African American females what will mousse do to your hair???Help!!!!?

Question

will it be baby soft, etc. should I use it with some do gro moistrizer hair lotion???

Answer 1

It depends on what's in the mousse. Always read the ingredients. If the first or one of the first ingredients is alcohol don't use it. It will dry out your hair, causing it to become brittle and break off. Most mousses are mainly alcohol and water. Alcohol and water plus black African hair usually equals frizz city. It will definitely suck all the softness out of an afro and leave it feeling like straw. Some mousse products also leave a sticky residue which can cause hairs to stick to each other and become tangled. Tightly coiled and crinkled black African hair needs to be lubricated becuse it has the tendency to kink and the resulting tension and friction of detangling and combing can cause hair to snap and break. I use the term black African to specify the hair of dark skinned people of African descent. Unless you hair is natural virgin hair or strong and healthy, naturally nappy hair that has been chemically treated requires a lot of babying to achieve and maintain length. Unfortunately most products developed to condition hair also tend to make it heavy and sap it of body. Therefore you need a product to set and hold your style especially when heat, sweat and humidity are wreaking havoc on your haido. I know of no mousses which are designed for use on black African hair but I saw these in Essence magazine. Matrix Curl.Life Body Shaping Foam and Motions Foaming Wrap Lotion. They seemed to be geared more toward natural styles or texturized hair. You might give them a try. If your hair is permanently relaxed bone straight and you heat style it you might try a wrap lotion. They are excellent for setting a style. I have limp, heavy, chemically relaxed hair that does not hold a style well. I have used wrap setting lotion and my style stayed for three days in the heat and humidity of the deep dirty South. I believe the product I used is called Isowrap. You can purchase it at Sally Beauty Supply which has several locations nation wide. You can also try going to the websites of manufacturers of black African hair products to try to find what you are looking for. I suggest these companies: Softsheen, African Pride, Africa's Best, Motions, Proline and Revlon. I know this is a lot of information but I hope it helps.

mousse give my hair a light hold but not heavy and hard to comb out. i usually put mousse on my hair on those lazy days when i just want to pull it back in a ponytail. but when i get home all i have to do is run a brush through it and it's back soft and smooth..so yeah mousse is good. i recommend this kind by suave but it is compared to paul mitchell..it is cheap and good..i hope this helps!

Answer 5

It's all merely a matter of personal preference. I actually have short hair and guys just like it. And i prefer a man with short hair over a man with long hair because long hair tends to make guys look also girly.

Answer 6

You sound quite taken with yourself. Maybe a man of any race is not necessary. I've never actually heard what you claim, though. In fact, I've heard that black males are terrified of black females. I do realize that's a stereotype and not always or even usually true.
