Inexpensive Ways to Care for Hair

I'm an African American housewife . How can I take care of my hair without spending alot of money?

Thank you for your question

Many other women are faced with the same dilemma. So I say that to say, you are not alone. With the responsibilities of caring for a household many times we do put ourselves last. God willing you will be blessed for that. But it is important to remember our husband also has a right to see us at our best. So here are a few inexpensive ways to care for your tresses. Buy an inexpensive mild conditioner like Sauve. This conditioner is so mild it can even be left in the hair as a leave-in one if you have thick naturally curly hair. Honey, yes honey when applied as a conditioner and covered with a shower cap. Rinsed with warm water will leave your hair feeling unbelievably soft. It's amazing all the benefits in this sweet thick liquid. Get a really good hair oil, such as coconut oil, avocado oil or olive oil. Again natural oils. Only use a wide tooth comb. Fine combs can leave micro tears in the hair strand along with some brushes. Make sure you tie your hair down at night, style it in a pony tail, or use a satin pillow case or cap of which I think works best.

You can maintain your hair quite well if you put a regimen together. Shampoo, condition, and oil your scalp and trim your ends as needed. Put it in rollers and all you will have to do is take them out in the morning. Don't forget to tie it down if its prone to breakage. I hope this gives you some ideas to help take care of your hair in a feasible way.
