DAY 7: POSITION OF YOUR PLANT

The position of your plant can make or mar your plant. If you're to grow your plant outdoors, then you need to provide a shade to it especially during the hot part of the day.

If it's indoors, then Indoors, place aloe in a spot with bright indirect light. But you must be watchful to know when the sun becomes excess.

ABOUT PROTECTIVE STYLES.
PROTECTIVE STYLES PROTECT NATURAL HAIR

Protective hairstyles aim to limit the stress of environmental factors on natural hair by keeping the ends of hair tucked away in order to discourage tugging, pulling, and manipulation.
But if you don’t know how to maintain your natural hair under these styles, it can cause more harm than good.
Protective styles include things like wigs, buns, two-strand twists, box braids or cornrows, but the styles are honestly endless.

HOW TO KNOW WHAT STYLE IS RIGHT FOR YOU
When it’s time for women with natural hair to choose a new protective style, they try to think about the things they plan to do and places they plan to go while their hair is in that particular do.

If you want a look that mimics natural hair, but your on a budget, maybe you will install kinky, curly crochet hair. If you’re looking for a quick “in-between styles” look, you’ll think about braiding 6 jumbo cornrows in your head.

There are many factors that go into play when deciding on a protective style.
1. You have to understand your hair type. The thicker and stronger your hair is, the less of a chance you’ll experience breakage from certain protective styles, such as box braids. Hairstyles that are too tight or pull too harshly on hair can cause breakage.
People with finer hair, or less density need to be more cautious of these sort of styles. But the true key is making sure your hair is thoroughly cleaned, conditioned, and moisturized prior to installing a protective hairstyle. And ask yourself, when was the last time you had a trim? If you notice split ends, don’t be afraid to trim them.

DAY 6: TRANSPLANTING

If you notice your plant growing wide and spreading out, it's best to transplant some of the plants.

Transplanting is easy. Just carefully remove the mother plant and replant in a wider pot. This will make room for the young plants to thrive well.

DAY 5: LOOK OUT FOR WEEDS

The soil around the aloe plant should be free of grass and weeds. Remove these regularly if the plant is outdoors.

I remember seeing weeds in my pot of aloevera and I was quite surprised at first. You might also be surprised to see weeds growing around your plant, please do ensure you carefully take them out.

FEW TIPS TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR HAIR DURING RAINY SEASON(MONSOON SEASON)

The rainy season is upon us here in Nigeria and would last for a couple of months. Here are few tips to care for your hair during this period.

📝 KEEP YOUR HAIR DRY
As the percentage of humidity is already high in the rainy season, you should take extra care to keep your hair dry during this time.. Excess moisture can make your hair heavy and limp.

📝 OILING
A good head massage with oil will boost blood circulation in the scalp and promote hair growth. It will also moisturise the scalp and hair. However, avoid doing this more than once or twice a week as your scalp is more prone to oiliness during this season.

📝 WASH YOUR HAIR IMMEDIATELY YOU GET DRENCHED WITH RAIN WATER
When you get drenched in rain, the rainwater's acidity trapped in your hair may cause an imbalance in your scalp pH. Hence, make it mandatory to wash your hair thoroughly with shampoo once your hair comes in contact with rainwater.

DAY 4: GROWTH

It's very important to note that Aloe grows very slowly. You just need to be patient with it. Allow the plant to develop and have at least 10 or more leaves before you can begin to harvest.

It is advised that you select the leaves from the bottom and work your way upward when you want to use it. This is because, once a leaf has been cut or removed, it will not grow back. All new growth will come from the top of the plant.
