Hair doesn't absorb or retain moisture the same once you have transitioned to natural. We sometimes have to give it a boost. Relaxed hair can sometimes need a boost as well. If your hair tends to stay dry and does not absorb moisture well, this treatment is for you. If you wear braids and weave often you should consider hydration therapy as well. I love hydration steam therapy because it allows the moisture to penetrate throughout all strands of hair allowing manageability and longer lasting styles.

This picture  is of a natural client as she returned from a 2 week appointment. She has no relaxer or straightening system of any kind. Her hair stays moisturized and straight from shampoo to shampoo with no heat damage or dryness.

I love, LOVE! I feel we all deserve it and we all should give it. Not just in February but all of the time. Let's exercise our right daily to give and take LOVE! Remember, it's not only a word that's spoken but action that can be seen.  ❤️

I Corinthians 13:4-8

We sometimes feel ashamed of our challenges. I'm here to tell you that you are not alone. Whatever it is, someone else has dealt with it, will deal with it, or is dealing with it now. Never be ashamed to express how God has delivered you, healed you, and set you free from bondage! I am an overcomer of low self esteem, emotional exhaustion, and social anxiety. Now I'm unapologetically walking boldly and beautifully in my God given purpose!

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet[a] no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end

Ecclesiastes 3:11

I recently started a new program for the Beauty Professional! The voice of a Hairstylist, Barber, Makeup Artist, or Nail Tech may be the 1st and sometimes the only one offering encouragement and motivation to those who need it. As hair and care professionals our position is very important to the heads we hold daily and ourselves. We have to maintain our business, safety, and personal lives as well. ABLE Conversations Professional Stylist Edition is held once a quarter on a Monday during lunch hours. This quarterly meetup brings beauty professionals together to network, share resources, and have amazing conversations to strengthen personally and professionally.

Share this with a beauty professional!

I've been busy with speaking, teaching, and training. My mentorship program is taking off as well and I've been able to assist other stylists with understanding the importance of maintaining hair and scalp health behind the chair as well as setting standards and boundaries to remain healthy personally and professionally. I owe it all to stepping out and writing my 1st book 31 Tips To Healthy Hair!

• Keep hair moisturized.
  
• Get regular treatments. 
  
• Tie your hair at night using satin scarf or bonnet. 
• If your scarf comes off have a satin pillowcase as backup
• Keep wool away from hair especially the hairline.
• Stay away from high collars.
• Drink plenty of water. 
• Maintain a well balance diet. 
  

Hair – an extension of your epidermis, the outer layer of your skin and is composed mainly of protein/keratin. This is why protein or keratin treatments should be done only by a professional.  Adding more protein can harden the hair which causes drying and breakage. A professional haircare specialist will know the best treatment for your hair.

What is healthy hair?

Hair that has balanced porosity (ability to absorb moisture), balanced elasticity (ability to stretch), free from split ends, no breakage.

Hair type, texture, color, length, curl pattern, etc. does not determine the health of hair.

Relaxed hair and natural hair can be healthy. 

Scalp – the layer of skin on the head from which the hair grows that contains muscles, tissue, sebaceous glands, and the follicles which houses hair strands. A healthy scalp leads to healthy hair.
