✨ Steaming: The Hydration Game-Changer for Natur

✨ Steaming: The Hydration Game-Changer for Natural Hair ✨

As a low-porosity natural, I used to struggle with dry, brittle hair no matter how much product I used. Then I discovered steaming, and everything changed! 💧

Here’s why it works:
🔥 Opens up hair cuticles for deeper moisture penetration
🌿 Helps products absorb better, especially on low-porosity hair
💪 Reduces breakage and improves elasticity
💦 Keeps your hair hydrated longer for softer, stronger curls

If you’re low porosity natural struggling with moisture retention, then steaming is the ultimate self-care step that keeps our hair thriving. 💕

💡 Pro Tip: Steam with your favourite deep conditioner for even better results!

Have you tried steaming your hair before? Let me know your experience below! ⬇️

Do you remember the movie #nappilyeverafter? Sanaa

Do you remember the movie #nappilyeverafter? Sanaa Lathan has always been a fan fav of ours but we loved her even more after that movie.

She said “We have been told and taught from the time we were little girls, that being brown isn’t the prettiest. That kinky hair or textured hair isn’t attractive, but I want you to know that is a LIE.”

No matter what your hair goals are this year, embrace the journey and enjoy the process. You might want to achieve, length, volume, transition to natural or just fall in love with your texture. Regardless of what it is - you’ve got this 👸🏾

Swipe ⬅️⬅️⬅️ to see some of our fav pics from her journey since her big chop roughly 6 years ago.

What were your thoughts on the movie? Did it inspire you?

And if you haven’t watched it - its still on Netflix

Here’s to you loving you’re crown 👑 more and more in 2024. There’s nothing wrong with rocking wigs, weaves, silk presses, braids etc but it shouldn’t be at the detriment of your natural hairs health.

Your kinks, coils and curls are gorgeous so rock them proudly! I was once that girl who hid my hair texture because I was tired of ignorant comments that colleagues would make when I would change my hairstyle but now I just don’t care. My hair is gorgeous and i embrace it. No one should ever make you feel bad for the hair that grows out of your scalp - it’s part of who you are 🩷

We’re starting the year off with ✨7 Natural Ha

We’re starting the year off with ✨7 Natural Hair Tips to Experiment with in 2024.✨

It’s likely you already incorporate some of these elements into your natural hair routine but we’ve included some tweaks to ensure you’re making the most out of it!

Here’s some reasons WHY you should experiment with the areas we mentioned above:

1. Heat helps open up your hair cuticles ensuring the product penetrates through your hair shaft. This is great for low porosity naturals 😉
2. Working with stretched hair makes daily styling and maintenance easier in between wash days. You can air dry in twists or braids. If that doesn’t give you enough stretch then blow dry using the tension method.
3. Using TLC to detangle is self explanatory but we’re dropping detangling brushes this year and going back to wide tooth combs. You’ll experience less hair loss this way especially if you finger detangle first.
4. Trims 💇🏾‍♀️help you achieve your length retention goals. You’ll eventually minimise the amount being cut in the long run if you keep up with your trim appointments.
5. Studies show massaging your scalp 💆🏾‍♀️a couple times a week helps stimulate hair growth and thicken your strands.
6. Cornrow based protective styles adds less tension to your hairline and scalp. Your hair is braided down and not pulling on your strands in comparison to braids and faux loc styles.
7. Create a moisture retention routine that keeps your hair hydrated 💦 for at least 4 - 5 days and re-moisturise when need be.

We hope you found these TIPs useful! 😊
