Happy Fabulous Friday!!
I hope that you all are having a wonderful day thus far! Fresh Fridays is something that I will be doing from time to time answering questions from my readers that come fresh from the emails I receive. Enjoy!
Q: Will it hurt your hair to let your perm grow out and not cut it?
A: It won't hurt it if you pamper it. That's basically what I did. I let my hair grow for 12 months and then I cut off all of the perm. While I was transitioning, I trimmed my ends here and there. You have to make sure you keep your hair moisturized and sealed, meaning moisturize with a water based product and then seal that moisture in with a butter or an oil. Your hair thrives off of moisture so stay hydrated from the inside out. Protect your hair while you are asleep by donning a satin scarf or sleep on a satin pillow case.
Minimize the pulling and tugging on your hair because you have what's called a line of demarcation where the natural hair meets the relaxed hair. This is the weakest point on the hair shaft. You want to make sure that you pay attention to your ends as well and cut or trim the split ends. You don't want a split end traveling up the shaft of your hair and onto your natural hair. You will then have to cut your hair up to that point if you do.
Detangle your hair while it is wet and saturated with conditioner or a product that gives you a good amount of slip. Use a wide tooth comb to detangle and try detangling in sections. Frequent deep conditioning treatments along with the other tips above will help keep your hair healthy during and after your transition.
