HAIR TALK WITH TIWATOPE 2;GROWING LONGER HAIR AND RETAINING IT'S LENGTH.

Good morning lovelies!,how are you doing?,how has the week been with you ,sorry this week’s post is coming quite late,it is the fault of my very beautiful country where fuel is not affordable,and where electricity supply is a luxury.So you see it is really beyond my power urn?I f you missed the last post on how to grow healthy hair you should probably go back and check it because it is like a continuation.This week Tiwatope will be sharing with us how we can grow longer hair (probably longer than hers..hehehe),and how to retain the length.

Most of us don’t give our hair the care and attention it needs and we complain and get frustrated because it’s not growing the way you want it to,some even cut it off to supposedly ease their worries.I just want you to know there is no magic in growing longer hair and retaining it,all you need is simple steps to follow, and understanding how the hair works and grows.Here are few tips you could follow in growing longer hair and retaining its length which is also as important as growing the hair.

1.USE A GOOD HAIR ROUTINE: This means that you should have good ways or good steps  you follow in taking care of your hair. To make things easy, get a sticky note, write out your routine and paste it on your walls or where you can easily see them virtually every time, and your routine should include;

*Change The Way You Wash Your Hair: I keep telling my clients not to wash their hair often, and when you wash, don’t rinse with hot water ,washing your hair like once in 2 weeks is cool and not every weekend like some people do.

*Dry Your Hair Gently: Do you towel dry your hair roughly? Brush it out when wet? Stop doing that!. You are breaking your hair ,and doing this wont give your hair the chance to grow long and strong ,learn to treat your hair with the same gentle care you give to your skin. Don’t brush while it is wet and don’t blow dry too often.

2.OLIVE OIL  AND EGG MIXTURE. This is really another cheap way to grow longer hair rapidly. I use olive oil and egg mask weekly for my hair treatment and sometimes once in 2 weeks and  I will advice you to do the same. My hair had been hanging behind my neck for only  God how many years, but ever since I settled for a good routine and regimen, my hair growth has been amazing.

As far back as the ancient times, people have included olive oil and egg in their hair care routine. Olive oil will help prevent your hair from environmental factors, while egg contains lecithin and protein , this enhances hair growth and helps in rebuilding damaged hair.

<PROCEDURE>.

*Break an egg in a bowl, depending on how full your hair is, you could break two eggs, just make sure both are in the same ratio.

*Add a tablespoon of olive oil ,that will be two tablespoons for two eggs.

*Apply the mixture to your properly De-tangled hair, parting your hair bit by bit until all your scalp is covered.

*Wear a shower cap over it for twenty minutes.

*After that period might has elapsed,wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner.

Do it once in a week for good results.

 

WAYS TO RETAIN YOUR HAIR LENGTH.

1.GET LEAVE-IN CONDITIONERS AND NATURAL OILS. It is shocking that most ladies skip leave-in conditioners  in their routines and this is like the worse thing you could ever do to your hair,especially when you are trying  to grow your hair really long. It is actually shampoo you should skip as much as possible because while you are washing off dirt yo could also be washing off the essential oils that keep strands soft and healthy. Apply leave-in conditioner and natural oils like extra virgin olive oil,100% pure coconut oil and the likes often.

2.WEAR PROTECTIVE HAIRSTYLES. Protective hairstyles are hairstyles that enhance your hair growth, most likely your hair ends.The ends are tucked in such that they are protected from environmental  factors,examples are bun,big braids,pin-ups and up-dos.(I will still take my time to talk about protective hairstyles and easy way to create them).

3.DON'T COMB YOUR HAIR TOO OFTEN. Leave your hair alone!. You shouldn’t comb your hair daily,(yes!, you heard right). It is natural for your hair to shed though but combing daily will increase the rate at which your hair breaks off.Instead,De-tangle with fingers gently, I will advice you to comb your hair once a week,or only on your each days,and make sure you do so with a wide toothed comb.

4.WRAP YOUR HAIR AT NIGHT. This is very essential in retaining hair length,it helps protect your hair.

Firstly,moisturize and seal your hair with your favorite oil, now cover your hair with satin scarf. Make sure you don’t lie on your edges, do a little shift down to your forehead,and don't tie too tightly.

I hope these will be useful to you as you continue on your hair journey.

Muah!!.
