How to Grow Your Natural Hair



Hair is like a living plant in the soil.

To grow hair, it needs air/aeration; sunlight from time to time; moisture/water; and nutrients in the form of oil, shampoo, and conditioner. It also needs routine infused treatment and less frequent handling. 

Spray with water to loosen braided/styled hair; and apply scalp moisturizing oil immediately after making the hair. Handling the hair when it's dry leads to unneeded breakage.

Preferably use distilled room temperature for washing (or spraying) to keep the hair and scalp as clean (or softened) as often as possible. Heat Protectors when using heat on the hair is highly recommended.

Pat the hair soft towels (cotton or microfiber) instead of rubbing on it which hurts the hair structure. Also over-moisturisation can make the hair brittle.

In-between hairdos, one can try deep conditioning by infusing the hair for hours with - blended/ground and cooked ingredients - found in the kitchen such as egg, avocado, carrots, olive oil, etc. There are also commercially sold natural hair grow treatments such as deep conditioners and other oils.

Depending on the texture and thickness, texturizers, relaxers and dyes may not be suitable. Keep your hair maintenance tools very clean by first soaking in soapy water, to enhance the health of the hair.

Protective hair styles that will last longer are better. Less manipulation will retain length and strength. Reduce pulling on the hair especially at the edges or central part of the hair.

Daily:
Massage or rub the scalp with your preferred hair oil or mixture of oils, for example coconut oil to activate growth (hair follicles). Moisturize with leave-in conditioner in a spray bottle afterwards to lock in the oil.

Some Tips:
1. Minimal Products go a long way
2. Avoid Tangling of the hair
3. Moisturize your hair with distilled water or natural conditioner
4. Trim your hair after combing/straightening it
5. Take Supplements and Eat adequately

Hope this helps😊
