Blueberries, Get Your Blueberries

0 Comments

Eating fruits, vegetables, and lean meats is a smart way to stay healthy, but consuming blueberries for hair health and growth is something you may not have considered. When it comes to best fruits for promoting hair growth, blueberries are often placed on the top list. They are rich in vitamin C and other essential nutrients that can help maintain the healthy circulation of your scalp and also help improve tinny blood vessels of follicles to work better.

Blueberries are classified as a super food. Each little berry is packed full of vitamins and antioxidants to help keep the body healthy. They nourish the body from within and reach out to help a person’s crowning glory grow. Blueberries offer a wealth of nutrition in a small package. Blueberries contain 80 calories per cup, almost all of which come from 16 grams of carbohydrates (sugars) in the berries. Blueberries contain virtually no fat and a negligible amount of protein. One cup of blueberries contains a whopping 16 grams of fiber.

Celebrate National Blueberry Month and your hair by including blueberries in your diet!

Mineral Oil and Hair Don’t Mix

0 Comments

Mineral oil is a common culprit that actually accumulates on the scalp, which in turn blocks the hair follicles, slowing hair growth. If it builds up on the hair itself, it attracts and holds dirt and residue, which makes the hair appear dull and unhealthy.

Mineral-OilIt is one of a number of inexpensive byproducts that are made from petroleum. Sometimes referred to as paraffin oil, white mineral oil is composed of a blend of hydrocarbons that is not unlike that of petroleum jelly. The difference is that mineral oil is a liquid petrolatum, making it an ideal choice for a number of applications…especially in hair products.  Mineral oil like other oils is meant to lubricate the hair, and gives conditioners and moisturizers the “slip” in the black hair communities.

Mineral oil coats the hair shaft so a residue is inevitable. If you continue to coat your hair and scalp with mineral oil based products you may experience excessive build-up that can lead to thinning hair since the hair shaft and scalp are not receiving the nutrients they need.

Your hair and scalp can tell the difference; treat them right!

Chop It Up

0 Comments

big_chop_janecartersolutionHave you been contemplating the “big chop” but are instantly stopped in your tracks from a sudden wide range of emotions? You are not alone!

Letting go of your relaxed ends is a major step; this is the “all in” option, similar to sky diving – no turning back. There is no easing in and for many is a pivotal moment as it is immediate, bold and deliberate.

Once you make the decision to stop chemically altering your hair, you need to decide how you’re going to go about it. If you decide to do it and the process of transitioning may require a bit more time than you hoped then the next and quickest route is the big chop. Once you cut away all of your processed hair, you instantly have only one texture to deal with as the chop eliminates the need to work with both your transitioning and previously permed textures.

We here at Jane Carter Solution are here to support you during your journey. Visit our Personalized Hair Care Prescription page for customized product suggestions to suit your hair care and styling needs.
