HAIR CARE- CONDITIONERS
I'm not going to harp on about how cold it is, you know that it's winter and that our face's need extra moisturiser and body needs wrapping up with knited garments.
But how about your head?
Conditioner is just like face tonic water- people know it exists but do not always use it!
My hair is natural, so this means that I have no weave or relaxer attached to my hair. I have dyed hair and because of this, the natural oils in my hair are eaten up quicker by the Chemicals in the dye, thus, making my hair thirsty for nutrients.
My first piece of advice is to condition the hair for hours before you wash it. I know this is not always achievable (as we have busy lives) but i would recommend it at least every 10 days.
Do a hot oil treatment- I reccomend John Freda's, especially for frizzy hair. Leave this on for 30minutes to an hour for optimum results.
Spikes Top 3 Hair Conditioners are:
- Tigi Rockaholic, living the dream conditioner £19.95p
- Aveda, Be curly Conditioner £14.70p
- Redken Extended Conditioner £12.35p
If you do not mind abit of mess and feel experimental, make your own hair conditioner.
Ingredients: Tree Tea Oil, Warm Olive Oil and Avocado Pear.
Mix these ingredients altogether in a plastic bowl with a spatula.
Massage through the scalp to the end of the hair shaft
If your hair is long enough, wrap your hair into a bun and leave a shower cap on for 1 hr.
The natural heat your temples will create a light hair steam.
The results are: lustrous healthy full bodied hair! Enjoy!
