Wash Day Diary: August 4th 2014 : Listen To Your Hair

Natural Hair Protective Styles

Lately, I have been playing in my hair A LOT!! And my hair has been responding back with not so nice stuff. Therefore it was time to tuck her away for a week... see if I can last Ha!

We were in the pool yesterday with friends and although I did not get my hair wet, the heat was brutal and my hair was fried!
 

I decided to pre-poo overnight with Extra Virgin Coconut Oil  and V05 Strengthening Conditioner.

12 hours later...yeah... I got busy...

I rinsed it off and used the SheaMoisture Purification Masque to co-wash and do a 5-mins conditioning.

    I'm the laziest natural on the block. I wash my hair once a month which is perfect for me cos I do not use a lot of products. On wash day, I apply all I can get my hands on and that's it until next wash. Daily, I use my spray mix of water, aloe juice and glycerin. Sometimes only water. I recently started installing yarn day after wash day. I want to start trying a prepoo tho with coconut oil.

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
