Healthy hair tips for beginners

1. Start with a fresh trim . If your hair ends are severely damaged cut off those thin, damaged and brittle ends. Broken ends which are severely damaged and thin cannot be made healthy again no matter what product you use. 2. Take hair pictures and start hair care journal . Write down your thoughts and feelings about your hair, hair goals and the time frame you want to achieve them? Do you desire thickness, length or both? Take pictures of your hair every month or every relaxer to monitor your hair's progress. 3. Clip those ends . Prevent split ends by clipping your ends at every 8 - 12 weeks depending with very sharp scissors. Clipping off 1/8 to 1/4 inch every 2-3 months will still allow you to retain length. 4. I shampoo atleast 1-2 per week. Dry hair needs moisture. For growth to occur, it is very important to keep your scalp clean and healthy. To prevent tangling, it is best to shampoo in the shower. Focus on the scalp and work your way through to the hair ends. Don&

Review:Micro braids

(taken the day before removal) I had micro braids in my hair from July/22/09 till 9/6/09. while the braids were in my hair I applied JBCO aroun my edge. The day before I removed the hair I cut the end of the weave then wet hair in the shower and  applied the SoftSheen Carson anti breakage stay strong conditioner to the hair from root to ends. wore a plastic shower cap overnight. The next day I removed the plastic cap and started removing the micro braids, which was very useful in reducing the amount of breakage. I washed my hair after and deep conditon. I wait ~1-2+ week before I got my relaxer This was a once in a lifetime time thing***neveragain*** IT TOOK 2 DAYS TO GET THEM IN :-(
