 The scalp is the most vital part of the head when it comes to hair growth. If you want to reach your maximum growth rate, take extra care of your scalp. I always talk about chelating and detoxing as a result of this. Exfoliating gets rid of any build up as well as promoting the overall health of the scalp.  1) I used my sugar face scrub because I wanted to use it up. 1]Applied the scrub using my fingers. I massaged it into the scalp using the pads of my fingers after which I left it on for another 5 minutes.   2] Used the Maui Bamboo  shampoo  and followed with Conditioner 3] Applied Ultra growth leave in and then my Ayurveda growth oil and Jamaican black castor oil. It's as simple as this! 

 Pre shampoo treatments have become an integral part of our hair care but the question is what is the right way to prepoo? What are the right products? Can you use deep conditioner to prepoo?  First, the most popular method is prepoo is using an oil that can penetrate the strands and this is usually coconut oil. I have tried deep conditioning before shampoo. In this case the deep conditioner becomes the treatment before the shampoo. After that, you rinse and apply rinse out conditioner and then moisturise and seal. This process worked best for me due to time constraints in the bathroom and as such, I tend to do it more often than regular prepoo treatment with oil. You can also opt for bond menders as prepoo treatments to repair and restore the strands.  Lastly, you can prepoo with your clay mask before conditioning your hair.  Which is your favourite routine?

Each year, new techniques, products and hair styles trend. How do we capitalise on the trends to achieve long and healthy hair? Well, you need to understand the purpose of that technique or product before you jump on it. For example, when Olaplex came on the scene, a lot of people were not sure about how to use them.The best way was to check influencer reviews to understand the application process and the whole purpose of the products.  You should also consider your hair type and texture before jumping on a bandwagon. Have you checked reviews of people with your hair type or texture? Have people within your climate zone used the products and what was their results? This will protect you from causing damage to your hair.  Start with a small size of the products you want to try or If possible, get samples. This will help you make the decision to either go with large size or discard it. Lastly, be patient enough to know if the bandwagon worked for you or not. Give it enough time ...

Harmattan dryness can cause your skin to be flaky and wrinkled but there are some solutions you can implement even before this happens. 1. Hyaluronic Acid : This potent ingredient can be found in washes, serums and even moisturisers. Incorporate one into your routine to boost the moisture in your skin. One of the nest ways is through the serum itself. There are many affordable brands out there so you don't need to splurge on it. 2.  Hdrating toner: Using them before your serums adds to the moisture and ensures that the skin stays hydrated for longer periods. Essence toners like the Cosrx Snail Mucin Essence Toner will be a good choice during this period of the year. 2.

How did I avoid tretinion Side effects?  1. Use a hydrating wash or cleanser: Don't use  exfoliating wash when you are preparing your skin for tretinion use. This will lessen the irritation.

Start with low percentage retinol: 0.01, 0.02,0.05,0.1,0.2,0.5 Several brands have different strengths and its best to begin with a low dose and gradually build tolerance. I used retinol for over 6 months before switching to tretinion. 2. Use low strength tretinion for a long period of time before increasing the strength   3. Limit the Serums you use in your routine with the tretinion. Some people go overboard with layering more Serums before tretinion and that may not work for you since we don't have the same skin type and concerns.   4. Practice skin cycling: This is when you leave your skin alone for a day or two within the wee...
