I have natural hair, so when i accidentally  stumbled on the Natural Nigerian Facebook page i was so exited. Life as a naturalista can sometimes be hard, especially in Nigeria where there is a serious scarcity of hair products for the natural Nigerian, hair salons for naturals don't exist at all (i think).


I went to one of their events , 'naturals in the city' (NITC) , it was a pleasant experience, there were ladies with all types of natural hair, it was a beautiful sight. NN (who has refused to tell me her real name) has all sorts of useful info on her website and Facebook page,

Hair care

Your hair is your crowning glory.

Stop hiding it under weaves or braids!

There are lots of things you can do to give it sheen and bounce. Nourish your natural hair and you would see the results in no time. Find the best products for your hair type.

For chemically treated hair its even more important to put a healthcare regime in place. It could be natural or organic products. Not everyone should relax their hair, sometimes texturizing it would be just fine. Its also wise to visit a good hairdresser.

Basic rules for all hair types;

1. Shampoo and condition you hair at least once a week.
2. Invest in the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type.
3. Moisturize with hair oils, creams and moisturizers.
4. Try to minimize the addition of chemicals such as relaxers and color.
5. Go easy on the braids! It breaks your hair mercilessly.

6. Deep condition with cholesterol or hair mayonnaise at least twice a month.

7. Do not comb or brush wet hair. It would break the ends.
8. Allow your hair breathe periodically. Don't fix or braid or anything.
9. lastly, love your hair and you would see it thrive.
