Anyone can download her new e-book, When Good Hair Goes Bad, and it's full of natural hair tips and tricks like the ones below.
Learn how to detangle in just 30 minutes.
As busy wife and mom, Nikki came up with a quick and effective detangle method:
Step 1: Finger detangle with coconut oil before hopping into the shower.
Step 2: Wet your hair in the shower, and smooth in A LOT of conditioner.
Step 3: Run the shower stream over your head to help activate the conditioner's slip factor, and gently finger detangle more to remove knots. Follow up with a detangle brush for more stubborn spots.
She also lists some other common alternative household items—like full fat greek yogurt and aloe vera—that can help in the detangling process.
Prevent AND restore thinning edges.
Nikki breaks down a number of reasons for damaged edges, including too-tight styles, edge gels, hormonal imbalances, hydral fatigue (basically when you wash and/or moisturize your hair too much), and even wearing certain satin bonnets. She explains each one, and then offers some ways to heal your hairline, like castor oil massages and cardio exercise. The expert reveals that weekly castor oil massages on your hairline can stimulate growth over time, and pumping up your heart rate will increase blood flow to your head, which promotes hair growth. Who knew?!
