A lot of black women have receding hairline, for some it's inherited from their family while for most it's due to their bad hair habits, hair dying, tight braids, tiny braids, cornrows popularly called Ghana weaving, Lace wigs etc are dangerous to your hairline. I knew a girl, I always see her on weaves and never her natural hair, one day I bumped into her in a saloon and I finally see why she was always on weaves, her hair line was excessively damaged and badly receding, She was so shy she tried to hide, I wanted to advise her that it would grow back, but she told me it was hereditary( big ass lie), I have seen hereditary receding hairline and hers is obviously damaged because she continues to fix her weaves without letting her her rest and she doesn't take care of her hair, she has made up her mind that her hair is bad and it would remain bad.
Another friend of mine had her hairline damaged badly by Senegalese twists and Threading, my friend has fine hair and it was really bad, so for some time she stopped protective styling her hair and got a wig.
She would cornrow her hair and maintain the style for a week, everyday she would massage with Jamaican black castor oil, when she goes out she would put on the wig and in a month her hairline was already growing very fast, I personally was impressed, with time the edges had grown back fully.
So my advice for ladies with bad receding hairline,
1. Stop applying Chemicals like Relaxers, dyes and hair products with bad chemicals, it's not hard it's either these chemicals or good hair growth, it's not easy to have both.
2. Ditch protective styling for a while especially lace wigs (ditch that for good), and opt for a simpler hairstyle like cornrows or mini twist (not usually extensions) and massage with an oil of your choice (preferably Jbco, coconut oil, olive oil, peppermint oil or rosemary oil) for about 4-7 times a week, the massaging will stimulate hair growth and thickness.
3.Onion, garlic and Ginger in some countries are used on patients with Alopecia Arreta and it is highly effective, if you can stand the smell, then combine and blend them and apply them to your hair, do it twice in a week and you would be impressed ,if you can't stand the smell, then eat them, but don't overcook so as to preserve the nutrients in them
4.stop harmful hair practices like over manipulating your hair, constant flat ironing, constant use of hooded or hand dryers, constant bonding, over processing, constant dying , trust me your hair will strive better without the aforementioned.
5. Before you do any protective styling ensure you deep condition or protein treat your hair, it's tres tres important, most people with bad hair breakage don't treat their hair before and after protective styling to strengthen their hair, it's very easy and you don't have to go to a saloon, there are easy protein treatments and deep conditioning treatments you can make and apply to your hair for strength, softness and shine.
6 . You have to moisturise your hair as a whole. Moisture is very important, without moisture your hair would be dry and easily break off, you can spray water or use a moisturising conditioner and apply oil or butter after to seal in the moisture.
7. Protect your hair while you sleep use a satin bonnet or a satin pillow because cotton pillowcase will remove moisture from your hair and also cause breakage, if you can't find a satin bonnet or pillow case, go to your tailor and ask her to make one for
8. Eat well and take multivitamins that aid hair growth.
9. Ensure you pamper your edges And take extra care of it and it will surely grow
Ps If your edges grow back, don't destroy it again, instead maintain the health of your hair no matter what.
That all for now
Bye Guys
And see you next post
