DON'T REMOVE YOUR OWN WEAVE!


Don't remove your own sow-in weave, especially if you don't know what you're doing.

I have a client scheduled for tomorrow. She had a weave and, I guess, she just had to get it out immediately. Well, she cut her own hair. Thank God for my daughter who came to her rescue and finished taking it out for her.

Unprofessional people, please let someone else take out your weave for you. Even if they aren't a professional, they can see where and where not to cut far better than you. Their eyes are directly over your head.

Now that's cutting to stunt the growth in a worse way! Just a NOTE from the Hair Dr. Darlene. email: www.darleneisradiant@gmail.com

INVISIBLE PARTS LEADS TO BALDING!

Normally, as the Hair Dr., I'm responsible for taking care of my daughter's hair. Every now and again I 'll treat her to the salon to get a different experience. Well, she so desired this new weave with the "INVISIBLE PART" and I negotiated to pay $85.00 vs. $130.00.

The salon did a Fabulous Job, so I thought. One week later it looked as if her part was getting wider and wider. Now mind you, weaves can last for at least a month. Because I know if I do it it's free, I told her she was keeping it for as long as she can. Going into the second week, her part has now become a bold spot, more like a bold line where the part originally was.

So, I have to have her take it out, because the health of her hair is more important than any amount of money I would give to have her hair designed.

What looks good isn't always good for the health of your hair and scalp!

Knots without the Locks!


I have a few clients that get relaxers (hair straighteners) and as the new growth grows in, they seem to just rake the top of their hair to cover the roots. This means the new growth becomes entangled and creates knots.

This makes my job hard for many reasons, but I'll give you two.

1. It's time consuming to detangle the hair without losing some; many times a lot, if you don't take your time and use a conditioner.
2. My client's complain when they see hair in the sink, like it's my fault.

I just keep it real from the beginning, so they know what to expect and why. This keeps me from being accused of something I'm not responsible for.

LADIES! COMB YOUR HAIR FROM THE ROOTS TO THE ENDS! STOP BEING LAZY!

DON'T LET JUST ANYONE PUT THEIR HANDS IN YOUR HEAD!


Have you ever went to a salon feeling REAL GOOD and left feeling REAL BAD OR UNEASY and not sure why?

Well, atmosphere is so important when you are going to have your hair done. The order and cleanliness of the salon is important. What type of music is playing to set the atmosphere, if any?
The MOST IMPORTANT thing; who is the person working in and on your hair as well as over your head? What is their attitude like when they greet you? What is their conversation like? Are they rushing you in and out of the chair or are they concerned with the desired result you are looking for? Are they gossiping to others or even to you? Are you accepting this or joining in with the gossip?

Do an evaluation the next time to go to the salon. You will discover the answer of why your Fabulous mood has turned into a Flop. A day at the hair salon should be a day of relaxation and rejuvenation.

DANGERS OF BRAIDS!

"DANGERS OF HUMAN HAIR EXTENSIONS"

Hair from a human whether donated for your cause from a living or deceased human carries the personality and attitude of the person it belongs to. If the person is a "sweet" person, a "mean" person "bipolar", nervous, worrier, etc., those vibrations are transferred into each hair strand. In other words, hair carries the spirit of the person.
Your mind being such a powerful force of creation is always receiving (sensitive) sound and vibrations which goes into the inner being of you. What goes in always come out. So if you ever wondered why you, a friend, loved one, child is acting crazy, lazy, anxious or any behavior that maybe out of the norm for them, just check to see if they've ever had braids.

How about monitor their behavior when they "GET THEIR HAIR DID" verses when they their hair in it's natural state. It would be great to hear your findings.
Keep your sanity at all cost. Just what the Hair Dr. ordered!

Have questions or comments, follow my blog, your opinion means a lot.

HAIR WEAVE EXPERIENCE THAT CAUSED PAIN!


How many women leave the salon chair in "DISCOMFORT OR PAIN" OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN, with a FABULOUS Hairstyle/WEAVE and never say a word to their Cosmetologist/Hairstylist?
INSANITY, INSANITY, INSANITY

This is unfair to the cosmetologist/hairstylist that is concerned about "HAIR CARE" and moreso YOU! Communication is the key! We don't feel what you are experiencing when you are getting your hair done.....and I always ask my clients, "How does this feel? Is it too tight? Are you o.k.?" I can only believe they will be honest with me. Some are not, read on!
As the best at what I do, I NEVER have a hair complaint. However, just recently, a client of mine who I gave a weave style, and YES, I do weaves although I like for my clients to be natural. But there are different strokes for different folks. This doesn't mean I just drop them. I wasn't always into natural hair, and don't expect them to change immediately. IT'S A PROCESS!
Anyway back to the point. After a week, I saw her and she was complaining about tenderness and sensitivity on her hairline which caused her major aggravation during the week. Mind you, she just mentioned this too me. She didn't call me, but came to visit not for that reason. And the worse thing about it is, she didn't say anything until about 5 hours passed while she was at my home.
PEOPLE ARE INSANE FOR BEAUTY THAT CAN BE VAIN!

So immediately, I started taking the weave out and because I began to ruin the hairstyle, she told me to STOP! She said, "That's o.k. I have work and school next week and don't want to mess up my style. But, I refused to stop, and at first she was very angry with me, because I wouldn't allow her to go through the pain she was now in after waiting so long to say something to me. It was in just one small area, but PAIN IS PAIN, and need to be dealt with.
I was disappointed in her, because she should have told me immediately. I would have taken it out and redone everything, "NO CHARGE", NIPPING IT IN THE BUD, so that she nor I would have to go through the aggravation. I still had compassion for her and began a special treatment for her right away. The Hair Dr. will always make it right-SATISFACTION GUARANTEED!
