Hair Styling Tip - Hair Growth

People always ask how they can get their hair to grow faster and longer. They want to know what products and procedures to use for longer, thicker, more lustrous hair. Well, right now we’re going to clarify for you a few things about hair growth and help you get that hair you’ve always wanted.

First, let’s point out the obvious: hair grows from the scalp. If your hair stops growing from your scalp, you start going bald. So, if you’re not going bald, your hair is still growing.

But my hair never grows long enough, you say? Then the problem isn’t hair growth; it’s how you treat your hair once it has grown out from the scalp. If you weaken your hair after it has grown out from your scalp, it is prone to breakage. And that breakage will make it seem as if your hair just isn’t growing. So prevent the breakage and you promote healthy, longer hair growth.

Here are some of the many ways we can damage our hair:

Chemical processing – Relaxing or perming your hair can weaken the bonds in your hair shaft, resulting in easy breakage.

Strenuous combing and brushing – Added stress to the hair can break hair easily, as you can see when you look at your brush or comb.

Excessive heat without heat protection – Heat damages hair easily, so be sure to use a pure silicone product like Simply Stylin’ Silk to coat the hair before applying heat.

Failure to trim ends regularly – Trimming removes split ends that will do nothing but continue to split right on your hair shaft and break your hair.

Hair Styling Tip - Wig Maintenance

Proper maintenance of your wigs will improve their longevity and appearance. Here are some important steps to follow.

1) First, gently brush out your wig to remove any tangles (unless the wig is extremely curly and/or it came with a tag telling you that it shouldn't be brushed). Most of the longer styles will become quite matted towards the back, and it may be necessary to separate the tangled strands gently with your fingers. Apply Simply Stylin’ Light Silk Spray to aid in brushing and easy removal of any tangles.

2) When the wig is ready to be washed, fill the sink with about 2 quarts of cool water. Never use hot water, as this could relax the curl that was set into the wig during the manufacturing process. Pour about 2 capfuls of shampoo into the water and then submerge the wig. When the wig is fully wet, swish it around for about a minute and then let soak for about another minute.

3) Remove the wig and rinse in cold water until no suds remain. Then place the wig on a bath towel to completely dry overnight. It is all right to blot the wig with a towel, but don’t twist the wig or ring it out. You can use your fingers to gently separate and arrange the strands as the wig is drying, but don’t try to comb or brush the wig while still wet. The fibers could be stretched to the breaking point.

4) After the wig is dry, spray lightly with Simply Stylin’ Light Silk Spray to restore the shine and luster and aid in manageability.

5) Mist your wig with Simply Stylin’ Light Silk Spray regularly to keep it looking new and fresh.
