*NEW BEAUTY TIP* Stabilize Dry Hair


If you have processed hair, chances are your locks can be dry and unmanageable at times. I have coarse hair that can be unruly! During washes my hair sometimes feel brittle, fragile, and not smooth to the touch even after using a conditioner that has worked previously. But I have found a loophole for the bad mane moments!


The key phrase for my girls (and guys) that are suffering with this never ending hair battle is "low pH balance". If your hair feels dry and rough, pH balanced products are great at countering this problem.  My suggestion is to stay below a pH level of 5.5 for the curly - kinky hair types.

Here are a couple of great pH balanced products that I keep on deck:

Shampoo
Gary Null's Heavenly Hair Shampoo - Has nothing but natural ingredients and I sometimes skip conditioning because it leaves my hair so silky.

Leave-in Treatment
Nexxus' "Color Ensure" leave-in conditioner - I usually swear off anything containing alcohol for haircare, but this is a great product!

**Remember not to over rinse. Water has a natural pH of 7 and if you rinse too much, you can undo the entire treatment.
