Check the Bottle to Avoid Dry Hair

Dry Hair

 

Hair Quickie: Always check the list of ingredients on the back of your hair products to avoid needlessly drying out your hair. Avoid products that contain alcohol or sulphur that can dry out your tresses leaving them damaged and brittle. Serums, gels, mousse and hair sprays  may include such ingredients; therefore, avoid completely or keep your use of such products to a minimum.

Ciara’s Wild New Hair

Ciara

 

For months now, Ciara has been a blonde who is having much fun preparing to be a mom. However, CiCi posted a picture for her adoring fans showcasing her new hair look, which she described as ‘wild.’ Ciara’s long and full beach-y waves are definitely on trend for this season and the highlights complement her skin tone very nicely.  We always love how Ciara styles her locks, but this wild child look is definitely a keeper.

Quick and Easy Hairstyles for Active Ladies

Quick and Easy Hairstyles for Active Ladies

Whether you are playing a sport or working out at the gym, figuring out what to do with your hair can be a pain in the neck. Here a few quick styles that will work for any active woman.

  1. Some up and some down ponytail. Take the top part of your hair and secure it with a clip while leaving the rest down in the back.
  2. French Braid. You can braid one straight down your head or do one on each side of the head. Secure the braid with a hairband.
  3. Braided Bun. Create a messy bun and leave one piece of hair out. Braid the piece of hair and then wrap it around the bun and secure it with a headband.
  4. Fishtail Braid. Separate your hair into two even sections. Take a portion from the left and bring it to the right; then take a portion from the right and bring it to the left. Continue alternating until you reach the end and secure with a hairband.

Black Hair Growth: Don’t Forget the Vitamin D

Serena Williams Hair

Healthy hair growth always seems to be a hot topic among black women. We all seem to know the basics: eat right, massage the scalp and keep heat styling to a minimum. However, there’s smaller tips and tricks that shouldn’t be ignored either.

Never forget that it may not seem like it, but your hair is in fact always growing. It’s things such as breakage and hair thinning that can make it seem like your tresses are constantly remaining in the same state. A lesser known cause for hair thinning is a deficiency of Vitamin D. Sadly, studies are showing more and more than many suffer from a Vitamin D deficiency.

Vitamin D has a direct baring on hair growth. If you fail to take in enough Vitamin D, your hair growth may become stunted and hair shedding will increase. So then, do not stunt the growth of your locks by forgetting the Vitamin D.

Not Sure How to Get Your Vitamin D? Of course you can get the majority of what you need from our wonderful sun up in the sky. Nevertheless, the rest can be consumed through the foods that you eat.

2014 Hair Trend: Get The Wet Look of Spring 2014 Ready-to-Wear 3.1 Phillip Lim Collection

The Spring 2014 Ready-to-Wear 3.1 Phillip Lim Collection was all about the Wet Look. If you have a perm or have a less curly texture this is a great trend to try. To get this look try Eco Styler Moroccan Argan Oil Styling. But make sure you don’t over do it because it can cake up your hair and look very flaky. Another alternative is to wear extensions or a sew-in, this way your natural hair is not taxed by the hair products and gives you a protective hair style while still staying in trend.
