Tips from EAGLE EYE

1. Be a lady with an eagle eye : 

         Having an eagle eye here means you should be more cautious of your hair growth, health and status, you should be able to pick and sense changes in your hair as quick as possible.

        Assuming i wasn't able to pick the signal of hair loss from my hair as early as possible, and didn't undo the hairdo until it reached two weeks, it is certain that the amount of hair loss especially at the front line would be more than I experienced after loosing it on the 5th day

     You should be more cautious of your hair when;

💐 You tried out a new style, to know how compatible it is with your hair type,your hair might be too soft to bear the strain from such hairdo. 

💐 A new stylist styles your hair,because 

        🔹it's possible that she styles most of her customers hair with attachments, so she is used to styling hair with extra force to plait the attachment with the hair. She might have applied this same extra force while styling your hair without attachments.

       🔹Another contributing factor could be that she is newly trained into the profession. It's normal for new trainees to add extra force while making hair. The feeling is that it's the force that makes the hairdo come out fine and pleasing to the eyes. Most stylists exhibit this feature at the early stage of their training/work, and gets over it with experience overtime.

2. Don't be too quiet: 

        o ye quite ones, I know you are shy, or probably you are just been quiet because you want to give the stylist her autonomy,but still  there are some situations that requires you to speak out, just like the hairline suicide that happened in the story. 

        Don't be like me who knows the consequences of pulling on edges while making hair and still kept quiet when I noticed the stylist was doing so.

      If you don't pity yourself for the pain you would feel, pity yourself for the hair that you might lost because of being quiet. 

3. Having an idea is not bad:

       Yes styling might not be your field and you might not have any interest in it, but still, there's nothing bad if you have an idea. It might not be of use on a normal day, but think of unavoidable cases like this COVID-19 lock down. You probably have not been able to meet with that your favorite stylist. Does that mean your hair have to suffer? 

      Just imagine if I wasn't able to twist my hair myself that day, I would probably not want to loosen my hair because of the fear of bearing an untidy hair and have it been susceptible to more hair loss, or would have loosened it, but leave it to undergo another resting period before I get the chance to make another style.

DETANGLING

This is a haircare process that involves the gentle removal of coiled, laced or twisted mass of hair that is highly interwoven and difficult to comb.

 Detangling is done slowly and carefully and when the hair stands are wet to reduce pain, breakage and damage to the cuticles.

 There are two types of detangling,

1. Dry detangling (hair is about 30 % wet, damped)

2. Wet detangling(hair is about 70 % wet, soaked or dripping wet)

The two types involves same process and tool, but differs with the rate of wetness, conditions that necessitates them, the hair type and sometimes, the hair care product used.

 The two types have their pros and cons, which will be discussed later insha'Allah.

 So about the process, detangling can be achieved by

1. Wetting and conditioning the hair: when water, conditioner and/or oil are generously applied to the hair, it lubricates the hair and reduces friction in it. The lubricating effect of these hair care products allows comb or brush to glide through the hair easily, thereby reducing the pain that would have accompanied the difficult combing of a tangled hair.

 Note that when the hair is wet, it is in a weak state, and this necessitates being gentle while detangling.

 Also, the conditioner should be a leave-in conditioner, except you want to go through the stress of rinsing your hair when you make use of the wash-out conditioner.

 The leave-in conditioner is more encouraged, because you get the extra advantage of nourishing your hair your hair.

TWO TO TANGO

Ehn ehn, before you start fantasizing, loving and awwwwning about the hairdo👇, please read what I have to say.

 Hair generally 

🌱 Can be in different forms,

🌱 Is classified under different types

🌱 Have different textures

🌱 Differ in density

🌱 Is of different length

Hair Individually 

✨ Receives different care, maintenance and product. 

✨ Is of different grooming practice and health status.

 The frizzy and shinny rate, the structure, regimen, porosity, pH, chemistry, morphology,amongst other factors are what determines the final outlook of a particular hairdo with your hair, it also explains the reason why a particular hairdo will look 80% with sister A's hair and it looks 40% with your hair.

 So now you should know that you can't come with a natural,type 4C, coarse, medium densed, short, uncared, poorly groomed, frizzy, non shinny, poorly regimented hair, and expect to get the same result with a relaxed,type 2A, fine, fully densed, long, cared, highly groomed, non frizzy, shinny, highly regimented hair.

 Ohh yes you can get a better result than you are getting now, and it all starts from working on the factors I have listed previously. If you don't get it naturally, then work for it intentionally,with the appropriate hair care and product just as Beebah's hairdo have always been propagating.

 When the hairdo is nice, people not only praise the stylist, they also praise your hair. So that tells you that it takes two to tango. 

 You don't expect the stylist to play her part by making the hairdo, and you are being negligent with your part by not grooming the hair well.
