The Damage Braids and Weaves Cause To Hair! 🤦🏽‍♀️

Published over 1 year ago • 1 min read

Reader,

We've all heard the saying, "The more you wear it, the more you lose it." But do we ever really think about what that means? For black women, wearing our hair in braids or weaves can actually lead to major hair damage, and here's why...

Hair loss is an issue that affects many people, especially women. For those who are young or premenopausal excessive thinning and balding should not be the norm!

For many women, hair loss is a significant issue by the time they reach their late thirties. If you are under 55 or premenopausal it shouldn't be common for thinning and balding to occur at this time in life- unless there's something else going on.

Spotlight Product of the Week!

Fanola Nutri Care Restructuring Conditioner

Enriched with linseed oil, this conditioner helps to moisturize and protect hair from the elements. It's one of the best instant detangling conditioners I have ever used.

If you are a regular client of mine, this is the conditioner that everyone loves and smells like cake batter. I temporarily ran out of this conditioner a few weeks ago, and a couple of clients (I ain't mentioning no names) were ready to take me out to the back parking lot. So, this week I've decided to add this so-loved conditioner to the newsletter.

You can find this in my Amazon Store under E-Newsletter Spotlight Recommendations.

Also, another client mentioned yesterday that she was looking for the exact shampoo brush I use in the salon. That's in the store also under Detangling Products and Tools.

Well, that's it for now. If you have any questions or if there's something you'd like to know about hair care, hit reply and let me know. Your question just might be the focus of my next newsletter.

Have a blessed and safe weekend!

Reader, If your hair is natural, I want to tackle some myths that may stop you from keeping your hair in great condition. We love talking to our girlfriends and checking out YouTube videos, but many have perpetuated the myth that we shouldn’t cleanse our hair with shampoo. I hate to say it, but many of your friends and favorite influencers are wrong. The last decade saw the #CurlyGirlMethod takeover of the internet. This method encourages women and men with natural hair to avoid shampoo as...
