Bad Hair Days Be Gone
Written By: Amanda Farah
1. Keep it Trim!
Losing the dead ends will make your hair look healthier instantly. You should get a trim about every 6 weeks.
2. Comb with Care!
Detangle knots either by hand or with a comb (NEVER with a brush). Wide-toothed, wooden combs are best for this. Conditioners will also help to ease the stress.
3. Get Rid of the Shampoo!
Avoid lathering up every day (it will dry out your hair). When buying shampoo, look for ones without silicone ingredients, which are bad for any kind of hair.
4. Oil up!
Olive oil makes a great at-home hot treatment. Warm up some oil and soak your hair from root to tip. Wrap in a towel and let it sit for an hour or two. Lather up and rinse for silky smooth hair! Out of olive oil? Mayonnaise will also do the trick.
5. Take the Heat Off!
Hair dryers and flat irons can damage hair. Give your tresses a break at least once a week. Braid or bun it up for a classic (heat-free) style!

About every month or so I try to get a hot oil treatment, and a deep conditioning. And instead of blow drying my hair, I wrap it while its wet, and sit under the dryer. And after I dry it and straighten it, I wrap it again oil my scalp, and sit under the dryer for about 15 minutes with plastic wrap. I know it sounds funny, plastic wrap, but it makes my hair shiny, healthy, soft, and have LOTS of body!

I loved cracking open an egg and using the egg whites only in my hair... Makes my hair shiny and more healthy looking... Hope I gave someone on here a new ideal :)

From then on, i straightened my hair everyday with the iron. we finally bought a hair straightener & i continued this for about 3 years straight. my hair has been damaged. but now, i am all natural. sometimes i straighten it, but not like how i used to. i still get crap from people, but i dont care what they think.
