Ona gave us the scoop on hair slugging, how to prevent breakage and why Sleep Sleeve is a no-brainer when it comes to our daily hair styling.

 

What is hair slugging?

The use of oils to lock in moisture. 


Is it safe to deep condition our hair overnight?

When using pure oil, this is safe because there’s no pH which can damage your hair. However, the use of masks or conditioners that are not meant to stay in overnight is a hard no. 


How does a tool like Sleep Sleeve support our hair health?

Sleep Sleeve’s ability to block friction while we sleep is a game changer. Friction on hair is dangerous because it can knot up the hair, causing breakage and drying out your hair.


Do you have a go-to home moisturizing recipe we can try?

My go-to natural oil is aloe vera oil which is an amazing source of moisture and rich in vitamins.


Any tips for achieving and maintaining our healthiest hair?

Less is more! Easy on the heat, over styling, daily shampooing, etc. Too much of anything is never good.
