B:
Botanical ingredients make for happy hair

Detangle with patience from ends to roots

Know your hair key elements Texture, Porosity, and Density

U:
Undo tight ponytails or any restrictive bundling to prevent stress on the hairline

V:
Vitamins aren’t miracle pills, they’re helpful to take when your diet is lacking

W:
Water is your hair best friend inside & out, so be sure to drink an adequate amount to stay hydrated

Your natural hair isn’t complicated, the things you’ve been doing is making it complicated
