GO to youtube look up keep it simple sister and dusting and black tea rinse on my blog too. taking garlic pills could help drinking water daily doing a deep condition treatment look on youtube avocado hair mask for recipes for mositure conditioning. It is never too late to start taking care of your hair so it is healthy head to skin deep cosmetic database and find out which products to avoid and if your using a hazardous product.

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters The question:

Why with so many scientists...are we still using fossil fuels for energy?

scientist get funding form companies. companies invest in fossil fuels and have been doing so forever perpetuated by fossil fuel being in everything lotion toothpaste floor walls everywhere. The root of all evil is poor education.Children are not born toxin pollution free but they are being born before birth they are conditioned for fossil fuel use they bath play and eat it. The organic movement right now is at a slow crawl due to corporate agendas big companies they want organic farmers to co-exist with genetic agriculture. when the close proximity of genetic modified agriculture contaminants the soil and plants of organic crops cross pollination and ground water mixing. I feel I am among the very few people researching both sides but seeing evidence from working with old people. We live a global experiment how much money will people waste on products that effect a worse in global changes

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker who asked How can I get my relaxed hair healthy?

what you are doing is all wrong your hair needs daily moisture and you should avoid heat. First check out skin deep cosmetic database site and look up the lower hazard products the have to keep your hair healthy. I shampoo ever other week only once using Dr bronner castile soap its organic and gentle and you only use a small amount so you will save money. I never put too many products on my hair so I need to wash it infrequently. Deep condition once a week by mixng 2-3 spoonfuls of extra virgin olive oil and 2 spoonfuls of honey into a moisturizing conditioner blend well apply to hair and let it site for 30 min then rinse. you should find out about spray for daily moisture look up everything I am mentioning on youtube and my blog. also check out keep it simple sista on youtube aka kiss she has relaxed hair and shows how she keeps it healthy and growing.

You're the only one who answered.

Is it normal to have split ends or breakage right at the top of your head?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

change your pillow case check if it is cotton . Cotton pillow case robs your hair of its moisture leading to split ends. To fix your problem look up keep it simple sister dusting video she show you how to take care of split ends. Do a deep conditioning treatment go to youtube look up avocado hair mask. all this is on my blog.also check skin deep and look up the products you use avoid the high hazard rated ones and you will be on you way to healthy hair.

I went into a nutrition store the other day and came across the avocado oil and was about to buy it, but for some reason i decided not to. Now that you mentioned it ( coincidence) i am so going to buy it. It's a *SIGN* lol. You were very informative and your blog is great! Thank You:) xoxo

Science Daily report: conditioner is suppose to protect but most dont

This article was the reason I am telling everyone to check products on Skin Deep. That way you have a better change to not waste money on junk products that do nothing.

Protecting Your Hair
Mechanical Engineer Studies Nanoscale Effects of Hair Conditioners

January 1, 2006 — Hair conditioners can help protect your hair by replacing natural oils that are lost while shampooing. But now, an atomic-force microscope reveals that some conditioners do not protect the hair because they don't interact chemically with hair and uniformly coat its surface.

Permament hair straighting system

Free Magazine from the subway. article about the harmful chemicals 

In the article......  " PLease be aware that Health Canada has issued a warning in regards to Brizilian Blowouts, advising salons to stop using it: its level of formaldehyde exceeds the allowable amount for cosmetic products.Formaldehyde is a cancer causing ingredients that is also apart of some preservative: studies show it affect human health from being exposed ( skin and lungs).

 A close friend is bringing her business from Brazil she distributes only to  professionals in salons and teaches  how to use her products. Her products is natural straightening she has 20 years of using and selling this product. she brought up a troubling fact recently. That most salons professionals are unaware and  believe that formaldehyde is a good ingredient  because it gives products the desired effect they wanted. In short they choose to continue to use the more hazardous product when a safer alternative presented itself.

If anyone is interested in spreading the word  to  any salon using formaldehyde products tell them about this article. Its the salon owners that is at most risk due to more exposure at their  workplace.

Things to remember when taking care of your hair:

Water: what does hard and soft water do to hair why using distilled is best.

hard water is made up of minerals that it picks up from the ground as it goes through the waterways it is great for drinking because of the essential minerals that our bodies love. On hair hard water gives hair a dull look and sticky feel leaving behind soap scum. Hard water makes soap less effective .

Soft water mostly contains sodium which gives it a slitghy salty taste. This water is better for cleaning and is the best to use to get hair feeling clean and look great. To combat the salty nature of soft water it is better to get distilled or deionized. I use distilled water in all my hair care products to give hair the best benefits.
distilled water is available at walmart and other stores.

Hot or warm water should be used before a hair treatment like a deep condition because it open the hair follicles and allows moisture to penetrate into hair that is dry and damaged.

Then to finish the treatment and seal in the moisture it is best to use cool water to seal the follicle. This is just like the pores which open and clues with varying temps.

For more info check out: http://www.freedrinkingwater.com/water-education/quality-water-hard.htm.

Remember drinking more than 8 cups of regular water daily is key to hair growth will lessen dry skin. Water is naturals moisturizer and all hair types can benefit form increasing daily water intake.

Family is awesome Happy Holidays everyone ^_^

Time well spent with my sister doing crafts and shopping getting ready for business this is what we came up with.
 hair and accessories by me. My sister will be my hair mode. When I started getting into healthy hair care it was because I saw a chance to make not only my hair better but my sister's as well looking shiny and growing. All her life she has had great hair but is was not until I starting treating it better that now she is on the way to having waist  lengths.

My own creation pink rainbow head band

My model hair style Faux hawk twist with hair accessory

Update.Dr broonner

Still loving my Dr bronner castile soap but now I know its limit. Once you let products build up on  hair the two week mark then you will need to use something other than bronner. That's why I have posted about apple cider rinse for  when we let those  hair care products build up.

Continue to use Skin Deep cosmetic data base for product hazard study reports for full fact on research being done. The more I read the labels of products the more I just want to give up on more use less and less. My skin loves this and so does my hair I like having soft moisturize hair and skin no more drying damaging products for me. Hazard rating of 0-2 is products I stand behind do the same I believe you can have better.

Hair care. build up

What is build up- build up is the product that sticks to the root and whole strand of hair from products we use daily oils and pure clogging substances.

It is important to use the proper shampoo to take care of this build up. Mixing Apple cider vinegar and water is environmentally safer alternative that works to cleanse and clarify hair of product built up also has excellent pH balancing benefits. The best way is to mix 1 part apple cider vinegar and 3 part water or fill a large size cup with water and add 1 spoonful of apple cider vinegar. On hair sites this is call the AVC method of hair watching for signs of build up dry irritated scalp. kinky to curly and Oily hair types can benefit but be careful not to over do it this is a individual needs basis. Finding the right process that works for you. For me its a once a month  or once every two months deal low key simple. Like people  use to say back in the day if its not broken don't fix it. So if something works for you, your hair is already healthy then doing this is not for you. Try this if you need improvement to managing your hair get shine.

For kids to help manage kinky curly types and use for gentle entangling.

Here is a youtube video what you mix should look like..

Heads up Read your labels for ingredients I would avoid

Products that contain These ingredients Sodium Laureth Sulfate and Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, Can cause epidermal changes and various other unwanted effects like skin irritations. Most shampoo and conditioner  contain not only those ingredients mention but  DMDM Hydantoin, a paraben that releases formaldehyde link to cancer is something that I am reading labels trying to avoid.  Watch out for the PEG-150  ingredient, a substance that has been linked to cancer.
Oh and these chemicals also mimic estrogen which studies show to be  a contributing factor in the rise of female cancer also cancer of the skin. This is because these chemicals basically weakens the skin so that environmental contaminants are more able to penetrate the lower layers of  skin. Products that contain theses hazards are:
Soaps
Shampoos/conditioner
Bubble-baths
Tooth paste
Washing-up liquid / dish soap
Laundry detergent
Children soaps / shampoos
Stain Remover
Carpet Cleaner
Fabric glue
Body wash
Shave cream
Mascara
Mouthwash

Publish Post

Skin cleanser
Moisture lotion 
Sun screen

doing a video...have to figure out how to edit. I am doomed

oh yes going to make a video and post it soon just to talk about the results I have experienced with using a more organic products to get my hair healthy shiny and soft.I may do a detox clay hair mask and show how to define curls and remove toxin from the scalp. Thank you to all my visitors hope that I am making it easy for you to have healthy look hair.^_^

I will be writing a letter to Procter and Gambler.. Reason I check out Aussie sun touched

this is a preview of what you see on the website so check it out.below are links to the EWG. I used Aussie sun touched shine a few months ago seeing what product I should keep then looked the product  up on EWG and I was concerned with it's 5 rating on  the site.

Ingredients in this product are linked to:
	Cancer
	Developmental/reproductive toxicity
	Allergies/immunotoxicity
	Use restrictions
	Other concerns for ingredients used in this product: Neurotoxicity, Organ system toxicity (non-reproductive), Miscellaneous, Irritation (skin, eyes, or lungs), Enhanced skin absorption, Occupational hazards

I was thinking of sending  it back  to the company with a  complaint but...1-8-no-worries is not going to help me forget that things need to change now. I am going to state in the letter  how I would like all harmful elements removed due to information I just learned from the cosmetic database but I cant send the bottle back beyond 30 days lamefest.

A friend is trying this product (Carol's Daughter)

I checked the cosmeticdatabase. I am happy to report some of the products from this company have a very low hazard rating..I will be be getting  review next month.

I started out doing this blog...

I started  doing this blog because I was amazed how healthy my hair can be when making my own hair care products. I will continue doing research for  ingredients that promote health and have a positive impact on the next generation. Reading products labels is the only way to keep children safe from toxins.The black community  have no easy access to the information that we all need  to make better safer choices.

I have taken this blog beyond hair care to  bringing  awareness to the hazardous ingredients present in everyday products. I noticed that most products geared to African American hair types in Canada contain some of the worst hazards. People try to look and feel the best they can and the products we use can do the opposite.These products are drying cancer causing have  aging also irritating elements which is damaging to our health and beauty. I think black people  are being exposed to more and more harmful ingredients from the product we have to use in maintaining our hair and skin.

My hair is finally healthy and  its because of all the research I have done.  I  embarked on this journey due to the  lack of natural products offered for my hair and now I am giving anyone the information they will find most helpful.  So people  Read labels and  be sure to avoid the drying elements(alcohol) clogging elements(petroleum) damaging elements(mdm parebens..... a long list) being put in products which is having a toxic affect in our bodies and the planet. All the site I post are what I found most helpful to me to get the best benefits and keep away from toxins. So thank you all for dropping by be sure to drop in again and tell a friend ^_^

Dont take my word for it see some facts for yourself.

All the science just a click away. One question you may have is Does EWG ( environmental working group ) endorse products or brands?
No. Skin Deep was designed for educational purposes only. EWG does not sell or endorse any brands or products. Product ratings are brand-blind, based on a hazard classification scoring system that applies product by product, and are subject to change as scientific data develops and becomes public.

Forgot the best tip for healthy hair

Yes people your grandma was right satin or silk  pillow  cases bonnets or scarfs  can help your hair. If you ever awaken to find your hair feeling dry and looking dull your cotton pillow case was the cause. Cotton is super absorbent that is why  as you  sleep on a cotton pillow case it will not matter how often you give your hair moisture. Cotton will dry it right our again.Moisture is key to maintain healthy shiny hair and lack of moisture is one of the issues that damage curly and ethnic hair types.
