I have tried the 100% human hair but there are several different types and non match my actual hair. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to try.What is the best type of hair weave for an black women?
if you do himan hair try yaki hair, it closer to a relaxed black hair textureWhat is the best type of hair weave for an black women?
hello I have been reading blackhairmedia forum. Very good. Most people in the uk dont want to spend the money for a good weave but if you do everyone is raving about extensions plus as it gives the appearance of just relaxed hair instead of shine. Look at the us sites. Nature girl is another, but these are expensive. One less expensive is one called wagman the body wave doesnt look too bad. The good thing about these is they dont shed and you can re-use. Hope this helps as those in the uk are terrible. Some of the indian sites can give a duller hair appearance and is cheaper still
Stay away from weaves. They will damage your hair. Just take better care of your own hair and it will grow.

What's the best type of relaxer, that leaves your hair so silky for black women's hair?
well I'm in the process of trying different relaxers, and the last one i used was ors w/ olive oil, and my hair came out great soft and silky.What's the best type of relaxer, that leaves your hair so silky for black women's hair?
There are two.
Dr. Miracles Relaxer
Revlon Realistic Relaxer.
I have tried both and they did the job. Straight, soft, silky hair.What's the best type of relaxer, that leaves your hair so silky for black women's hair?
I use Motions
whatever you do dont use motions usee something like dark n lovely or optimum care ok.
motions are the harshest relaxers on the market. i only use their prroducts not relaxers.
My friend had to use dark n' lovely all the time on hers. Other relaxers would cause her hair to break off around the edges of her scalp, especially around the ears and at the temples. I would add in another vote for dark n' lovely.
Make sure that you get a professional relaxer. They straighten your hair better, and are better for your hair. My stylist use Affirm on my hair. I alway get compliments on how shiny and silky my hair looks. Make sure you keep your ends trimmed regularly.
my hair stylist use proclaim and my hair coms out really damm good
I like olive oil relaxer, I don't have to perm as often and the hair has a silky feeling, use the other products that is linked to this perm for best results,
i use dark and lovely. the conditioner is the best. my hair is always so soft and silky.

Hair help for black hair (black women)?
What products are best for getting a shiny bouncy look for permed hair? I prefer sprays to avoid the greasiness and heaviness oils give to hair.Hair help for black hair (black women)?
well i love olive oil hair sheen. and while it is an oil, it does not weigh my hair down at all. i also use nexxus shampoos and conditioners. i find that they give me the best bounce.Hair help for black hair (black women)?
I'm not a black woman but I am a cosmetologist. I do alot of black hair my fav product for that is in the k-kurl line its a spray sheen.
try hair shine serum. I love keracare products, but a lot of other lines make hair gloss (from paul mitchell to john freida, loreal, and just for perms). I have biosilk. They will give your hair sheen without weighing it down.

Hair question for black women with natural hair?
Ok, here's my scenario: -
- I want to grow out my relaxed hair; I haven't put chemicals in it since July and I haven't cut my chemicaled hair off either; what is the proper way to do this without cutting my hair off?
- I'm getting some braids (fake) in my hair in a few days; what are the best shampoos, grease, etc. for my hair; I know about nappturality and everything but I just want some overall advice
ThanksHair question for black women with natural hair?
First of all black peoples' hair grows like anyone elses' hair believe it or not. It's all about the way you take care of it. It will grow beautifully in it's natural state. You can't keep putting chemicals in it and expect it to grow. I keep my hair natural, (for about 2 yrs). It's never looked more beautiful.
Yea it's nappy but it's healthy, pretty, shiny, thick and strong. It has grown SOOO much without the chemicals. It's literally a new head of hair. You wanna know the secret? Less is more. I keep my hair in braids/twists and I always get complimented. I keep it this way to NOT put heat on it everyday.
Too much heat kills your hair! Washing it once/twice a week is good. I personally use African black soap as shampoo which does wonders also for face and body. Natural shea butter is also a very good hair conditioner. Olive oil is also very good as well.
Black people don't need to wash their hair every day because our hair doesn't get that oily. Washing your hair everyday isn't really good for anyone, it strips it of it's natural oils. Inevitably it will become weak and brittle. You don't want that. Most shampoos on the market contain a lot of chemicals but I do like shampoos by softsheencarson catered to natural hair care.
When your hair isn't in braids you're going to need a wide tooth comb to detangle and NOT pull out your hair.
After washing section your hair into box braids and let it air dry. Less heat the better.
Nurturing you hair is the main key...too many products is BAD.
You have to be incredibly gentle with your hair to help it grow.
No tight ponytails, no rubberbands! Our hair is incredibly sensitive and fragile.
It's really easy to care for our hair, just be nice to it lol
I'm also happy that your getting rid of the lye...it can't be good for you
Good Luck!
*also* trimming your hair is what you want to do. It promotes growth and health. you dont have to go ahead and do the big chop but trimming is very good for your hair especially since your starting on a new slate going natural :)Hair question for black women with natural hair?
blacks peoples hair is hard to grow, but on my case mine is easy, but anyways, did u say FAKE braids, no offense but that look looks trashy if yur doing the style i think yur doing, just get hair extensions.
OK sis
I've started my hair growing journey about 3 months ago
I used the crown and glory technique with some modifications of my own ..... results started to show
my hair is about 3 inches taller then before
I've red about this technique on this link

good luck
The relax part of your hair will grow out. There is no product that will reverse the procedure. For hair products I suggest you use Creme of Nature Shampoo and Conditioner for hair dressing use African Pride or Lusters Pink Oil Moisturizing Lotion or Mane 'N Tail Carrot Oil Cream or Dr. Miracles hair products work really well.
Trust me that was totally my plan too...keep the relaxed ends as long as possible because i was too afraid to cut my hair....well after taking out some micro braids that I had in I got the BIGGEST knot ever....and had to cut it... :-( but you know what it was so cute, and it felt so much better than dealing with the two textures and all that crap and what else is weird is that even though it looks like lots of new growth when they start cutting your relaxed ends off its NEVER as long as you thought it was...its better to just cut it and be over with...I cut my hair to about two inches long in March and now its at shoulder length...Good luck
Any Black woman knows that we are passionate about our hair. We also know that cutting our hair off is a HARD pill to swallow. I had my last perm August 2003. I DID NOT cut my hair off. The salon I go to specialize in straightening natural hair. Now, I agree with not putting a lot of heat in your hair BUT if it has to be done, let the professionals do it. My hair is very fine (although stronger now) and susceptible to breakage. However, I noticed that I did more damage in the early transition period. If you don't want to get it cut, you have to find somewhere that can help you manage it. I couldn't deal with the idea of wearing it natural so I continued to get it blown straight. I also wore braids (corn rows with extensions) and pony tails. I am still doing a combination based on money, time, and my moods. I might get it blown out, wear a braid out, get braids, ponytails/buns... However, the most important thing I have learned as a three year member of Natural Fi Natural (a group my friends created in college) is that you have to tailor your haircare routine to YOUR hair. What works for my friends may or may not work for me/you. You can ask around and try different things. I would also get a professional to look at your hair and get their advice. I like the Olive Oil and Carrot Oil products. I also use mousse instead of gel when pulling my hair back. I am in a new stage where I want to do something different so I am also on my way to a professional (not the guys that straighten my hair) to get more advice. I'm mentioning this b/c it will be a continuous process for you. I found a website the other day that has some valuable advice. I have listed it below.
Happy Nappy!!!!!

For black women with natural hair: What is the best way to wear your hair when you're half and half?
I am NOT doing the big chop. I am growing the relaxer out. I like how my hair looks when I do a two strand twist, but I worry about if it's damaging to the part that's relaxed. For black women with natural hair: What is the best way to wear your hair when you're half and half?
hey girl...i havent heard good things about the shampoos that strip your hair if relaxers, etc. I am like you. Im growing my hair out. I haven't had a relaxer in my hair since june of 08. What i do is wear what is called ';wet sets.'; I use these rollers that i found off this site called euroteezer.com. They make nice curls for me. Bascially a wet set is rolling up your hair while it's wet and then sit under a dryer til it dries. depending on your hair, the style can last for almost a week in your hair. the longer you keep it in the better. if you have anymore questions feel free to email me.For black women with natural hair: What is the best way to wear your hair when you're half and half?
if you want to get the relaxer out, then you should find this special shampoo that strips your hair of all relaxers and perms, it will make your hair go back to it's natural state.
you could cornrow it or braid it. or senegalese twists could work. there is also rope twists but i think mostly Jamaican hair stylists would know how to do it. moisturize as needed.
