Life without hair care

[vanillabean]

What would you do if there were no hair products? how would you maintain your hair? what ideas would you come up with to have the look you want?

just some thoughts I wanted to share thanks.

Good question!

I would keep it in braids/ cornrows and probably wear a hairwrap most of the time.

 

[ananas]

i'd wear it in one, and use castor oil, aloe and honey (i always knew about the castor oil and aloe, but only just got hipped to the honey)to keep the moisture.

 

[alliyah4eva203]

i would have it in two french braids. and use thing like honey, shea butter and natural oils for upkeep

 

[Poohbear]

I would probably where an afro like they did back in the day and just wash it with water whenever it gets dirty

 

[Erica78]

I don't know what I would do! My head is too big to wear a fro...I would look scary...so I guess I would braid it up like Aaliyah...and use my trusty coconut oil.

 

[NAY007]

I would wear my hair in either one or two braids all the time and use only water and oils I guess...

 

[chocolate01]

I would still wear my hair in braid outs or bantu knot set and use natural oils as my moisturizer..they will always exist

I would be afraid...very afraid.

Lol hairlove, I would wash it with plain water, use natural oils (coconut,olive,castor etc...), aloe vera oil, and wear a big afro puff ponytail all the time like I did when I was little in my pre-relaxer days.

I'd use natural oils like essential oils and olive oil. I'd wear the same protective styles as now, probably keeping my hair braided (my own braids) more though. I'd still wash my hair often and keep it moisturized.

It would be like the old days and their hair looked good too.

yup natural oils and butters.....but i would die(or my hair would be a hot mess) without my conditioners though

 

[HairFanatic01]

I would surely say this:
1) cornrows to protect my hair (as I'm doing now)
2) my products would be the fruits and vegetables of the earth such as mango, oranges, etc.
3) Natural oils to maintain moisture

With these three ideas I believe that I would still reach my hair goals.

 

[Purtygurly]

I would make my own shampoos, conditioners and leave-ins.

There's no such thing as hair products when I'm around!

 

[Champagne_Wishes]

I would be the baddest kitchen chemist sround

!!!

 

[godzooki]

Lots and lots of water, natural oils, butters, braidouts, braids, and buns. I'd get nature smart in a hurry and concoct my own shampoos and condtioners and a good hairdress/moisturizer. We all seem to have the right idea!

My grandmother lived in a little town with no electricity or running water. She always had hair down her waist. All I remember her doing is washing her hair with soap and combing with Castor oil. When she started going gray, she used henna. She always had her hair in a ponitail or in 2 braids.
