According to world health organization, the following
are habits that will damage your brain severely:
1. Skipping Breakfast – People who do not take
breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the
brain causing brain degeneration.
2. Overreacting – It causes hardening of the brain
arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.
3. Smoking – It causes multiple brain shrinkage and
may lead to Alzheimer disease.
4. High Sugar consumption – Too much sugar will
interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients
causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain
development.
5. Air Pollution – The brain is the largest oxygen
consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases
the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a
decrease in brain efficiency.
6. Sleep Deprivation – Sleep allows our brain to rest.
Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the
death of brain cells.
7. Head covered while sleeping – Sleeping with the
head covered increases the concentration of carbon
dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may
lead to brain damaging effects.
8. Working your brain during illness – Working hard or
studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in
effectiveness of the brain.
9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts – Thinking is the
best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation
thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.
10. Talking Rarely – Intellectual conversations will
promote the efficiency of the brain.
11. Fast/ Junk food.
12. Over eating
13. Worrying all the time
14. Not drinking enough water.
15. Alcohol.
We are all guilty of at least one habit so, please pay
caution and try to stop these bad habits.

Check out five scientific reasons sleeping naked is
really good for you and why you need to to ditch your
clothes.
Sleeping with or without clothes is an argument that
has been going for a long time. Should i sleep with
clothes on or without clothes on?
Well, we have the answer for you, you should definitely
sleep without clothes, and we have scientific reasons to
back our answer.
1. You will get better sleep- According to The
American Academy of Sleep Medicine, your body
temperature naturally declines as a part of your
Circadian Rhythm as you sleep deeply. Wearing
anything could disrupt this natural drop in
temperature and, as a result, disrupt your body’s
sleep cycle. Disruption in the natural decline of body
temperature is also directly linked to insomnia. If
you can’t cool down, you’re going to sleep horribly.
By skipping clothes, you’re really just helping your
overall sleep improve. That’s just science.
2. You can air out your lady parts- Jennifer Landa ,
MD, author of The Sex Drive Solution for
Women says sleeping naked is healthy for your
downstairs lady parts, because your vagina has a
climate similar to a tropical rainforest, it can be a
breeding ground for bacteria and yeast. By
ditching underwear and pajamas, you allow your
vagina the much needed aeration it requires to stay
dry and healthy. And, as we all know, a healthy
vagina is a happy one.
3. You’ll feel sexier-Sleeping naked is simply sexy.
Waking up without pajamas in the way
automatically puts you in a sexy state of mind. It
also means you’re comfortable enough with yourself
to let it all hang out. A more confident you is a
more beautiful you and not just to yourself, but also
to others.
4. You’ll reduce your belly size- If you opt for sleeping
nude, you could reduce the fat around your belly and
even lower your cholesterol. According to the
Huffington Post, your body cools down at night,
increasing your growth hormones while
simultaneously decreasing your levels of cortisol,
which will result in “healthy sleep patterns.” The
perfect night’s sleep would be comprised of two
cycles: the first has your body recuperating with
lower cortisol levels and the second sees your body
working to increase these levels in preparation for
the next day so that you might have energy when
you wake up. If your sleep is interrupted (e.g.
because of your uncomfortable pajamas), your
body will naturally produce more cortisol than usual;
the excess, in turn, is known to catalyze your
appetite.
5. Get ready for a lot more sex- If you sleep naked,
you’re going to have more sex. It’s just logical.
According to Dr. Landa , 'sleeping naked encourages
sex and sexier relationships are happier
relationships.' Naturally, with more sex, you and
your partner’s intimacy will only increase —
especially when the hormone Oxytocin is introduced
into the situation.Oxytocin, as the Huffington
Post notes, reduces stress levels, lowers your risk of
depression and leads to a load of other health
benefits that might seem completely unrelated to
you and your partner naked spooning. Who knew
being naked could “reduce intestinal inflammation”?
Besides, if you have no clothing barriers, what
barricade do you even have?

Warning: This post is long but an interesting read all the same.

As at last year, my relaxed hair was bra length long. My routine was pretty easy. I had a relaxer every 3 months, I washed my hair once in 3 months, never deep-conditioned, used soulmate hair cream and my signature style was a bun. Days I wore my hair out, I was the object of admiration. Everyone wanted to know my 'secret formula' on why it was bouncy, long and fine textured.

It all started when I stumbled on some flattering photos of girls rocking their natural hair on Instagram. I was blown away.
Please note the first time I ever had a relaxer in my life was the
year before I got into the university. Before then, I grew my natural
hair four times (past shoulder length at one point) but my parents
always had me cut my hair for one reason or the other.
My mom was my personal stylist. On days she took me to the salon, people never believed my hair was fully natural. In essence, my natural hair texture was soft, wavy-patterned and very manageable.

So you see, it was only natural I assumed if I cut my relaxed hair and join TeamNatural (no pun intended), my hair was still going to look amazing. During my transition period, those who knew me in reality begged me not to cut my hair so I was confused. Some days, i told people I was only stretching my relaxer while I told others I was transitioning.
During this period, my hair
experienced massive breakage and if there's is one thing I can't stand, it's unhealthy hair! I was combing my hair one evening when I suddenly grabbed a scissors and instructed my sister to cut off my 5months post relaxed hair. She thought I was joking until I ran the scissors from my forehead to my nape. That was the beginning of my natural hair journey.
My friend in diaspora told me so long ori (shea butter) was still in abundance in Lagos and water was free, my hair was going to be just fine.
I went to bed after my big chop and when I woke up the next morning, not only was a combination of shrunken natural hair with early morning face an eyesore, my hair was dry, hard and brittle. Same thing happened every other night. Experts online said it was because I was not sleeping with a satin scarf.
The day I tied a scarf, my hair was dry as usual in the morning and I found the scarf under the bed when I was sweeping. I never woke up to find the scarf on my head no matter how tight I tied it. On the other hand, those satin caps that makes one look like a prophetess are rare to find. Each time I enter a random shop to request for it, the bush sales girl either gives me a shower cap, a lacy net, a hair net or she just stares at me like I asked for snow.
Day time is no different, once the water I spray on my hair dries, the hair revolts by becoming 10 times drier. AC-rooms are currently off limits for me.
As for my cheap wigs aka protective styles, it wasn't long before they began deteriorating...
I resorted to braids.
The first time I went to braid my hair. I tied a scarf while I negotiated with the hair dresser. When we eventually agreed on N4000 for tiny braids, I gave her the money to help me buy attachments while I watched her baby. As soon as she left, I took off the scarf and ran my fingers through my hair.
Good Lord!
Honestly, if I were in her shoes, I wouldn't touch my hair with a 9 foot pole. The hair was so dry that I was certain it needed drones to braid my hair. I had to steal water from her baby's feeding bottle to soften my hair. As usual, my hair got worse as soon as the moisture evaporated even after I sealed it with stolen pear's baby's oil.
When the woman returned to see me without my scarf, she stood by the door and said if that's the thing I expect her to dig her hands, she won't collect anything less than N5000 even if I were her sister. I'm not even going to mention the unbearable pain I felt each time she parted and tugged my hair. I had to beg her to forget I asked for tiny braids and make big braids. (I'm sure naturals reading this are mad I'm not using the word 'install'. Sorry!)

Talk about INSTALLING braids, they no longer come out as neatly as they used to be when I was retouched. My braids currently defies gravity, making it look like I have horns and the only way to counter this is to pack them into a bun all the time. (How do I fix this?)

Once, I tried that thing they call bantu knots and by the next morning, my hair was looking like rat ate some portion with patches everywhere.
My hair has simply refused to look anything like the photos I see on Instagram.
And when natural hair girls talk about twistouts, fingercolling etc. I'm just in my seat like

What are these ones saying.

I don't even know if my hair is type3, type2, type1 or A4. All I know is my natural hair is type-comb-breaking.
To worsen matters, I can't afford all
these fancy products other girls are putting in their hair.

Except,

Ecostyler: I applied ecostyler gel on my way out one afternoon and as I walked past a shop with mirrored doors, no one told me to run back home to wear my wig. My hair frizzled, dried and tangled badly when I was washed out the gel.

Edge Control: I've never been able to achieve that perfect instagram hairline. Each time I apply edge control, my hairline automatically turns white making it look like I applied an excess of sure deodorant on my forehead.

D&L Leave in: Excellent detangler for a natural on a budget. It feels great and alters my hair texture for one hour or so. After this, my hair gets very dry except I keep applying.


Organic Mayonnaise: Honestly, I don't know what this thing does for me though I use it every month. I just added it to my collection so my products won't appear scanty. It was cheap too. LoL


Virgin Olive Oil: I used to have one among the crew but it finished recently. My pastor gave it to me during crossover service in church and despite the fact that it was anointed, my hair was still dry!


Coconut Oil: Homemade. My family is starved of coconut rice because of my hair. This is where all the coconuts we buy ends up.


Water: All thanks to water, I've rocked my natural hair out from my house to VI which is quite a distance. I stored it in a smaller bottle where I sprayed subtly at Gbagdaba and at CMS when the traffic lasted too long. I also sprayed it at my host's office when he went out briefly. Water is great but the terrible itch that comes with it is not beans oh. My scalp is dandruff prone which makes it very sensitive to water especially when I am wearing braids. Once, I had to excuse my date at silverbird cinema so I could take off my wig and scratch my head peacefully in the toilet.
I no longer use water since I got the leave-in.

ORI: This is the only product that works perfectly for my hair. It just had to be local ori of all things! The cheapest hair product! Na wa o. Does this mean my hair is ajepako?


Have I also mentioned my hair grows like that of Jimmy Neutron of cartoon network, making it look like I have three heads because my bigchop was not properly done. Now I keep doing minichops weekly and microminichops daily. I even have a tiny handy scissor in my wallet to rid myself of straying hair strands.

Talk about home remedies to make my hair more instagrammable. What has this hair not eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner from groceries to junk food?

I have mixed ori with egg white and milk.
I have mixed hot ori with coconut oil and olive oil. Do you know a mixture of these 3 is equal to castor oil?
I have mixed coconut oil with coconut milk.
I also get tempted to beat an egg on my head in anger whenever I open the fridge.
A popular natural hair blogger rinsed her hair with beer and when a commenter asked if malt was fine, she said yes. That's how this hair drank Guinness Malt for dinner that day. I even mixed mine with peak milk. Very soon the hair will say it wants Orijin.
The other day someone said my hair was smelling like salad. This was due to the amount of fresh mayonnaise I used as conditioner.
I have also used the juice from ugwu leaves to rinse this hair. (Vitamins treatment)
I did the famous sugar solution rinse. God blinded soldier ants to my hair that night.
It's left for me to rinse my hair with maggi water or chicken stock. That's protein treatment right?

My mom is having her last laugh cos she was against me cutting the hair.
Been asking her how she managed my hair when I was much younger but she has refused to bulge although I'm still on the lookout for the famous cocosheen of the 90's
I'm definitely going to return to TeamRelaxed but that will be when my hair is long enough to pack into a bun.
In the interim, how can I make this hair more 'manageable and instagrammable? Please don't mention any expensive product. I'm currently waiting for the price of bentonite clay, cantu and custard to drop so I can buy them. One of the reasons I went natural was to save money now the reverse is the case. I'm considering a texturiser. Is it advisable or is what I'm going through just a phase every natural girl passes through?

who go help me summarize this textbook?

Creamish:


My point is...before I'd consider online dating, it's either I'm just curious or I basically don't have dat many options around me.. Sometimes tho, u just get to meet someone Whoz online character is quite appealing.
