Haircuts For Wavy Hair - 13 Tips You Can Do to Take Care of Your Curls

Calling all Black women! Calling all Black women! Join the Natural Black Hair Revolution now! You no longer have to cover up your glory under wigs and weaves or mutilate it with creamy crack! Calling all Black women! Calling all Black women! The time for you to free yourself is now! Free yourself from the stigma that says our hair isn't as manageable, versatile or beautiful as anyone else's!

Sistas, take off those wigs and cut fully out that weave. Throw out the creamy crack (perm) and put down the flat iron! The science for natural African hair care is upon us and in full affect. Unlike the not as distant past, the data and information regarding the maintenance cute black women hairstyles, care and upkeep for natural hair is everywhere, actually, many natural African hair care lines have gone commercial. We are in possession of no excuse for hiding under wigs and weaves, because we don't "discover how to cope with our hair" or worse, we think "other" hair textures are more beautiful than our own.

The notion that Black hair doesn't grow or that its unmanageable is a fallacy. Granted, there's no faster hair care than throwing a wig on, but where is the pride for the reason that? Why do we want to continue to announce to the world that people don't think we look good unless we are wearing the White woman look? If we continue to purchase into what the planet thinks folks then we shall continue to spread the legacy of self hatred to our future generations, its as simple as that. Granted, fake hair isn't the sole manifestation of self hatred in the Black community, but it is obviously a solid example. We've been protesting and marching for damn near 100 years for the entire world to grant us equal footing in all facets of life, isn't it time we attribute the same fairness to the hair that grows out of our head? Indeed, the stigma that society has positioned on the Black female characteristic is deep rooted and extends back centuries, but is time for sistas to step into the 21st century and FREE OURSELVES!

Truth be told, transitioning from chemically treated hair, wigs and weaves is the BIGGEST step. If you've never worn your own hair natural and don't know anyone who wears their hair naturally, perhaps you are wondering how in the world can you make the change. My advice is always to first get educated. There are hundreds, perhaps tens of thousands of YouTube videos of sistas demonstrating natural African hair care. Additionally there are many excellent websites and blogs like CurlyNikki which can be the best guides you may request on natural care.

The second step is always to just stop creamy crackin'(perming)! Let your growth come in. Some sistas choose to go all in and BC (Big Chop) their permed hair right away and rock a TWA (Teeny Weeny Afro). Others would rather to own more length before they stop their perm and continue wearing a wig or weave. I indicate however, if you are likely to wear a weave when you transition, have the old school weave where your own hair is corn rowed first and then a weave is sewn in. Just ensure your beautician doesn't pull the thread too tight and maintain a weekly deep conditioning regiment. Its also good to transition with braids. Simple box braid styles are an easy task to take care of and help you maintain a specialist look at work. Again, however, if you use synthetic hair, ensure its not braided too tight, deep condition regularly and don't keep them in more than one month.

Natural African hair care is actually pretty straight forward, moisturize, moisturize and moisturize. Although there are lots of retail products out there, we could actually care for our hair pretty well with everyday household items or things we may find in the kitchen. As an example, I personally use coconut and olive oil to offer myself a hot oil treatment before I co-wash (wash w/ conditioner). My hair loves coconut and olive oil and reveals beautiful, soft and shiny curls from a two-strand twist out. Many natural African hair conditioning methods contain other household items such as for instance, avocado, castor oil, Shea butter or honey. Add one leave in conditioner and you can produce your own deep conditioning regiment.
