Myth: Do not use sunscreen lotion if you are black or multi-cultural. It’s a waste of money.

Fact: That statement is false. Sunscreen lotion should be used daily when you are exposing yourself to direct sunlight. The sun contains UV (ultra violet) rays that are harmful to human skin regardless of color or lack thereof. Additionally, using products heavy in shea butter, as shea butter is a natural sunscreen, is also advisable.

Myth: Oiling your hair leads to thicker and stronger hair

Fact: This statement is false. Oiling your hair regularly makes the texture of your hair smoother. It also prevents your hair from becoming dry or brittle. However, it does not make your hair thicker or stronger. If you maintain a consistently healthy diet and give your hair excellent care, you will notice that your hair will appear healthy and vibrant. Keeping the proper moisture balance in your hair and scalp creates a more stable environment suitable for hair growth. It also helps prevent breakage.
