Pros and Cons of Oiling Your Scalp

Pros and Cons of Oiling Your Scalp

When I read this article, I knew I needed to share it with everyone. One thing I remember when I was on the "creamy crack" was how weighed down my hair would get from using hair oil. Then, I had no clue as to how to care for my hair, but at that time I did not know that. Now, I have a total new outlook, and I take better care of my hair. Something that I do every night is use a light leave-in condition with a natural hair oil. My favorities are shea butte and olive oil. The article listed gives the pros and cons of using oil.

Enjoy!

The BIG chop

Hello,

This is my fist blog. I big chopped December 26, 2010. I was very skeptical because I have attempted to go natural twice before with no success. I decided this 3rd time would be different. I did hours of research about what to do with my hair and what i learned really helped me this time.

1. Condition ritually- This is something I did not do well the first 2 times that I do out of habit now.
2. Moisturize-Find a moisturizer that works well with your hair.
3. Leave in conditioner- I use a leave in every night. I use a leave in that also detangles my hair every night.
4. Oil- Seal my ends with either olive oil or shea butter oil. This really helps keep the moisture in my hair.

Two months have gone by and I must say I love it. My hair is softer and healthier than what it has been in years. I love it.

I encourage everyone to post their experiences about going natual or being natural whether good or bad. Hope to hear from you soon!!!

Curlillies!!!
