Okay so let’s talk about how my partnership with my client Mary took us from here to here 💁🏾‍♀️

Normalize letting young Black girls cut their hair short. Stop being emotionally attached to the length of someone else’s hair.

The reasons why I don’t believe in curl typing.

Sometimes you can have different curls on the same hair strand.

She went from “3c” (zig zag) to “4c” (coil)

6 reasons why you don’t need to deep condition every wash day.

[Car-lisa @protectedbylisa]

1. Part your hair into smaller sections to define your curls after you’ve applied your gel.

This will help with the movement of your curls once they’re dry. Without separating them they’ll dry clumped together.

[Car-lisa @protectedbylisa]

3. Fully drying your hair helps the gel create a cast around your curls. This how you can get 5+ days out of a set.

Hooded dryer = minimal to no frizz & elongated set

Diffuser = minimal frizz & slight shrinkage

Air drying (esp. in cool climates) = shrinkage & frizz

[Car-lisa @protectedbylisa]

2. Add more water!

Most water based gels work best on damp hair.

Not enough water & too much gel = stiff set

Not enough gel & water = frizz & shrinkage & the set may not last long.

This may not apply to alcoholic based gels like ecostyler & wetline.

Also, growth rate is easily changed by diet, illness, medication, moving to a sunnier climate, pregnancy, and calorie restriction. Eating healthier and increasing metabolic output can absolutely increase your growth rate. Moderately, of course, but it can be increased.

3 ways to care for your natural hair underneath those headband wigs and wigs.

IDKWNTHTB, clean the filter on both your hood dryer and your blow dryer.

Haircuts are not just about split ends. They are used to create dramatic volume or decrease it. Create movement or reduce bulk. Slim or widen the face. Enhance or minimize profile. Some of y’all can’t get the look you want because you’re too concerned about losing length.

[🇪🇹From River To Sea @JenniferRoseNYC]

Volume and length aren’t synonymous, especially if you have fine hair. For my fro to be big, I MUST have short layers on top. Y’all need good haircuts, not just long hair.
