Hello!! Today has been one of the coldest day to record in Atlanta GA, but this cold front is pretty much covering the entire nation. Cold weather can make the hair and scalp extremely dry so stay warm and moisturized people. So wherever you may be here a few helpful tips to keep your hair in a healthy state through this winter madness.

Here are the top 7 healthy hair tips for black women that form the basis of what makes yours healthy and beautiful.

1. Wash your hair once every 3-4 days - Water is the only thing that can truly moisturize your hair. Try not to go longer than a week without at least a conditioner rinse.
   
2. Deep condition your hair regularly - A thick crème based conditioner, hooded dryer and plastic cap = magic. These things are your best friends when you realize what they do for your hair.
   
3. Use protein conditioner at least once a month - Strong hair is healthy hair. Infusing protein is a must no matter what condition your hair is in. Balance moisture and protein so your hair doesn't get brittle and dry. A good ratio is 4-6 moisturizing treatments to 1 protein treatment.
   
4. Take care of your scalp - Hot oil treatments every 2-4 weeks ensure a healthy nourished scalp. Organic castor oil stimulates hair growth and a few drops of tea tree oil keeps flakes away.
   
5. Moisturize your ends daily - Sealing your ends keeps them from drying out and splitting. Healthy ends are the key to accumulating length.
   
6. Wear protective styles often - Protective styling keeps your hair shielded from drying air and over manipulation.
   
7. Trim your hair when it needs it - Having a set trimming schedule isn't necessary. Clip your ends when they need it and leave them alone if they don't.

I guarantee these healthy hair tips for black women will give you results if you put them to work. Take it a step further and use these tips to custom design your own healthy hair regimen.
