One mistake I made was going with the African notion that Afro hair doesn’t need to be washed frequently. So I’d go weeks or over a month without washing my hair not knowing that I am depriving my hair of the moisture it desperately needs…
Omg yes! Not only the moisture it needs but your scalp needs to be clean in order for your hair to have the best environment to thrive.
I believe afro hair doesn't need to be washed frequently meaning I rarely ever use shampoo. However, it does need to be watered as our natural hair is a plant. You just can't go weeks or months without watering a flower or it will wither, but as far as soap and products go I try to go all natural and use them very minimally
I’m also guilty of neglecting my hair when it’s braided 😢. This habit stops TODAY
Haha yes we have all been there! But we try to do better next time :)
I have been natural my entire life and my hair has been long and thick. I was tailbone almost hip length. I broke 2disc in my back and was laid up and in wheelchair for 3yrs. My diet was whatever i could get mostly junk. I decided to flat iron my hair and got heat damage and had to cut my hair to above bra strap. Years later i had 2 spine surgery and i did not know surgery can cause hair loss. Then i recently got heat damage from blow dryer bcus i did not know that my hair was weak from aging. I had no idea hair gets weak as we age. So im on another journey to healthy hair. I no longer comb hair wet or detangle wet. I must be extra gentle now that I know my hair is prone to breakage and i will start using olaplex and product with strengthening.
Oh wow I had no idea that surgery can cause hair loss! I hope you are doing much better now :) I have heard Olaplex products are really good and I also wanted to try give them a try especially the protein treament. All the best on this new healthy hair journey! We are all in it together.
I went to the beautician for a silk press and she was really rough with my hair when blow drying and literally half my hair was on the floor.
😮😳 ohh no! That really sucks! You would expect them to understand natural hair right?! I hope your hair is on the mend now
Hi sis i made a mistake too put oil mosturizer on my little girls hair and her hair broke off now i am trying to just put grease in her hair i am from south africa what can i do must i cut it again or what
Hi sis! Oils and grease can cause more breakage if not applied properly because they prevent moisture from entering the hair shaft. You always want to make sure the hair is well hydrated (even water is fine) before applying any type of oils on top. I hope this helps 💕
Is she’s butter mixed with jojnop oil sprayed with water first ok?
I’m guessing yes!
Yes sis 😊
Thank you
