WHAT IS UNDER THAT WIG?




Everywhere you turn these days you find all kinds of wigs being displayed. A lot of ladies are now embracing the use if these pieces for convenience and of course due to the fact that it is fashionable and flexible in the since that you are at liberty to change into any style you want at any point in time.

Wigs are supposed to be won on healthy hair, but sadly, many women tend to cover their hair problems with wigs.

When most women notice an unhealthy hair condition, the usual thing is to self medicate. Every one around them suddenly becomes a hair doctor. The worst is if the salon they decide to go to is not being operated by a professional hair stylist, when a quark handles an already bad hair the situation could get worse and can even lead to very serious hair loss. This is why every salon owner needs to sign up  to get adequate training so as to be prepared, or adequately equipped for times like these.

Then comes product junking from home remedies to chemicals and even some natural products. They dump all on the hair hoping one would work. Really?
It is really sad that people have this misconception about hair problems, the believe that applying something is the solution and that puts us on the frenzy of looking for magic portions.
Product application is not always a solution especially when your problems are any of what is listed here; you can learn more about hair products, hair growth and why some hair products won’t work on How to buy the right products for your afro hair

Sometimes what you see might be indicators that you need to treat or deal with something internal, it may be your body trying to recover on its own after going through trauma or your hair telling you that you have done too much or too little with manipulation/care.

 Sometimes, breastfeeding mothers could experience hair loss and that may need professional attention for proper advice instead of resorting to careless substance application.
The list is endless and all of the aforementioned have different diagnosis, treatments and procedures.

CAN BLOW DRYING DAMAGE THE HAIR? - FACTS YOU NEED TO KNOW

Image
  This has always been a controversial topic especially for people with virgin hair that have a no-heat policy because of "thermal damage"  who have recently realized that they still need to use a blow dryer every now and again. Their fears are founded but the fact that they may have missed is that blow dryers DO NOT cause damage but the person behind the dryer. Blow dryers are like guns; in the hands of a professional it delivers maximum results, but the opposite is the case in the hands of an amateur. Here are some questions that we should be able to answer if we must use blow dryers as stylists. How are you supposed to hold a blow dryer? What angle do you point it away or on the client? Where do you apply the heat? How do you use the regulator? (using the cool and hot air to achieve the perfect finish?) What is the ratio of cool to hot air when blow drying?

Starting a Salon business whether it be barbering, spa, nail, weavon, makeup or Hair is always a venture most people are not prepared for psychologically. I don't know how we got to the point of assuming its a no-brainer. A mistake I also made 13 years ago. You see when you have an 8 (or 7 in the case of bankers or some parastatals) to -6 job , have a passion or just a stay at home mum who wants to start a business; The need for a backup plan or extra income makes us look for businesses that appear to be low risk and can be managed with little supervision or no experience. As much as this is the right step, we have erroneously put Salon business as such and this has led to the frustration and closing of many businesses in the industry. Here are the 9 ways to running a successful Salon business. 1. A salon business is first a "business" . So, it requires more than getting a space, furnishing and buying equipment. You have to first remove that idea from ...
