Make the commitment your mission, longer, stronger tresses. Anything in life worth having takes time so be patient, long hair is socially powerful. It projects a wonderful image that says you are feminine, sensual and spiritual you go girl.
Growing with grace, making sure you keep a clean sharp look. Trimming ends on an AS NEEDED basis works well if growing long hair. Remember that you are paying for more than a trim, it is the tool your stylist is using and the skill that they have so do your homework.
When combing out long hair always start from the bottom and work your way up.
For emergency detangling use "My Mojo" oil and a wide toothcomb to release snarls and give comb ability.
Use gentle hair accessories! Do not contribute to more havoc on your gorgeous hair with dated metal ponytail bands. Toss them out and opt for ouchless METAL FREE hair bands plus they give a sleeker look when wearing a ponytail.
Braid long hair at night to avoid matting and tangles.
Replace implements often. Old combs and brushes can scratch the hairs cuticle causing unnecessary snags that lead to breakage... to avoid this replace synthetic combs every 3 months or so.
I Wash hair twice a week (before the cleaning it is a good idea to give your locks a pre shampoo treatment with our butters). On alternating days if a freshen up is needed re-condition. Always condition wet hair. It is a good idea to double condition long hair; this added step will help with tangles and give extra moisture leaving you with silky, smooth, soft hair. Recommended shampoo and conditioner:
Health is #1 for growing good hair. You can maximize your growth cycles by eating healthy, drinking plenty of water, exercise and taking the proper blend of vitamins.
Weekly hot oil treatments are a must for long mature hair! I indulge in this 100% saturating my hair in oil or butters then simply washing it out and re-moisturizing with Hair Envy our creamy stressed tress relief.
Leave conditioner in your hair over night for maximum moisture. Practice this 1-4 times a month for beautiful sexy hair that everyone will notice!!!
