Seal
Seal 1. A fish-eating aquatic mammal with a streamlined
body and feet developed as flippers, returning to land to breed or rest,
and chase Cape Cod vacationers down the beach
2. THE ACT
OF Locking moisture in the hair shaft, specifically the ends. For sealing to
be effective, you must first use a water-based moisturizer (a conditioner or
cream that has water as its first ingredient), and then seal with a butter or
oil. The molecules in most butters/oils are too large to pass into the hair, so
they stick to the outside of the shaft, trapping in the rich goodness of the
moisturizer. Reversing those 2 steps will lead to dry hair.
Hard Hair? You have dry hair. Yes, you may have used conditioner.
Yes, you may have just cleansed your hair. Yes, you may have used grease, and
oil. Sealing your hair, is the single most important step to having healthy soft
moisturized hair. Without sealing, you are starving you have of needed
moisture, and possibly stunting its growth and length retention.
How
often?
Depends on your current hair style. If you hair is not in a
protective style, you should reseal
every 2-3 days. The process takes upwards of 15mins
Here’s
how I seal!
Section hair (using fingers if brittle)
Using a spray bottle (Either water, or a mix of leave in and
water) Coat hair thoroughly.
Smooth oil on damp
hair
Smooth Butter, or additional oil on stands, making sure to
keep ends together, detangled, and stretched
Braid or twist and pin moisturized sections until completely dry.
Unravel and enjoy your soft bouncy hair.
