Natural Hair 101: How to survive a bad hair day


It's great to be natural but how do you survive a bad hair day? When you've washed a few days ago and have no protective style in? By now, your hair is getting compact, slightly tangled, dry and unmanageable. To top that, you're late for work and need to leave the house asap. Here's how to avoid the morning scream in four steps:

Moisturize - Jump in the shower with your hair out. It will have a steamer effect. Allowing the moisture in will make it easier to manage.

Seal in the moisture with oil - Once you get out of the shower, apply a small amount of coconut oil from the ends to the roots.

Style - Pull your hair in a bun and hold with a banana clip (do not don't pull too tight to protect your edges). Smooth down your edges with a soft brush or with your hands.

Set - Put a silk scarf on and leave it for at least 15 minutes and voilĂ ! Your edges will be smoothed and you are ready to go!
