Inversion Method (Scalp Massages)


                                                         

Everyone knows how obsessed I am with scalp massages. For curly girls, there's never ENOUGH growth. I mean come on who doesn't want more volume and longer tresses? Throughout my own personal healthy hair journey, I've played around a lot with techniques and times, and I've FINALLY found the answers I needed!

The physical act of scalp massages gets the blood flowing to the scalp, aiding in hair growth. The inversion method is taking scalp massages one step further. As I like to say, the inversion method is for those hardcore hair growth addicts. 

The inversion method is the physical act of bending your hair over forward, and allowing the blood the flow to your scalp much more quickly. The more circulation to your scalp the quicker your hair grows!

The method calls for one week out of the month. For one consecutive week (Seven days), do your scalp massages bent over like this. I've seen more growth when I use a couple drops of oil on my scalp as opposed to just dry scalp massages. 

I'm a huge fan of the inversion method because it allows me to stretch my back while I do the massage and watch Shark Tank on my television. I modified the technique by doing it everyday as opposed to only seven days out of the month. My results are the collage above, both photos are two months apart (after scalp massages) . Two months of inversion method scalp massages with oil. You can clearly see more volume two months later. 

Go try it for yourself and let me know your results! Comment your results below!

Welcome to Red Carpet Curls

Dear Reade r, Welcome! I am so happy to be able to finally bring this site to you! This is literally a culmination of months and months of insane research to really understand the science behind everything I do. I wanted nothing more than to share that knowledge with you all and create an all in one website! So, here it is! This blog focuses on the Curly Girl Method, if you don't know what that is just check out the post "What is the Curly Girl Method," for clarification.  Every week, I will be adding new articles, so if you don't see what you are looking for just contact me and I'll let you know if there's an article for it, if not I will personally write it up for you.

Ah, the wonderfully complicated world of humectants. This is really where knowledge is power, because if you know the proper times of year and situations to use these ingredients it can ensure either the best hair days you could possibly dream of, or the worst nightmare of your existence! Okay, no hair day is ever that bad, but you totally get the point. Now, I know this discussion is going to take a lot of twists and turns, and at some points you're going to see some words that drag you all the way back to sophomore year chemistry.

Everything You Need to Know About Hair Porosity (Including Tips for High and Low Porosity)

Photo Credit: Google Understanding your hair's porosity is by far one of the most valuable pieces of information you can possess when it comes to the health of your crown. Porosity dictates the pattern in which your hair absorbs and loses moisture. This will be invaluable when it comes time to pick the right products for your mane. Always remember, your hair is unique, your body chemistry, your genes, elements you are exposed to are all unique to you. This is why I always advise all new followers and fans to never compare your hair to someone else's, even your own family! (DNA is unique to each person, yes you share some DNA with family but you will still have unique features and chemistry.) I also always say, when introducing yourself to the Curly Girl Method, the first thing you should do is look up porosity and figure out which porosity your hair is, because in the long run this will save you SO much money and time! I know every fellow product junkie reading this arti...
