Natural Tips - January '09 By: Thando Kafele Notable Natural Hair Care and Styling Professional
These are recommendations that you should
definitely consider. It will help you in the short and long run if your priorities
are the health and look of your hair. Stand out with beautiful creative looks and
keep your hair healthy simultaneously. Here are
my tips!
*Do research on the products that your stylist uses--i.e., the big words on the back of the bottle that you
can not pronounce.
Google them to understand whether or not the product will do a service or disservice
to the health of your hair.
*Natural hair thrives on moisture. Whether
loose or locked, your hair should never be dry.
A cream as well as a leave-in conditioner
should always be used to maintain hydration.
*If you do not wear your hair in
its natural
state, but you are considering it, do research to find a true professional through websites,
consultations and word of mouth.
*Consult with your stylist about the style
you wish to achieve before the appointment. Don't
wait to think about your creative styling destination. Styling options should never
be an after-thought. Tell your stylist if there is a particular occasion
you are preparing for, or an expectation you’ve set for the appointment. This will help you
as a client, because your stylist will be more prepared for your service.
