Things to avoid when growing your hair

Growing you hair healthy is not rocket science, in fact its as easy as 1.2.3.4.5.. so here are 5 things you should avoid when trying to grow your hair healthy

1. Avoid the use of excess heat tools

It is important to know that curls are gentle, this means excess heat can damage your hair or change your curl pattern. Even if you must use these heat tools, it should be from 1-3 times a year. This helps to preserve your curls and prevent heat damage.

2. Avoid very tight protective styles
Now I know people love very tight hair styles because they think it will last longer but when trying to grow your hair healthy, you need to release the tension on your scalp which will help prevent your edges from falling off. I make hair on the side because am a student so I know what am talking about. 

3. Avoid sleeping on cotton material pillow cases without a satin scarf

Cotton is capable of absorbing water from your hair and this is bad when trying to grow your hair properly. You need a satin scarf or satin pillow case to help you retain the moisture in your hair when you sleep.

4. Avoid using too much products on your hair

People feel that the more the better but in fact too much products on your hair will block your pores, which in turn won't allow your hair absorb moisture so it can grow. Product build up can also cause your scalp to be dry thereby causing dandruff 

5. Avoid dehydration

Believe it or not water is extremely essential when trying to grow your hair and retain. Whether its spraying water on your hair using a spray bottle you can easily get from the dollar store or drinking it, just remember moisture is good for your hair and dryness will cause your hair to break off and dandruff to buildup.
