navigating your natural hair journey can be tough when first starting out. here are some hacks to help make things a bit easier!

storage hacks

keep hair tools accessible yet out of the way by storing them in a metal file box. attach to your wall or cabinet with hooks to keep them handy without creating an eyesore.

1.

always losing bobby pins? if you like Tic Tacs, reuse the container as a bobby pin holder. the little opening is perfect for emptying one pin at a time when you're ready!

2.

wash day hacks

swap your towel for an old tee shirt to dry your hair. this will prevent the snags & breakage that the fibers of regular towels can cause.

3.

cleanse scalp while wearing braids: dilute shampoo with water in applicator bottle & apply directly to the scalp. GENTLY massage to loosen buildup. rinse with warm water.

4.

place a sheet of plastic wrap in your sink while detangling to keep your curls & kinks from clogging up the drain.

5.

hair styling hacks

to make twist-outs look neat 'til your next trim, curl your ends with perm or flexi rods or wrap them onto themselves to form bantu knots. you’ll have a cleaner result instead of straggly ends.
