best hair style



What’s the best hair style and/or type for black women who work out everyday? I have relaxed hair and I’m strongly considering going natural.




A.) This is a pretty complicated question. Which style is best for you is going to be dependent on your personal preferences, the texture of your natural hair and the length you have. For example, you’re not going to be able to wear certain styles until your hair reaches a certain length. If your hair has a loose curl pattern, you might be able to wear a fairly maintenance free style with some “flow”. If your hair is in a very tight curl pattern, you might have to wear a ‘fro until you get some length.




If you’re going to natural though, you probably are not going to be able to wear your hair straight (either pressed or flat-ironed). Again, this will be dependent on your hair texture. If you have a tight curl pattern, you’d have to put so much heat on it daily that you’d end up breaking it off. So, you should consider something like a ‘fro or wearing it in braids, locks or some other style that will not require heat to maintain.

Does downing up to 20 milligrams of quinine in every glass without health consequences? The short history of tonic water tonic water malaria We have the British Empire to thank for the invention of tonic water. Stationed in India in the 19th century, officers found quinine – the general cure and prophylactic to malaria – hard to swallow on its own. So, to make it easier to go down, they mixed the bi...
