Fashion Trending!: HeadScarves!!

8:05am (I've become accustomed to wake up really early and end up sneaking in naps here and there throughout the whole day)

Hey guys ! I've got a fashion trend for you :D it's actually been around for a while but I was inspired to only talk about it now because .. well i'm wearing one myself ! aha! so here we go~ I'm going to be talking about the different kinds of head scarves and ways to wear 'em!

Okay lets be honest, head scarves can be grouped into that pile of intimidate accessory items especially if it's something new for you. Head scarves come typically in a silk square shaped looking handkerchief however i do have a couple of head scarves that are rectangular- lol so there's that. Head scarves are usually smaller and short than your regular neck scarf- so if you're worried that you might pick up a neck scarf instead of a headscarf when your at the store just keep that in mind!

Alright so depending on the size of head scarf you will get (or maybe yo uahve one already) will most likely determine the style that you will create (big scarf=more fabric to work with. vice versa)
Let me tell you- there are soooo many ways to wear head scarves that it's unbelievable! i bet you 100% ever person that you see with a head scarf will always have something different. 

I think this is the most common look that i have seen on other individuals- which is the basic knot at the front. I think that head scarves are a great way to boost up your outfit and at the same time to hide that trollish bed head you have that you can't tame lol 

As i said, this is a common look that i think any one can do it and is very easy. 

Instructions:

1) Tie your hair in a bun or pontytail- whichever you prefer

2) grab your scarf and place it on the floor or on a flat surface

3) take one end of the scarf and meet it with the end diagonal from it

4) start folding the scarf in sections (3-4) until it looks like a strip 

or band 

(depending on your preference the band can be thick 

or thin, it's up to you)

5. At this point, you can grab either ends of the scarf and place it on your head so that the ends of the scarf is at the front of you face 

6. is this pretty much the easiest part- just tie a simple know at the front of your head

7. the little bunny ears hanging out can be simply tucked away or pinned back and- BAM! your done :D

I found this video a while ago talking more about head scarves and ways to wear them:

I hope you guys found this a little helpful!

Growing Out Long Healthy Hair!

Growing out your hair can be a long pain staking process especially if you've gotten the genes of slow ass growing hair (you not alone) There are many ways in which you can aid your roots and promote its growth rate ! 

A Thing to Remember ! 

Lets all be realistic here, we are all different therefore our hair is different as well- depending on the variety each and every one of us has different rates of growing out hair. Some people maybe able to grow twice the amount of hair than someone who can only grow out half the avg length per month. So it takes time and lots of it. 

Well then now on to some basic Tips ! 

Basic Tips

Patience

Holy i think by far this is the most hardest task out of all the other tips and words of advice to follow- i think i can represent the majority of women who suffer from slow growing hair that this is definitely the worst. Patience however is worth the wait. Try and do things that may distract you from having that itch to snip- set a goal for you self, or try and do different hair styles that will help yourself to not cut your hair ! 

Remove those Split Ends!

Just like your skin, your hair is like a reflection of your overall health of your body- if your hair is not given the proper care then it shows off in your appearance as a whole. Snip off those ends, don't try and convince yourself that it's not a big deal. It is ! Keeping those split ends while having the goal to grow out your hair will go in vain! By keeping those split ends, the conditions will only get worse and the split ends will elevate and go up higher in the shaft ... so in a way its sort of counter acting the grow of your hair So snip it ! If you don't want to change the length of your hair but still want to remove those ends ask the salonist for a Dusting to remove some of the ends but still maintain the length of the hair 

Usually people would say that you have to go every 6-8 weeks for a trim. But at the end of the day it depends on the rate at which your hair grows. there's no point in cutting it every 6 weeks if you hair doesn't even grow at the regular rate. "Only if you see signs of split ends, then trim" but if not then you can save money and skip the regular visits to the salon

Protect your Hair!

Your hair is very delicate and the environment can be very harsh on your hairs so ! Against the wind you would always want to keep it tied and not flying anywhere, this prevents it from drying up, and from breakage. Against the Heat, try and wear hats from time to time, or a protective spray so that your hair is not prone to dryness or breakage. Always try and use Cool or luke warm water when Taking a Shower- again prevents futurAe breakage, and fallouts.

When using Hot Iron Tools (which is not recommended) ALWAYS use a heat protectant you will thank it. 

What You Can Do To Promote Hair Growth!~

DIY Hot Oil Treatments

for me personally, I don't go out buying the Oil for the drug store or wherever.. i have oil at home? I can just do it myself. (please common sense.. if your doing a DIY .. no canola oil LOL)

Virgin Coconut Oil~ 

1. Simply heat up coconut oil, not to the point where it is boiling but warm enough to have a sort of liquidy consistency. 

Depending on the length of hair, how much coconut oil will vary.

*always concentrate on the ends first and then work you way up*

Coconut oil is a great way for deep conditioning the ends of severely damaged hair- allowing for restoration and smooth hair. It is always best to deep condition your hair once every week.

You can always opt for Hair Masks or even Olive Oil and mixing that with a little honey- heating it up a little and allowing that to sit for about 15-30min. This will also give similar results

Supplements

If you do no regularly take any supplements or vitamins- then you should! Once you realize that these vitamins promotes healthy growing hair then you will definately take these. Vitamins are taken in substitution for the nutrients that you do not often take throughout the day but are vital to your body and overall health

Your hair is again "a reflection of your overall health" ! 

Some supplements that you can take include:

Omega 3 Fish Oils

Silica Gels

Daily Multivitamins (Ex. Centrum)

**Always talk with a dietitian, doctor or consultant if the supplements or vitamins are right for you**

That is pretty much it !

I hope you enjoyed these tips !

Happy Growing, Cheers !
