How often should you comb your natural hair? (VIDEO)

Octavia_Hooks August 11, 2013

July 2013 Rachel O event  

I was honored to celebrate Natural Hair at the July 27th Rachel O event.  Local natural stylists were on the scene and sharing tips with natural hair enthusiasts.   This Rachel O event took an exciting twist.  Natural hair salons prepped models and took the main stage to display their styling talents.  Oh yes, I was in good company.

HAIR SHOW (VDEIO)

 

Since my natural hair expertise includes locks, twists and barber cuts, the Octavia’s Natural Hair Care Experience models sported my niché craftsmanship.  My favorite style was the twisted out barber cut look.

In addition, I took the opportunity to promote my salon’s favorite mantra:

Good Food + Good Health = Beauty.   This mantra applies to natural hair care because one of the smartest and easiest ways to achieve great hair is to eat lots of fruits, vegetables and drink plenty of water.

After the hair show, I moved through the crowds in search of opportunities to chat with many prospect clients.

The most common question.. …How often should you comb your natural hair?

As a natural stylist whose genesis begins with locking hair, my latest observation is that more natural hair stylists  and enthusiasts are incorporating locked hair ideologies into their natural hair care regimens.

Today, many individuals are opting to eliminate daily hair combing.  WOW!  Natural Hair enthusiasts are catching on; locked hair care and natural hair maintenance are similar.

I feel compelled to highlight a basic locked hair principle.  Locked hair achieves amazing lengths because you do not comb your hair.   The lack of combing allows hair strands to consistently build onto each another.  To this end, you can cultivate beautiful, bountiful hair by eliminating daily hair combing.

In summary, daily hair combing is not necessary.  However if you should decide to eliminate daily combing, then I recommend that you select a natural hairstyle that

1)      doesn’t cause extreme tangling. (My salon offers  a [2 for 1] $65 natural hair style special. Call me at 708.574.1462 for more information.)

2)      will allow you to properly hydrate your hair.

3)      will encourage you to bring forth your creativity when styling your hair.

Of course, always feel free to reach me on Facebook at Octavia cuts locks hooks or dial 708.574.1462 to schedule an appointment.

Be well,

Octavia
