Best Products for Regrowing your Edges- Part 4

I know Part 4 was a bit late guys, totally sorry. But there's no time like now lol. So I've assembled a few products that can help regrow edges, hairline, temple and/or nape. These are:

1. Jamaican Black Castor Oil
Jamaican black castor oil is another popular hair product in the business and does come through for us. This is why its a very useful oil when growing new follicles. It helps to stimulate the scalp when massaged in, and promotes new hair to sprout. This is especially great for thinning edges, to help get those follicles popping. I still do have a bottle in my arsenal, and I use it in conjunction to other products to maintain my hairline. Do opt for brands that have castor oil listed first in the ingredients list, or just buy an all natural 100% castor oil. Such brands are: Tropic Isle Living, Eyl and Sunny Isle.

How I Regrew My Edges- Part 2

Hi again guys, I gave you a lil info on how my edges thinned out in the Story of how I Lost my Edges. So in this post I'll be basically explaining what I did to get them back...so sit tight :)

Well most of you guys probably know from the story that my edges thinned out due to constant wearing of tight headbands. So I pretty much lost a good piece of my edges, I wouldn't say it was so much disastrous....but it was really really bad.

My method for growing them out was kinda simple, and it was just by scalp massaging and using Tropic Isle Strong Roots Red Pimento Oil.  So it was easy right? umm, not really.

Starting Healthy Hair Care

Hey guys, if your new at the whole healthy hair care I know it can be very overwhelming for you and you don't know where to start but to make it a little bit easier, here are a list of things you'll need to start your healthy hair care and why.




[1] Moisturizing shampoo: This is to cleanse the hair weekly or once every two weeks depending on your hair type. Preferably a sulfate free shampoo as to moisturize the hair but cleanse the scalp at the same time. This also prevents the hair from being stripped then drying out the hair.

[2] Clarifying shampoo: This is to be used every 4-8 weeks to strip the hair of product

Senegalese Twist: Wash Day

Hey girlies, On Friday I decided to wash my Senegalese Twists. Before I was on a hair journey I never cared to wash my hair while I wore twists so this is a bit new to me and I had to learn but I must say it was a successful wash day. So here's the process

[1] I shampooed my hair with the CON detangling conditioning shampoo green label. I did not dilute it I simply put it in my hands then distributed it on my scalp. I did this because I mainly wanted to wash my scalp and the run off would lightly cleanse the twists. Though this shampoo is not stripping I wanted my hair to retain as much moisture as possible.

Senegalese Twist: maintanance

Hey girlies, for the summer I decided to install Senegalese twists or Rope twists as we call it from Jamaica. I was a bit nervous to do it because I have not done this in such a long time but I really needed a little break from my hair. So here is how I maintain my twists.

Morning
I moisturize with African pride olive miracle braid sheen spray making sure to moisturize my edges then I would usually loosely put my hair into a low ponytail to avoid tension.
