Black Hair Styles

Generally, you can style young girls’ hair without the use of styling products. Since my daughters are young, mostly, they’re in ponytails, plaits, braids or the like. But, I mix it up and am very cautious about overly tight styles that can lead to scalp damage and even a certain type of hair loss. I especially avoid any styling products that might be drying to their hair. You’ll want to be very careful with hair sprays, mousse products, gels etc. But, there are a few aids I use for certain hair styles to provide hold or some straightening:

• Treasured Locks Curl Tamer- use this on the occasions when you want the hair a little straighter to completely straight. Combined with a blow dryer, this allows me to easily get their hair ready for styles for certain occasions.
• Treasured Locks Thermo Shield- spray that provides protection from heat damage when flat-ironing, using a curling iron or pressing.
• Nubian Heritage Raw Shea Butter Loc Butter- great all natural Shea Butter based loc butter that I’ll use for twists or styles where I want a little more hold
• Treasured Locks Locks of Curls Pomade & Gel- provides hold and moisture in one product. An aloe vera based gel product with Shea Butter oil and other natural moisturizers & softeners. This is great for two strand twists or to hold braids in longer and with less frizzing. Also can be used to work kinky hair into curly hair.
