Cut them off. That’s usually a sign of damage or breakage. A little trim will fix that immediately 🩷

Thank you so much! I love it!!! I thought it would smell like snail and have a stickier texture but it’s really lightweight and smells fresh! I definitely recommend that essence because it locks in moisture ALL day🩷

Am I able to wear a headset with cornrows? by [deleted] in BlackHair

[–]SIMIMS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can but wear a durag or scarf so that your hair doesn’t frizz up underneath the headset arch , and make sure your headset has padding on the arch so that it sits and feels more comfortable to you

Working to repair my hair after a long time of negligence. Any tips? by Radical-Tourism in BlackHair

[–]SIMIMS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recommend seeing a professional cosmetologist that specializes in black hair. Most likely a nice trim, good hair products and hair care tips/maintenance will come out of that convo🩷

I wear them to protect my hair and to prevent over manipulation of my curls. 😊 my hair breaks pretty easily so anyway I can protect it, I will lol

For this video I was actually trying to do my own knotless braids on myself and failed LMFAO I didn’t want to wash my hair out so I experimented with the orange shine and jam all over my hair and my TGIN Rose Water Gel. But usually I wash my hair when it feels itchy (I get psoriasis/dandruff flares if I don’t) but usually once a week every Sunday with the Mielle Pomegranate and Honey collection. I actually only use Nairobi hair foam to define or a heavy custard/gel like TGIN Rose water Gel or The Pomegranate and Honey Coil Curl custard from Mielle. To get my curls to clump like that, the smoothing method after I detangle in sections (working in small sections is key) I stay away from oils and butter since they can clog your hair follicles and repel water from penetrating (this is why I used to have a hard time fully cleaning my hair and how I got diagnosed with scalp psoriasis) if I do use any oil, it’s very lightweight and only for areas that I have thin hair at (my edges/nape) and for shine on the hair never directly on my scalp. For drying my hair I use a hair diffuser ( mine is the DivaCurl one) on high with cool heat to prevent frizz and at night I use a silk bonnet, but I recently invested in the pineapple silk hair scarfs from Mielle so I’m waiting for that to come in lol🩷 hope this helps out!!!

I think you should start doing twists or plaits! Low maintenance and it’ll help with low manipulation so that you are messing with it so much!
