Ok I just left my girlfriend's home and a very comical discussion. She left corporate America making a large salary, great bonuses and professional title to work for herself to become an independent hair stylist. I admire her for pursuing her real dreams and true talents.
Anywho - today she told me she did not realize how nasty women were until she began doing hair. She said she can tell if a woman had sex, smoked, worked out, sweated or whatever just by washing her hair because the hair will give off a foul odor. She said most women do not even realize their hair smells that bad but it does. Here are some tips she gave and I thought I would share:
1. Wash your hair once a week or don't go no MORE than 2 weeks without washing it. The hair goes where your face goes and you would not imagine not washing your face for that length of time.
2. Stop using conditioner as shampoo. It isn't shampoo, will cause buildup in your hair over time and if it has protein in it, will harden it to the point it snaps.
3. Your hair gives off a foul odor if it hasn't been washed in a while - stop being lazy, use that shampoo, lather up at least twice and use a deep conditioner with a plastic cap and let it sit so it can penetrate.
4. Whether natural or relaxed, trim your ends every 6 to 8 weeks. Keep those ends healthy so split ends don't run rampant in your head of hair.
5. If possible, rest from the relaxers. All those chemicals as you get older do not bode well especially if you begin to take blood pressure or thyroid medicatioin which thins your hair.
That's it for now.....but she could not stress enuff, wash your hair like you would wash your behind! Stop being lazy ladies...your hair is funky! Can you say skunk hair?

Too funny!
Yes, they do. Growing up, I had a few friends whose mother's subscribed to that. They didn't wash their hair for several weeks. One that I'm thinking of right now had a jherri curl and that mess STANK!!
