Maintaining Natural Hair

I am frequently asked how I maintain my natural hair. I am 23 years old, and for 21 years I was the, “Long hair don’t care girl.” Now, I am, “The short hair beware gir,l”...lol. I do feel that when I had long hair it was easier to maintain. However, I love my short layered bob, and I won’t EVER go back to long hair.

For both hair styles I did/do go see my stylist every two weeks. However, with long hair I could sometimes make it four weeks without seeing my stylist, and it would still look fabulous. My stylist plays a major role in keeping my hair healthy and manageable. She regularly cuts, trims, and conditions my hair. All my friends make fun of me because when I am in the house my hair is wrapped, ALWAYS. This, in my opinion, helps my hair last longer and not putting heat on my hair often.

I have found that regularly going to see my stylist every two weeks, keeping my hair wrapped, and taking care of basic hair duties: trimming, conditioning, and cuts, drinking plenty of water helps my natural hair stay FABULOUS :-)
