Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

My friend's son let some of his friends use grease to put corn rows in his hair the other day and now he can't get the product out of his hair. He has kind of fine, blonde hair and it just looks oily now. He has washed his hair with every shampoo at their house and it just won't come out. Any suggestions?

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

HAHAH I have friends who do this all the time. All you need to do is get some Dawn dish washing liquid and this will take it out Yes Dawn dishwashing liquid this is some amazing stuff with getting the grease out and go ahead u can get the apple scent or a pretty scent they have and shampoo his hair and just use your regular conditioner afterwards ---I also use dawn to get oil out of certain clothes Also its just a pomade(heavy grease) so it wont kill him for future hair stlyes he just should use mousse but if these are kids he's letting experiment with his hair they of course will not know this. A black mom who puts relaxers on my lovely black people and perms on funny white people - and as far a shampoo there is no black or white shampoo all shampoo is for everyone hell I've been using pantene since I was 12 because of my mom and wow by gosh know they say blacks can use funny the small minds of society =====just get the dawn and a conditioner he'll be ok

He just needs to use a Claifiying Shampoo for a day or two and it will come out.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

I agree with the baking soda idea. If that doesn't work he may try the good ol' bar of soap if he has to. Buy a clarifying shampoo and if even that doesn't work I would go to a salon and ask them for a shampoo.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

well for one caucasion people shouldnt be using african american products because of what happened. He needs to get some shampoo that will concentrate on the oil. Usualy this is a black product too but it should work.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

Yes , first take out the corn rows .

Second , use very hot water and powdered laundry detergent .

Third , repeat . It may take two or three washes .

To put corn rows in white hair use a very small amount of baby oil , very small amount , I can't stress that enough . As I'm sure you know that will wash out easily .

Use Dawn for Dishes as a shampoo, this products removes grease, then condition your hair.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

He need to use a black people champoo.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

have you taken the cornrows loose? if not, do this first. then wash with a clarifying shampoo. do a double wash. wash, rinse,then wash and rinse again. you can get the expensive kind, but suave has a good one. clarifying shampoo and conditioner.

i am afican american and wear my hair natural, but still use products that can build up and when i feel that this is occuring i use the suave clarifying shampoo and conditioner. i get very good results with this product. no more heavy grease on caucasion hair, not even on black hair. black hair can take more oiling than caucasion hair because our hair is naturally more drier than others with straight hair. even african americans with straight hair is oilier than kinky african american hair, so shampoos and conditioners made for african american hair is less drying.

anyway, try the suave clarifying shampoo and conditioner or make sure that the shampoo you do get is clarifying for normal to oily hair.

good luck. but i think this should work.

Are the braids still in his head? Most likely the "grease" they used has mineral oil in it- very weighty and heavy on the hair.

If so, Be very gentle and Use Dawn dishwashing liquid mixed with a warm water %26amp; little baking soda on damp hair.

Rinse very well, make sure you massge into each braid and loosen them up.

Unbraid them and wash again with the Dawn and water.

Spray some detangler onto his damp hair (Like Johnson's No More Tears) and work the product through with a wide toothed comb.

Using a heavy conditioner is going to make his fine hair look greasy.

The African American hair industry has tried to brianwash people into believing that certain products are for white hair and certain products are for black hair.

Not all black hair is thick, coarse and wiry just like all caucasian hair isn't straight, fine and shiny.

It's not a matter of black hair products or white hair products - good quality products will work on ALL hair types provided they are used correctly for the hair texture, not the person's cultural heritage.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

well he could try baking soda paste or some dawn dish soap to wash dat slick off his hair.. wash thoroughly and dont forget to condtion his hair as too much washing may cause overdryness of the scalp.greasy products always create havoc on ones hair be it black, white,asian,blue,purple watever.

Can't get African American hair product out of caucasian hair?

Does anyone with kinky african-american hair use a ceramic straighter?

I have thick african-american kinky hair that's in twists right now but I want to straight it sometimes. What good ceramic straighter is good for straighting and curling. Also, what heat proctector do you use? Thanks.

Does anyone with kinky african-american hair use a ceramic straighter?

CHI!!!!!!!!! I've tried all of them just about and this is the best straightener you will find (in my opinion). THey are all little on the expensive side, but soooo worth it. I also use biolage heat therapy (thermal protector)

Does anyone with kinky african-american hair use a ceramic straighter?

go to a beauty supply store and talk to someone that is professional.

Does anyone with kinky african-american hair use a ceramic straighter?

make sure to use full ceramic flat iron, NOT ceramic plated. I got mine for $20 at a cvs. It works very, very well- my hair gets soft and straight without damage, and you can use it to dry your hair if you're willing to go over it a few times. also, don't use grease or anything. after your hair is straight you can follow it up with pure vitamin e oil or wild growth. and my hair is very, very nappy- pure african. when i feel like going straight i flat iron it and it lasts for quite a while. The key is moving slowly down each hair section- get zen with it. good luck!

also, jheri redding straighting balm (the kind in the purple bottle) is really great as both a detangler and a pre-straightener. I use this before i flat iron, not all the time though as i don't like a lot of build up. also can get at cvs

Does anyone with kinky african-american hair use a ceramic straighter?

As long as you're using a proper ceramic straightener, and not those cheap straighteners, you'll probably be OK.

By the way, you can use most straighteners for curling, check out http://www.updoprincess.com/How_to_get_w... for how to do it !

Does anyone with kinky african-american hair use a ceramic straighter?

I use a solia and I also use a regular pressing comb. I use them both at a very low temperature. I use the regular pressing comb to detangle and the solia to straighten and smooth. I limit the use to right after I have washed my hair. After I have straightened my hair, I don't touch the tools again until after I have washed my hair.

What kind of treatment for african american hair?

i have a good friend who is african american, and a couple months ago she tried to straighten her hair herself. but she burned it and it started falling out. now she has really short hair but it is very dry and brittle,she thinks it won't grow out again.can anyone suggest something to help her out,,thanks

What kind of treatment for african american hair?

On rare occasions hair does not grow back, but that is usually the result of chemical damage. Since it is short now all the damaged hair should already be cut off. If not she needs to have that done. For a while at least she need to stick with something that won't further damage her hair. I would suggest letting it dread up. Short dreads look good would be acceptable at any workplace. She could also braid her hair. I'm not to sure about a weave right now, but at the very least she needs to avoid heat and chemicals. That means no relaxers. She may want to use a conditioner like Queen Helene Hair Cholestoral.

What kind of treatment for african american hair?

Tell your friend to wash and condition her hair weekly with Motion shampoo and conditioner. Sit under the dryer while the conditioner is still in the hair for 7 to 10 minutes. Rinse and style. Also please please keep the heat out of the hair it will dry out the hair and continue to break. Try that treatment for 3 to 6 weeks and I bet she will see the difference.

What kind of treatment for african american hair?

After washing her hair, she should leave the conditioner in her hair for about 30 min, then rinse. If she doesn't want to sit under the dryer, use a blow dryer with a comb. after that use a moisturizer like Pantene for African Americans and then style as usual. Use the moisturizer every day. And the next time she relaxes her hair tell her not to scratch prior to and put conditioner at the ends of her hair to avoid breakage.

What kind of treatment for african american hair?

Tell your friend to wash and condition her hair every week. Trim it regulary and get a Lace Front Wig to give her hair a rest. Tell her she can email me at hiredantere@yahoo.com. This is the most natural looking way to discuise damaged hair whil you let it grow out. Check out my ebay austion anyone interested. The item number is 250124888111. my prices are the lowest you will find for the highest quality product. Check it out I truely feel like you could benefir from this.

Good Luck with the rest but do not put any harsh chemicals or heat in the hair. When the hair is damaged already further damage will occur. Maybe if her career would allow it she could try braids for a little while but be careful THESE WILL EVENTUALLY TAKE OUT HER HAIR TOO!!!

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

My hair is medium length but, I want to try to continue to grow it instead of cutting it off. I am a female African American so, I need to know some methods on, how to help my hair grow faster and look healthier. I also use relaxer's on my hair every month to straighten it out. Please help me find some way of helping my hair grow faster!

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

You only need to do touch up when you relax your hair monthly. Only on the new growth. Then you need to keep moisture in your hair. Chemicals tend to dry out hair. Need to find an excellent hair dress or cream with natural herbs, vitamins in it and message your scalp at least three times a week. This will help stimulate the scalp by making the blood circulate to the hair follicles, promoting hair growth. I use Mane 'N Tail Hair products on my relax hair and it's in great shape, and has a lot of moisture. Shiny, healthily. Everyone can take prenatal vitamins and under the Black Hair Care website it says hair need moisture to grow.

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

Our hair length is genetically determined. We can't do anything to change that. My sister's hair will grow to her butt, mine will only grow just past my shoulders. All you can do is protect the hair you have to keep it from breaking off. I would stop using the relaxers and try a different way to style your hair. Use plenty of moisturizing conditioners, keep it trimmed, and it will look healthier. Healthy hair looks longer anyway because it breaks off less. Just treat it gently.

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

You can't make it "grow faster",but you can protect the ends by sewing in a weave for a month or so. Skip the relaxer the next month and have your hair redone with the sew in weave...after 2 -2in a half months your hair will have grown out,then when you relax it again you will the difference.

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

Using a good conditioner and keeping the ends trimmed promotes healthy hair growth. Oil scalp and massage depending on the dryness of your hair and scalp everyday or every other. Try not to perm every month unless it's done by a professional if you must. Peace!

my friend she is African American, she is very happy with her hair now. good luck.

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

- How fast your hair grows has more to do with genetics and nutrition than anything else. You can't do much about genetics, (my mom's hair always grew really fast; so does mine!) but you CAN take vitamin supplements within reason.

- Also, a lot of people who think their hair isn't growing all that fast are really experiencing excessive breakage. Chemicals weaken the hair shaft and tend to cause it to break off more easily. You can switch back to the pressing comb. Even though heat also damages hair, it doesn't seem to be as extreme. AND, you can counteract the effects of heat damage with various products, - conditioners, treatments.

- Some people believe that braiding helps, and maybe it does. But, I've heard others say that it makes their hair break easier.

- The trick for healthy hair that grows as fast as it can is good nutrition, healthy lifestyle (even medications will effect the luster and strength of your hair), and get as close to natural as possible to minimize styling damage. :-)

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

Hi there. I'm caucasion. But I agree with the prenatal vitamins. The thing is, since I take medication that causes my hair to fall out. My doctor gives me prenatal vitamins, because they have zinc and selinium in them. So you can simply go to the drug store and buy zinc and selinium. This won't help it grow faster, but it will stop it from falling out. My hair is so think, I have it layered, and I thin it with a man's hair cutter I bought, that has the big teeth. But it wants to fall out on top, where I first color it. It falls out in hand fulls every time I wash it. So the zinc %26amp; selenium or prenatal vitamins help. I go buy them on sale at the drug store for buy one, get one free. The dollar stores, do not carry the same mg. I wouldn't go there. Now you don't notice the thining. I know mayonaise is loaded with great things for hair, but check around for african american, I don't know about that? Plz let me share a funny with you. I have to take xanax and all these strong medications, so when I asked the druggest for prenatal vitamins, as I'm 52, I wish you could have seen the schock on her face. It was priceless. I thought I'd die laughing. Then I had to explain this to her.

I have been using these products for almost a year and following Cathy Howe's instructions from her book. I have almost 7 inches of growth. My hair is past my shoulder blades and is thick and coarse. You, like myself, maybe surprised.

Check out the before and after photos on this website. I am not on there. Yet.

One of Cathy's tips was to stop brushing your hair unless you are styling it. I did this and boy is there a difference.

I admire that you are trying to grow your own hair and not fall victim to the weave-a-do trend.

How can I make my hair grow faster; for african american hair types?

Eating a healthy diet. Avoid or cut back on smoking, drinking alcohol, caffeine and foods that are high in sugar or fat. These are all bad for your body, and will affect the condition of your hair.

Allow your body to grow hair by giving yourself plenty of sleep and rest. Give yourself time to relax when you're feeling very stressed.

Buy a good quality brush or comb - avoid cheap plastic brushes.

Treat your hair carefully by avoiding any unnecessary brushing.

Limit the use of styling tools such as straighteners, hair dryers and hot rollers - these all cause stress to your hair.

Have regular trims to get rid of split ends and to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy.

Weekly scalp massages provide stimulation to the hair follicles.

Also do a weekly hair treatment to protect the hair's shaft.

Avoid chlorine and saltwater. If you go swimming, shampoo your hair as soon as possible afterwards. If you spend alot of time in the sun, use a conditioner that provides SPF protection.

Do not brush your hair when wet. Use a wide tooth comb and be gentle with your hair when it is wet. Do not rub it vigorously with a towel

What To Use To Make African American Hair Grow?

What specific products would one use to make African American's person's hair grow hair to mid back? No perms, or any chemicals. Please help me.

Thanks

What To Use To Make African American Hair Grow?

I take about 100mg of Biotin and vitamin B supplements along with moisturizing my hair daily with a water based moisturizer .

Wash your hair once a week with a Moisturizing shampoo such as Nexxus Therappe or Creme of Nature .

Condition afterwards with a Moisturizing conditioner such as Nexxus Humectress ,Oyin Honey Hemp,Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle .

Apply a leave in and let Airdry ,Heat can seriosly damage your hair so if u can ,AVOID IT!

Massage your scalp with a natural oil such as Carols Daughter Lisa s Elixir or Wild Growth Oil .

MOISTURE IS THE KEY !

AVOID:

Mineral oil and petroleum-based products can really be counterproductive to that goal. These types of products work well at either sealing moisture in or keeping moisture out. Problem is, the porosity of AA hair make it difficult for the cortex (the hair閳ユ獨 inner core) to retain moisture in the first place. So if your hair doesn閳ユ獩 hold moisture, there is nothing to seal in. And if you閳ユ獧e using mineral oil or petroleum-based products you閳ユ獫e now created a water-resistant barrier that will keep moisture from getting in. And since AA hair is inherently dry, you閳ユ獧e only compounding your problems with having dry hair. Again, if you閳ユ獫e got issues retaining moisture to begin with, best to steer clear of these types of products.

And if you must use oils, opt for essential oils and butters. They閳ユ獧e permeable, meaning they mix well with water and allow your hair to breath.

What To Use To Make African American Hair Grow?

Trim it every two months. Only like half an inch and don't cut it otherwise and it should grow to be healthy and long.

What To Use To Make African American Hair Grow?

I noticed that drinking lots of water ...trimming your ends and not stressing out helps your hair grow. Ive been here and there with my hair and let me tell you for while it just would not grow ...mainly due to stress which could be a huge problem for hair not growing. Also try not to put to much hair serum or grease in the hair because it tends to clog the pores ...when you blow dry your hair try not to get close with the blow dryer and always deep condition the hair but not over condition GOOD Luck!!!

What To Use To Make African American Hair Grow?

Well massaging the scalp always helps. It enhance the hair gowth. Eat diet rich in biotin (oats etc). And massage the hair with olive or almobd oil.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

When I was younger my mom hated doing my hair because it was so curly and dense. She would break combes trying to put a part in it. I never really paid much mind to it until I got to ATL and the weather started messing it up. Thats when I got a perm. It grew and grew and grew into a very nice length. But now 5 years later I feel like I've turned my back on my African American roots. Part of me wants to cut it off and start over. But I LOVE MY PERMED HAIR. Does this make me ashamed of my blackness.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

No it does not. I have had my hair relaxed, natural, and braided. That is the beauty of African American hair! It is so versatile.

The only time I think someone is ashamed of their blackness is when they think that African american hair in its natural state is "ugly" and that is their reason for straightening it. It is a personal choice, just like having long or short hair. Just be sure of the reason why you "love your hair permed"....

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

No, it doesn't make you ashamed.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

No it just means your hair is very difficult to deal with and that you want to make it more manageable. Nothing wrong with that :).

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

Omg! Be Black %26amp; Proud! African-American people are beautiful. I personally say, be proud of your hair. If you have a problem and maybe want it softer: take a good conditioner: (Dont wet hair) leave it on, and wait an hour, then wash it. and in the morning shampoo %26amp; condition it in the morning. Do lots of brushing...OR just go ask a salonist!

Just Remember! Be proud of who you are!

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

No you should have your hair the way you like it. If it makes you feel better about yourself then then keep it permed.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

It definitely doesn't. I have really straight "Asian" hair, and I want to get it permed. It has nothing to due with how I feel about my heritage, just what works for me.

If you love your hair as it is, than keep it. You're doing what any girl would do.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

Black people do all kinds of things with their hair when they are older. It doesn't make you ashamed, it just means you want to try something different.

African-American hair is NOT unmanageable, you just have to know the correct way to handle it, and no, perming your hair does not make you ashamed of your blackness, if you were perming it, dyeing it blonde and wearing blue contacts, I would have a different answer.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

tyra banks, naomi campbell, kerry washington are all gorgeous african american women who are not the least bit ashamed of their african american roots, but still have unconventionally long hair. i think that you should keep your hair the way it is as long as you like it ! if it looks good keep it, the only way you would be turning your back on your roots is if you were growing your hair because you were ashamed of your ethnicity, which i'm sure you arent. keep the long hair if you like it! ( although i love rihanna's bob cut, you should try that if you decide to cut your hair anytime soon) hope that helped!

probably

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

No that doesn't make you ashamed of your black hair. Personally, I love natural hair and that's why I chose to cut all the relaxer out and start over. There is nothing wrong with choosing to get relaxers though.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

People modify their bodies all the time for the both the sake of easier maintenance and their appearance.

Dark haired girls with, say, ancestry in southern European regions, dye their hair blonde-- but generally not because they're ashamed of not being ancestrally Nordic, or Germanic-- but simply because they think they look better blonde. Blonde girls often dye their hair dark-- but generally not because they're ashamed of their ancestral roots. I dyed my hair purple when I was younger, but not because was ashamed of being Indian, or human, for that matter.

Then again, a lot of Indian girls (for one example) wear blue contacts or try and lighten their skin based on a a specific image of beauty-- which almost definitely comes from a western cultural hegemony. That kind of scares me. But, I really don't compare that line of thinking to you making your hair both easier to maintain, and as such, probably more versatile.

I don't think you're ashamed of anything-- you're changing your hair to suit your personal style and preferences like hundreds of other girls do.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

Hey...if you like your hair the way it is, you're in the minority, I think. Why mess up a good thing? I dye my hair darker, but that hardly means I'm ashamed to be white.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

it doesnt make u ashamed

and if u dont straiten ur hair and use grease and put it in ponytails it will b the nice curly stuff u had b4

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

Part of the problem is that many people with kinky hair are not taught how to properly care for their hair. It's not straight, so you shouldn't be using the same type of fine tooth comb that a person with straight hair would use. If you love permed hair, all that means is - you love permed hair - so what! Wear it. It is nice though, when people with kinky hair come to a point where they learn to love what they have naturally and realize that there are an unlimited amount of ways it can be worn - chemical free. But wear you hair any way you like. The real you, is the person on the inside, it's your heart that matters, not your hair.

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

u know i see what u r saying.

my cousins have hair like that and some friends. u just have to know how to style it. my one cousin(african american/spanish) just puts herhair in a pony tail with side bangs but this girl at my school has her hair short and straight with gold-like highlights it is amazng. u would have to have a pcture to truely picture it.

no that doesn not make you ashamed of your "blackness"

you just dont really like your hair (i dont either)

i think you should cut it shorter but not too short

I feel so ashamed of my African American hair?

no,i got a perm and i'm mixed, don't be ashamed because you still have natural african american hair the new growth is your natural hair and perms make your hair straight but if you only blow dry your hair after washing it you have your half natural hair

Hair care tips:

Apply little or no heat to your hair

wash and condition it your hair once or twice a week

don't brush you hair, use a wide tooth comb

If your hair is tangled, use detangler

wrap your hair up at night with a silk scarf

relax your hair every 6-8 weeks (if you get perms)

MOST IMPORTANTLY! Get you ends clipped every 4-6 weeks or as often your beautician tells you.

No ponytails! They do not grow your hair, it breaks off your edges, and split your ends. If your going to wear ponytails please don't wear them often.

Can someone give me hair care tips for african-american hair?

I try to get a perm every 6 weeks. I also wrap my hair at night to keep it from rubbing out. I keep my hair in a ponytail now so that it can grow out. Having your hair in braids also helps it to grow. Use a perm with no lye in it and also follow the directions carefully. Go to a salon and get your hair did=) and ask the beautician what is the best way to maintain good healthy hair ( i would go to a black beautician) Also eating healthy helps your hair. And grease that scalp to stop itching. I use African Pride perms and Panteen Pro V shampoo's and conditioners ( the ones in the brown bottles) When shampoo bottles say 'normal hair' up there they are not referring to black people. Use something that has a detangler in it.

Can someone give me hair care tips for african-american hair?

It's a simple ingredient thing. STAY AWAY from products with mineral oil in it! It will cause your hair to break! Try to stay away from chemically treating your hair too if your hair is prone to breakage.

Try using Redkens products and BioSilk products! Typically these products are generated for caucasians, they are excellent on african american hair. :] Keep your hair moisturized with deep and leave in conditioners as well.
