Myths and misconceptions about Black hair

Ladies, at some point in your life have you ever heard of the following myths about our hair? I know I have and I believed them too, SHAME ON ME!!   It is no surprise that so many of us brought these lies, growing up I recall seeing only a few black women with naturally, healthy long hair and when asked they never spoke about their "secret" on how they grew their hair (I never understood why) so i thought they were just the few lucky ones.The only truth to this list is that they are all false, lies someone told someone else and passed on from generation to generation.

1. Water is the enemy

2. If you wash your hair often it will fall out

3. Dirt helps hair grows

4. Black hair don't grow

5. Dandruff promotes growth

6. leaving grease in the scalp  promotes growth










*I know the list is longer as more come to me I post them, if you have some in mind you would like to see on this list please put it on the comments and I will be sure to add them.
