Expert teaches tricks to keep hair healthy and beautiful on a daily basis
Big Brother Brasil is a program that usually launches fashion and beauty trends among the public. In the 23rd edition of the reality show, it is no different. With a record number of black participants, some viewers began to wonder about the necessary care for curly and curly hair, since, there, the offer of products and the time to take care of the hair is limited.
With that in mind, we talked to Zica Assis, founding partner of the Instituto Beleza Natural and a specialist in curly and curly hair, to understand what would be the best way to brothers and the sisters take care of their hair during confinement. Look!
braids
Tina, Marvilla and Sarah Aline entered the house wearing braids, but, almost a month into the program, the first two participants have already taken their hair off. extension and they will have to focus on nutrition. This is because pre- and post-braids care must be intensified for the three sisters.
Because they are very dry, due to the fact that the use of braids does not allow the oiliness to be distributed evenly over the length and ends, the hair with the extension needs a good wetting with oil. Preferably, it should be done on the day the braids are removed, before washing.
Another indispensable measure is the replacement of keratin, which is also important for maintaining a healthy thread. However, if possible, the recommendation is to adopt the capillary schedule (hydration, nutrition and reconstruction) right after removing the braids, because this care routine will ensure that the hair receives all the necessary nutrients.
loops
Another ally, for several editions, of the reality participants is lace. Camilla de Lucas, for example, when she took her braids out, on BBB 21, she became famous for her beautiful smooth laces, curly and long. In this edition, the use of wigs has even led to a discussion between Tina and Cesar Black.
The use of laces can be a support at the time of transition, especially for people who are not ready to go through the big chop (big cut). In addition to being a style accessory and change of look, it can also help protect hair against external aggressions, such as sun, pollution and wind.
For the correct use of this accessory, it is important to pay attention to natural hair care, especially during the transition. Therefore, it is essential to keep up to date with the scalp hygiene and treatment routine from length to ends, as this ensures that the hair remains strong and healthy.
Precautions before placing the lace
Before putting on your lace, make sure your hair is completely dry, as holding it wet can cause break of wires, among other problems. A good tip is also, in the intervals between one lace and another, to do a capillary wetting. If the person makes a nagô braid before putting the lace, as is the case with the BBB 23 girls, it is necessary to be careful not to tighten the braids too much, so that the thread does not break.
Frizzy hair
It’s amazing to be able to see, on open television, in prime time, all the possibilities for curly and curly hair, from coloring, as is the case with Aline, to texturing, as with Domitila. In Aline’s case, her hair is curly, which already makes the strand naturally more fragile, which is why attention must be redoubled when using a color. It is also important to keep the capillary schedule up to date, in order to ensure the health of the strands and color maintenance.
In addition, bleached hair needs extra care, because all the hair’s pigment is removed during the process. bleaching process. In order to keep this structure healthy, you need to take good care of your hair before and after bleaching, invest in hair reconstruction products with keratin replacement and finish with vegetable oil.
