DIY Black Hair Care Treatments


As you all have seen, I have transitioned back to my beautiful natural locs! And, I am a do-it-yourself-er.

I search and search for hair care treatments for my hair. Black hair needs LOTS, LOTS of moisture and more so when living in high humidity areas (like Florida) and drastic climate changes. I also wanted to find products I could make myself.

I would like to share with you a few conditioning recipes from Motown Girl website. Try these at home and let me know how they work for you?

The BIG CHOP! (My Metamorphosis)

I did the BIG CHOP! Cut all of my hair down to an inch in February. I've decided to have a healthy head of hair and needed to cut all of the chemicals out. I am going 'au naturel'.

Also, my husband and I decided to live and eat healthy. We've changed our eating habits and try to exercise more frequently. With my new hair, this makes life so much easier and me more willing to workout. The summers here in Florida are brutal! And, the heat kills your hair, especially if you have some kind of chemical treatment (i.e., perms, relaxers, color, etc.).

Usually men (my husband, included) have a fit when you cut your hair really short (I've only done this once before). He loved it!...




I love it! I feel FREE!
