why are you making rihanna look like woody woodpecker as of late?

Hello,
What is the best hair care method for chemically straightened and colored hair? Should washes, trims, perms be more frequent?

Hey Ursula!

What leave-in hair moisturizer would you recommend?

(dead @ #1)

Hello Ursula,

I have a round face and my hair is shoulder length and straight I want a new look for the summer.. Any suggestions???

My hair is all natural with no chemicals and have decided to grow dreadlocks. My hair has been twisted 2 months now and is yet to lock, do u know of any product that can be used to speedup that process. Gel is currently being used but it itches so I would prefer a more natural product since I also define myself now as being a modern Rastafarian. Thanks!

I tried hair by the pound and I feel as though its expensive and delivers the same as the store weave. With that said what’s the best weave to use and maintain? …concreteloop readers can answer too lol thanks..

I want folks to stop hating on rihanna and her rooster hair. let her do her thing please ppl. With that said, I recently got a my hair cut into a chic mohawk, but now it’s growing out. what is the best style to transition into?

LOL # 1, you wrong

MY Question:

I just had a baby about a year ago and i noticed that my hair was growing while pregnant but after the pregnancy it started to fall a lot, like chunks of it would fall. How can I stop my hair from breaking and falling, and is there a product I can use to make my hair grow more?

Hi!
Can you tell me the best hair products for curly frizzy hair? I’ve tried so may but it seems that I can’t find one that moisturizes and makes the curls look fresh? Also what’s a good deep conditioner for curly, frizzy hair?

Also is it possible to transition from chemically straight hair to hair with a natural wave?

I just got my hair styled in kinky twists and I would like to know, what products can I use to help it to start growing?

Hey Ursula,

I’ve made the decision to go natural by transitioning. I have a slightly curly texture but I can’t determine what hair type at this time. Are there any regimines, products, or styles that you feel are best for transitioning hair?

Question:
I know a diffuser is used for curly/wavy hair and how do i use one to bring out my natural waves and also what are some great products to use

I had the rihanna mohawk with the tail style, now it had grown out and I have been going to the little hair school getting roller sets with the blue rollers. But my question is what are some good products that I can use to get it to grow healthy and a good length ( shoulder length)

Hi I cut my hair into a bob almost 2 years ago and just about this year decided i wanted to grow it back but it seems like its taking forever!! Any suggestions?? Im to the point where im regretting i cut in the first place because my hair was at least shoulder length before.

I want to know how do you make her hair stand up, like in the LAKERS games, her hair is like up with so much volume? How do you make that look happen?

Hi Ursula,
iam 20 ans have only been to the hair dressers ONCE!!I pretty much relax,weave and braid my own hair…but its been getting quite dry recently and only looks sleek and healthy for a few days after it’s relaxed.
HELP!!!

Ursela -

Is it safe to get low//highlights on the same day as receiving a relaxer?
What’s your opinion of Kera Care products?

I am thinking of cutting my hair short…but not sure what I can do at home (meaning products and techniques) I can use between salon visits to keep my hair looking good.

@ BECUZ IM WORTH IT

The comment was unnecessary, sorry dear. I swear, misery LOVES company!

ANYWHO…

Greeting Miss Ursula. I have a question relating to hair vitamins. There are several places you can purchase vitamins but I am interested in your opinion of one. There is a popular vitamin pill called Hairfinity. It contains Vitamins A, C, D, B-Vitamin Complex and Botin MSM. They have a website that includes the supplement facts and promotes the product with high praise. Do you think it’s a good product to use?

I’ve been transitioning to natural hair for about 4 months and am in dire need of protective styles! I understand that braiding is a good choice, however, I am unsure if braiding for long periods-of-time is the best idea for my hair. Do you have any other options that require little-to-no heat? Thank you Ursula, and congratulations to you on your success.

My hair is badly damaged, and i don’t know if it’s the perm i use or the last sew-in i had, do you recommend any products for this?

I have been wearing wigs because after my first bout with a sew in weave, which I left in too long, all of my hair came out. I must admit, I hadn’t taken the greatest care until now, but it seems to grow really slow and some spots don’t seem to be growing at all, mainly the top and the sides. Is this due to nutrition or dryness? I live in LA, the land of hard water.

@ 20..my role

sweetie..i will ask whatever i want..who made you the authority on CL to decide what is appropriate and necessary?

sat down somewhere and worry about them vitamins you need bald head scally wag

and to everyone else..i am a fan of Rihanna but that hair do be sittin up high sometimes..it was all in fun

Hi,

I went to a dominican hair salon for awhile and over time my hair was severely heat damaged and I had to chop off all my hair. Now that my hair is cut, I’m battling horrible scalp dryness and scalp flakiness. I’m thinking this is due to the fact my scalp was maybe partially burned by all the overheated blowdryers that were used? I’m now going back natural and I don’t use any shampoos with sulfates which seems to be helping halfway, but in terms of finding a leave in conditioner, I have not had any luck. I now have braids but my scalp is crying for moisture. Is there anything that can quench my hair and not leave buildup??Is there a specific regimen I should follow?

My friend has very bad damaged hair. She’s thinning on the top of her head and bald spots are becoming noticeable. Her hair is short up front and the back of her hair stops at her neck. Her hair is very dry no matter how much hair lotion she puts in it. Her hair never stays moist, which causes it to break. So she figures to go natural and leave the chemicals alone. She hasn’t had a perm in about 8months and her hair is so unmanageable. What can she use on her natural hair to keep it moist? She went the store and brought the Organic Root Stimulator products. Will this help her hair gain some length or strength? What pill vitamins could help treat her damaged hair?

Thanks

Who does Samata Angel’s hair? It always looks so dope!

I want to make my hair thicker because it is thin and how do I get my hair to grow back around my edges.

thanks

Hi Ursala,

I have a head FULL of hair and everyone always asks me if it’s a wig. I were wigs alot because my hair underneath is OUT OF CONTROL! Right now it’s cut into a short bob but it’s so thick and grows so fast it’s super hard to maintain. Do you know any hair products that will straighten and control my hair during it’s growth period? I get my hair relaxed but my hair grows so fast I need something in between for sleek and shine.

Thanks!
-Crystal

*** Sorry Ursula*** : )

i was wondering if you could tell me what’s a great perm? And shampoo and conditioner? Also what promotes healthy hair, I’m looking to get my hair cut, I love melinda williams haircut also rihanna and halle berry how would I keep something like that up? Please and thank you for your time.

lesa

ok so i cut the sides of my hair off like lala what are the best curly weaves to try to give the rest of my hair the full affect. and ho do i apply then if one sifde of my hair is shaved

Hello

I love getting my hair colored to try something new, but every time I do it shed real bad and I have to get it cut short to start all over again which is cool because I love to try something new but…How can I get my hair dyed and still keep it healthy and full? I have thick and soft hair it grows back fast too

Hello, What is the best leave in conditioner, and shampoo would you recommend for damaged hair. Also what would be the best hair oil to use ?

I’m British and there is a big lack of good hair products in the UK. My hair is mostly in twist braids, before my hair used to be think and long. Now my hair ‘appears’ not to be growing. I use Doo Groo recommended by a friend. I am of African national, pls help I want my thick long hair back. I would also like to bleach part of my hair white/blonde….any ideas? Thanks xox

Hi Ursula,
I was wondering how often do you think African American hair should be washed? I have short hair that I get washed, styled and conditioned every two weeks, but I’m not sure if this is not enough or just right. Really wanted to know so I can keep my hair healthy. Thanks!

Ursula,

My question is my hair tends to be dry. It is chemically treated. I am also noticing some shedding. What is the best product for this issue? I have heard abt the Ojon line also, but it is pretty expensive. What is also a good moisturizing shampoo/conditioner. Thx

Hi Ursula,
I have chemically relaxed hair and would like to wear my hair curly, wavy during the Summer. How can I achieve the curly/wavy look with relaxed hair?

Ursula, I stopped relaxing my hair almost a year ago, and its the healthiest its been in years. My question is what pomade or gel works best on non-relaxed hair. I love ponytails in the summertime, but my hair doesn’t seem to lay down as well as it did when I had a relaxer.

Hi Ursula! What is the quickest and best way to grow natural hair? What products do you suggest?

Thanks!

Hi Ursula,

I recently purchased a titanium iron made by Babyliss. I’m wondering why my hair isn’t as silky when I shampoo/iron at home vs. when I’ve gone to the salon to have it done. It’s more coarse and dry. Could it be the conditioner/heat protectant that I’m using before I iron it?

Hello Ursula,

i wanted to know if you knew any kinds of good curly weaves that look similar to teyana taylors lace wig? im looking for natural looking soft curly hair but i dont know which to purchase…thank you for your time.

Good day.

Hi Ursula,

Is it ok to leave a small amount of conditioner in your hair for dry hair?

Also, what’s the deal with alopecia? Does it only affect women of color? Is it curable

Thanks

Tee

Hi Ursula,

I have Fierce Layers, at it’s longest point my hair is 16″ and the shortest is 3″ (all mine, no weave) - I guess my hair resembles a modern day Farrah Fawcett… I love my hair and am complimented on it each day - my problem is that I have Dry Flaky Scalp. Is there anything I can do for this?

Also, I’ve never do my own hair and I will be attempting to wash and style it for the first time ever. What drying method would you suggest I use? (If I had to think of a celebrity with similar hair texture to mine, I would guess a mix of Jordin Sparks and Corrine Bailey Rae)

Hope you can help!

HEY URSULA!!

A WEEK AGO, I SHAVED MY HEAD STRAIGHT BALD! NO, I DIDN’T GO CRAZY BUT I WAS JUST SOOO TIRED OF DEALING WITH MY THICK, COARSE, OUT OF CONTROL, EVEN THO REGULARLY RELAXED HAIR. PLUS JUST LIKE #8, I HAD A BABY OVER A YEAR AGO & CHUNKS WERE FALLING OUT!! SO I SAID, THE HELL WITH THIS!

IT FEELS GOOD NOT TO HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT HAIR NOW SO I CAN CONCENTRATE ON MY SCALP, THE FOUNDATION. MY QUESTION IS: SINCE I’M STARTING ALL OVER, WHAT CAN I DO NOW TO MY SCALP NOW TO ASSURE THE BEST & HEALTHIEST HAIR WHEN IT GROWS OUT?? (WHICH IT SEEMS TO BE DOING VERY QUICKLY!)

THANX!

that can also be straightened …thanx again.

I have natural hair thats a little past shoulder length, however it has been the same length for while now. What can I do so that my natural hair will continue growing?

HAHAHAHHAAH @1

I second that.

RIhanna’s hair is a MESS.

Hi Ursula,

I am a hairstylist and I know my work is really good. But I want to put my skills out to the world. Being as though your so young and talented. Would you have any advice to help me further my career as well?

Hello Ursula,

Im trying to grow my hair out and I was advised to put peppermint oil in my shampoo but im not sure how much I should put in.
How much would you recommend? Also does glover mane and sulfur 8 make your hair grow?

Thanks for your time!

Ursula!!

My hair is VERY damaged, I have bald spots on the sides and right in the front (from parting it, in the middle ironically enough to brush the hair down, to cover the bald spots on the side, I am of mixed race and my mother’s hair is very very thin. I have resulted to wigs and some weaves back in my day. but honestly I don’t know what else I can do….I live in Sacramento CA and am too embarrased to walk into a salon. What can i do?

Due to wearing a ponytail all the time, my hair has broken out profoundly in the back. I have a nice grade of hair but it doesn’t appear to be growing back, what can I use/or do to make it grow?

Also, is it true that if your hair is uneven we have to cut it all even and start over. Even if that means going really short. Some beauticians say its true and others say it isn’t. What do u suggest?

Hey Ursula,

First I would like to say congrats on your success.

My fiance has thick natural hair. His dandruff is TERRIBLE, he has tried Sulfur 8, Head & Shoulders, and Selsun Blue, but none of these products seem to work, after about a week his dandruff looks like it just snowed on his head LOL Do you know of any products he can use to tame this PROBLEM!!

Do you do hair in NYC (outside of celebrity hair)? And if so, where?

I am planning on getting my hair cut this summer, and I like the looks of Keysha Cole & Rhianna. My question is I just dont want the regular cut and curled look how do I get the loose curly styles on a short hair style? Also I have breakage in the center of my head, that is the only problem area in my hair the rest is pretty thick. But in that one spot it stays broken off. Thanks: )

HI URSULA!
You are the most amazing hairstylist! My question is I’m starting to work out and I was wondering if you can give me tips about gym hair cause my hair is so sweaty when I finish that I have to wash my hair, what should I do HELP!!! Also, I”m thinking about getting my hair cut very short, what are some short styles that you prefer ?

Hey Ursula,
Ok, so I am the epitome of mixed (Chinese, Jamaican, Irish, Spanish, African American, Native American Indian, and thats just to name a few.) So I have a hard time finding the right hair care. My hair is naturally curly, but is not coarse or nappy. It’s thin, and gets frizzy when curly. My problem is I want to wear my hair in a natural state more because I am growing it out. Do you have any products that will prevent frizz and contour my curls, along with providing moisture and help my hair grow? I know I am asking for a lot, but I am growing it to donate to locks of love. I have used Mixed Chicks and Jessie’s, and they work alright, not great. I just want something that will work….. Ok, last problem when my hair is straight I do not like to weigh it down with hair oils. What can I use to give my hair the shine and moisture that is necessary without looking like a greasy mess?….. Please Help! Thank You!!!

Currently I’m wearing a sew-in with my natural hair left-out at the crown and edges. It’s incredibly humid here in Atlanta and while I prefer to rock my hair bone-straight (without a relaxer), I notice that sweat and humidity cause my left-out edges to revert towards the roots. What type of styling product can I use to prevent my natural hair from curling up at the roots while combating humidity and frizz.

Hey Ursula,
I wanna transition from relaxed hair to texturized. My hair past my shoulders and I’m not really a short cut kinda girl. I’m tryin to avoid really damaging my hair during the transition… So not too much heat aside from the blow-out I get from the Dominican salon. Can I just put the texturizer onto my new growth and clip the relaxed ends slowly or should I just rock braids or a weave in the meantime while I wait for my natural hair to grow out and texturize it all at once. My hair is a 4a/b so I figure the texturizer would make my hair more manageable.
Thnx

hey ursula i ave a roundish shape face and i wan 2 try the full front bang style but i am afraid that it will only make my face appear rounder than it really is..tell me if you think i sholus try it or any other suggestions you might have thanks.

Hi, I have been growing my hair out since spring 07, I had it cut in January and I have a great hair stylist who treats and press my hair every two weeks. The problem is its now summer in Detroit, that means 90 degree weather and high humidity. So 20 mins after I get it pressed it looks like I just rolled out of bed. What am I suppose to do with my hair durring the summer time? Is there a product I should use or do I go back to sew-ins for a while?

Does Sulu Max Gro actually work?

Hey Ursula!!!
I am a 22yr old female with mid-back length dreads. I must say, that I am tempted to cut them off because of the limited style options. Are their any fun, funky, crazy but cute styles you can suggest so I can avoid the BIG CHOP???

Hi, I have been natural for about two years.. i wear my hair straight ..i wash it it every week because it gets extremely oily and i like my hair to move and flow. but because i wash it so often i do use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. then i flat iron it.

my question is, what should i use to protect my hair from the heat i put on it ..i want a product that does not leave an oily film on my hair. also what product do you suggest to bluck humidity?

heyy girll!

my question: is it bad to perm the front of your hair only wenn yu have a weave in.. and yu start to develop new grow in the front??

-.. Ladyy A!

Has Ursula answered ANY question(s)? I’ have not read one answered question since CL has featured her.

Hi Ursula, I am 16 years old and i have been getting a perm since i was 9 years old. My hair was growing a lot and was very healthy. But recently my hair have been breaking, became very thin, and doesn’t grow as much as it used to. I thought it was because i was perming my hair too often, or because of a product i was using. I was wondering what would be the best products to use so that my hair can start growing and become strong and healthy? Also i am using Motions as my relaxer, do u recommend anything better?

@62, I’m not Ursula but YES. lmao. I’ve done it for a min and let’s just say I had the Brandy. And I’m not talking about the wig style. lol. I think because we have the tendency to over work the edges to make it blend with the weave. And we neglect the rest of our natural hair. So of coarse with time,the grade of your edges will be thinner than the rest of your hair. But wait and see what solutions Ursula has, because I want to go back to that style

Hey im in college and have not been able to find a salon that i get to on a regular basis…what suggestions to you have for maintaining healthy hair (permed) while away at skool?

DO YOU KNOW ANY GOOD PRODUCTS TO PREVENT FRIZZY HAIR?
DO YOU KNOW ANY PRODUCTS THAT HELP FIGHT HUMIDITY? * i hate when i step outside & its humid & my straighten hair gets all messed up & frizzy.
WHAT IS THE BEST SHAMPOO TO USE?
BEST FLAT IRON?

thanksss.

HI URSULA I HAVE A SHORT CUT AND IM PREGNANT. IM TRYING TO LET MY HAIR GROW OUT… ANY SUGGESTIONS ON VITAMINS OTHER THAN PRENATAL VITAMINS TO HELP MY HAIR GET STRONGER

Hi Ursula, i wanted to get my hair sewed-in with a straight weave, and i wanted it to be very versatile and to look very natural.. I know that I have to leave out my natural hair around the edges but i am not exactly sure how. Can you please tell me how to do it, so that i can switch from a side part, to a middle, and maybe a bang, without my tracks showing and to achieve the natural look? Please!!!

Hi Ursula!
Im a dude and i want to color my hair but i don’t know if that okay or should i just leave the coloring to women.i am your complexion and I have colored my hair jet black before and i turned out to be really nice. It was like an oriental esque! any suggestions??

Heyyy! I’m in a situation… I’ve had long hair all my life and I recently took a very big step decided to cut it very short like a Rihanna type of thing of course I didn’t realize how hard it is to maintain it or even style it. I would love to learn how to make my hair look as cute as Rihanna’s what hair products should I use?? My hair is very manageable and full. HELP please!

um okay…so I’m natural and BC’d in January. I tend to be a product junkie but I’m trying to put those ways to the side. I know they say when your natural not to use mineral oil or products with petroleum in them because they clog your pores, so I tried to the evoo route and other natural oil routes and my scalp with be dry again in an hour. When I use products that do control those harmful products my thirst is quenched. What could I use that’s not harmful but will quench my natural hair’s thirst? I’ve tried Carol’s daughter and Natural Shea butter which is way to heavy at times. HELP A SISTA OUT lol
