BAD Hair Advice

4/19 Edited to

... Read moreMany people desire long, healthy hair but often overlook the importance of regular scalp care, especially the use of hair oil. From personal experience, incorporating hair oiling into your routine 1-2 times a week makes a significant difference in hair texture and growth. Oils such as coconut, argan, or jojoba penetrate the scalp to moisturize and strengthen hair roots, which can reduce breakage and promote length retention. In addition to keeping your hair hydrated, massaging oil into the scalp improves blood circulation, which supports follicle health. I noticed that when I neglected this step, my hair became dry, brittle, and growth stalled. Conversely, a simple habit change of applying oil weekly led to softer strands and fewer split ends. It's important to choose an oil suited to your hair type and not overdo the application, as excessive oil can weigh down hair or cause buildup. Complementing oiling with a gentle shampoo and avoiding harsh chemicals or heat styling tools further boosts results. Maintaining consistency and patience is crucial because hair growth is a gradual process. This advice aligns with dermatologist recommendations emphasizing holistic hair care rather than quick fixes. Ultimately, if your goal is long hair, regular scalp nourishing practices like oiling should not be ignored.

Yes you can put rosemary oil on your hair EVERYDAY and you’ll start seeing results. My ai t did it and her hair was kinda thin and short before its thick and long now so just cuz your a derm doesn’t mean you know everything. Btw dermatologists are for faces and skincare what does hair have to do with your face?

In theory some safety tactics sound like they would be effective… in reality it’s a little different. It takes some time to wiggle under. In this case situational awareness and self-defense would likely result in a better outcome. #safetytipsforwomen #safetytips #selfdefense #safety

stay busy. you won't have to feel it. you will. busyness doesn't dissolve the feeling. it postpones it. it keeps the grief, the anger, the confusion, the grief you haven't named yet — all of it — at a manageable distance. until the schedule clears. until the noise stops.
