How to use tea tree oil in your regimen

How to use Tea Tree oil in your hair care regimen



1. Tea Tree Oil-Enhanced Shampoo

How to Use:

Mix It In: Add 3–5 drops of tea tree oil to your regular shampoo (about 8 ounces).  

Why: This slightly scented, diluted mixture harnesses tea tree oil’s antimicrobial and antifungal properties without overwhelming your scalp.  

How Often: Use this blend every time you wash your hair to help maintain a clean scalp, reduce dandruff, and prevent product buildup.


2. Scalp Massage Blend

Ingredients:

 1 tablespoon of a carrier oil (such as coconut, jojoba, or olive oil)  

 3–4 drops of tea tree oil

How to Use:  

Prepare a Mixture: Combine the tea tree oil with the carrier oil in a small bowl.  

Apply: Using your fingertips, gently massage the mixture into your scalp.  

Rest: Leave it on for about 15–20 minutes to let your scalp absorb the benefits.  

Rinse: Wash your hair with a gentle shampoo.  

Why: This method not only calms irritation and reduces dandruff but also boosts circulation to the hair follicles, which can help stimulate hair growth.


3. Leave-In Hair Treatment Spray

Ingredients:  

1 cup of distilled water  

1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (optional, for extra shine)  

3–4 drops of tea tree oil


How to Use:  

Mix Well: Combine all the ingredients in a clean spray bottle.  

Spritz: After washing your hair, lightly mist your scalp and hair with the solution.  

Massage & Dry: Use your fingers to evenly distribute it through your scalp, then style as usual.  

Why: This leave-in treatment helps keep the scalp clean and balanced throughout the day while imparting a subtle freshness and helping manage oil.


Important Tips for Using Tea Tree Oil:


Always Dilute: Tea tree oil is very potent. Dilution is essential to prevent irritation on your scalp and skin.

Patch Test: Before applying a new blend to your entire scalp, do a patch test on a small area to ensure you don’t experience an adverse reaction.

Start Small: If you are new to tea tree oil, start with fewer drops and gradually increase the amount as needed while monitoring your scalp’s response.

Consistency is Key: Like many natural remedies, regular use tends to be more beneficial than sporadic application.


By incorporating these methods into your routine, you can enjoy the antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and scalp-stimulating benefits of tea tree oil while keeping your hair healthy and vibrant.

Argan Oil benefits for Hair: Proven Benefits, Best Uses, and Expert Tips

 



Argan oil, often called "liquid gold," is highly beneficial for hair. It is perfect for the Summertime because it is light weight, helps with growth and controls frizz. 

Benefits of Argan oil

1. Moisturizes and Conditions: Rich in fatty acids and vitamin E, argan oil deeply hydrates and conditions hair, making it soft and manageable.

2. Reduces Frizz: Helps tame frizzy hair and smooth out flyaway.

3. Improves Shine: Gives hair a healthy, natural shine without making it greasy.

4. Promotes Hair Growth: Contains antioxidants that help promote a healthy scalp, which can encourage hair growth.

5. Protects from Damage: Provides a protective layer against heat damage from styling tools and environmental factors.

To gain these benefits use it on a regular basis and watch your dry, slow growing hair transform into a lustrous healthy mane. 


What is Argan oil and what should you look for in a purchase of argan oil? 

Argan oil is extracted from the nuts of the Argania spinosa tree, which is native to Morocco. 

It is typically a golden yellow color, with cosmetic grade argan oil often appearing lighter and more transparent.

It has a smooth, slightly viscous texture, and is usually clear or slightly opaque.

Argan oil has a rich composition yet goes on light. It is perfect for the hair and skin.

Be sure the Argan oil you choose is 100% pure argan oil. 

Expect to pay $11.99 to $21.99 for a 1-4 ounce of argan oil.

Why Cassia Oil is the Holy Grail for Natural Hair Care

 


Cassia aka Cinnamomum Cassia is made from the dried inner bark of the evergreen tree. It is a powerful treatment for the hair and scalp. 

Cassia oil offers several benefits for hair care:

  1. Hydration: Cassia oil’s nourishing properties make it an excellent choice for dry and brittle hair. It can be used in a hydrating hair mask by blending it with a carrier oil and applying it for a deep conditioning treatment.
  2. Frizz Control: Incorporating cassia oil into your hair care routine can help manage frizz, leaving your hair smoother and more manageable.
  3. Scalp Health: Cassia oil has antimicrobial properties that can help soothe the scalp, reducing irritation and promoting a healthier scalp environment.
  4. Strengthening: The oil can help strengthen hair roots, reducing hair fall and promoting overall hair health.


Mix cassia oil with flaxseed oil for a powerful anti-frizz styler.

Cassia oil is typically reddish-brown to golden yellow. It has a strong, spicy aroma similar to cinnamon. It is warming and soothing. Cinnamomum cassia is related to cinnamon, but they are different. Be sure your bottle says Cinnamomum Cassia oil. 

Will you be trying this oil? Leave a comment and let me know.

Recovering your thinning edges

Thinning edges are among the top five hair concerns for black women. Too many experience thinning or balding edges. Much of this thinning is preventable. It's easier to prevent your edges from thinning than to restore them. Nevertheless, with early treatment, in most cases, your edges can recover. 

HOW TO PREVENT YOUR EDGES FROM THINNING

Prevent thinning by remembering the causes of thinning edges. 



1. Small or tight braids 

Very small or tight braids of any type around your edges. Those small braids which look like they are coming out your scalp might look good, but they are terrible for your hair. Most hairlines naturally consist delicate and finer hair, when compared to the rest of our hair. The braid extensions around your edges should be bigger to avoid hair loss. Never have your braids put in tight around your edges.
2. Braiding your hair in the same direction all of the time

Cornrowing hair into the same pattern over and over. This creates traction hair loss. If you are constantly getting cornrows, be sure to change the direction of your cornrow pattern each time. Allow your hair to rest from manipulation at least a week between each braid style. 

3. All types of adhesives: tape, gels, glues etc.  
4. Combs from lace front wigs. 
5. Hats
6. Scarfs tied tightly day after day.
7. Relaxer chemicals

Hair loss solutions


CQR EDGE FUSION RECOVERY 
Supplies needed for this treatment
Silk wrap
Plastic wrap
Natural moisturizer
Stimulating hair growth blend #1
If you cannot cornrow then flat twists your edges as shown here. One cornrow down each side. 

1. Cornrow your edges going in the downward position
2. Massage stimulating oil to all of scalp with extra concentration on the edges. 
3. Spray scalp with warm water
4. Apply moisturizer
5. Cut a strip of plastic wrap, wide enough to cover your edges.
6. Wrap plastic around your edges.
7. Apply silk wrap on top of plastic wrap.
8. Now tie down the rest of your hair as you normally would. 

When you remove the silk wrap in the morning your edges should feel nice and soft. You will do this treatment every night for the first week. Week two, you switch to every other night for 40 days. 

If your hair follicles remain open, you should see your edges filling in nicely within 40 days. You may continue the fusion treatment twice a week until your edges are fully restored.

Additional hair loss solutions
Hair skin and nail vitamins (works wonders if you use them right)
Rogaine (you must continue to use for continued results)
DHT blockers
HAIR FIBERS (temporary solution)
HAIR TRANSPLANT (lasts many years)



USING HAIR FIBERS TO GIVE YOU FAST RESULT!
After you finish the 40-day edge fusion recovery, you can then use some hair fibers to help your edges look better as they grow back. Do not use the hair fibers during the first 40 days of the edge fusion recovery, because you do not want to risk clogging your hair follicles and slowing your progress. 

The hair fibers I recommend are said to be healthy for the hair. They work well to give you the illusion of full edges, without causing you further damage. Check out NATURALME4C as she shares how great the hair fibers work for her. 


HAIR TRANSPLANTS 
There are cases where hair edges cannot be restored and have no chance of regrowth. After consulting a doctor and consistently following all suggested tips, if there is still no 90% recovery of your edges, a hair transplant may be considered. For those experiencing significant hairline recession, this could be an excellent solution. It's worth researching before dismissing the idea. YouTuber Destiny Godley's detailed journey through her hair transplant procedure, which addressed her long-standing receding hairline, can be insightful.

Honey for hair growth and moisture

Honey is a natural and inexpensive way to improve the health and appearance of your hair. Honey is a natural humectant. When used correctly it will help your hair to hold moisture longer. 



Six ways honey is beneficial for the hair 

Moisturizing: Honey is a natural humectant, meaning it attracts and retains moisture. This can help hydrate dry hair and prevent breakage. 

 

Conditioning: The enzymes and nutrients in honey can nourish and strengthen hair, making it look shinier and smoother.


Antibacterial properties: Honey has natural antibacterial properties that can help to soothe and heal a dry or itchy scalp.

Antioxidants: Honey contains antioxidants that can help to protect hair from damage caused by free radicals.



Scalp health: The antimicrobial properties of honey can help to promote a healthy scalp and reduce dandruff and other scalp conditions.


Hair growth: Honey contains vitamins and minerals that can help to nourish hair follicles and stimulate hair growth.




Honey is all natural.  However, it's important to note that some people may be allergic to honey, so it's important to test it on a small area of skin before applying it to your hair. 


Additionally, honey can be sticky and difficult to wash out of hair, so it's best to use it in moderation and rinse it thoroughly.

Scalp Stimulation treatment for growth

The CoilyQueens Regimen is divided into 3 parts: moisturize, stimulate and protect. In this article I cover the stimulate part of the regimen. Hair growth only happens at the hair root, under the scalp. Often when you have slow hair growth, you blame it entirely on genetics.  However circulation is most likely the reason for your slow hair growth. 


Stimulation is circulation. For optimal health we want healthy blood circulation. 


Things which effect healthy circulation:
*Daily exercise
*Eliminating stress
*Eating lots of fruits and vegetables
*Drinking 64 ounces of water daily

Often due to stress our scalp and neck become tense. When the scalp stays tensed, it interferes with optimal blood flow to the hair root. This greatly slows your hair growth down. You might be capable of growing 1/2 an inch or more per month. But due to poor circulation you only grow 1/4 of an inch per month. 

These following processes, practiced often in combination with the tips above, will help you stimulate better blood flow to your scalp. Make them a habit and watch your hair growth thrive. You will reach your length goals before you know it.  


2 stimulation techniques to pump up your hair growth


1. Stimulating tea spray

Vee's Stimulating Minty Tea Rinse:
one peppermint tea bag(scalp stimulator)
one horsetail tea bag (hair growth)
3 drops of pure peppermint oil (scalp stimulator)
4 drops of pure eucalyptus oil (stimulation, anti-fungal/antibacterial)

HOW TO MAKE:
1 clean water bottle
Boil 2 cups of water
(allow water to sit for one minute after boiling)
place 2 tea bags in a cup, and pour hot (not boiling) water over tea bags
Let tea seep for 15 minutes (cover while steeping)
After tea is cool, add 3 drops of pure peppermint oil and 4 drops of eucalyptus and mix

HOW TO USE: Put tea in your spray bottle and spray and massage Minty Rinse on to scalp.
Put remaining rinse into fridge and let it get cold.
Then saturate your hair strands with the remaining Minty Rinse.
Do not store this rinse, make tea on the day you plan to use it. To be used in your final step of shampooing, to stimulate and wake up your hair follicles and help with hair breakage. And the Eucalyptus is great for killing fungus and antibacterial. 


2. Scalp brushing
Stimulate the hair root with a soft bristle toothbrush. Brush the scalp 3 times a week using the special scalp brushing technique.  Full details here

Great working and affordable hair growth vitamins




When going for long length, you want to add a hair vitamin or multi vitamin to your diet.  Most people do not receive all of the daily nutrients required. This is mostly due to consuming lots of fast food. This is also due to cooking food and depleting it of its nutrients. 
This is a good quality supplement, that I have taken for several years. They work great and you can find them at most stores. 

A hair vitamin helps your hair strands grow out strong. Strong hair does not break that easily. This enables you to keep hair on your head longer and reach your length goals.

3 important length retention tips for 4c hair



A good protein treatment will contain hydrolyzed keratin protein in the top 5 ingredients. This liquid protein deposits micro pieces of protein onto each hair strand. This makes your hair stronger and it no longer breaks so easily.

Reach optimum hair growth each month, with hair vitamins!



If you only grow 1/8 or 1/4 of an inch per month, adding a hair growth vitamin to your regimen, can be greatly beneficial. Taking a good quality hair skin and nail vitamin, will make a big difference in how fast your hair grows.  A good supplement on a consistent basis can be a game changer for your hair journey. 




LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP



Taking a hair vitamin for only one month is a waste of time and money. Your hair vitamin relationship should be long term. Be sure you are okay with the monthly price. Because you need to invest in a 3 months supply, of whichever vitamin you decide to purchase. 



Here are some good quality hair skin and nail vitamins I recommend. Great performing at a decent price.

The right oils can make your hair grow and thrive

Many years ago I discovered  the importance of the hair thriving from daily oil therapy. Not just any oils, but the right oils. 




Oil therapy is a huge part of the Coily Queens Regimen. Daily you read about the amazing benefits of using various oils for hair care. Five different oils will have some of the same benefits.There are many oils which help with hair growth. So how do you know what oils are best for you to use in your regimen? Oil therapy helps you to figure that out.

Never use oils derived from a food you are allergic to. Just because you are allergic to eating almonds does not necessarily mean you will get a reaction from almond oil. However that is not a chance to take, especially if your allergies are severe. Consult your doctor first.  




How do you know which oil is the best to use? 

You must choose the oil which heals your hair needs. Knowing the best oils for your hair issue can be very difficult for people to figure out. How would you like your own personal growth oil therapy formula? An oil blend which is specific to your hair.




Along with a special hair growth regimen, you will receive your own customized growth oil therapy formula. This is part of the package you get, when you participate in the "Double your hair growth challenge" aka the "Gain an inch in 30 days" hair growth challenge. 


Each formula is customized!

Find out about the other benefits and how to sign up, here.

Join the challenge which has a 97% success rate over the past 4 years!
