How do I get hair shrinkage?

If your hair is shrinking or thinning…it means there are high DHT levels in your body. DHT dihydrotestosterone is a hormone which is responsible for hair thinning. DHT attacks the hair follicles which in turn makes our hair weak and they fall out.There are few products which can control your hair thinning and you can also intake food that act as DHT blocker. First visit the hair expert. He/She will examine you and will tell you the exact cause of your hair thinning.

What are some natural ways to tame frizzy hair?

Coconut oil is a great way to tame your curls or like in Italy use olive oil.  If you need more control put sugar and water in a spray bottle or sprite and use as a light hairspray with a little oil on the mid lengths to the end of your hair.  Here are a few other tips to help maintain control over your curls:While in shower condition hair with a detangling conditioner and brush hair while in shower with comb or brush of choice.  I prefer the tangle Teezer personally as it is safer on your hair when brushing while wet, pulls out all the hair that has shed without damaging the rest of the hair that is still attached and is pain free (great for kids).  When it comes to picking out a conditioner use one meant for your hair type that has detangling properties to it.  Rinse out conditioner.  Keep in mind the cooler the water on the hair the better.  Hotter water steams the cuticles of the hair open, making it frizzier and dull.  Cooler water helps the cuticle to shrink and hug the hair shaft making it smoother and shinier.  A point to consider is when you go in a hot tub notice how your hair is frizzy while the meantime when you swim in cooler waters and get out your hair is shiny.Once out towel BLOT, not rub hair; use towel to scrunch out major portions of water.  Rubbing hair with towel to try will only cause frizz and the hair to break from the pack to form the perfect curl formation and condition you are looking to sport.  Micro Fiber Cloths work great for soaking up all the bulk mixture.Do not comb hair after out of shower; you already did when you brushed or combed out any of the lose hairs while in the shower with the conditioner.  The WHOLE purpose of brushing is to only remove natural hair shed to prevent tangles.Apply your oils mid length to ends (avoid the roots as it will only give you an oily scalp) and let air dry or diffuse.  And add the sugar water or sprite mixture of you feel you need more control.  :)

I want my hair done like this... but my hair shrinks? ANY PROFESSIONALS THAT KNOW ALOT ABOUT HAIR?

triniti,

greetings lady. I am not a professional but I do know a lot about natural hair. Ok let's talk prep.

Your need to be moisturized before you start. So that means co-wash, deep conditioner, and finally a leave in. We don't want your hair needing moisture....this will keep the frizziness down.

Next we need a nice curling cream. I don't know your climate, hair texture or eating habits so I can not suggest a curly cream for you but i use a mixture of gel/curly custard and mix a liquid oil. This will help form the curl and seal in the moisture.

Roller set the hair. Let it air dry if you do not wish to use heat.

Ooooh snap let me back up! To stretch your hair check out the Curl Tee towel video on my website. I used it to stretch my hair without a long drawn out technique.

Ok so the hair is dry now you use a silicon to seal in the curls and reduce shrinkage.

Tie the hair up in a loose bun and wrap in a silk/satin scarf.

I have shrinkage too and by pineappling or loose bun keeps the hair stretch too. Silicon helps keep the moisture out of the hair and thus prevents shrinkage and frizziness too.

Hope this helps.

What is the best way to trim your own natural hair of split or dead ends?

If you want to trim or dust your own natural hair of split ends start by investing in a professional style hair cutting scissors.You don’t have to spend a fortune on hair cutting scissors, but it’s important to use scissors which are only used on hair.Any other type of scissors which is used on paper or other objects develops a dull edge which can damage and tear delicate strands when you trim it.Check out any large beauty supply chain which sells hair cutting scissors in an array of prices.Once you have a pair of scissors for trimming your hair make sure not to use them for any other reason but for trimming your hair.Although not everyone agrees, I find that trimming or dusting my ends work better right after my hair is freshly washed and dry.Freshly washed hair seems to plump the ends and make the splits more obvious.Make sure to put down a protective covering of some sort, or trim your hair into a trash receptacle to avoid getting tiny hairs all over your floor.Start at one side of your head and work in small sections.Gently brush your hair with a 100% boar bristle brush. Hold up the ends of a small target section of hair with your fingers.Look for splits and dead ends.Trim slightly above the split section with your scissors. It’s not necessary to trim more than just about the split.Repeat this process working slowly around your entire head.Although it may be a tedious task, it can also be very Zen or relaxing.Make sure to sit in front of an area with bright light so the split ends are most obvious.If you want a hair professional to trim your split ends without taking a lot of hair off the bottom you can ask them to dust your ends.Dusting usually involves trimming anywhere from 1/16th of an inch to 1/8th inch of hair off the ends in a uniform manner.Good luck to you.DISCLAIMER: I neither sell nor promote any companies, their products, nor do I have any online shopping outlet of my own to promote. What I write is based upon my own experience and belief in the techniques I share.

Why does hair shrink when it's dirty?

When you have gone without washing your hair for a couple of days (as you should), it's not shrinking because of damage. It's not shrinking or losing any length if you measure it. It's not really “dirty” either.The hair may appear to be shrinking because the natural oils have been able to get into the hair and repair it a little bit. When hair is in better condition, natural curl or wave will return. Giving the apperance of “shrinkage”.Most people wash their hair to often. You should only be washing with shampoo 2–3x a week maximum. Less of you can.Shampoo is for the scalp and conditioner is for the hair. Not everyone knows this.Running water from the shower is enough to rinse residue from the head. The oils we produce are natural and have a purpose. Refresh with conditioner on the shafts of hair if you must. Try to avoid the scalp.
