Letter From A Website Visitor

We received the following letter from a visitor to our site at http://www.pressing-hair.info
Thank you for the article, "Tips for Pressing Hair". I have been natural for about 4 years now. I usually wear a large afro or braided extensions. Once on a cruise, my sister flat ironed the front section of my hair so that I could wear a straight "quick weave" to dinner. When I washed it...It would not go back kinky!! I tried everything to get the natural texture back, but nothing worked. I was devastated! I had to wear braids for a long time, and kept cutting my hair in the front until it all grew back naturally!!

Ever since, I have been afraid to straighten my hair. BUT, YOUR ARTICLE HAS CLEARED THAT UP FOR ME!!!

Thank you for the information!!! Your sites are now bookmarked on my computer!!

Tips For Washing Natural African American Hair

Many people with natural african american and afro textured hair have had bad experiences when washing their hair, especially if the hair is natural. The washing process, if done incorrectly, leaves the hair dry, tangled, and very difficult to deal with. If done correctly however, the hair will be left clean, soft, and easy to manage. This blog post looks at how to wash natural african american and afro textured hair. What To Do Before Washing Natural African American Hair: Before you wash natural african american and afro textured hair, you should gently comb through it first with a wide tooth comb or pik IF POSSIBLE. Combing through the hair will help to remove hair that has separated from the scalp, but hasn't fallen out yet. HOWEVER, if you can't comb through your hair, or if you are wearing your hair in a style that can't be combed through (like microbraids or cornrows) don't comb through your hair. If you have just removed braids from your hair, if you...

Q&A: Hair Reverts After Pressing

Q. I live on the east coast of florida with medium to high humidity. Is there any thing special that I can do to keep my hair from reverting back to natural after pressing it? Pressing last less than 48 hours. A. Hi. It is tougher to keep hair straight in high humidity. What I recommend is that you try using a good quality flat iron instead of a pressing comb (if you aren't using one already) because a flat iron will help reduce moisture absorption by helping the cuticles on the shafts of your hair lay down flat. I also recommend that you use moisturizing hair products (like the ones we sell at http://www.nwscents.com ) . If the products that you are using on your hair are drying, they will dry out your hair, causing your hair to want to absorb moisture, which will make it more difficult for you to achieve the results that you want.
