Feeding Your Hair

PSA LADIES! CONDITION! CONDITION! CONDITION! 

Whether your natural, relaxed, or transitioning it is extremely important to condition your hair with the right nutrients after and between washes. I personally use a variety of different conditioning combinations. All of them are heavy with organic nutrients and vitamins used to make my hair healthier, reduce breakage and shedding, and enhance strength. Today I will be sharing one of my favorite deep-conditioning mix. Lately my natural hair has been frizzing up and becoming uncontrollable, it has also been shedding more than normal. I knew this was probably due to me constantly wearing sew-ins, taking them out, washing my hair, then putting them back in. I gave my hair no time to breathe and I wasn't able to moisturize as frequently as I should. I figure a quick solution to this problem was to gave my hair a break (of course) but first I needed to give it a good wash and deeeeeeep conditioning treatment. After washing my hair with Garnier Fructis Haircare Pure Clean Fortifying Shampoo I use my "Anti-frizz/shedding" mix.

Ingredients include:

• Pure soybean and extra virgin olive oil
• Twisted Sista de-frizz conditioner
• 1/4 cup of mayo
• 1 egg
• Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Treatment Masque

This combination controls frizz and prevents shedding in "MY" hair.

I detangle while the mixture is still in my hair and separate it by two-strand twisting in big sections. After I am done I place a disposable shower cap on my hair and secure it with an scarf tightly. This create a "greenhouse type of effect" . The heat created helps the mixture work more efficiently. In the morning I wash out the mixture and style as desired.

It is important that you find what combination work perfect for your type of hair. The most effective way of figuring this out is trial and error. A trick I use to to test my mix on one section of my hair overnight and see how it works.
