Hair talk
Hi my lovely friends I would like you to meet Anitta Black she is taking over the ‘HAIR WHAT I’VE GOT TO SAY’ segment.
Introduce yourself, what do you do?
Hey, I go by the name Anitta Black. At this current time I am a student as well as a natural beauty blogger. I first started out making Youtube video in 2015, now I try to blog and vlog via my website, Instagram and Youtube.
What’s your favourite thing about your work?
It’s quite exciting interacting with my followers and also building my platform. By interacting I get to find out about fashion and beauty tips and tricks from a variety of people. As a natural it’s always good to find people that have similar hair types and problems as yourself this helps so much when you feel you are running out of ideas to maintain and retain hair growth.
Are you natural or relaxed (is that your natural hair colour and texture)
I guess I’ve basically answered this lol. I have been natural for the past 4 years from a big chop. However, I have colour treated over the years and have only been colour and chemical free since May 2016 as I did another big chop.
What are your go to products?
I would say my homemade shea butter mix and oil mix would be my go to products. In terms of hair store products I would say Nunaat keratin deep conditioner and my Shea Moisture range.
What is your all time favour hairstyle?
I am a wig lover to be honest. It’s very easy for me to stick to a regime by wearing wigs during the week, plus I make my wigs so that’s another reason why it’s my fav.
What are your 3 top hair care tips?
Create a regimen, balance protein and moisture treatments and wash my hair in twists. These are the most important for me without paying attention to these three things my hair would just break and knot up.
Do you have a hair routine?
I do have a hair routine. I wash my hair every week alternating between co-washing and shampooing. I moisture deep condition (treat) my hair for the first three washes and on the fourth week I protein treat my hair. In terms of how I use my products my routine is similar, if not identical, to the Alikay Naturals regimen for kinky hair that can be found on their site. The routine that I follow is as followed; pre-poo, shampoo/co-wash, condition/deep condition, the LOC method (liquid, oil, cream) and style. During the week I remoisture by spritzing my hair with a water and glycerine mixture followed by the LOC method, usually I do this three times a week whilst doing scalp and edge massages with my oil every day. Seems a lot but it isn’t really.
Describe yourself in five words?
Goofy, short, playful, shy and open minded
What helps give you inspiration/motivation?
My environment, those around me and a somewhat clear mind lol
What are the top three things on your bucket list?
A successful interactive YouTube channel, creating a hair care and makeup brand with successful collections and a well-established psychoanalysis counselling and training centre.
What made you laugh this week?
A Car breakdown GIF on the Whipgo car rental site lol (simple things make me laugh).
