Anywho. Here’s some of my work recently. All achieved without using any oils, butters, or leave in creams. Shampoo, conditioner, styling products (typically gel), and a curly cut.

We recently talked about the dangers of constantly pulling your hair back. Here’s an example of what mechanical damage looks like. This client has no chemical treatments or regular straightening, just constant ponytails bc of work. Gotta find alternatives.

What to do instead? Shampoo, condition, and style with gel for wash/go or foam for twist out. Once a week. Use lots of water. That's it.

Oils do not moisturize.
Oils to not seal in moisture.
Oils do not promote or aid in hair growth.
Oils do not help with dry scalp or other scalp concerns.
This applies to locs as well.
The sooner we learn this, the sooner we’ll all be free.🙏🏾

Oil does not seal in moisture. Water will evaporate from your hair and scalp within 5-7 days whether or not you apply oils. Using oils just makes it harder to get water back into your hair.

If you literally just shampoo, condition, and style with lots of water once a week, it would solve a lot of your hair concerns. Cut out any steps that haven't been recommended by a professional.

What I've learned today: "4c" hair is how people classify hair that they "don't believe" has a curl pattern without manipulation. So when I show a wash and go on "4c" hair, folks say it's not 4c because of that mindset.

Tight curls defined after hydration. Fully dry in the after. If the only time you think someone has 4c is based on the before, but you wouldn't label the after photo the same, maybe something is wrong with the label. No curl types over here. Just hydration.

In case I never made it clear, this simplified approach to hair is not a "method". It's not something I created. It's not new. It may be new to you. It's just hair care.

When cleansing, using shampoo one time typically isn’t good enough. Rinse it out and run it back at least one more time. Have y’all been doing this?
Washing at lest once a week and shampooing twice is the best way to keep you hair and scalp health. The first wash gets rid of environmental pollution, potential debris, and product, some times the first wash may not suds or not get rid of all the product.

If a stylist says you need to blow out your curly hair to effectively cut split ends, they have not been adequately trained to cut hair in its curly state.

The info I share on hair oils is not a belief, like Santa Claus or the tooth fairy. Whether or not you believe or feel like it works, does not change the behavior of oil in your hair, scientifically.

I used pretty much the same shampoo, conditioner, and gel for both of these clients. That's why I don't care what your curl pattern is. It doesn't matter as much as you think.

I agree. I think rice water in your hair is nasty. Hair care isn't complicated if you stop putting breakfast, lunch, and dinner in your hair.

“Black hair” is not a specialty y’all. I can’t install wigs. I have colleagues that can’t braid. But we can slay a curly cut and wash and go. All of those fall under “Black hair”. Get specific about the services you want a stylist to be skilled in.

You can smooth them down with foam after cleansing. But let’s prioritize health/care/hygiene. If a style is keeping us from having a clean scalp and hydrated hair, let’s re-evaluate things.
Washing braids won't fuck them up? Like, make them look messy?

I'm realizing, it's not that my message is unclear. It's just not what people want to hear. Shampoo, condition, & style weekly. That's it. That's all. Unless your stylist recommended something else specifically for you, you're adding unnecessary steps.
