HAIR CARE TIPS WHY BE NATURAL? Relaxers have been a long time way of life for African American women. Why not? It provides the silky straightness so many of us desire. However, we fail to realize that we were also paying a high price – scalp irritation, hair breakage and, in some cases, permanent hair follicle damage. Just in case you didn’t know, the perm/relaxer was invented in 1910 by an African American man, Garrett Augustus Morgan, attempting to create a product for a sewing machine shop. After wiping his hand on a wool cloth he found that the chemical gave the cloth a smooth look – with a different ‘feel’. Sadly though, this same chemical is used to manufacture drain cleaners to unclog sinks and to remove fur from animals in the leather making industry, and we’ve been using it to straighten our hair. Simple and helpful tips to help begin and maintain your natural hair include: - Gently cleanse (not strip) with a Sulfate Free Shampoo - Detangle with fingers before washing - Gently detangle with wide tooth comb in shower Condition - Deep condition (periodic protein treatments) at least once weekly - Leave-In Conditioner - Moisturize - Section hair to apply leave-in conditioner, moisturizer - Style with styling aid; NO MINERAL OIL OR PETROLEUM - Air dry or on low to medium heat (no high heat) - Moisturize twice daily (AM and PM) to save hair ends - Sleep with a satin cap/pillowcase - UV Protection (especially during the Summer) - Protect ends from purse straps, book sacks, chairs, seatbelts, etc. - Keep hair CLEAN – water is our friend (once to twice weekly) - Use protein, as needed (more often if coloring hair) And for those who want 100% virgin human hairs .. - Soft, no tangle, no shedding ..
