Natural Hair Care - 1 Easy Tip To Grow Hair Quickly

Are you sick of your curls not growing? Are you trying to grow your hair and it gets to a certain point and wont go any further?

I have 1 simple easy tip to help your hair grow longer and thicker!

Organic Rosemary Essential Oil


When I was transitioning from relaxed to natural during 2013, I would mix at least 20 drops of the essential oil with warm water, let that cool and then spritz all over my hair - this really helped to stimulate hair growth and grew out my relaxed hair much quicker.

2 years since cutting off all my relaxed hair and my hair is 100% natural and almost at bra strap length and very thick!

Organic Rosemary Essential Oil is seriously a wonder oil and here's why:
  1. The antimicrobial and antiseptic properties of this oil will help to fight bacterial infections and other harmful organisms on the hair and scalp.
  2. This oil encourages hair follicles to produce new hair growth.
  3. The nutrients in the oil help to nourish and condition the scalp and hair, which promotes healthy hair growth.
  4. This oil stimulates hair follicles into producing new hair.

You can add the rosemary essential oil to many of your day to day haircare products, like your shampoo, conditioner, hair spritz, carrier oils to incorporate it in your haircare regime.

FYI: Never use Rosemary essential oil without diluting it.

So, if your trying to grow longer, thicker tresses, try this essential oil out and let me know if it works as good for you as it did me!

Natural Hair Care - Best Deep Conditioners For Naturally Curly Hair!

Happy Sunday! I love Sunday's!

Sunday for me is a day to recharge and prepare for the week ahead (full time worker life), this includes making sure all the laundry is done, my flat is clean & tidy and my curls are washed, deep conditioned and ready for the week ahead!

Today I will be showing you beauties my top deep conditioners for my natural curly hair. Enjoy...


First, it's my fave SheaMoisture Deep Treatment Masque -

This was the first SheaMoisture product I ever tried, I bought it in Target when I was in New York a few years ago and I loved it so much, I noticed a massive difference in my hair from the very first time I used it!

It's super creamy and with ingredients like Shea Butter, Argan Oil, Sea Kelp, Avocado Oil and Carrot Seed Oil, you know this deep conditioner is packing a punch and ready to tackle whatever the issue may be with your curly hair.

I save this one for when my tresses are feeling brittle and damaged due to whatever reason, I drench my hair in this product, put on a plastic shower cap and leave it on for a good hour, or I will put on my thermal hood from Sally's Beauty Supply and let it sit there for 20 mins.

Second is the Mixed Chicks Deep Conditioner -

I use this conditioner when my curls are frizzy, need some defining and extra moisture. I also love to use this conditioner as my co-wash too, it's so good at making my hair feel clean, soft and moisturised - if you are looking for an all rounder conditioner that can also be used as a co-wash, this one may be what you have been searching for...

 
Third is of course another SheaMoisture product, it's the SheaMoisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Grow & Restore Treatment Masque -
 
This conditioner is so luxurious and powerful, it has JBCO which has numerous benefits when trying to grow your curls longer and healthier, as well as Organic Shea Butter for extra moisture. I like to use this conditioner at least every other week to maintain healthy hair growth.
 
Finally to the newbie of the group, the SheaMoisture Superfruit Complex 10-in-1 Renewal System Hair Masque -  
 
This product gives me life and it smells so good! It has ingredients like Biotin for thicker hair, Marula Oil for elasticity, Coconut oil, Shea Butter and SheaMoisture's Superfruit Complex which includes Red Raspberry Ketones, Goji Berries, Acai and Guava which provides your hair will an all round pick me up.
 
When I first used this deep conditioner on my natural curls, my hair literally felt like it had just had a spa treatment lol it was calm, smooth, looked much more vibrant and smelt amazing! I will defo be trying out more of the SheaMoisture Superfruit Complex range!
 
So, to all my curly girls I hope you will be trying out a few of my suggested conditioners to help keep your curls long, strong and luxurious!
