HEAT is The DEVIL!!!

Ok guys soooooo I have come to the conclusion that HEAT IS THE DEVIL when it comes to ur hair journey. Soooooo every wk as I said earlier I go to the salon and get my hair washed and set. Most times it takes about 45mins under the dryer to get my hair dry.
Here's what it looked like with a dryer set:

After doing this for 4wks I realized my hair was shedding and breaking a whole lot. Even with all my steaming and protein treatments nothing seamed to work. My hair felt dry and brittle. I realized that going under the dryer was practically frying my hair. My sister on the other hand was not experiencing this problem even at 6wks post relaxer. The difference was that she air drys her hair. So at 5wks I decided to air dry my hair after my wash and deep condition. Voala! The breakage reduced drastically I was amazed! Here's what it looked like air dried: So guys no more dryers for me. I will just let them put my hair in rollers at the salon , tie a scarf over it to secure my rollers and allow my hair air dry! I will be doing this for the next 6wks and see how it goes. I will definately let u guys know what the results are. If at all u have to use heat on ur hair never let it be more than twice a month and pls pls use a heat protectant! Remember heat is our enemy and moisture is our friend! Sooooo come on everyone let's grow naija hair.
Take care yall. Talk to u soon.

Relaxer Update

Hey guys its Aramide and I'm finally back again. Sorry its been so long since I did a post been sooooooooo busy. Ok so as u all know I have very coarse hair and I noticed that once I get to 5wks post relaxer my hair starts to break. I was then adviced by my hair stylist susan to relax my hair every 6wks as opposed to 8wks to avoid my hair from breaking. Soooooo guess what I'm trying to say guys is I relaxed my hair at 6wks this time! Sooooooo sorry. So I want to do a quick reveiw So during my 6wks I followed my regimen to a T. I took my vitamins and drank lots of water. I'm happy to say in 6wks I got 1 inch of growth. Watch the video to see the growth I could not believe it. Usually I would get like half an inch in this time frame. So definately something is working. I think applying castor oil to my scalp 3 times a wk really helped with the growth. Actually this time I will be using jamaican black castor oil which people swear by! Lol for faster growth and thicker hair. Plus I will be drinking moringa tea and eating a lot of fruits and vegetables. I want to see if I can get an inch and half growth this time in 6wks. Wish me luck guys. I will be putting up another post titled HEAT IS THE DEVIL. This is a must read! I've decided to cut out going under the dryer every wk during my wash and set and just air dry in my rollers. I will explain better in my post. So enjoy ur hair guys and remember naija hair can grow! So let's grow naija hair together.
