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.

During your hair wash day, using a deep conditioner after shampooing can help soften your hair. 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.

Never allow your hair to get dry, check it daily to see if it is moisturized.

Dry hair will break (cut). Hair that breaks will not retain growth so it will seem as if your hair is not growing.

  Get To Know Me My name is Sola Awe and I am so happy you found this page. I am a licensed hair coach and have been a natural hair enthusiast since 2011 after I decided to transition my oldest daughter to natural hair. I have two daughters who are both natural and lovers of natural hair. My husband is also an advocate in his own way. I have a presence on social media as DiscoveringNatural that is dedicated to helping people be comfortable with their natural hair and learn how to easily care for it.  As a child, natural hair was not embraced and when I became an adult, I struggled with understanding my hair. When my oldest daughter was 4, I struggled with caring for her hair and did not have any resource to help me out, so I decided to relax her hair. After a friend invited me a natural hair event in Houston, Texas, where I reside, I knew I have found a new passion. The next day, we started my daughter's transition to natural and I followed afterwards with mine. When I discove...

Does having lots of hair on your arm means long hair on your head?

  No, having a lot of hair on your arms doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have long hair on your head. Hair growth patterns, thickness, and length on different parts of the body are influenced by factors such as genetics, hormones, and individual biology. For example: • Hair on arms is usually vellus or terminal hair, which grows to a certain length and then stops. • Scalp hair grows continuously in a cycle (anagen, catagen, telogen phases), allowing it to become much longer than body hair. While genetics may influence both arm and scalp hair characteristics, they don’t directly determine the length of one based on the other.
