• Natural Hair FAQs

  How can I make my natural hair grow faster?

  • Answer: Healthy hair growth starts from within, your diet. Ensure you are getting a well-balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, particularly biotin, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids. Regularly moisturizing your hair, minimizing heat styling, and protecting it with low-manipulation hairstyles can also promote growth.

• What products do I need to make my hair grow?

  • Answer: Look for products that contain ingredients that are specific to what your hair requires. Example: Rosemary, Castor Oil, Saw Palmetto (Not all inclusive) - these ingredients are known to stimulate the scalp and promote hair growth. A good regimen includes a gentle cleanser, a deep conditioner, a leave-in conditioner, and scalp treatments.

• How often should I wash my natural hair?

  • Answer: It depends on your hair type and lifestyle, but generally, washing your natural hair once a week or every two weeks is sufficient. Over-washing can strip your hair of its natural oils, leading to dryness and breakage.

• Does cutting my hair make it grow faster?

  • Answer: Trimming your hair doesn't make it grow faster, but it does help to remove split ends and reduce breakage, which can make your hair appear healthier and longer over time.

• How can I deal with shrinkage and frizz?

  • Answer: To manage shrinkage, try stretching techniques like twist-outs, braid-outs, or banding. To combat frizz, use products that provide moisture and seal the hair cuticle, such as leave-in conditioners and anti-frizz serums.

• Is heat good for natural hair?

  • Answer: Excessive heat can damage natural hair, causing dryness and breakage. If you use heat, always apply a heat protectant and use tools on a low to medium setting. Limit heat styling to reduce the risk of damage.

• How can I maintain my natural curls when it dries?

  • Answer: To maintain your curls, use a leave-in conditioner and a curl-defining cream or gel. Avoid touching your hair while it dries, as this can cause frizz. Pineapple your hair at night or use a satin bonnet to preserve your curls.

• Can natural hair have split ends?

  • Answer: Yes, natural hair can develop split ends. Regular trims, deep conditioning treatments, and minimizing heat and chemical exposure can help prevent split ends.

• Does natural hair shed a lot?

  • Answer: Shedding is a normal part of the hair growth cycle. On average, it's normal to shed 50-100 hairs per day. If you notice excessive shedding, it may be due to stress, hormonal changes, or a lack of nutrients. Always consult with your Medical Provider.

• What is the best way to detangle natural hair?

  • Answer: Detangle your hair when it's damp or saturated with a conditioner. Use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to gently work through knots, starting from the ends and working your way up to the roots.

• How can I soften rough and curly hair?

  • Answer: Regular deep conditioning treatments and leave-in conditioners can help soften rough and curly hair. Most people can look for products with ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and glycerin for added moisture and softness.

• Can I make my curly hair straighten naturally?

  • Answer: Natural methods, such as twist-outs, roller sets, or wrapping your hair, can stretch and slightly straighten your curls. However, for completely straight hair, heat or chemical treatments are usually required.

• Is it expensive to maintain natural hair?

  • Answer: It can be, but it doesn't have to be. Investing in quality products and tools can save money in the long run. We offer services and products to help alleviate some of your costly concerns.

• What are some good protective hairstyles for natural hair?

  • Answer: Braids, twists, bantu knots, buns, and updos are great protective styles. These styles help minimize manipulation and protect your ends, promoting hair growth and preventing breakage.
