Tips for massive hair growth.

The most important thing it’s to be patient with yourself, never compare your hair journey to anyone else’s. Love your hair and take great care of it. Always eat the proper nutrients to help grow your hair for example eat plenty of sweet potatoes, spinach, avocados, eggs( a great source of protein and biotin!), berries,salmon, oysters, black beans( already my favorite, look up my famous black bean soup recipe here on my blog). All of those nutrients are already part of my diet.

*I will drop more food recipes in the future 

Steps to take for the outward part of your hair.

• Wash your hair weekly or bi-weekly; I prefer weekly because of all the products build up that are on the scalp.
• Focus on your scalp health : if your scalp is sick your hair will not grow. Wash your hair as much as needed to avoid build up, inspect scalp for psoriasis, flakes, dryness and itchiness. If those things are happening it may be time to consult a dermatologist they will further assist. 
• Deep condition your hair weekly or biweekly; never skip this step because curly hair needs as much moisture they can possible get because the hair strands recoil so it not straight so the oil doesn’t migrate towards the ends of the hair that much so it is your job to keep the ends of your hair moisturize because if it’s dry your hair will break off. 
• Avoid using too many products on your hair: pick a few that works mostly you need : a leave-in conditioner, a twisting cream, a hair elixir for your scalp and a reviving hair spray containing water to refresh your hair when it’s in a style.
• Incorporate protective styling: some examples are braids, wigs, twist outs, cornrows and a style where the ends of your hair are tucked in. Having a protective style will help with length retention and it will protect your hair from over-manipulation. When I don’t have braids in my hair; I usually use cornrows as a protective style throughout the week I only touch my hair 2 days out of those 7 days.
• Finger detangling is extremely important, always take your time when detangling your hair because that’s where the most damage happens. Never detangle dry hair! Spray some water on your hair with some leave-in conditioner to detangle on the days that you aren’t washing your hair, use a wide tooth comb to further detangle. Use a Damian brush if you want but I am not really a fan of it because it stripped your hair of the products you put in your hair as you are brushing your hair, I use it to create texture and to style my hair but not to detangle. 
• Wear a hair satin scarf but if you’re like me and you sleep like a mad person get a satin pillow case because chances are the scarf will fall off but that’s okay if you have the right pillow case. 

This is all for now, and I believe those steps are very important for my hair journey.
