A "Hair Food" Breakfast Drink

I was reading Hype Hair, and I love this magazine. This magazine has so many different hairstyles and tips. This magazine actually gives you a little step by step instruction on how to create the styles you see . Anyway, I read about this hair tonic that I am going to try. This tonic is suppose to include essential vitamins that are needed for healthy hair. I read somewhere, in order to have healthy hair you have to start before it grows. That means giving yourself the vitamins and nutrients to grow hair healthy, not just work on the hair after it has grown. So here are the ingredients...Oh and I am not recommending this until I try it. So if you try it on your own I am not responsible for the results. Well I will try this recipe for Two months and see if I notice any improvement on my hair....

Ingredients:

8 oz Plain Yogurt

8 oz Orange Juice

3 Tablespoons of Wheat Germ

1 Teaspoon of Vitamin C Crystals

1 Raw Egg Yolk

1 Tablespoon Unflavored Gelatin Powder

Honey (for flavor) You don't have to add it.

OK so the recipe in the magazine calls for 1 Tablespoon of Lecithin Crystals, and 3 Tablespoons of Brewers Yeast. I looked up these ingredients and was not sure if I should consume them. First of all Brewers Yeast is not the kind that will cause Yeast infections. It's not related to Candida albicans fungus. I did read it causes side affects like hypertension, and if you have diabetes you should not take it. Well that was enough for me to stay away from it.

Lecithin is already in our body. It's a lipid material made of choline and inositol. This helps nutrients flow in and out our cells. There are natural sources of Lecithin. You ingest it when you eat egg yolk, wheat germ, legumes and more. So I think if I add Wheat Germ I can leave out the Lecithin? Well I am. The side effects are present when you take larger amounts above 10 to 30 grams. Side affects include weight gain, headaches, dizziness, bad breath and more. Yeah to risky for me.

OK so I know how to get eggs, orange juice, unflavored gelatin, honey and plain white yogurt. Where do I find Wheat Germ, and Vitamin C Crystals? Hmmmm So I found out it's at GNC or my local supermarket. Vitamin C Crystals are at GNC as well. Well stay tuned and I'll tell you my results.

Sensational Instant Weave

I like this style, because it's really easy. I want to point out to those who wear Instant Weave, or some call it Half Wig, to make sure you still take care of the hair underneath. Here are a few pointers--

1. Try to braid your hair in a circle so the comb can go into the hair without causing discomfort to the scalp.

2. Make sure you moisturize the hair before you wear the Instant Weave.

Here is a video showing how you can apply the Instant Weave without keeping some of your hair out. You can of course leave a bang out as well.

Healthy Hair, Be Weave It or Not Part I The Weave

It's true that you can grow healthy hair with a weave. Leave a comment, and tell me what you think?

Types of Weaving:

Bonding- This is the worst way your stylist can install your weave. The glue tears the hair off. Just think about it.....it's glue. I recommend no one glue in hair. Maybe quick weaves? Not sure, what do you think?

Tracks- The weave is sewn directly onto the hair, by braiding the hair. When your hair grows this method allows the hair to not look bulky. You can leave some of the hair out in the front to blend in with the weave for a more natural look.

Net or Cap method- The best method. Why? The net covers the braids, and your stylist sews the weave onto the net. The weave is not sewn on the hair, and this allows the hair to grow to it's full potential.

First be advised, when purchasing hair you get what you pay for. Cheap hair is cheap for a reason.

Remi Hair: AKA Virgin hair. This hair can be reused for years with proper care. Remi hair is directly shaved and gathered so all the strands go in the same direction. The hair remains undisturbed so it will last longer. Remi hair may be expenses but it avoids having to keep buying hair. More about Remi hair go to

Maintaining your Weave:

Depending on the type of hair you purchase, treat it like it's your real hair. Make sure it's washed and conditioned. You can even wrap it up at night. You can wash and condition the weave, but not like you do your real hair. I heard of a squish method. The squish method is where you squish shampoo through the hair.

More about washing weave got to http://www.ehow.com/how_5790911_care-remy-hair-wigs.html

Please do not allow your weave to start looking worn and abused. Since your hair is growing underneath, you need to redo the weave at least every three months. (Hoping you bought the good hair) Also when it becomes loose, you can have your stylist tighten the weave.

Please have your stylist take your weave out if you don't know how. Why cut out hair you worked so hard to grow?

After you take the weave out, make sure you deep condition your hair. Cut your permed hair to the length you want. If you are not transitioning still have the ends clip and keep your hair well moisturized.

Is your hair shedding or breaking off?

I hate combing and seeing hair in my comb. The first thing that comes to mind, is my hair's unhealthy or weak. Well little did I know till recently, my hair could be shedding naturally, and not just breaking off.

Shedding:

Is actually a normal process of hair growth. You will know that your hair is shedding when you see a white bulb on the end of the hair you find in the comb, floor or wherever you find it. This piece of hair has shed because another piece will push through. Shedding will also occur because of pregnancy, stress, and hormonal changes.

Breakage:

Occurs when the hair becomes weak, and breaks off. Hair weakens from lack of nutrition, perms, permanent curls, dyes, excessive heat, dryness, and the list goes on.

Preventing Breakage: With brittle and dry hair, use a moisture shampoo, and conditioner. For hair that has been permed or dyed, the structure has been changed lacking nutrients and hydration. Take vitamins ,use water-based products (moisturizers), and or apply oil to the hair everyday. Everyone may not need to add oil to their hair every day.
