OMG! These African Hair Care Tips Changed My ENTIRE Life
Hey babes! 💕 So I've been getting TONS of DMs about my hair routine lately, and I just HAD to spill all the tea on how I keep these curls poppin'! If you've got beautiful African hair like me, you KNOW the struggle is real sometimes... but trust me when I say I've learned some game-changing tips that I'm dying to share with you!
The Questions Y'all Keep Asking Me... #AskMeAnything
"Girl, how often should I be moisturizing this dry hair?" 💦
Listen, my hair used to be SO thirsty before I figured this out! Depending on how your hair's feeling, you should be moisturizing DAILY or every other day at minimum. I literally just spray mine down with warm water or Koshajay Essentials Curl Refresher (my holy grail step!) and then seal all that goodness in with an oil or cream. Life-changing, I swear! #MoistureRetention #HydrationNation
"Do I seriously need to deep condition EVERY week?" 🧖🏾♀️
YESSS QUEEN! This is non-negotiable in my book! My Sunday self-care ritual ALWAYS includes a deep conditioning treatment. It's literally the reason my hair hasn't completely given up on me after all the styling I put it through! Your curls will thank you with the bounciest, shiniest life ever! #SelfCareSunday #DeepConditioningQueen
"Can I just use whatever shampoo?" 🧴
Big fat NOPE! Those regular shampoos with sulfates? They're literally the VILLAIN in your hair story! They strip away all the natural oils our hair desperately needs! Stick to sulfate-free shampoos (like the Peach Hibiscus and Honey Curl Clarifying Shampoo by Koshajay Essentials) or try co-washing (that's conditioner washing for the newbies). Game. Changer. #SulfateFree #CoWashClub
"How do I deal with this crazy shrinkage?!" 📏
Shrinkage is actually a sign of healthy hair (I know, weird right?), but when you want to show off that LENGTH, try twist-outs, braid-outs or banding. I did a twist-out ( using the Butter Cream Styler by Koshajay Essentials ) last weekend and people thought I got extensions! 😂 #LengthCheck #ShrinkageProblems
"Please tell me how to detangle without crying!" 😭
Been there, cried those tears! Here's the secret: ONLY detangle when your hair is WET and SLIPPERY with conditioner ( Peach Hibiscus & Honey Conditioner by Koshajay Essentials) . Start at the ends (not the roots!!) and work your way up with a wide-tooth comb or just your fingers. I swear this cut my detangling time in HALF! #TangleFree #DetanglingWins
My Personal Journey #TransformationTuesday
Y'all, when I started properly caring for my African hair texture, I went from constant breakage to inches of growth in just months! No more dry, brittle strands or painful detangling sessions. My hair actually ENJOYS being my hair now! 😂
