New Year, New Hair!

Start your year off right! We all have great New Year Resolution! 

 Gerri Styles My Hair has a few New Year Challenges for you:

1

                      Increase you water intake daily- Water hydrates your body and helps to regulate the circulatory system, which feeds the hair follicle, that stimulates hair growth. If your hair roots are deficient in adequate water levels your tresses will eventually become dry, brittle and may stop growing.


                      Treat your hair and scalp to a treatment every two-weeks- Massaging your scalp helps improve circulation and stimulates hair growth, gentle pressure and kneading to opens up the blood vessels and increase blood flow.  Massaging can also be combined with a treatment once or twice a week. treatments help it penetrate the hair shaft easily and also reduce dandruff.


                     
                                             Try taking a hair vitamin! - Hair vitamins fill in the gaps left by your regular diet to provide your body with the nutrition it needs to grow healthy hair.

Curly Ombre Bob using a Hair Wand

Using a hair curler wand is a great way to achieve a curly bob. 

To use a curing wand simply keep the tip angled down and the cord end angled toward the ceiling. Wrap 1-inch sections of hair around the wand working away from your face. As you curl around the back of your head, you can alternate the directions as you wrap. 

The closer you wrap, the tighter the curls. 

To keep your hair safe from heat, use the lowest setting and apply heat protectant serum to your hair.

How to Detangle Hair

Tangled hair is the worst thing to have and trying to get them out can be a headache. The first thing you want to do is make sureyou use a conditioner after shampooing your hair. Then apply a leave conditioner on the ends of your hair and massage it throughout the hair.  Next you will use a wide tooth comb and begin combing from the ends to the roots. If you are styling your hair while it’s dry make sure you apply a serum to the ends and then use your wide tooth comb.  If you have this problem frequently you want to make sure you use a detangling shampoo, followed by your moisturizing conditioner, then yourleave-in conditioner, and deep condition treatments every two weeks.

Protecting Your Hair During Summer

The summer is here and the last thing we want to be worried about is our hair. You want to have options on ways to protect your hair. The most important thing is keeping the Flat Iron and other hot tools out of your hair.  Some great styling options would be wearing your hair curly or wavy, twisting it, adding hair extensions, roller sets, braids or a short haircut. If you have to use heat make sure that you use a thermal protectant before using your hot styling tools. Make sure receive your proper hair treatments for your hair, and shampoo your hair once a week.

*Individuals with natural hair should make sure they are doing their cold water wash with an intense moisturizing conditioner, once a week.

Hair Shedding

Many Ladies struggle with the thought of seeing their hair shed!  Whether, it happens when you’re combing, brushing, styling it, or in your hands as you shampoo. Your hair shedding can be a result of many different things such as: lack of treatments, nottrimming your ends, diet, hormone changes, and stress. If you notice excessive shedding you should begin treatments to prevent this from resulting into hair breakage and hair loss. Garlic, Protein, and Moisture Conditioner are great treatments that help with the shedding of your hair. This treatment process should go on for a month to begin building the strength back into the hair. Follow your treatment with a leave-in conditioner, and a serum.

Natural Transition

Transitioning from relaxed hair to natural hair is a frequent asked question. Many want to know should they cut it off or continue to grow it out. These two choices depend on the preference of the person. If you decide to just grow it out over a period of time you want to stay on top of your hair trims, and treatments. Treatment should be done every two weeks, and cold wash once a week with an intense moisturizer. When choosing this option you really get to learn how to manage your hair and what product will work well for it. Doing the big chop is a very dramatic experience, but the great thing is you get to experience the natural curl pattern growing out evenly. Some issue you maystruggle with during the process is tangling, hair breakage and split ends. But Consider conditioning more, moisturizers, and using oils daily. Products that have proteins, silicones and mineral oils are great for your hair.

Gerri Styles My Hair: Pin Curls

More installments of my short hair adventures! I am trying new things every week to see what looks I like best.  Who said short hair isn't fun and versatile?  Gerri used the pin curls on my hair because it is a protective style.  A Protective style is a style that does not use heat on your hair.  I use this protective style in between my visits to Gerri so I don't have to use heat on my hair.

To Style:

Shampoo your hair and use a moisturizing conditioner
Set the sides of your hair with a set foam and sit under the dyer
Once dry use a light serum
finger through your hair with a blow dryer for the top of your hair if it is still damp
Section your hair
Curl and pin as you curl.  Pinning your curl will set the curl, much like hot rollers.
At night before bed pin you hair in curls and sleep in a silk bonnet.

There is no need to use hairspray to maintain, it is a low maintenance hairstyle, provided you pin your hair every night.
