Greetings!!! I am often asked the question, "How do I maintain my hairstyles while working out?" Well, here are a few options: lengthen your workout but lower your intensity. For example: If you are use to going hard in the gym, (i.e. 30 minute runs) try a 60 minute power walk to avoid drenching your head with sweat. Another option for more extensive workouts are the DriSweat Women's Active Wear Headband. This band absorbs sweat, which helps to prevent "puffy edges". You can find this headband at your local Target or Wal-Mart stores. . Have a great day and workout my regal ladies!!!

Regal Hair Requires Regal Maintenance!!! Medium- Long Length Pt. 1

There is absolutely nothing worse than going to the salon and receiving a fierce and fabulous hairstyle, only to wake up the next morning not looking as glamourous as you did when you left your stylist. Well ladies....here are a couple of home maintenance recommendations that may help keep you looking ohhh sooo regal in between your salon visits!!!

~Press/Blow Out/ Flat Iron: When getting these type of styles, you want to make sure that your hair remains full of body, not limp and lifeless! Be sure to wrap your hair at night with a satin/silk scarf using a wide tooth comb. SN: Lots of people use bristle brushes because it's "easier" to wrap the hair with versus a comb. However, brushes have the tendency to make the hair flatten out quicker and lose the body and bounce. Now here's the BIGGIE, if you are one of those regal ladies who like LOTS OF HAIR BODY, here is an added bonus for you!! Use the extra large satin sponge rollers to roll your hair with at night. The next morning, take the rollers out and wrap your hair before you shower and get ready for your day (be sure to wrap your hair nice and smooth to remove roller creases). Once you have finished getting ready for your day, unwrap your hair and witness how those satin rollers infuse LOTS of HAIR BODY into your style.

~Roller Set/Body/Barrel Curls: Besides rolling your hair with the magnetic or satin sponge hair rollers to maintain curls, pin curling your is an alternative to maintaining those lushes curls. The key thing about pin curls is that you determine how loose or tight you want your curl to be by whatever size pin curl you role ;-)))). Keep in mind when pin curling that you must form a nice round curl using accurate finger placement in a circular motion; pin the curl to the scalp using an open end hair pin or bobby pin to ensure that your curls are bouncing, behaving and beautiful once you remove the pins.

It's a Natural Hair Must Ladies!!

So what's the secret to having healthy natural hair??

I guess you have noticed by now that many women have made the decision to transition from chemically relaxed hair to wearing their natural tresses. Being natural for nearly 7 years, I'm asked many natural hair care questions ranging from: "How do I keep my hair from getting dry?" to "What are the best products to use on my hair?" Well, the first thing  to keep in mind is that natural hair can be extremely dehydrated and the best way to hydrate the hair is through proper conditioning. Moisturizing and hydrating conditioners are a natural girl's best friend! Remember, healthy hair begins with the right foundation, which is definitely found in the right conditioners. Here are some of my favorites and I hope they work for you just as much as they work for me!!! ~Regal Ladies have Regal Hair~
