There are several steps we must take in order to achieve healthy hair and healthy growth. Consciously taking proper care of your hair in all aspects will further help achieve your hair's natural health and length. We want to make sure that we help you keep your hair healthy in every way, so here are a few tips:

Frequent trims: Trimming your hair improves your hair’s overall health. Trimming removes the split ends and will prevent breakage. Keeping frayed ends will cause your hair to break further up the strand causing your hair to appear thinner.

Avoid too many heating tools: When you use heat styling tools, such as curling irons, flat irons, tongs, or blow dryers, your hair is stripped of its natural oils and proteins. These tools break down hydrogen bonds within your hair, causing damage.

Stay away from chemicals: Bleach and other chemical products can cause damage to your follicles and strip your hair of natural oils, fatty lipids, and proteins. But, if you do choose to use dyes on your hair, be sure to condition your hair often.

Brush your hair gently: Brushing your hair gently a few times a day is good for it, especially if it's long. It helps condition strands, distribute oils, and promote a healthy scalp.

Deep condition 1 to 2 times a week: Deep conditioning help repair damaged hair and hydrate dehydrated strands. Ensuring that you have a combination of protein and protein-free deep conditioners help support your hair based on its current needs. If your hair is damage, using a protein conditioner will help repair those strands while adding hydration. If your hair is battling with retaining hydration protein-free conditioners works best weekly, and you can use a protein-based conditioner bi-weekly.

Use silk pillowcases or silk bonnets: Silk fabric is smooth and absorbent, causing less friction against your hair, and helping your blowout last longer and reducing breakage. Do you want to know a secret? - Silk is also good for your skin to prevent wrinkles!

Shampoo and conditioner treatments: Use shampoos and conditioners that do not strip your hair of its natural oils. Always use shampoos that have organic ingredients that contain gentle cleansing agents, natural oils, plant extracts, vitamins, keratin, and proteins (such as Shea Butter and herbal extracts like sage, horsetail, and dandelion). Also, use shampoos that are scented with organic essential oils such as lavender and so much more.

Rinse with cool water: Always rinse your hair with cold water. Cold water lays down the outer layer of your hair, which helps prevent moisture loss, snags, and heat damage.

Nourish hair constantly: Nourish your hair and invest in scalp care. Use ingredients that promote scalp-stimulation like peppermint, tea tree, or citrus-based oils to help increase circulation and 'decongest' the scalp. Using organic products will overall promote a healthy scalp and healthy hair, increasing hair growth and long- term hair length maintenance.
