Positive thinking and hard work are THE critical links to self improvement. Growth, happiness, and joy is the direct result of working hard and viewing life ‘positively’.

Positive thinking can transform your life and allow you to do great things. Everyone and everything benefits from this change in you - your step lightens, your smile brightens, and your spirit generous. You find the joy in your life and share it with those around you.

How? Incorporate the following positive affirmations into your daily routine:

• I deserve all the good things that come to me
• I deserve to be happy
• I deserve abundance
• I deserve love
• I deserve prosperity
• I deserve good health
• I deserve to enjoy life at its fullest

• I deserve to be appreciated
• I deserve to be respected
• I deserve to achieve my goals

Happy Positive Thinking Day!

Regardless of your hair type or texture, the hair care products you use can make a difference. We recommend using only natural hair care products that are high in natural oils and butters and vitamins.

Every hair type needs fatty acids and natural oils to stay moisturized and synthetic products simply don’t provide the nutrients necessary to keep your hair and scalp healthy.

Using natural hair care products compounded with natural oils and butters is the best thing you can do for your hair and scalp, especially if you have dry coarse natural hair. Look for paraben-free products that have amino acids and natural oils like jojoba, olive, lemon, lavender, safflower, sunflower, wheat proteins, as well as vitamins A, D, E.

These natural shampoos and natural conditioners may cost a bit more than synthetics but you’ll see and feel the difference in your hair. Not only will your hair look terrific, you’ll be able to toss out all of those bottles and jars of partially used products and reclaim some real estate in the bathroom. No longer in search of the ‘perfect’ hair care product – you’ll know what to look for and won’t settle for less!

African-American and biracial curly natural hair requires extra attention to maintain its beauty. I know I say this all the time but here I go again…M-O-I-S-T-U-R-E is key! Dry hair lacks elasticity; causing hair to be brittle, hard, and frizzy. Hydrating the hair is the best thing you can do to keep it strong, healthy, and shiny while preventing breakage.

Using a daily moisturizer, such as Hair Nourishing Cream in his or her hair care regimen will also soften curls and ease combabilty!

Many young African American and biracial children dread getting their hair styled, some run for cover to avoid getting it done. The fact that they are running is a clear indication that the way their hair is being “done” is painful, making the process stressful for all involved when it doesn’t have to be.

They key to making the process less painful for your little one and preventing breakage is MOISTURE. I know we’ve discussed this before but I want to remind you that moisture means water, not oil!

1. Shampoo, condition, and rinse making sure that hair is left damp.
2. Spray and saturate the hair with Revitalizing Leave-In Conditioner.
3. Use dime-sized amount of Hair Nourishing Cream, working into hair from root to tip.
4. Part hair into 4-6 sections and secure with snag-free ponytail holders.
5. One section at a time, hold hair at the roots and begin combing thru the ends with a wide tooth comb. After the ends are tangle-free, release your hold and comb from root to tip.
6. Repeat until all sections/the entire head is done.

Voila, untangled hair with no tears!

Love THEIR Hair,
