I spend a lot of time on my hair. I mean a lot. The time I invest in thinking about ways I could improve how I take care of/do my hair probably would take up at least 20% of my day. So throughout my post puberty hair discovery era, I have developed some techniques that have worked for me and made my life better and may do the same for you.
COCONUT FRIGGIN OIL
Seriously I can't even explain to you all of the things coconut oil has done for me and how much my life has improved through the use of coconut oil. When they find the cure for cancer I'm pretty sure it will involve coconut oil. But for now we;ll just talk about our use for it in hair. I use the solid form of coconut oil and apply it in my hair until it is completely soaked and leave it for about 30 minutes and then wash it off in the shower. let me just tell you now. after doing this my hair feels like mermaids came to me in the shower and they each donated a lock of their oh so perfect hair to my oh so not perfect hair seriously its that great. i know youre judging me but once you do it you will understand.
SCRUB A DUB DUBBING THAT SCALP
Recently I read something in a magazine about how I was washing my hair wrong so I repented and changed my ways, and I am now a much better person with a lot better hair. instead of doing circular strokes which apparently damage your hair you should do vertical and horizontal strokes. So I adopted this new and innovative method and i have noticed my hair has been growing faster and healthier and I completely recommend this technique
STIMULATE THAT SCALP
This one is super simple but it very helpful and good for you hair. Take time to carefully brush your hair morning and night this stimulates hair growth which means healthier hair which everyone wants so just do it and your hair will be the bomb dot com.
SMOOTHING SERUM AMAZINGNESS
About two years ago I began applying smoothing serum in my hair after I washed and it has made a huge difference in the manageability of my hair. It is so much softer and it curls easier; my natural hair also is a ton prettier and I have worn it natural more often since starting this. My favorite smoothing serum is Silk Infusion by Chi and it ranges from $25 to $43 (different sizes) and is worth every penny. I thinks it smells yummy which is important to me and it doesn't clash with shampoo scent at all.
COOL IT DOWN
I started to not use heat on my hair at least two days of the week and I try to preserve my hair when I do use heat for the next day so I only have to do touch ups. This has made my hair a lot healthier and it also has made me more creative with my hair and I have discovered really cute hairstyles because of it.
I hope you find these tips helpful. Thanks for reading
