Is Mineral Oil Really All That Bad?
BlackHairInformation.com: Written On Nov 29th, 2010 | By Alma
Does mineral oil really deserve it’s ‘evil to black hair’ image?

So what’s the deal with this oil anyway and why does it deserve our cold shoulder? Mineral oil or liquid petroleum is a liquid by-product of the distillation of petroleum to produce gasoline and other petroleum based products. It has a multitude of uses from cosmetics to lubricating machines in the food industry. Mineral oil is of relatively low value so it’s little wonder that it also finds it’s way quite often into our hair products with all those companies trying to cut costs and all.

How to care for Natural Hair styles*braids*twists etc
By Lady of Braids

Some common misconceptions about braids are that you don't have to wash your hair as much, it's not really necessary to moisturize, that they are just wear and go. For many people living by these rules, braids can be disastrous. How many still experience breakage, split-ends, shedding, dandruff, and hair literally detaching itself from the scalp? The good thing is all of these problems are preventable!

At War with "Unmanageable" Hair
By Tina Opie, Tina Opie: My Ethnic Hair Journey

One of my earliest hair memories is sticking my head out of a moving car window and getting upset when my hair didn’t move. At the time, Kelly Garrett was my favorite Charlie’s Angel and her tresses flowed freely. But here I was, at seven or eight years old, the wind making my eyes tear up, but unable to make a strand of my hair budge. I was disappointed and angry. Why did I have to be born with this hair?

Bronner Brothers Show Highlights Natural Hair
By Stephanie Chen, CNN

There were plenty of Crayola-colored wigs and long, silky extensions displayed at the 64th annual Bronner Bros. International Hair Show, which drew more than 60,000 stylists, hair enthusiasts and exhibitors who work with black hair this past weekend. Yet against the backdrop of energetic hip-hop music and among the booths stocked with glossy tubs of chemical relaxers, some black women went back to basics: They wore their own natural hair.

That might be seem like an unexpected trend, with music artists such as Beyonce and Nicki Minaj sporting bright wigs and extensions. Wigs, weaves and relaxers are indeed big business. In 2006, black hair care products including relaxers, shampoos and hair accessories for weaves totaled $1.8 billion, according to The Hunter-Miller group, Inc., a market research group specializing in African-American issues. But going natural, say several stylists and experts, is making a comeback.
