Enhance Your Waves with Natural Products

Looking for natural products may seem more difficult than you think. We wanted to cover natural products that can greatly benefit you on your waving journey.


There are three products that you should have at your disposal which are 1. Pomade, 2. Moisturizer, and 3. Natural Oils. These three products will ensure that you have is moisturized, healthy, and laid to perfection. In terms of which item you should apply first that would be the moisturizer. Moisturizers are water-based creams that help you maintain moisture in your hair when it begins to dry out. You should use a moisturizer two to three times a week especially in between washing your hair.


Before you apply moisturizer ensure that you comb out your hair. After combing you can now apply your moisturizer to damp or dry hair. Brush hair into your desired style then add your natural pomade on top of it to seal in the moisture. It may sound like overkill but in reality type 4 hair dries out quicker than any other type. After adding in your natural pomade brush into final styling and apply your durag. In the next morning or after letting your hair set you can add a natural oil such as coconut oil, avocado oil, or tea tree oil to enhance the shine. This also adds another barrier to outside elements.

Assessing your hair type is an important step in understanding its unique characteristics and determining the most suitable hair care routine. Here's a simple guide to help you assess your hair type: 1. Texture: Fine Hair: Fine hair strands are thin and delicate. They can be difficult to see or feel when rolled between your fingertips. Medium Hair: Medium hair strands are neither too thick nor too thin. They are typically easy to see and feel when rolled between your fingertips. Coarse Hair: Coarse hair strands are thick and sturdy. They are easily visible and may feel rough or wiry when rolled between your fingertips. 2. Density: Low Density: If you can easily see your scalp even when your hair is not parted, you likely have low-density hair. It may appear thin or sparse. Medium Density: If your scalp is somewhat visible when your hair is parted but not overly so, you likely have medium-density hair. It has a moderate amount of hair strands. High Density: If your scalp is barely visible even when your hair is parted, you likely have high-density hair. It appears thick and full. 3. Porosity: Low Porosity: If your hair takes a long time to wet and water beads up on the surface rather than being absorbed, you likely have low porosity hair. It may also be resistant to hair products. Medium Porosity: If your hair readily absorbs water and retains moisture well without feeling overly dry or greasy, you likely have medium porosity hair. It is considered the ideal balance. High Porosity: If your hair quickly absorbs water and feels dry or frizzy shortly after washing, you likely have high porosity hair. It may also be prone to breakage and split ends. 4. Elasticity: Low Elasticity: If your hair stretches a little before breaking and does not return to its original length, you likely have low elasticity hair. It may feel stiff and prone to breakage. Medium Elasticity: If your hair stretches and returns to its original length without breaking, you likely have medium elasticity hair. It has a healthy level of flexibility. High Elasticity: If your hair stretches significantly before breaking and feels overly stretchy or gummy, you likely have high elasticity hair. It may be prone to excessive stretching and breakage. By considering these factors—texture, density, porosity, and elasticity—you can gain valuable insights into your hair type and tailor your hair care routine accordingly. Remember that your hair may exhibit characteristics of more than one type, so it's essential to observe how your hair behaves in various situations to determine its unique needs.
