How Can I Grow My Natural Hair? Like For Real?
Hey Hair Bestie,
Let’s have a real moment. I know you're not just looking for another product that promises growth, you want something that actually works. I hear you, and I’ve got you. Growing natural hair takes more than hype. It takes consistency, care, and ingredients that actually nourish your crown from root to tip.
If your goal is to grow longer, stronger, and healthier hair, especially after a setback like postpartum shedding, stress, or breakage, and cradle cap on your little one? this post is for you. Let’s break down a realistic hair growth game plan that actually works.
First: What Does “Hair Growth” Even Mean?
Your hair is always growing. The key is keeping what you grow. That means minimizing breakage, improving scalp health, and giving your hair what it needs to stay strong and moisturized.
💁🏽♀️ Step 1: Start at the Scalp
Healthy hair begins with a healthy scalp. Think of your scalp like soil, if it’s dry, clogged, or neglected, nothing will flourish.
Here’s where our Nourishing Hair Growth Oil comes in. This oil isn’t just for shine. It’s infused with nutrient-rich oils and herbs like castor, vitamin E, calendula, coconut, olive and rose extract that stimulate blood flow to the scalp, awaken follicles, and support healthy, visible growth over time.
✨ How to use it:
- Apply directly to your scalp 3–5 times a week
- Massage gently in circular motions for 3–5 minutes
- Don’t rush this part, scalp massages are magic!
💧 Step 2: Keep Hair Moisturized to Prevent Breakage
Dry, brittle hair breaks. Period. And if you’re losing as much as you grow, you won’t see length.
That’s why daily moisture is your best friend. Our Leave-In Conditioner Hydration Spray is the secret sauce, it softens strands, hydrates thirsty curls, and preps your hair to retain length. Pair it with Raw Shea Butter or the Growth Oil to lock in that moisture.
✨ Use this daily or every other day, especially during protective styles.
🛡️ Step 3: Protect What You’re Growing
Protective styles are one of my favorite ways to support growth. But here’s the catch, they need to be done right.
Healthy protective styles should:
- Allow easy access to your scalp
- Tension-free (no tight braids or edges under stress)
- Stay in for 2–6 weeks max
- Moisturize regularly (hello, Hydration Spray!)
During protective styles, don’t skip the oil and hydration. Keep that growth going underneath!
🍃 Step 4: Use Clean, Natural Products
Products that strip or clog your hair and scalp will slow everything down. Our Black Soap Shampoo Bar gently cleanses without sulfates or harsh chemicals, leaving your hair soft and your scalp fresh.
Start your wash day with it, then follow up with the Hydration Spray and seal with oil or butter. Clean scalp = better growth.
💪🏾Step 5: Be Consistent, Not Perfect
Growth takes time. Don’t stress over inches, focus on healthy habits. The inches will come. I promise you.
Set a simple routine:
- Scalp oil + massage 3x a week
- Hydration spray daily or every other day
- Wash and deep condition every 2 weeks
- Trim every 3–4 months to remove damaged ends
In Case You’re Wondering…
Q: Can your Growth Oil be used on small children’s hair too?
A: Yes, it’s safe and gentle for little ones, literally the whole family. Just do a patch test first if they have a sensitive scalp. Massage it in like a bonding routine it works wonders!
Let’s Recap:
Real growth comes from:
✅ A healthy scalp use our (Black Soap Shampoo Bar) and our Nourishing Growth Oil)
✅ Moisture retention (hydrate with our Hydration Spray)
✅ Gentle handling and protective styles
✅ Clean products
✅ Patience + consistency
