Pre Relaxer wash day

Hey dearies!!! Hope you had a fantastic week.
This week has been somehow for my hair. I did a braid out and it turned out ok, but it rained heavily a few days later and all the humidity just made the curls fall apart. I attempted to put my hair in a high bun but my 2 inches+ of new growth just made it look puffy. Seriously, my hair looks like I’m on a long-term transition. It was driving me crazy.  Frustrated, I decided to wig it till relaxer day. But I need to wash my hair first.

Hairspeak

Hey everyone!! Hope we all good?
I decided to do a post on all the terms used in healthy hair care to help all the newbies in their hhj.
Who has read the book 1984 by George Orwell? (FYI, I love classic literature: Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen etc.). Anyway, in the book, the world is ruled by a dictator named Big Brother. So a new language is formed called NEWSPEAK, while the old language people spoke before Big Brother took over is called OLDSPEAK. So from this analogy comes HAIRSPEAK!!!
Hairspeak: all the words, terms and lingua used in healthy hair care.

Wash day- 14 weeks post

Hey everyone!! Hope youre all having a great weekend!!
I had my hair in a sock bun all week( I am such a lazy stylist). It was an amazing protective style; I didn’t need to comb or even restyle my hair each day(though I got caught in rain once and had to let my hair down to dry). In the morning; I just applied some gel to my edges, brushed it with an old toothbrush and dashed out the door. Here’s how my wash day went:

The Dos of Healthy hair care-Part 1

There are two ways to achieving long hair: Hair growth and Length retention. Unless you have a medical condition that prevents hair from growing, your hair GROWS. It may be slow, but it surely grows!!  The fact that you need to relax your hair consistently proves it (if your hair is relaxed, that is). So you ask, if my hair grows, how come it isn’t, you know, like butt-length long? Well, my dear, the problem is two words: LENGTH RETENTION. The reason your hair is stuck on the same length month after month, year after year, is because you haven’t mastered the art of retaining the length you grow. But dear, look no further!! I’ll be doing a Healthy Hair care series to help you learn how to retain length. I’ll be dividing the series into parts (to prevent information overload) and it’s in two phases: The Dos of Healthy Hair care and the Don’ts of Healthy Hair care. So here is (drumroll)
