What to do with natural curly hair that is going straight?

August 26th, 2010 2 comments

On the top of my head it is curly in the middle it is straight and at the ends of my hair it is curly again, it use to be really curly but now it seems to be gross, what can I do to make it all curly again?

It sounds to me like your hair is getting longer and the weight of your hair is actually straightening it out. You see the ends don’t have enough weight and the top rests on your head but the middle carries it’s own weight and the ends as well. If you want to keep all of you hair and keep it curly you are going to have to use a curl activator type gel and a stronger mousse or gel to keep it that way throughout the day.

What are some hair tips for natural curly hair?

August 16th, 2010 12 comments

I have a bi-racial background, and my hair is curly but frizzy all the time. Any good products or tips on taming the frizz and to have curly ringlets? Thanks!!!

separate your hair into sections after you have put your product of choice in I use organic leave in conditioner (tiny bit) and organic mousse then in sections (I do 10 sections) 2 in the front then 2 on each side and 4 in the back. Wrap the hair around your finger like a curling iron and hold for 10 seconds. let go and repeat. don’t mess with it later. You can finish with some hairspray but not much I use organic as well. Also don’t rub your hair with the towel just blot. Don’t put it up in the turban thing either makes it REALLY super frizzy. And don’t listen to the girl who said straighten it be yourself don’t try to be like everyone else.

I have natural curly hair and it is very healthy, but falls out in hand fulls in the shower.?

July 22nd, 2010 7 comments

is this natural for curly hair or should i do something about it?

I would say you need to change the shampoo and conditioner your using. I recommened moisturizing shampoo and maybe a ultra moisturizing conditioner. Look for wheat germ oil, shea butter & nut oils (macadamia, for example) in your shampoos.
Once a month use a hot oil treatment.

Do you know any great hairstyles for natural curly hair?

May 24th, 2010 10 comments

Any tips for NATURAL medium curly hair.

- Read the book and visit the sites below about curly hair. I did and my once horrible curly hair is now virtually frizz-free ringlets. Now I get compliments on my hair all the time! Straighten your hair- be happy for a day, learn to manage your curly hair- be happy for life!
– To style your hair using the curly-girl method you will need gel and conditioner at the minimum. Some less useful, but still nice stuff would be a blowdryer, a diffuser (reduces frizz in curly/wavy hair when used with dryer), and a microfiber hair turban (to dry wet hair while sleeping or in the morning).
-The main philosophy of the curly-girl method is to not use shampoo. This may sound unhygenic but it has actually made my hair less oily and dandruffy. Most shampoos contain some of the same chemicals found in laundry detergent (aka sulfates). They dry out curly hair. Also you shouldn’t brush your curly hair dry because it damages the hair and makes it poof.
– Massaging of the scalp with conditioner to remove dirt is all that is needed. It will clean everything but super clingy silicones. Then rinse and spread conditioner on the outside layer of hair and the hair at the nape of your neck. Gently comb tangles out with your fingers or a wide toothed comb and rinse with cold/cool water.
-Do not brush/comb your hair after this point because it wil disturb the curl pattern (make sure you already have a part). It is also important to use gel on sopping wet hair and scrunch the hair with your fingers. Use a towel or paper towels to gently scrunch some of the water out. Then let your hair air dry or wait ten minutes and then use a blowdryer with a diffuser. Do not touch the hair while it is air drying or it will frizz!
– Use a moisturizing conditioner, such as Desert Essence Organics Italian Red Grape Conditioner (found at health food/organic stores). The combo of products that I use daily is Garnier Fuctis Sleek and Shine Leave In Cream, then Aussie Tizz No Frizz Gel, and then Herbal Essences Set Me Up Gel but there are more conditioners, gels, etc. on the websites.
- "Strictly Curls" is a book about curly updos and such. Curly hair looks amazing long with layers. I like to sweep hair back with 2 crisscrossed bobby pins after parting my hair to the side. I also like to wear my hair half up and leave out individual curls to frame my face.
– Your hair may seem worse at first, but it is just adjusting. This takes 2 to 4 weeks begin working.This is hard to do if you don’t read the book, or at least visit the websites. Naturally curly hair can be beautiful! Hope this helps!
