Extension braids are making a comeback and certainly on trend for this summer!
Braids can be great protective styles; they can be worn in a variety of styles without manipulating your own hair. Although your own hair is not exposed, it still needs to be cared for while wearing extensions.

When wearing extension styles you still need a hair care regimen as your hair and scalp still need to be kept clean and well moisturized. Extension hair tends to rob your hair strands of moisture, it is imperative to keep your hair/scalp moisturized.

Here’s how:

• Scalp Renew

apply directly to scalp prior to shampooing your braids, this will exfoliate and ensure your scalp is clean.

• Hydrating Invigorating Shampoo SLS Free

Dilute one cap full of shampoo in a spray bottle filled with water, spray onto scalp and braids to clean.

• Revitalizing Leave-In Conditioner

Mist hair daily for hydration.

• Scalp Nourishing Serum

Massage into scalp every other day to combat dryness and maintain a healthy scalp.

• Nourish & Shine

Use daily as finisher to add shine to braids.

Make sure to be gentle when washing your braids as too much tugging can cause hair to break or snap.

“Know your worth, understand your value.”

The value you place on yourself and what you think about yourself. The journey to true worth starts within, it’s life’s biggest journey!

Settling for less than you deserve, chasing love that isn’t yours, being afraid to speak authentically and being overly concerned with your partner’s thoughts of you are all signs of not knowing your worth.
Knowing your worth is a gradual process that only happens with awareness and conscious change. The most important person that matters….is you! You are the one who determines your self worth, practice makes perfect. Start with these:

1. Have high quality thoughts – your behavior reflects your thoughts

1. Love yourself completely – treat yourself with kindness, respect and love; kindness begets kindness, respect creates respect and love brings about love

Evaluate. Make changes. Improve. Be.

Wrap & Roll is a wonderful, light foaming wrap. It dries soft and clean without leaving any residue and is great for dry, color-treated, or damaged hair. Perfect for daily use, it’s great for setting, wrapping or twist-outs.

Wrap & Roll leaves your hair soft and shiny and tames those wearisome fly-aways.

Vidal Sassoon has died at the age of 84 after suffering from leukemia on May 9, 2012.

An icon of the hair industry, Sassoon led an incredible life. As a child, the British native spent several years in a London orphanage after his father left and his mother couldn’t afford to take care of him. Later, his mother apprenticed him to a local barber to fulfill her dream of her son working in a barber shop.

Those humble beginnings led to the nearly unrivaled career of a man who created the classic bob hairstyle during the 1960s, a very popular line of hair care products, a range of hair care tools and a chain of chic salons. Sassoon made styling hair an art form

We also cannot forget his hair care product ads from the ’80s which gave us the classic slogan, “If you don’t look good, we don’t look good.”

RIP to a legend!
