"Black Women" Pointers for growing your hair?

Someone give me some tips on growing longer, healthier, thicker hair? My hair has always been thin and I dont know if it will ever thicken out. Probably not huh! Plus my hair has always been frail and short meaning neck wise. I dont know what else to do but wear weave. Please give me some answers.



"Black Women" Pointers for growing your hair?

My advice to you is to Shampoo less and condition more...Shampoo strips your hair if you do it too much... Also invest in a really good deep conditioner.. Do not put too many hair products in your hair...and if you use any type of heating tools make sure to use a heat protection serum like..IC Hair Polisher by Fantasia...or Let's Jam Heat Protector...this protects your hair from the heat...Using alot of heating tools (flat irons, curling irons, hair dryers) causes split ends and ultimately will dry your hair out....Also oil your scalp...nothing to heavy use like carrot oil, or jojoba oil, or olive oil...and if you dont want to go through all that you can keep your hair in braids (but make sure you keep your braids maintained and oil your scalp)..If you use Hair Gels then make sure that the gel youre using doent have alcohol in it...alcohol strips your hair.... To sum all this up.. Shampoo Less, Condition Your Hair More, Invest in a Heat Protector, Minimize how much you use heating tools, Clip your Ends, Oil Your Scalp, Braid your hair (optional), Use Non-Alcohol Products, and the biggie... DO NOT DYE YOUR HAIR!! I found a link on the internet that might help you out....I hope I helped you...kisses hugs and shrugs...xoxo



"Black Women" Pointers for growing your hair?

I AM NOT BLACK BUT TRY NOT RELAXING YOUR HAIR.. I KNOW IT GETS TUFF BUT FLAT IRON IT INSTEAD



"Black Women" Pointers for growing your hair?

im the first to answer YAY at least i thought i was!!! LOl well that is a tough one if you didnt kno the thinner your hair is you shouldnt put tracks in your hair so much it will cause your hair to brake so just wash your hair around every two weeks and condition it everytime you wash it try not to braid your hair into micros either but back to your question keep washin it condition it and grease your hair everyday make sure and try not to put heat on you hair alot that causesalot of breakage but if you have anymore questions feel free to email me i can give further tips i just dont want to take up alot of spaces lol



"Black Women" Pointers for growing your hair?

u can relax your hair but get it done professionally 2 prevent overprosessing. flat ironing can cause split ends and it doesn't last long in heat. i get relaxers and a wrap set and i get my ends cut periodically. my hair is past my shoulders and is very healthy.



"Black Women" Pointers for growing your hair?

Go natural. No relaxers or petrolatum based products. (You can tell if a hair product is petrolatum based by looking at the list of ingredients. If the first or second item on the list is petrolatum/paraffin/mineral oil, put it down!)



See what your hair's natural texture is. I relaxed my hair for 10 years and it never grew beyond my jawline, and would crack and dry out and break off. I cut my relaxed hair off and just grew my 'Fro, and within 8 months, my hair was as long as it had gotten in 10 years of relaxing. I lock my hair now, and my hair is the healthiest it's ever been. Give your natural hair a try.

Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Just admit that you don't like to have your hair nappy. For those of you that say you do, why do your avatars have the afro or nappy pigtails avatars? Okay, I have nappy hair and I hate it. I don't find myself attractive with an afro, and obviously I'm not the only one. I don't see very many black women walking around with afros,in fact after the 70's, probably 20% or less black women actually have their hair natural by choice.



Most relax, press, or wear weaves %26amp; wigs to straighten out their hair. Also braiding to tame the naps. Why can't you guys stop lying? All races have things that they don't like about themselves, black women happen to have nappy hair and most don't like it. Just admit it. If it weren't true, why would their be so many black women I see that have straight hair?



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

You have a point. It depends on where you live. In the USA black women have been constantly told that our nappy hair is ugly and unfeminine so we've taught our daughters to perm their own hair.



Me personally, I like nappy hair now, but only in certain hairstyles. I would actually grow an afro, but i'd have to cut my relaxed hair off first and that would be too short.



As for my avatar, I have her hair to look the way mine does now.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

You have issues. And I'm transitioning towards nappy hair right now and my yahoo mail does have an afro avatar. Why don't you just admit you have issues?



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

because you dont like yourself or your hair does not mean other persons dont either, speak for yourself.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Guess what? I also have nappy hair. My wife and i are happy to be nappy thank you very much. My wifes beautiful cloud of natural hair was one of the things that first attracted me to her.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Some like it, some don't. So everyone doesn't share your view. Get over it. Don't say everyone is lying just because they see things differently from you.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Yes, this question is every bit as bizarre as I thought it would be.



Why are you so angry about hair? Do you have nothing important in your life to worry about?



.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

I'm east indian and my hair=african hair...Just chill man or gal, let their avatars be whatever they want.



P.S. I don't mean to offend you.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

I saw your other post on skin complexion and you have your own other issues. And you just contradicted yourself because you said " For those of you who say you do, why do your avatars have the afro or nappy pigtails..." Umm if someone LIKES having "nappy" hair why wouldn't they have an avatar that reflects that? About 99.9% of black women who relax their hair do it because it is easier to manage, not because they are trying to be something they are not.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Are you serious right now?!? To each is own. If a black woman doesn't like her hair nappy than that's her freakin' choice it has nothing to do with admitting anything or not. It's just that we have a choice to keep it nappy, get it permed, straighten it out, color, cut, braids, corn rolls or whatever it is that we want to do. Ok you have nappy hair and you don't like, sorry but the ones that do don't have to have afros to make you happy. I am an african american female and I am fortunate enough to have a very good grain of hair and it never gets out of control. And what's wrong with nappy hair anyway? Having nappy hair isn't bad!!



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Different people like different things. My cousin has "nappy hair" and she gets it straightened because she can "manage" it. One of my cousins has "nappy hair" and she leaves her hair natural because she likes it that way. I don't know every Black women but I do know that it's their hair and they can do whatever they want.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Where in the world do you live? And are you truly a Black woman, I live in Northern California, over half the women at my church, (congregation is over 6,000 more than half are women) well, the majority have their hair in its natural state, stylishly short, braids, dreads, locks.



There's a handful of us, (like me) who still do the old fashioned straightening perm, I happen to like my hair, straight, due to the nature of my job duties, it is easier to maintain. When I retire, (in six years), I can't wait to allow my hair to be in it's natural state, I will do locks or dreads, probably dreads, I can't wait!! I am really jealous of the sisters who are able to wear their hair in it's natural God given condition.



Remember this......my hair may be Nappy...but my soul is Happy!!!!



Peace be unto you, my sista!!



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

You done pushed my buttons the wrong way. Why don't you admit to the chemical burns you submit your scalp to every so often in the name of relaxing? Why don't you admit the amount of time and hassle you put yourself through every time you leave the house with red hot utensils? How many chemical burn scabs have you picked out of your head? How do you react in the rain? When is the last time you went swimming? When is the last time you burnt your ears with that curling iron?



If you have come to make peace with that, more power to you. But us natural women have nothing to "admit" to you. This society does not represent the beauty that is natural afro hair enough. Nor does it foster a knowledge of how to take care of it or style it so that it's pain free and easy. Us here who are natural have come to find that knowledge, and are living the care free life in regards with our hair. We are embracing the difficult process in learning to find beauty in something that society tells us there is no beauty in.



Leave us the heck alone, and let us live our lives. We have nothing to "admit" to you. If you don't like your hair whatever. But just because you have some serious self hate going on doesn't mean that everyone has to self hate with you.



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Firstly your obviously not black because if you were you would know calling someone's hair nappy is rude, regardless of race. SOME blacks have a tighter curl pattern or kinky pattern to their hair than others. From your statement you have to be referring to AA(African Americans), because many blacks outside of the US do wear their hair naturally (many caribbean islands, UK, and in Africa seeing natural hair is the norm) and the reason AA may not wear their natural hair is obviously due to history. They were brought over here unwilling, forced to change their culture unwillingly, forced to change their religion unwillingly, all these things over hundreds of years lead to a pattern that many times is difficult to break, hence they have adapted to what was forced upon them and been tricked into believing they are inferior(including their hair)leading to a whole other stigma of good hair/bad hair(specifically directed at the chick who says she has a good grain of hair (as I roll my eyes)), lightskin/darskin, but I digress....think if ur ancestors were told to eat rice hundreds and hundreds of years even though they might have some religious angst towards, but if they didnt, would be tortured, beaten, separated even more from their family, and or killed, would it be okay for me to come on yahoo and ask ignorantly why japanese ppl dont just admit they love rice?



True compared to some people with less tighter curls some blacks hair might be more difficult to manage, but that by no means means we/I hate our/myhair. I love the fact that i can wear MY hair any way I want and there are very few if any other races out there who can say that! Hell in Japan they try to rock the afro I get naturally, in california, they dread their hair, and I'll be damned if every time i dont go to the islands i see another tourist usually white, getting their hair braided on the beach! The question should really be why do so many other people try to get their hair looking like many blacks?



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

you obviously don't have no hair (LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)--you have me dying of laughter--all this over some hair..........Girl what is your problem---a sistah must've burned you with a hot comb....LOL!



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Who really cares, we can do with are avatars whatever we want, so get a life!!



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

i am black and my hair is natural curly, it's water wave and I love it so.....



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

you know not all black women have their naturally puffy and afro soem of them have a mix of nappy and AFRO= frizzy dark brown and those women are mostly from ethiopia or ertrea and sometimes some black women in america or the caribbeansn hav e good hair too and ur right people should admit it



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Please speak for yourself. I like it both ways. If my hair is nappy all i have to do is brush it back and use water. thats it. and i think it looks cute. the only reason i wear a perm is so my hair can be tameable. other wise if i can wear a afro and not break any of my combs then yeah. i cant tell how many brushes and combs i broke because my hair was nappy. so either way im straight..



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

Why is this such a big deal to you??? Worry about your own nappy hair. I mean this question is absurd. If all that you can do is think of questions such as this then you really need a life. There are better and more important things to be worried about, and nappy hair isn't one of them. You have issues!!!



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

This question displays LLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOWWWW intelligence on your behalf! I am "happy to be nappy", and when I made my avatar a few months ago, I made it as close to my hair as possible. As for you, Oshihana, or whatever, stop trying to be something that you are not. You're pathetic and self-hating. I feel sorry for you. You're question is an embarrassment to black women. We all DO NOT hate ourselves as you do! Speak for yourself next time....



Why can't some black women on yahoo be honest about their hair?

My hair is not nappy. My aviator fits me because that's is how I have my hair.

How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

My hair is natural and I've been trying to straighten my hair, but it poofs up after 3-5 days. I went to the salon on Friday and my hair poofed up today after I ran this morning. I know the obvious reason may be because I ran, but I don't want to live in constant fear of my hair poofing up so I don't exercise. How can I straighten my hair and keep it that way? I'm looking into wearing a weave because I don't want to deal with this every morning. Also, will relaxers work? How about soft curls?



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

Your best bet is to get a relaxer. With just a straightening comb or flat iron it'll never be for good.



If it's your first relaxer, I suggest getting it done professional and then you can treat your roots on your own as needed. It's permanet. Just be careful not to get a relaxer too much as it is damaging if overused.



With a weave, it's also good to have a relaxer unless you have braids or a sew-in.



Nothing looks worse than a free flowing weave with nappy roots. Looks all kind of fake.



Straightening your hair EVERY day will make it brittle and dry.



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

Dude, you have to straighten you're hair EVERY DAY! THats the only thing that works unforunatly :[



Food luck!



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

You have to work with it daily. The chemical straighteners only HELP to keep the style... You said it lasted 3 fays and that is about right...



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

Have you ever had an super perm and after that straighten your hair out with a straighten comb or maybe it just that your sweating to much.



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

use either blue sunsilk for poofness or



purple to straighten kinks and was your hair with one of these set you can mix and match em if you like and them use tresemme heat tamer spray on damp hair well towel dry hair and then use a low blow dryer and athen when dry all the way throu flat rion your hair all this can be bought at walgreens or CVS and yes a realxer will work and help but get it done at a salon and it touched at the salon



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

Yes, if you want to wear ur own hair, try a relaxer... but even when doing activities like working out and when dealing with humidity your hair can curl up at the roots... research Japanese Hair Straightening aka Thermal reconditioning in your area .. its like a relaxer but your retouch will not be needed for months and it is humidity proof.. if done right.. Research, find a stylist who has experience and trust me this is a micrale for curly hair...



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

try straightening it with isoplus pressing oil and using a straightening comb...i do that and my hair stays silky straight for at least two weeks. i usually don't press my hair that often though, i usually wear natural hair styles



How can I straighten my virgin hair?(My hair resists heat).?

You should get a relaxer, thats the only way that your hair wont poof or nap back up. If you dont want to get a relaxer i would suggest you get a sew in (with all your real hair cornrowed)

Hair extentions for a very short hair style?

Ok so for about a year I've had this hair style were the front is to my chin and the back is very short so that it will spike up, but I'm getting bored with the style and I want my hair long again. I've heard of different kinds of extentions, like they weave it or glue it. So I'm wondering which is better? My short hair is about 1in. long. How much is it gonna cost to get it down past my shoulders?



Thanks ^_^



Hair extentions for a very short hair style?

1 pk will be $20-25 for quality hair you should try a brand called milky way they have great extensions %26amp; they look natural. they also have a variety of colors

Could someone give me information on full coverage weave?

Do u have to have a certain length hair, can you get any color or texture and does it look natural?



Could someone give me information on full coverage weave?

yu have to get a length that matches yur length, and has to look authentic, b/c rilly, people like me would crack on yu if i saw horse hair weave. sorry, but its the truth, and thats how the world is. it also has to match yur hair type, unless yu want to be spontaneous and light it up with blue weave, or blonde.



Could someone give me information on full coverage weave?

Depends on how much you'd like to spend. Look at Tyra and Beyonce who are millionaires... they can afford the natural hair weaves that looks great. If you are willing to spend approximately $1,5000.00 sure, you can have great hair like them. From what I understand, it hurts. (Cornrows and such)



You can purchase a natural hair weave in any texture and color.



And NO you do not have to get a certain length that matches your hair length. You have have hair to your knees if you can afford it. You can get any color, texture and such. They have natural human hair that can be curled and styled. Be ready for the maintainence, though. (I asked my friend who is a stylist, I opted for natural hair clip in extensions that I adore.)
