I just got a sewn weave the beginning of September. I used Sensational bone straight yaki style and wanted to know how long should I keep the extensions in my hair.
Also I usually get my hair relaxed, but I am trying not to do it as often because I was told that your becomes very weak after repeated use of hair relaxers. Is it best to alternate between hair extensions and hair relaxers?
I have kinky type hair and it gets very dry. I am trying to look for ways to make my hair more manageable and healthy. Is this possible for my hair type? What products should I use for my hair?

hair weave
yes you should put grease on your head! So it wont get as dry! You should leave your weave on 1-3 months i would prefer taking it off like in a couple of days or weeks! If its missed up now take it out!

Depending on how well you take care of your weave, you should be able to keep it in for 6-8 weeks. If you feel like your weave needs to be refreshed, you can go to a stylist to have your weave tightened and washed/styled.
It is possible for your hair type to be manageable and healthy, but that depends on you, and how you take care of yourself and your hair. Start by eating healthily, drinking lots of water and getting some kind of exercise.
As far as your hair, wash and condition it once a week. Give yourself hot oil treatments and deep conditioning treatments- alternate these, with hot oil one week and deep conditioning the next week. Also use protein treatments either the week before or the week after you relax your hair. Your stylist may be able to do this for you for an extra $10-$20. Get your dead/split ends trimmed (about 1/8 of an inch) every time you get a relaxer. Use as little heat as possible because curling irons and blowdryers can be damaging if used too much. Use products that have no alcohol (or little alcohol) because it is drying. This means staying away from spritz and hairspray. Oil sheen is okay though. Stay away from mineral oil as much as possible because this clogs the pores in the scalp. Other than that, use whatever products work for you. Elasta QP, Dudleys, Keracare, Mizani, Cream of Nature, Motions and Paul Mitchell are good product lines, but you don’t have to limit yourself to these lines. These are just popular brands for African American hair.
You can alternate between relaxing and weaves. The weaves will give you a break from styling and manipulating your hair too much.
Hope this helps.

With regular maintenance you should be able to keep the weave in for six months. Providing that you get it washed and set regularly and your beautician tightens the tracks as needed. She will also relax your hair as needed. However you should take it out when you are ready and trust me you will know when it is time.
Nutrine Garlic Conditioner- Use the one in the jar it costs about $6.99. This will make your hair super soft. Two ways to use
1. Wash your hair yourself before you going to the beauty parlor and put this in your hair. cover with plastic cap. Reason being: I like to deep condition my hair for as long as possible
2. Let your beautician apply it in put you under the dryer for 15-20 minutes,

Weave 2-3 months with proper maintenance…wash it every 1-2 weeks, let your stylist do it if weave isnt dried properly it can mold. Yea is possible with your hair… Your hair needs lots of moisture…Check out these websites….
omg. please do not grease your scalp I can’t believe people are still saying that it’s archaic and inaccurate if you condition and wash hair regularly you will not need extra oils on your scalp. also weaves should stay in one to three months
do sew-in take your hair out & will it help your hair to grow
Just what exactly do you advise is the easiest blog software to make use of for a person with a rather limited education of technologies?
I wear my weaves for 3 to 3 1/2 months at a time and My hair has grown like weeds it’s almost bra strap length. I wash it once a week at home and i moisturize and seal about once or twice a week. You should AVOID GREASE!!!.. try essential oils or oils like Coconut, Extra virgin Olive Oil or even castor oil….i love that stuff and it also thickens your hair and softens up new growth, Hope that helps.

I’m doing a lot of study for a local college assignment and thought this infomation might be usefull. I will come back in the next couple of weeks and see what else has been added on the topic.Cheers
I’m really inspired along with your writing abilities as smartly as with the structure on your blog. Is that this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Anyway keep up the nice high quality writing, it is rare to see a great blog like this one nowadays..
Throughout this grand scheme of things you’ll receive an A+ with regard to effort. Exactly where you actually confused me ended up being in all the facts. You know, it is said, details make or break the argument.. And that couldn’t be more accurate at this point. Having said that, permit me tell you just what exactly did deliver the results. Your text is actually incredibly powerful which is most likely the reason why I am making an effort to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Secondly, although I can certainly notice a jumps in reasoning you make, I am not convinced of how you seem to unite your details which make your conclusion. For the moment I will yield to your issue but wish in the near future you actually connect the facts much better.
