My main goal is moisturized strong hair, which I manage to achieve with my own rules. I always say DO YOU! some women aren't even aware of all these rules, yet their hair thrives. Some (like myself) are aware, but our hair still struggle. ~Adeola~https://www.blogger.com/profile/10261328165151534532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143366796764247140.post-35534965091724683752012-05-03T19:46:05.345+01:002012-05-03T19:46:05.345+01:00You and I are together on number 1.

Have you tried sealing your hair with Shea Butter or thick natural oils like castor oil, instead of petroleum products?<br /><br />Eeewwww, white marks? Sorry. I guess you should start boiling it before using it, or stop completely.

Hair is a thing of beauty and joy please don't bug it rule jare. So on the rebel side, I use good old DAX on my hair and it has petroleum as one of its ingredients. We have very dry hair and it helps to seal moisture too. Just hearing about the cone rule. I never sleep with a bonnet but I am not all that bad, I use a satin pillow. I have never washed our hair with distilled water.I don't use sulphate based shampoos and i always section.Okeoghenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06374233345612835685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6143366796764247140.post-62221932664541242512012-04-11T13:31:13.653+01:002012-04-11T13:31:13.653+01:00I definitely break the no petroleum rule on a dail...I definitely break the no petroleum rule on a daily basis. However, to my defense, I have extremely dry hair and the only way I can keep moisture in my hair for 12 hours is to seal with petroleum jelly. Using just water and coconut oil is not enough for my thirsty hair. <br />I also use silicones and sulfates. I just learned it was bad for hair this summer. I tried using Dr. Bronner's/African Black soap in liquid form but it left my hair dry, so dry I was afraid it was going to catch fire. LOL. Anyway, I plan to remedy that one. <br />Lastly, I don't use distilled water. However where I live now has the worst water. I mean, I see white marks on everything, I can't imagine what it's doing to my hair.

I just run the tap and go with the flow....<br /><br />I use products with sulphur *covers face*, i once suffered sectional dandruff and that was the only way to go, infact I was so scared of it spreading that *whispers* I grinded camphor into engine oil!<br /><br />Yes I almost cried from the sensation but it got rid of the dandruff DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!<br /><br />I go to bed without a bonnet most times... my excuse - there's hardly ever electricity and the heat is unbearable, if I must get a good night sleep I gotta free myself abegP.E.T.
