Hair Tricks Everyone Should Know
I don’t know about you, but when I was younger, I spent way too much time wishing I had different hair and not enough time learning to actually handle my own. I have very thick, curly hair, which I spent about 15 years straightening. Every day. But eventually, I started to wear my hair natural, and when I did that, I learned a lot of useful hair tricks. So now I want to share with you some hair tricks that everyone should know. Whether your hair is thin or thick, straight, wavy or curly, you’ll find these tricks as valuable as I have.

Best Sea Salt Sprays for Curly Hair
Tousle-headed girls and women with waves need a stock of sea salt sprays for curly hair. Salty sprays add the body and texture that you usually only get after a day at the beach. Women with straight locks can use sea salt spray, as well. You won't magically achieve curly hair, of course, but sea sprays create shape and waves. Braid your damp hair first, then give it a spritz for the best results. Curly ladies only need to spray their tresses, damp or dry, or even after using hair masks for curly hair. You have to do one other thing, as well: make sure that you're using an excellent, efficient spray that will give you the beachy waves you crave.

8 Tips to Make Your Blowout Last Longer
I'll only blowout my hair for an event or if I'm going out the entire weekend because I want my hair to look its best. Who doesn't? The first day I blowout my hair, it always looks amazing. My hair looks fresh, shiny, and full of volume! However, when it comes to the following days, my hair slowly starts to look flatter and gets oiler and oiler. Since I have a lot of thin hair, my hair tends to get oily fast and I hate it.

“In the realm of ideas everything depends on enthusiasm... in the real world all rests on perseverance.” Johann Wolfgang could not have been more correct with his ideas on persistence, especially when it comes to straightening hair.

I Hate My Natural Hair
Back home, I had always put my hair on the back burner. I was raised on the devil's cream (relaxer), which uses harsh chemicals to permanently straighten hair. My mother was a high school teacher, university lecturer, and examiner all at the same time, so she barely had time to do her own hair, let alone mine. Relaxer left coarse hair soft and easy to manage. Ideal, right? WRONG! Relaxer burns. I grew up scratching scabs off my scalp because the relaxed hair was more convenient and deemed more beautiful. African parents did not confront their natural hair and made no effort to understand it. Unfortunately, this was passed on to their children.
