Nadine's World "Hair Doc"

Today there is a growing need for salons to be able to service all textures of hair. Wouldn't you rather go to a salon that specializes in all textures of hair or would you like to continue to go to different salons for every member of your family? This is a concern that needs to be changed, largely because of the growing bi-racial relationships. Others may start making the change because the money is greener and they NEED to feed their families and pay their bills! We know that people today seek convenience, but more importantly, they really want service. Knowledge is the key to tapping into this clientele and giving them the best hair cut, the best color, and also the best texture! Tap in and make the change.

And the manufacturers didn’t need that [black] consumer market for these lines of products to make some BIG money!! The first chemical relaxer or relaxer treatment (whichever word works for you) that I ever used was Sodium; the second was Calcium; then Thio; then Keratin; and then came Formaldehyde. I said to myself (and my brain said to me, too), “Not a chance. Now why would, with all the other straighteners or relaxer treatments out there, a licensed stylist choose Formaldehyde to ex...
