Ten Things Tranisitioners Should know


Ten Things Tranisitioners Should know

A person’s Natural or unadorned hair require a different approach to care and treatment, that differs from relaxed hair care. This is one of the main things that are usually over looked and the hair usually doesn’t look its best. Taking great care of your hair can allow u to avoid breakage, increase your hair strength and growth and most of all avoid those bad hair days.

Black hair is very different from other hair types, it’s usually dry, or extremely curly any usually thick and full.
  
     1.     As your hair grows out study your curl pattern.
     2.     Please don’t transition because your friend is doing it. Make up your mind to get your natural hair back on your own.

     3.     Yes you can wear your hair to work; braiding it is a good start till you have the length you want if you’re not as bold as some people.
     4.     Moisturize on a regular basis. Black hair is naturally dry so daily moisturized hair will thrive better against breakage.


     5.     Because you have to deal with two different textures of hair when you are transitioning and decide to let your hair grow out rather than take the bid chop, this different can cause major breakage if you are not careful. Try to wear your hair in simple styles like buns or twists to lower the risk of breakage.
     6.     Use rollers on the ends of your hair to give it a more consistent look.


     7.     When combing your hair, GENTLY comb it hair from the ends to the root.
     8.     Stay away from heat as much as you can. Using hot combs or flat irons can cause permanent straightening of the hair so please don’t defeat the purpose.
     9.     Texturising your hair is also negative, what’s the point! Little chemicals or more it’s still chemicals.
    10.   Transitioning requires patience and may take up to a year so take your time, learn your hair, and love your curls.
