The natural hair movement has long made its mark for countless women who have chosen to ditch hair relaxers, but a major issue for many has been how to maintain and grow textured hair.
With an innumerable amount of products to choose from, who’s to decide what works and what doesn’t? If you’re on the hunt to find the best products to grow your hair, look no further. The editors at Shine My Crown sifted (and tried many) of the products on today’s market to select the best out of the bunch. But before we get to the goodies, let’s learn more about how you can make the most of your hair growth journey.
Keep Styling to a Minimum
Yep, we know how tempting it is to continuously tussle with your hair to achieve the best look, but hair needs rest just like you do. Avoid constantly pulling hair into tight buns and keep tight braid styles to a minimum to avoid unnecessary breakage. And of course, heat should be used as infrequently as possible. More than twice a month is probably too much for your tresses to bear.
Your “Hair” What You Eat
Consider making a lifestyle change and begin by consuming raw and unprocessed foods. Nuts, avocados, lean meats, fruits and vegetables are all known to be the perfect foods to stimulate hair growth. Ensure you’re consuming lots of water throughout the day. Eight 10-ounze glasses of water each day is enough to bring vibrancy and life into your hair.
Your Hair is a Plant. Water it and it Grows
Ladies, we can’t say this enough: moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Hair needs moisture to seal in the nutrients it needs to thrive. Every 48 hours, take some time to oil your strands then seal it with a water-based moisturizer. Thank us later.
