Hey Guru! There are so many styles for natural and relaxed hair but not every style is for everyone. Select a styles based on your hair's profile.
What is your hair's profile?
Porosity
Density
Sebum Level
Skin cell turnover cycle
Sweat Gland level (how much do you sweat in your scalp daily)
Once you have the answer to all these questions it's time to select a styling routine that matches your scalp's profile. For example, someone with High porosity hair, highly active sweat glands, and high sebum level shouldn't select a silk press. Your cuticle is easily opened , your scalp is wet after any intense movement and after a week your hair is oily. A silk press is not the style you select form this list. Your hair will convert days maybe even hours after straightened, the body will be taken away after a couple days due to sebum from the scalp weighing the hair down. Your best option would be wash and set or braids etc.

Hi Cyn thank you for your last video. As always very informative and made me laugh but so true, I have set my "Don't Be Dusty" Reminder 🤣 I couldn't find the exact part in the video but you made reference to something that sounded like "metrics" or something "metics" was not sure what this meant. I have low porosity, medium to high density, high sebum, coloured and keratin treated/straightened hair with a 10 wk scalp turnover. I have your ebook with the Chebe retention recipe and yes would love a video on the method. Also, I used to alternate between blow outs with a silk press, pony tail/bun(s) and wash and go) twist outs. But no more air drying for m…
Hi Cyn, I wanted to clarify whether the new memberships have taken effect already or is this starting next month?
