Co-washing? My take.
Co-washing. No Poo. No Shampoo Method. It comes as many names but basically means washing your hair with conditioner instead of shampoo (with or without adding things like baking soda to the mix). I have used it on and off over the years and provide a mixed review on my results.
Winterize Your Hair
Winter. No more damp hair, lots of hats, dry heating, snow... get your hair ready to cope with all of this and more.
Wigs, Weaves, Crochet Braids
Would you like to try a wig or a weave to rest your natural hair? Sometimes you just want a break from styling your natural hair. There are lots of reasons why.
Short Natural Hair. Care!
We all go through processes in our lives – some forced upon us, some we go through voluntarily and with a goal. But one thing is true of all processes; they have a preface, a story and an ending , just like a book.
Short. Sharp. Chic.
Chronicle of the Short Natural
My hair became badly damaged due to the effects of a general anesthetic during surgery on July 4th to repair my badly broken arm. It started slowly, about 3 weeks after the surgery. I had been following my No-Comb method and started noticing a lot of shedding whenever I detangled. At first I thought this shedding was due to me not combing my hair as often because of my broken arm which caused the shed hair to build up. But as the days turned into weeks, I noticed my hair getting shorter and shorter.
