8 Great Best-Kept Hair Secrets from the Experts

1. BAMBI MONTGOMERY, owner of Honeychild Salon and Spa
"Use a very ripe avocado as a preshampoo conditioning treatment. Massage onto your hair, leave in for an hour, shampoo and rinse. You will be surprised how shiny it will leave your hair."

2. OSCAR JAMES, celebrity hairstylist
"During touch-up time you can prevent overprocessing by applying conditioner to the relaxed portion of the hair, leaving the new growth untouched. The conditioner acts as a barrier inthe event that any of the relaxer comes into contact with the processed hair."

3. DERRICK SCURRY, stylist
"To soften even the most coarse or kinky hair, try Miss Jessie's Curly Buttercreme ($58, missjessies.com). It moisturizesd and makes hair silky in seconds."

4. CHRIS CRENSHAW, stylist
" "Never use plastic bristle brushes on relaxed hair. They can scratch and tear an already weak cuticle. Use a wide-tooth comb to maintain a healthier hair shaft."

5. CHUCK AMOS, celebrity stylist
"For the smoothest hairline, use a firm toothbrush. Small bristles ae perfect for handling flyaways. Add a touch of hair spray or gel before you brush."

6. EDRIS NICHOLLS, salon owner and stylist
"To style curly hair, try aloe vera gel. It provides a buffer against harsh, dry environmental elements. Add a few drops of olive, grapeseed or avocado oil to it, and you have a great leave-in conditioning treatment."

7. ROXANNA FLOYD, makeup artist
"I wore the same hairstyle for 14 years. Buying a cute wig was a way to experiment without cutting my hair. I get my wigs from katourlinewigs.com. Now I never have a bad hair day.

8. RODNEY BARNETT, certified trichologist
"There is a direct relationship between a flaky scalp and poor bowel elimination. Increase your fiber intake to correct this problem."
 
some of these...like the toothbrush/avocado is an OLDIEs and some of these are newbies...i just thought i'd share what i was reading...enjoy
 
Thanks for the info...I feel like I should check the recipe forum for something on that buttercreme. It sounds interesting all the way up to the $58 price tag. I'd better get a gallon of the stuff for $58 and it better work miracles. :lol:

:grin:

Sadly, you will not get a gallon - you'll get about 8 oz for that price. The baby buttercreme was not bad, although with a heavy hand it could be a bit greasy. I just have found other things that work just as well, with a lower price tag.
 
Danggone shame - all of these 'Best Kept Secrets' are old news here! :lachen: Ladies of LHCF, we got it going on!
 
man hair tips i actually agree with. hasnt happened in months. lol

16oz for that much...i think the 8oz one is 30 something bucks so it is more cost efficient (:look:) to get the bigger one. i just check the exchange forum.
 
I believe they all check in my book. I never tried the buttercreme although I said that I would when i first joined, but many ladies swear by it.

Great thread!
 
these are the type people that need to be workin in salons, instead the crazy ones who over process and use small tooth combs
 
This was the only new info for me.
