10 NATURAL HAIR TIPS FOR HEALTHY HAIR

August 20, 2020 28 Comments

Let’s talk about hair

Everyone wishes for long, silky, shiny hair but with natural hair, I aim mostly for health. I admit that I never really cared about taking care of my hair since I was used to braiding it all year round and not thinking much about it but after sometime, my hair texture changed and it became thin, brittle, full of split ends and just looked a mess until I decided to start taking care of it the right way and what suits me. These are 10 natural hair tips for healthy hair that have helped me with my 4c hair and still try to follow most of the time.

When it comes to natural hair, don’t lie to yourself and think that just because another person has natural hair, that you both have the same and that you should follow the same regimen, because everyone’s hair type is different and accepts different products and maintenance.

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’re all doing great and still pushing on be it indoors or starting to venture out a bit. Now I don’t know about you but when it comes to fashion, I am not one to follow trends or go with the crowd. I prefer having something I really do like and fits in with my minimalist and sustainable lifestyle and thanks to Nordgreen, I get to do just that by adding a Native black leather watch to my wardrobe essentials which suits me perfectly and I couldn’t be happier. If you haven’t heard about Nordgreen, well it’s a Danish watch company that offers a sustainable, functional yet affordable collection of men’s / women’s watches with classic Scandinavian design.

Recipe week (Day 5)

We are almost there, it’s day 5 and another recipe is coming your way. So apparently we are going to be on lock down for another 3 weeks, at this point I don’t even know what to think anymore. I used to complain on how school runs were getting difficult and tiresome but its times like these that I’d totally love to walk for 30 minutes and pick up my son. How are you all coping by the way? Unless I am the only one overreacting and I have no idea. My baby boy turns 2 this weekend and I have already seen what the terrible twos have in store for me that’s why the playground being open would totally be lifesaving or anything that doesn’t involve running around the house screaming. Let’s just jump right into today’s recipe, my stove top tender chicken stew.

Hi,

Happy new week everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend and also enjoyed the rain that came with it, that is if you were indoors. Anyway today I am back with a skincare post, in my skincare products I want to try out this year post, I told you about my spring allergy and how it flares up and also what I wanted to do to deal with it. What I was not expecting is it to come back again this time of the year even though I knew it was just a Spring thing. I already knew I had sensitive skin and if you read the post on the products that didn’t work for me, then you will see how I almost burnt my face off. My skin is definitely not my friend right now, hence why I am here with best tips for sensitive skin.

Anyway, these are some of the tips that have helped in my experience when dealing with sensitive skin.
