4 SUPERFOODS THAT WILL HYDRATE YOUR HAIR FROM THE INSIDE OUT!


Happy New Year Guys!

It has been a minute since my last blog post. A LONGGGGG MINUTE! Running Hydratherma Naturals has really been keeping me busy!

As most of you guys know, the goal of the Hydratherma Naturals product line is to balance the moisture and protein levels in the hair and this balance leads to less breakage and length retention. Increasing the moisture levels in kinky and curly hair textures can be a challenge and that is why we created our flagship product 12 years ago-> The Hydratherma Naturals Daily Moisturizing GrowthLotion Moisturizer.
This product has been our best seller for the last 12 years because it does such an amazing job at hydrating the hair and keeping it moisturized. Our customers absolutely love it!


As we all know, a combination of internal and external influences lead to healthy hair. Will high quality moisturizers help retain moisture retention? ABSOLUTELY! We also know that what you put into your body matters when it comes to retaining moisture in your hair.

Here are 4 superfoods that will hydrate your hair from the inside out.

Boost your Vitamin B, Vitamin A, Collagen, Omega 3 Fatty Acids and other vitamins and minerals with these superfoods!



1. COCONUT OIL
Honestly, is there anything that coconut oil can’t do? Coconut oil contains medium-chain fatty acids and just one tablespoon per day is all that you need. When ingested, these fatty acids will help to increase sebum production which aids in keeping your hair moisturized.  Coconut oil is a must in your cooking routine. Not only can this oil hold up in high heat, but it’s a great alternative to traditional cooking oils.

2. CHIA SEEDS
Oh Yesssssss! Who loves Chia seeds? They are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids which are a must for moisturized strands. Chia seeds are not only filled with Omega-3s, but they also include powerful vitamins and minerals such as phosphorous, calcium and protein, which all encourage moisture retention. Plus, these seeds couldn’t be easier to add into your diet. Just sprinkle a spoonful into your morning glass of milk or breakfast smoothie and stir to mix.

3. LEMON
The next time you’re looking to spice up your beverage, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon into the mix. Lemons have a very high concentration of vitamin C, which helps to build collagen. This collagen production is vital in helping your hair to grow as well as helping your body to absorb iron, which strengthens the hair shaft which enables your hair to retain moisture.

4. GREEN TEA
No more dehydrated hair strands with the help of green tea! A cup of green tea may be just what you need. Green tea contains vitamin A, which can help to stimulate sebum production (your body’s natural oils). By adding green tea to your diet, you can help to hydrate your hair and scalp.  

BONUS!!!!
Well… it is technically not a “superfood” but I thought that I would add this nutrient rich vitamin to the list because it contains all of the vitamins and minerals that your body needs to growth healthy and strong hair.


Not your average hair vitamin! PROVIDES ALL OF THE NECESSARY VITAMINS, MINERALS, HERBS AND EXTRACTS THAT YOUR BODY NEEDS FOR HAIR GROWTH - ESSENTIAL VITAMINS FOR HAIR, SKIN & NAILS -Hair Growth Plus not only support fast hair growth but this hair supplement also supports healthy skin and nails. Contains 5000mcg of Biotin. More than most other brands. Also enriched with MSM, Keratin, Collagen, Silica, Hyaluronic Acid, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Grape Seed Extract, Fo-ti Root Powder, Golgi Berry Extract and many other natural herbs, minerals and vitamins for faster hair growth.

5 Natural Hair Myths!

 
                                                          5 Natural Hair Myths

Hey guys!!!!!
I know that it has been a really long time since my last blog post. Now that we are approaching the fall season, I wanted to talk about some topics that will really help you avoid damaging your hair without even realizing it.
There are a lot natural hair tips that are spreading like wildfire online.  Many instructional videos and articles may have good intentions but can really be misleading. Some online tips can actually cause a person to damage their hair in the long run.
Here are the top 5 natural hair myths that have been circulating online.

1.      You cannot possibly moisturize your hair too much because natural hair needs all of the moisture that it can get... right?
WRONG. Your natural hair does need extra moisture but it is definitely possible to over-moisturize your hair. If you constantly add moisture without balancing your moisture levels with protein, your hair will eventually get too soft. It will feel like soft cotton when wet. When the hair is in this state, it will eventually break off because it is holding too much moisture.
To add the proper amount of moisture, start by moisturizing once a day and then increase to 2 times a day if necessary. If your hair feels too moisturized, decrease to every other day.

Product recommendation: 

                                     HydrathermaNaturals Daily Moisturizing Growth Lotion


2.      You don’t have to comb your hair. Detangling your hair is enough. This will prevent breakage from occurring.
FALSE.  I have seen many YouTube videos instructing people to detangle their natural hair in the shower and to only finger comb to avoid breakage. This is far from the truth. I do believe in detangling natural hair in the shower while saturated with deep conditioner. I also believe that a person should actually comb their hair (with a very large tooth comb) to remove the hair that has shed. If you don’t remove the shed hair, it will cause major tangles and breakage in the long run. Hair tends to shed between 70-100 strands a day and this shed hair needs to be removed to avoid major issues later.

3.      You don’t need protein ever. Why would I? I’m natural.
FALSE. I probably see this one the most. Just remember that your hair is made of protein and over time as the hair strand gets older, it becomes more porous along the hair ends. Porous hair tends to break because it is weaker. This is one of the reasons why older hair breaks on the end. Protein is needed to fill in the porous gaps and strengthen the hair.

Product recommendation- 


                           Hydratherma Naturals Protein Balance Leave In Conditioner 

4.      You must stay away from shampoo and cowash only so that your hair will not dry out.
FALSE. While I definitely believe in cowashing, I believe that it should only be done in between shampoo sessions. Conditioners will not adequately clean the hair.   With a buildup of conditioner on the hair, it will prevent moisture from entering the strand. The buildup must be removed so that moisture can adequately enter each hair strand when you moisturize.
5
  .     You can color your hair without damage.
FALSE.  Since your hair is 100% natural is can withstand more abuse however, coloring your natural can still cause damage if done incorrectly. Coloring the hair (or any chemical process) will increase porosity along the hair strand leading to breakage. Be sure to take extra care of your hair if it is colored and be sure to increase the use of protein in your regimen to prevent breakage.


 *Hope these hair tips will help you to avoid damage to your natural hair in the future!
