Healthy and Shiny Hair
Shiny but Healthy Hair

Shiny but Healthy Hair Essay Rivers, Page 1

Over the years my hairdresser Lisa has taught me that it is important to have healthy and shiny hair. Having unhealthy hair can cause baldness. Although, the weather and unhealthy eating habits can also cause damage to your hair and it is important to maintain beautiful, shiny, and healthy hair. One way of maintaining healthy hair is to eat right and drink plenty of water. Another way is to use hair care products that will strengthen and protect your hair from the elements. Because I cannot afford to go see Lisa every two weeks, I decided to research for hair care products that will keep my hair healthy. After reading the latest August issue of Ebony magazine I came across two advertisements for hair care. The first advertisement Olive Oil, Nature's Secret to Healthy Hair explains what each of their products can do for my hair. For instance, the Olive Oil No-Lye Relaxer has built-in protection and straightens the hair. The Therapeutic Crème, Moisturizing Lotion, and Sheen Spray can add shine, moisture to dry hair, and protection from the elements. Also, Olive Oil provides a detangling conditioning shampoo that will cleanse the hair and a Replenishing Pak that will add nutrients and vitamins to the hair. At your convience you can find Olive Oil at your nearest beauty supply store.
The second advertisement KeraCare, talks about how much you "CARE" about your hair, but does not explain why should I "CARE" about using their product and how KeraCare can protect and strengthen my hair? KeraCare does not explain in details what their products can do if I chose to use their product on my hair. In order to buy KeraCare products I would have to visit the nearest hair salon or call their 1-800-number. Rivers, Page #2

You should want the best for your hair and taking risk on a hair care product that can not explain how it can make your hair healthy by adding shine and

    Because of this, the condition of the scalp can eventually deteriorate to the point where it hardens (fibrosis) or hair follicles become miniaturized. In the case of fibrosis, hair is unable to grow through the hardened scalp. Miniaturization renders the hair follicles unable to perform their normal growth cycle. Both conditions can lead to a cessation of hair production and death of hair follicles.…

    Therefore, having any type of damage or chemicals involved with your hair can lead to stages such as transitioning and a big chop. Although, if you have not encountered such damage then stages such as protective styling, having two diverse textures and identifying hair texture can occur. Natural hair can come across different phases because of the stages that will take place. Many complications come along each stage especially when you’re new to the stage and you have to learn how to adapt. For instance in “Curly Hair Guide: What’s Your Curl Pattern”, it explains that it is possible that your hair won’t turn out like others because you might have a different hair type and this can lead you to the stage of trying to figure out what type hair you have (pg.1 para.1).…

    Curly Hair

    In addition to the fact that there are multiple wave patterns, there are several different hair strand textures. The different textures are fine, medium, and coarse. You can easily tell what type of texture your hair is if you compare a strand of it to a piece of thread. If your hair is thinner than the thread, you have fine hair. If your hair is the same size as the thread, it’s medium. If your hair is thicker than the thread, you have coarse hair. With each strand type there are benefits and disadvantages. Fine hair has the least amount of protein, doesn’t hold curl well, and is prone to breakage and dryness. The advantages of fine hair are that its easier to straighten, less product is needed, and its more flexible. Medium hair has more protein than fine hair yet less than coarse. It also is more pliable than coarse, but not as pliable as fine. Coarse hair holds curl well and is less…

    Having extremely curly hair is very hard to manage. Most women turn to straightening or putting a perm in their hair so that it is easier for them to manage: “For a long time I struggled to make my hair straight because I could never find a product that I liked enough to leave it curly…” (“Maryann”). Not only does this quote show how women struggle with their curly hair, but it shows how hard it is to find a hair product that “works”. This means that the product gives your hair volume, keeps your curls defined and keeps your frizz under control. Not only does this product have to “work”, it has to be affordable. You have to get your money’s worth. Also no sticky residue should be left on your hand or hair and no build up should be left behind. TREsemme Flawless Curls European Curl Enhancing Mousse, Suave Maximum Hold Gel, Sunsilk Captivating Curls Scrunching Mousse and L’Oreal Tightly Wound Curl Boosting Spray Gel all “work”, are affordable. You get your money’s worth and you are not left with a sticky residue, but the fact that no build up is left after using Sunsilk Captivating Curls Scrunching Mousse is what makes it the best choice to use on curly hair.…
