Maintenance

HEALTH & MAINTENANCE

 For maximum health of your hair, visit Kenya:

  - Monthly for deep conditioning treatments

  - Every 6-8 weeks for a trim

  - Every 6-8 weeks for a relaxer retouch

  - Regularly for a hair strength and health analysis

  - Anytime you notice a change in hair health

More tips:
  • -  Get the ends of your hair trimmed every two to four weeks to minimize split-ends and maintain healthy hair. You don't need to drastically clip them, but approximately 1/4 inch should be sufficient.
  • -  Use a moisture rich shampoo (especially if you have colored your hair) to maintain moisture and manageability.
  • -  To protect your hair from chlorine, apply a leave-in conditioner to your hairline and wear a swimming cap. Always rinse your hair thoroughly after your day of fun in the sun and shampoo as soon as possible.
  • -  Your hair should be relaxed every 6-8 weeks but for those who maintain shorter styles, more frequent relaxing may be necessary. As a rule, it's best to wait until you have at least an inch of new-growth before having your hair touched-up. This way you should be able to distinguish between the new-growth and the rest of your hair.
  • -  Sleep with a satin scarf because it helps maintain a better moisture balance than cotton fabrics.

Custom Color




CUSTOM COLOR

Great color and artistic design are Kenya's specialty. Years of experience has given Kenya knowledge on how to create or duplicate virtually any hairstyle and color!


Tip:
 Styling aids such as gels and holding sprays DO NOT help color last longer. Instead, they leach the hair of moisture and can damage already fragile hair. They also cause build-up so occasional use of specialty shampoos for color-treated hair is a good idea. More than likely the manufacturer of the product used to color your hair has a special line of shampoos and conditioners that are designed to maintain your colors vibrancy.

Ask Kenya which products she recommends for your hair.

Relaxers

RELAXERS

Kenya has undertaken extensive training to develop an efficient and healthful approach to relaxing and chemically straightening hair. She emphasizes the need to use a professional especially in this process.

Kenya will listen to you requests and needs to make sure you are satisfied with the result!

Tip: The chemicals used in relaxers are pretty harsh, this is why you have to use a professional like Kenya.

Q: After getting my hair relaxed, what shampoo, conditioner and styling products should I use?  

A: Whether your hair is chemically treated or natural, you need to be sure to read labels.  One of the main ingredients in most over-the-counter shampoos is detrimental to African hair types.  Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is used to strip oils from the hair, but as you know, African hair does not distribute oils in the same manner as Caucasoid hair types.  This is why they shampoo their hair daily and we can go a few more days without experiencing significant build-up.  However, regular shampoos and conditioning is essential to hair and scalp health.

Ask Kenya which products she recommends for your hair.
