showed step by step instructions on how to make straight haired dolls into curly, coily, kinky hair. 
Check out how I did this, by clicking here.

Why Is My Hair Thinning In One Area

If the thin hair has always been thin, it could be the nature of your hair follicles where you have that fewer number in that area versus other parts of your hair. The only way to know the viability of your hair follicles is to see a trichologist. If a trichologist says they are viable, he or she can suggest treatments. You could also try massaging with growth oils. If that area is where you pulled hair from the most, the follicles could be damaged but only a trichologist can test that area.

 Is Your Hair Very Dry? Here is what you can do. When you wash your hair, use a moisturizing deep conditioner after shampooing.

Why Your Hair Pains You When You Comb It

  QOTD : Please my natural hair pains me so much while combing and it's very dry. ANSWER : When you comb your hair, start of by spraying it with a little water. Then divide it into sections. Apply a moisturizer to each section and then you can divide those sections and then take a wide tooth comb and gently comb from ends of hair to the root. After combing each section twist it before proceeding to the next. Untwist each section when done if you want to wear your hair out in an Afro.

Also using a leave in conditioner after your final rinse can help too. If you are not moisturizing your hair regularly, your hair will be dry. Oils are not moisturizers. Use a creamy moisturizer instead and then an oil afterwards if needed to seal the hair.  How to moisturize:    https://youtu.be/-0ta-PH6vV0 Never allow your hair to get dry, check it daily to see if
