Okay so the secret to Niah's hair growth or growth in general is tlc, a little bit of tender love and care goes along way. For most part of her life, Dhaniah's hair has been in braids, which is the key to her hair growth. I find it that when her hair is in braids there is less manipulation and stress on her hair i.e combing it, blowing drying it and etc. F.y.i ponytail holders, if placed too tight can cause added stress on your hair and cause breakage.This is why I alternate between braids and ponytails. I usual keep her braids in for two week depending on how well she keeps it and wash and grease her scalp with the braids in. It is very important to keep the scalp moisturize, her scalp tend to get dry often so I grease it frequently. The more moisture the less breakage you will have. Its normal for the hair to shed during combing (dead hair), but not excessively.
Happy to hear about ur dtr hair journey. All 3 of y kids r natural even the boys and I plan to keep their hair growing. When u say greasing her scalp try to steer away from the grease tht we grew up with and use oils such as coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil etc etc and u will see more length retention. Happy growing!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment, for the 1st two years I used the one we grew up on but now I use organic coconut oil, and I've notice the differences
DeleteI LOVE how you braid her hair. I'm not so skilled in the parting department lol. I'm getting better with time but I don't think I's ever be at your level :)
