The Hair Debate

You may be frying your hair thinking you’re strengthening it.

Don’t blame heat for everything. You may be applying heat to a hair that’s already damaged thereby frying it instead of strengthening it.

We all want that consistent curl pattern but things can get in the way. Damaged hair won’t curl! In this episode of the ROOTED podcast, I’ll teach you how to get your curls back by understanding the difference between heat damaged and damaged hair.

I also suggest ways to repair your natural curl pattern after damaging your hair.

There’s no lie in saying that too much heat and straightening hair too frequently will damage your curls! but this doesn’t rule out the benefits of heat to your hair. I’ll also teach you how to use heat to your advantage.

Last but not least, I talked about hair texture, what damaged hair looks like and how to know your hair love language.

In this week’s ROOTED Episode, Morale Ocain gets together with Elaine Truesdale, CEO of Atlanta Natural Hair Care Professionals, to talk about the importance of establishing 

a relationship with your stylist.

Going to the hair salon is an intimate practice. You set aside a time — usually a decent amount of time as well, from one hour to even three — and you take that time out of your usual hustle and bustle. Maybe you leave work early; maybe you make an appointment for a quiet Saturday morning; maybe you take a whole day off for a little self-care. The time set aside is special because you are choosing to create time and space to go and be wholly refreshed, both in appearance and in spirit.

When you sit in that stylist’s chair you give them your trust and they make magic happen. Even if just for an hour, you let go and leave it all up to the person with the shears. You probably find yourself giving them updates on your life, and they reciprocate in kind. They ask questions about the story you told during your last appointment, and you get to give them juicy updates. It’s like catching up with an old friend who is also able to revitalize your whole appearance. (cc: beyondtheshag.com)
