I keep afro, so these are my tips for making it soft.
(1) Using a good relaxer when there's undergrowth.
I use original touch up plus moisturizing relaxer for coarse hair.

(2) I shampoo and condition my hair twice every week
I use V05

(3) I apply shear butter every morning and night after each bath.

That's all really.
My hair is quite fluffy and soft.
The ladies love it!

Get a comb thru relaxer for black men. It sure would do the trick.

Shave it and keep it low.

A lot of women would have spent an average of 38000hrs on their hair by the time they turn 50yrs old...that's 38000 unproductive hours of their life.

Even sleeping is more valuable.
looking good is a good business. not everyone look good on low cut. hair is the beauty of a women according to Bible.

I have noticed that most of us men don't care about personal grooming. If your hair is l stubborn, most men would simply cut it low instead of looking for a way to make it soft and style it in a way that looks better.


I am not one of those men. I love my hair. So I do the following:

1. Relaxer: This only softens it. I comb my hair while the relaxer is in it. It trains the hair to allow me comb in that direction. Please note that my hair is so tough that you wouldn't even know after I applied relaxer, once it's dried. The main effect is that is much easier to comb for the next 1 week or 2. I use ebony relaxer, it's cheap and it helps darken my Grey hair.

2. Conditioner: I recommend leave in conditioner. Be very generous with it. But buy one that you like the smell. So that'll encourage you to use it. Apply generously to your hair then use a big enough comb.

3.Comb at midday: if your hair is as stubborn as mine. Combing once a day may not cut it. Put a comb in your car, laptop bag or pocket so you can quickly use it during the day. You simply entre a rest room and comb your hair, it's allowed.

For those of you that would say I am less of a man for doing all that. Don't worry, I agree with you. Yall are the real men. I am the man that likes my hair and how I look.

grin

Why don't you cut your hair instead of applying unhealthy relaxer? undecided

My hair is full, thick and coarse but I've been able to manage it by using natural sulphate free shampoo and leave in conditioner, I use Cantu leave-in conditioner by the way. The smell is refreshing.

Next you can manage your hair by applying a daily mist from a spray bottle. For my spraying mist, I use water, glycerin, small amount of leave in and melted Shea butter for moisture and softness.

Yes, one more thing, don't use Shea butter in its hard state oh, melt it in fire, when cool apply on hair, your hair would stretch and be soft.

You can also apply avocado oil on it too for softness.

Re: What Are Your Tips For Softening Coarse Hair? by PerseDew(f): 11:58pm On Jan 07, 2020
1. Whenever your hair is not made, always put it in big plaits of 2 or 4 or big cornrows just don't leave your hair like that for instance after combing except you intend to wear it that way when leaving the house.
2. If you know you will keep loosing the big plaits or cornrows cos you want to make an afro or style your natural hair to go out, pls just get your hair done.
3. If you are adult get yourself about 3 wigs to start with. Try braided wigs too (preferably done with frontal) if you feel odd in them human hair.

I've got coarse hair that's difficult to comb unless I thread it.

Kindly share softening tips.
There's a hair softener that sells for around 2,500#, stylist recommended it.

In no particular order

1)
comb in sections. From the tips to the roots. Helps reduce breakage.
2)
when not styled in box braids or other styles, save hair in large twists or braids to reduce tangling prior to styling.
3)
Detangle and style with a large tooth comb
4)
don’t comb when dry or wet. Comb when damp.
5)
oils are your friend. Use oils when hair is wet or damp to seal in moisture. Oil is a sealant. If you apply when hair is dry, it will seal in the dryness. Dryness is an enemy to our hair texture.
6) avoid styles that are too hard on the edges.

These are the tips I use for my baby’s hair and she has the most glorious head of hair. . I usually just wear braids for myself. no time grin

in naija maintaining afro is very costly for the average naija guy oooo.u forget that is overseas where u can get cheap good hair products for maintaining your afro cheesy.the best the average naija guy can do is shave all his hair and leave his cranium bald grin.the lucky ones that find it hard to grow hair on their cranium will rub palm kennel oil or vaseline on top their bald cranium to make it glow like Glo cheesy cheesy.
