Have you ever felt like your hair growth has come to complete halt? Many of us have gone through this at one time or another in our natural hair journey. The fact is, your hair is always growing but you may not be retaining length. In other words, just as fast as it grows, it breaks, creating the illusion of stunted growth. Here are five things to consider: Lack of Moisture Because our strands have twists, bends and curls, it’s much harder for the natural oil, sebum, to travel the entire length of the hair shaft from root to tip than it would for someone with naturally straight hair. So we need some help.

I understand… sometimes our hair needs a break or we may want to make life a bit easier by installing a weave. Thing is, while they can be cute, some of us forget that we actually have hair under there!

No bueno, kids! You MUST take care of your OWN hair, even especially when you were weaves and wigs. That closed-in environment can become a hotbed for bacteria and fungus! Leaving your hair to its own devices can lead to buildup of excessive dandruff and more serious issues like hair loss and infections. PLEASE, regularly cleanse, condition and moisturize your hair and scalp. But some may wonder… How Is That…

Quite a few of us naturals may run away from breaking a sweat just because we wanna keep our style du jour lookin’ good. Truth is, that cute coiffure may be all for naught if you don’t take care of your body and exercise! Yes, regular exercise is, of course, an essential part of overall health which means your hair will have no choice but to benefit as well! Another Benefit Stress is a huge cause of hair loss in many. I can certainly attest to that fact! But besides the effect it has on our hair, no one wants to be stressed in the first place, am I right? Well, exercise helps reduce stress significantly so you’ll not only look good but you’ll feel good too! No one’s saying you need to get up tomorrow and run a 5K or do 300 sit-ups every morning. If you’re not used…
