What Are Your Tips For Softening Coarse Hair? by sleit(op): 2:24pm On Jan 04, 2020
I've got coarse hair that's difficult to comb unless I thread it.

Kindly share softening tips.

I use Ori for my daughter's hair and it softens for a bit so I can comb

Secondly, only comb when its damp.

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.

If its natural black hair all you have to do is first, spray or sprinkle some distilled (boiled and cool)water on your hair,then apply your hair cream to your hair and comb.

Do this anytime you want to comb your hair. It will be very soft. And always remember to cover your hair with a silk scarf before bedtime.

Greenhouse method works.

Apply extra virgin olive oil to damp hair and wrap overnight.

You can add shea butter to the hair in the morning to lock in the moisture.

Spraying a mixture of olive oil + glycerine & rose water regularly before styling or making works for me.

You should try disproving the fallacy na.

Okay let me help you out:
How many hours on average do you spend getting your hair made the first time (every 2weeks), and how long on average do you spend getting it ready each day before you go out?

I want to know something, what exactly pisses you off about women Crackhaus, is it our very existence? Or every single thing we do? This is me asking a question out of curiosity, not otherwise or whatever you think.

This is me trying to respond as civilly as I can:

1. What gives you the impression that I am bothered by your assumptions about me enough to want to deny, confirm, or explain anything?

2. Why do you even care in the first place?

Re: What Are Your Tips For Softening Coarse Hair? by OkunrinMeta:
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. Ya'll are the real men. I am just the man that likes my hair and how I look.
Re: What Are Your Tips For Softening Coarse Hair? by bobbyL(m):
Get a sulfate-free shampoo as well as a conditioner e.g. Cantu. DO NOT wash your hair daily. Say every 1 to 2 weeks; some even go longer, depends on you, your hair length and style, weather etc. Get maybe coconut oil, olive oil etc for daily application to give some shine. Coarse hair can be something else but with consistent use of conditioners, you should be fine.

I assume you do not want to keep it natural, else relaxer is simply the way to go.

And I agree with the comb comment above.
