Feed those curls and that scalp ✨

My hair grew A LOT last year. Here are 3 habits that worked for me:

💁🏾‍♀️Habit 1: Oil and Deep Condition BEFORE washing

💁🏾‍♀️How It Helps Me: Hydrates & improves moisture retention while keeping natural oils needed for growth

🙅🏾‍♀️Habit 2: PUT IT UP & LEAVE IT ALONE

🙅🏾‍♀️How It Helps Me: My main goal was growth, but those sew ins with leave out or that slicked back bun was doing nothing for me. I saw inches of growth after I started braiding my hair down & wearing wigs or protective styles for most of the year. It helps to give your hair a chance to grow without being manipulated so often.

💇🏾‍♀️Habit 3: Trim regularly

💇🏾‍♀️How It Helps Me: It sounds anti-growth, but I saw a huge difference after I started trimming my hair in-between styles. Trimming prevents breakage and gives your hair the opportunity to grow longer & fuller.

... Read more4C hair requires special care to maintain its health and promote growth. Not only should you focus on hydration and moisture retention, but also on regular trims to prevent breakage and split ends. Using deep conditioning treatments, such as Mielle hair masks, can greatly enhance moisture levels in 4C hair, making it more manageable. When styling, consider protective styles that minimize manipulation, allowing your hair to grow freely without stress. Additionally, understanding your unique hair texture and adopting a routine tailored to your needs is crucial for seeing results. Engaging with the natural hair community through hashtags like #growmyhair and #4cnaturalhair can provide support and inspiration. Keep experimenting with different products and techniques until you find what works best for your 4C hair journey.
