How to take care of black hair to protect my health and wellbeing?

It’s a question that many black women, across the world, have long searched for an answer to.

Good hair health is especially important for black women, however, in recent history we have relied on science just to get our hair to a manageable state.

Just check fashion magazines over the years which shows you how black hair was represented:- long and straight, long and wavy etc.

Rarely would you see a natural afro!

The problem is that to achieve, for example, the long and straight “look” could be hazardous to your health and wellbeing.

We are now more aware of chemical relaxers and other such hair products, and their link to common conditions in Black Women such as Fibroids.

Fibroids are non-cancerous growths that grow in or around the womb (uterus)

Fibroids symptoms can be life changing and include abdominal pain, anaemia and, in the worst case, infertility.

So, it makes sense to only use black hair products that limit your chances of  fibroid growth and being dominated by fibroid symptoms
