Spring Clean Hair Products Routine

spring clean your hair routine

Clean up your act or your hair could suffer the consequences. It is almost a catch 22, we need products to help our hair look amazing yet those same products could also cause issues. Therefore, what can be done to ensure our hair routines stay on the positive end of things?

First, step is to take a quick look-see into the ingredients of your main hair products to see what’s really in them. Without you knowing it or being aware many styling products such as serums can contain silicon. Silicon products that are used in succession and often can cause build up on the hair that will need regular cleansing in order to remove. So then, whenever possible it is best to leave off from using styling products in order to give your hair a rest.

Moreover, like the seasons change your products should also change out from time to time. Sometimes hair can become used to a product resulting in that same product not being as effective. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to change shampoos occasionally to prevent such from occurring.

Bonus Tip: Many women and men included enjoy using moisture rich shampoos because of it’s nice thick lather. However, such a product is known to cause build up; so then, it is best to make the switch to milder PH balanced shampoos.

How to Comb Wet Natural Hair

How to comb wet natural hair-teyana taylor

Combing your hair correctly can save you a lot of pain and from breaking or snapping strands of your hair unnecessarily. First things first, you are the realest (sorry couldn’t help it LOL); secondly, keep in mind that combing wet strands has to be done systematically. Meaning you will need to comb hair in sections and in a manner that will lean more towards being gentle. As you work through sections start at the ends and work your way through to the roots.

What type of comb you use is also very important in the untangling process. Make sure that you use a comb that has wide teeth that are softly rounded. Such a comb will allow hair to pass through easier preventing more knots from being formed. Help your comb by also using your fingers to untangle tougher strands of hair that have become entwined. Lastly, using a detangler product or applying a leave-in conditioner will also help the comb slide with greater ease through your tresses.

How Much Hair Should You Lose Daily?

How much hair should you lose daily

Of course none of wish to lose our hair especially if the goal is to have fuller or longer hair. Hair growth depends on a number of factors, but constantly losing part of your locks could make it harder to see if any changes are occurring. Therefore, the question arises of how much hair loss on a daily basis is considered normal?

All of us on average have approximately 100,000 strands resting on our heads. Of these strands it is normal to lose between 40 to 100 hairs. This is true even if you have been taking excellent care of your tresses and are having a good hair day. If you find that you are losing or shedding more hair try changing up your deep conditioning routine and look into your diet. Moreover, hairstyling may also be a culprit of your hair loss. Tight braids, ponytails or chignons aka buns and any styles that maintain a constant pull on your hair could result in losing strands.

90’s Babies! Adidas Superstar Trainers S/S 2015

90's Babies Adidas Superstar Trainers S-S 2015

Okay so we are going to bust out with our knee high socks, plaid, chokers and scrunchie hair ties because Adidas is taking us back! Adidas’ spring 2015 ad campaign for their Superstar Trainers modernize the 90’s superstar girl group The Spice Girls. Back then girl power filled the air and it was all about being cute and cool with your friends because boys just…ya know, sucked (LOL).

Casting was done by Anti-Agency and the ad was shot by photographer Olivia Richardson. Everything about this campaign is just fresh to death making us want to “really really really wanna zigazag ha.” Ohhh, what you know about that? Other than proving that we still remember the lyrics to If You Wannabe My Lover we honestly have to say that Adidas has infused fun, excitement and good times back into shoe fashion.

Hair Notes: We are loving the thick braids, a departure from the super long as well as thin french braids that we have seen as of late and those baby hairs are beyond on fleek!

fashionable-mention-Umit-Benan-Men-2015-Spring-Summer-Collection-Paris-Fashion-Week

For today’s Get Your Man Right we pulled a look from the Umit Benan Spring/Summer 2015 Collection. As you notice it has a clean preppy style to it but is a step up from “Carlton of Fresh Prince of Bel Air” to more of Will Smith’s character’s style thanks to the added color in the sweater, pushed up sleeves and backwards hat. If your boy enjoys dressing in a little more upscale fashion but doesn’t want to lose his cool this is the perfect ensemble for him.
