Ayurveda
What is Ayurveda? Ayurveda is a natural system of health and wellness that originated in India more than 3,000 years ago. In the haircare sector, ayurveda focuses on herbs and oils to cleanse, condition, grow and maintain a healthy head of hair. BeeBoldacious uses ayurvedic herbs and oils to create natural haircare products for kinky/curly hair types. All products include ayurvedic herbs.
Why Ayurveda? Ayurveda, herbs and oils are plant-based remedies that prevent premature hair loss, reduce dandruff, prevent premature greying, promote hair growth, reduce frizz, resolve hair fall issues and improve overall hair texture. It is a natural regimen for natural haircare.
CLEANSING
Cleansing kinky/curly hair can be a bit tricky. The goal is to have nice clean hair, free of product; we do not want to strip the hair of all of its moisture during the cleansing process. This could result in dry and brittle hair which will lead to split ends and breakage. There are several safe ways to cleanse kinky/curly hair. Many kinky/curlies co-wash; this is where you cleanse the hair with a conditioner. There is also the black soap wash and the oil wash. Check out the how-to videos for a complete demonstration.
CONDITIONING
It is important to deep condition your hair; this should be done approximately once a week. My goal is to minimize the amount of chemicals I put into my hair. I try to use as many natural and organic products as possible.
​
I also like to use a leave in conditioner. If you have done your research on natural hair then you have probably heard of Kimmaytube. She has an awesome recipe for a leave-in conditioner; I have a rendition of this recipe that I would like to share you.
STYLING
I am a BIG fan of the wash and go method. As a natural who lives in a hot & humid climate; I prefer this style because I do not have to worry about my hair becoming dry & frizzy. It is easy to maintain, fun to style, and very versatile.
​
In the past, like so many other Naturals, I used cheap gels to achieve my wash and go style. I also used many different conditioners with lots of chemicals. My skin and my hair paid dearly. My hair became dry, brittle and began to break off. I could not find a gel that would moisture, seal and define my curls; so I made one. Check out my video to see how I achieve my wash and go using the natural, organic BeeBoldacious JellyJam. This is a fabulous, flaxseed gel with shea butter and a natural blend of essential oils. For my 4c BeeBoldacious Beauty’s try the BeeBoldacious Moisture. This is an excellent product for adults as well as kids.
