HOW TO DO BANTU KNOTS OUT ON NATURAL HAIR (TWO STRANDS TWISTS)

In the last video , I showed how to do a twisted bantu knots out that makes your natural hair curly. This Curly Hair Bantu Knot Out style is great for people that want to go natural or that are transitioning to natural hair.  It is important to not have dry natural hair by making sure that your hair is moisturized using the LOC method or the LCO method. In addition, always make sure your hair is dry before undoing the knots / chiney bumps. This quick hairstyle can be restyled into afro puff, mohawk, a side puff or even a curly ponytail.  If you know how to twist natural hair, then you are able to recreate this style. Doing simple natural hair hairstyle like this can help with length retention and growing natural hair long.

HOW TO FINGER COMB NATURAL HAIR FOR LENGTH RETENTION

Image
In this video, I show you how to Finger Comb your Natural Hair. This is different from Finger Detangling. When you finger comb, you are styling the hair, whereas, when you finger detangle, you are detangling the hair to wash your natural hair. Finger combing natural hair helps to retain length which shows how to grow your natural hair. This method works perfectly for Transitioning Hair. It reduces breakage on the hair and also split ends caused by using a tool . HOW TO FINGER COMB NATURAL HAIR: Step 1: Make sure that hair is sectioned into workable parts Step 2: Moisturize your hair using the LOC method or the LCO method. Try not to saturate the hair with too much water. Doing so will cause shrinkage and further knots and tangles. Step 3: Working from the ends of your hair to the roots of your hair, use your fingers like a comb and comb through. Step 4: Shape your afro to the size you want I used Eden Bodyworks Coconut Shea Curl Defining Creme. I bought this from Walmart but

THE BEST MOISTURISER and CONDITIONER for Your NATURAL HAIR KIDS

Image
This is one question that gets asked over and over again. The answer is not so straight forward. It is like asking what is the BEST FOOD for YOU? As you can predict, it will depend on what you like to eat, if you are allergic to the food, what is available in your area Until you try it, you will not know. The same thing goes for hair. When it comes to hair and product choices, It depends on your hair porosity, texture and density. My youngest daughter is high porosity, medium density and coily-kinky texture and products that contain apple cider vinegar works great on her hair. My other daughter is medium porosity, high density and kinky texture, any creamy product works great on her, Sheamoisture, Eden Bodyworks, Cantu and My DNA. #AnythingGOES For myself with medium porosity, high density, coil-kinky textured, I also prefer creamy products. Pretty much anything that is not too liquid-y. Any of them would be water-based. Product choices also depends on what y

Hair Loss and Hair Thinning | Natural Hair | Pura D'or

Image
Last year and this year, I focused on showing your homeopathic ways of reducing hair loss and thinning from excessive shedding. I used Black Tea and Coffee Rinses to demonstrate that it is possible to slow down shedding using these ingredients. In 2017, I will focus more on products that contain DHT blockers, similar to what Black Tea and Coffee's have. What are DHT blockers? DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, is an androgen hormone formed when testosterone interacts with the enzyme 5-alpha reductase. It is also the hormone responsible for androgenetic alopecia, or male pattern hair loss and female pattern hair loss, on account of how it causes follicular miniaturization. DHT has the ability to shrink hair follicles. This causes healthy hair's life cycle to be shortened. When you use ingredients that have DHT blockers in them like Black Tea and Coffee which contains caffeine, it has the ability to block the damaging effect of DHT.

HOW TO GET RID OF TINY BUMPS ON FOREHEAD in 10 DAYS | Acne, Pimple, Rashes I KIDS and ADULTS

Image
Since summer of this year, Lil Sis has had these tiny bumps on her forehead. At first, I thought it was some allergic reaction to yeast or gluten product. I also thought it was subclinical acne, but knowing that she was not old enough to that, I thought it was rashes. After doing my research, I found outthat these small bump on forehead were Pitryosporum Folliculitis. What is Pitryosporum Folliculitis Pityrosporum folliculitis is a condition where the yeast, pityrosporum, gets down into the hair follicles and multiplies, setting up an itchy, acne-like eruption. Pityrosporum folliculitis sometimes turns out to be the reason a case of acne isn't getting better after being on antibiotics for months. It is especially common in the cape distribution (upper chest, upper back) and the pimples are pinhead sized and uniform. We went to Target to but Nizoral A-D Ketoconazole 1% Anti-Dandruff Shampoo. This product also controls flaking, scaling and itching on scalp. You can buy it
