Doing my daily rounds on the internet, I found this article on Essence.com about the most common myths for “black hair.” When I read this article I was surprised at a few of the myths because from my experience, I have found them to be true. I will share which hair myth I am referring to once you get through reading the article.
Via Essence.com Interview with Ursula Stephens (celebrity hair stylist)
MANE MYTH: Natural hair is stronger than relaxed hair.
TRESS TRUTH: According to Stephen, natural hair is actually quite fragile. “It should be treated gently at all times to prevent breakage,” she says. To maintain your strands’ strength, never brush your natural hair while it’s wet; instead, use a detangling comb or your fingers. Also, skip cotton pillowcases — the rough fibers can cause fragile hair to break off. Try a silk or satin pillowcase, or wrap your hair in a silk scarf.
MANE MYTH: Braids make hair grow.
TRESS TRUTH: We think this myth started when Black women began sporting braids to carry them through the grow-out process. But while braids are a cute style option, they have nothing to do with the rate of hair growth. “Hair grows about a half inch a month, period,” says Stephen. “Strong, healthy hair comes from the inside out… it has nothing to do with any attachments you might wear!”
MANE MYTH: Black hair doesn’t need to be shampooed often.
TRESS TRUTH: According to Stephen, there isn’t a “correct” schedule for washing hair, but infrequent shampooing can result in dirt, oil and product buildup, which weighs down the hair shaft and makes it look dull. It’s best to wash hair once a week, at least.
MANE MYTH: Greasing your scalp keeps hair healthy.
TRESS TRUTH: Stephen says that grease actually clogs pores, which can inhibit scalp circulation and hair growth! “A healthy scalp is gained by a healthy diet,” she adds. To help maintain strong, healthy hair, eat tons of proteins (like fish and chicken), and foods high in vitamin C, which help with scalp circulation.
Oxford shoes are definitely on trend for Fall 2010. So many stylish women have been rocking these cute and sophisticated shoes for many seasons now. I have wanted a pair since last year, but I did not find a pair that I was in love with or fit my budget….until now.
These Oxfords are great for creating sophisticated and chic looks. What’s even better is the price. They are only $19.99 and can be purchased at Target. I prefer the brown/cognac pair over the black.
There are endless possibilities with these shoes. Pair them with skinny jeans or leggings or even your summer floral dresses, if paired with tights.
Place your order today or visit your nearest Target to see if they are in stock.
