Today is the 1 year anniversary of Relaxed Hair Central. I am so happy to have made it a year with this blog. I love to write, and I found the best way to do it in a way that is easy for me. I love everyone who supports me with this, and everyone who reads our blog. We hope to make this an ongoing project so you can get only the best. ONE YEAR AND COUNTING!!!!

Hi everyone, I have a really great review for you. For about a month I've been using Henna and Placenta on my hair as a deep conditioning treatment. I buy it from a beauty supply store, and they come just like the picture shows. They are priced at $1 per pack. I've seen them at Wallgreens and CVS in a 6 pack for about $3. I've also seen it in a bottle for about $3. They have different types: Regular, Super Strength, and one with Olive Oil. 

Here's the process of which I use it. I go to my salon (the Dominican Salon) and I give the product to my stylist right before I sit for her to wash my hair. She applies shampoo to my hair TWICE. Then she puts it the Henna and Placenta into my hair, and I make sure that she applies it ALL OVER MY HAIR, because sometimes they rush and the product doesn't really incorporate into my hair. After that they pin up my hair with a butterfly clamp and put on a plastic cap over it. Then I get up from the shampoo bowl and I sit under a dryer or a steamer and the stylist puts the temperature to a high setting. I sit under the dryer for about 10 to 15 minutes. HINT: If you want the product to really get into your hair, you can tell your stylist to work on another persons hair until you need be, or you can just tell them that you want more time. Don't be afraid to tell them what you want, and expect from them; after all you're the one paying them. After you are finished with that you go back to the shampoo bowl and he or she rinses out the product. Then they use the normal conditioner on the hair, and then use a wide-tooth comb to make sure all the product has gotten into the hair. They rinse out the product and then they do whatever else.

Before I started to use this my hair was extremely damaged, and dry. I now use this every time I wash my hair and my hair has REALLY improved. It has improved greatly with the damage and split ends. My sister and I both use it, and my mother has noticed the difference with our hair. I really do recommend this to anyone who has damaged, dry hair. It really does help with those things. Please go get this product if you are so inclined, it really isn't expensive or hard to find. Thanks guys, and bye for now :)

Hey everyone. The summer went by so fast, and I cant believe I'm going back to school in a few weeks. This year my hair was really dry during the summer. It was a big problem, because my hair was so dry it started to fall out. So I decided that it was time to change my my hair regimen. I went our and bought new hair care products. I got the Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner

 I also got the  Nexxus Pro-Mend Shampoo and Conditioner. I alternated using these shampoos and conditioners every other week. For my Deep Conditioner I used Hask Placenta Henna and Placenta Deep Conditioner. And for leave-in I used the Nexxus Humectress Luxe Ultimate Leave-in Spray. These are a lot of products, and it wasnt cheap purchasing these products. I love these products. Nexxus is really stepping up with their hair care products. The Pro-Mend line is targeted to help mend and prevent Split Ends. My hair has really really really prospered from using these products. I'll review these products soon!                                                                           

Today was my graduation, I'm so proud of my self, and all of my achievements.

I was on "RHC's" Facebook page yesterday, and one of our followers wrote on our wall. Her name is Tatiana Grant and she gave us a great tip. She shared a link with us, and it was about caring for your relaxed hair during the summer months. During the summer our hair can have a mind of its own. So I would suggest putting hair in ponytails, and updos.  You would actually think that humidity can benefit the hair, however it can have quite the opposite reaction. Too much humidity can cause your relaxed hair to become brittle and break off. I suggest using some anti humidity products. Try Mizani’s Anti humidity products….One of my favorites: Thermasooth Shine Extend Anti Humidity Spritz..great 
for fighting off the frizzies.
So this summer take great care of your hair and make sure to look fabulous at the same time. Also i would love to give a big shout-out to Tatiana Grant for sending us that great link. I live to see readers send in suggestions and ideas so keep 'em coming!

So excited, we almost have 1000 page views on our blog http://relaxedhaircentral.blogspot.com/ Thank you guys for so much enthusiasm in our site, and we hope to continue our journey into helping people understand their hair and how to deal with lovely Relaxed Hair!
