Hair Tips - Tumblr Posts

[pixiv] [part 2]

I really wanna shave my head but I know my parents would NOT approve.

I literally washed and got my hair done less than 2 weeks ago and it’s already itchy and the roots are mad fuzzy. 😭

Anyone get any tips? It’ll mean a lot 😭

#black gurl hair problems 😄

When it comes to textured hair there’s many styles, here some I’ve seen at powwows. Braided locs have to be my favorite style so far 💖

(Edit)- i didn’t communicate this very well but this is a merging of cultures. Culturally/traditionally no we didn’t have cornrows/locs these are black hairstyles, and then mixed with our hairstyles because of the influence of Afro indigenous people (the two braids)💖 having two braids for some regalia is very important and so these are hairstyles I’ve seen Afro natives wear for powwows. Not saying two pigtails are just a native thing but cultural context is important

Reminder braids are not a universal hairstyle between tribes! I’m coming from the perspective of Great Plains tribes. I just thought I might share what braided hair means to my community and people. I see people trying to make ocs or redesigns of characters who are native but don’t actually represent us too good. Reminder to always research a tribe before making a character learn their protocols and at least try to learn something new! 🌸💖🍇

I just wanna say I love our hair! It means so much to us please take care of it🥺💖

If you’re going to dye your hair, be sure to read reviews both about the brand and specific colors. Some brands have certain colours that are not what they appear to be on promotional images.

Sooo I bleached my hair last night with my sister help and it didn't exactly turn out 😬 Most of it processed but the strands at the front of my hair along with my bangs did not and I just want to know if anyone has any advice for how to fix this? Do i just add more bleach? I don't want to destroy my hair this is my first time doing anything to it at all.
