Suggestions for regrowing african american hair!?

.Recently my hair has broken off severly in the middle. I am trying to do all that I can to help restore growth. I am currently laying off the relaxers and growing my hair natural. Also, I'm

taking prenatal and hair, skin, and nail vitamins. I also read that using virgin olive oil on your roots helps. I know that it takes time to see results, but how long could I expect to see change by doing these things. Also what else can I do or take to help speed up the growth. I'm so desperate and I am open to any suggestions. Please help me.

Try drinking a lot of water and exercising. Both will help with keeping your hair healthy as it grows. Try using Wild Growth Hair Oil. It is very good with a combo of all the oils that are best for your hair, like coconut oil and olive oil. Use three times a week. You should see results from the Oil alone in 2 to 3 months. Also, manage your scalp every night for 10 minutes before you go to bed. This will help simulate your scalp and help with hair growth. HTH!!!!

Suggestions for regrowing african american hair!?

I had the same problem with my hair. I use the Hair, Skin and Nails vitamins. There are some hair products by Organic Root Stimulator with Olive Oil that work pretty well, I also like the Hair Mayonnaise. I also use the Dr Miracle's products, they are expensive but they worked really well for me. I had my hair cut about 1/2 inch long because of hair damage and since using those products and getting regular trims and deep conditioning, my hair has grown into a short bob that stops at my jawline in 6 months. No joking! I still get relaxers though, but my hair is a lot healthier and thicker.

If you want your hair to grow faster than usual you should use natural products like coconut oil or olive oil for example. Slather the products on your scalp for about 30 minutes and wrap a towel round your head and then wash the hair with a shampoo / it will be better if you use a shampoo that contains natural products like aloe, olive, honey or milk/ . Do not forget to use a condtioner at the end. Do this twice a week and you will see the difference 閳?the oil saturate the hair and makes it looks great , beautiful and healthy. Olive oil is ultra moisturising and adds shine to lacklustre hair and most women know how much it helps the hair to look amazingly.

What products to use for African American hair that straightens hair without frizz?

I usually press then flat iron. My hair will be straighten but it still has a frizzy look instead of the silky straighten look. I used to get my hair done at salons and they sprayed stuff in my hair before they flat ironed it (not sure what they use). My hair is natural (no perms) wavy/curly texture. My hair is much longer since I stop going to salons but I don't have the salon look, after I press it. I can't even wear my hair down because it is way too frizzy. Can someone give me some advise on the best products to use when flat ironing your hair leaving you with a silky result? Thanks girls.

What products to use for African American hair that straightens hair without frizz?

There is a line of products by Avon that is great for that. It's called Advanced Techniques Straight and Sleek. The shampoo and conditioner alone helps reduce frizzing, but there is a particular straightening balm (it's a cream) made by them that works great with or without heat and is loaded with nutrients to maintain your hair's health. If you flat iron your hair very often, that may actually contribute to your hair's frizzy state. Too much heat can begin to damage your hair and cause it to look frizzy as well. Using these products will help your hair to be straighter when pressed, and you can wrap your hair overnight to maintain it.

How do keep African American hair moisturized and maximize it's growth potential?

I currently use Aubrey Organic's products and they generally work pretty well in keeping my tresses moisturized and plus the added benefit that they contain all natural ingredients. But a couple of days after I shampoo I find my hair dry, especially on the ends. I oil my hair and scalp with almond seed oil and jojoba oil mixed together on a nightly basis and I clip my ends about every month. I also take flaxseed oil supplements as well as a daily vitamin. I also have a roughly healthy diet which is rich in leafy greens and other veggies and low in fats. The only area I may lag in is my water intake is not as high as it should be. I generally consume about 5 glasses daily rather than the 8-10 as most professionals suggest. Beside increasing my water intake, what else can I do to ensure my hair remains moisturized as well as reaching it's maximum growth potential? Thanks!

How do keep African American hair moisturized and maximize it's growth potential?

African American hair is extremely dry...You sound like you are doing a good job, but you didn't mention other factors such as how you style your hair, what you use to wrap it up at night, and how the air conditions were you live are. Those factors have to be taken into consideration as well.

Also, you mention that you oil your hair and scalp, but do you do the same to the ends of your hair? As you know, that part is the first to dry out.

If you wrap your hair at night and tie it up with a silk scarf, that should suffice, in addition to what you currently do.

How to best care for African American hair.?

I am a white woman who has a bi racial little girl. I keep her hair braided most of the time and I use the Pink lotion to grease her head. The question I have is that I see so many little black girls with braids and their hair is not flying away all over the place. My little girls hair will lie flat for a little while but then starts to fly away if you know what I mean. How do I get her hair to lie flat? Her hair is natural, it has never been treated with chemicals or perms. It is very long almost half way down her back but its very thin espcially around her hair line. Can anyone out there give me some tips on how to care for her hair better and stop the fly aways, without getting perms or other chemicals in her hair? Thank you!

How to best care for African American hair.?

I would suggest using a light grease instead of pink lotion, that tends to dry my hair out. You also have to keep in mind everyone has a different hair texture and her being bi-racial, it won't be the same texture as others. If it is breaking off around the hair line, I would suggest going to a beautician to get that checked out, even though she is a little girl, she still needs healthy hair. The beautician will be able to tell you how to treat her hair and restore the hair around the hairline.

How to best care for African American hair.?

dont use pink lotion.. it ruins the hair..im 15. and have been perming my hair for a while.. i dont have bi-racial hair.. but my hair hasnt been damaged because of getting perms.. but its your decision.. and try not putting a Ounce of grease in her hair.. try a olive oil spray

How to best care for African American hair.?

I'm biracial also (black %26amp; asian). Yes, don't put chemicals in her hair.

The reason why she has fly away is because her hair texture is different from black people's. When I get my hair braided, it'll only last for about three days. Something to help hold it down is a little bit of grease.

I personally wear my hair curly (my hair is probably the same legnth, at my bra strap). I used to use pink lotion, and it helped, but I found using "white people" products work better for me. I use Sunsilk Frizz Ease 24/7 creme (green bottle) and some sort of curl defining mousse (I like Tresseme Curl Care the best, but I'm currently using Garnier Curl Construct Mousse and it works fine too). I always style my hair when wet %26amp; I never comb/brush it out; I just finger comb.

If you were wondering for shampoo's and conditioners, I used to use Motions (for black people), but I find that Garnier Fructis works better. I use the Curl %26amp; Shine shampoo, conditioner, and leave in conditioner.

Also, please don't think I'm racist (obviously I'm not), but most people think just because you have some black in you, its better to use those type of products, but since I don't have the same texture, I find that this isn't true.

Anyway, I hope this helps!

Do African American hair relaxers work for Asians?

I want to relax my hair so that it can be straight, but I want to know if the ones in the stores that sell for black people also work for asians.

Do African American hair relaxers work for Asians?

It seems that the relaxer would be too strong. I am part asian, being that I was told that it would damage my hair and that the salon people who did put it in my hair at one time was afraid that my hair would fall out. I'm thinking it may be a little too strong if you used it.. There may be other products out there that may give you the straight effect I'm sure of it. It's just risky if you used those type of relaxers on your own.

Do African American hair relaxers work for Asians?

It would depend on the type of hair you have.

If you have fine hair like the Orientals, I think, it won't work for you.

If you have thick hair, then maybe yes.

Do African American hair relaxers work for Asians?

I don't think so. I know that there are hair products made especially for both types of hair because if you use the wrong type of product it will fry the hair. (I have a friend from Japan and she told me that she had color done and it fried her hair because it was more for caucasian hair - and she would never make that mistake again.) I would definitely ask a GOOD hair dresser; either that or call the customer care phone number on a hair product made specifically for Asian hair and ask them.

You should try going to a Caucasion hair salon and ask about their relaxers. African American relaxers are pretty strong and I'm thinking you have very fine hair, so that want be a good idea to use that type of perm on your hair. Good Luck!
