Question: Please
help me figure out how to grow my hair as I have
been natural for 3 years now and my hair breaks off
then growns back. I keep micros and kinky twist in
my hair.
Answer: For natural hair to grow you have to keep it well moisturized and conditioned. Using the wrong products, or products not made for your hair type, can lead to breakage. Also wearing synthetic hair can cause damage because it adds weight to the hair shaft and pulls on your hair.

Tips For Styling Medium Length Natural African Hair

Question: Found
your site while looking for different ways to style
medium length african hair naturally. Do you have
any recommendations for safe styling for this
length? Mine is about mid back length when
stretched. Thanks in advance.
Answer: To maintain natural medium length afro textured hair, my recommendations regardless of the style you choose are:
1. Keep your hair soft by using gentle, natural hair care products (shampoos, hair oils, conditioners). Avoid mineral oil, petrolatum, and sulfates in your hair care products because they lead to hair dryness which can cause hair breakage.
2. Avoid styles that pull on your hairline. Tight braids, weaves, extensions, etc. if done frequently enough cause traction alopecia.
One method of maintaining natural afro hair is with wet styling. That is where you use conditioners and oils to bring out the natural wave pattern in your hair. You can vary the styles daily (if you have the time) or leave a style in for a week at a time. It is an all natural method of hair care that can look very beautiful if done properly.
