African-American Women Hair Care Tips
For most African-American females, their hair is the most important thing in their lives and as such, it is very important that their hair be maintained in a well-kept manner. No matter what type of hairstyle, you as an African-American deserve to have the best hair possible. The tips below will show you how this can be done.
Too Much Heat?
• Before using a hair straightener, or another heated hair tool, wash and dry your hair thoroughly. If your hair becomes frizzled, do not do it again, as this will damage your hair.
• To retain the quality and shine of your hair, instead to using hair straighteners all the time, style your hair with buns, braid outs, and French rolls. This will put less stress on your hair and rest the follicles in your hair.
• Very important: Before you go to bed, wrap or pin your hair up in a scarf. This will protect it from being damaged while in bed. Plus, it keeps your hair smooth.
• Before you go to bed, if applicable, unwind your hair to let it rest. The best way to do this is by using a wide-toothed comb.
• At night, use a moisture solution (a hair oil or serum) to keep the ends of your hair straight and moist. This should be done before rolling or wrapping your hair in a scarf. This will keep it moist all night long.
Regular Maintenance
• To keep your hair smooth and shining, do not go longer than a week without washing your hair. If you do this, your hair will become very brittle and dry. If you believe that washing your hair on a regular basis is a bad thing, it is not. In fact, keeping your hair washed will make your hair to last longer and your hair will maintain its good smell.
• Around every 2-6 months, you should trim the ends of your hair. Doing this will keep it healthy and looking very nice.
Around every other week, with the use of a hooded hair dryer, you should deep condition your hair. The heat from the dryer will cause the conditioner in your hair to go right into your scalp.
