Stop Losing your Beauty and Valuable Time Removing Fusion, Braids, Weaves, Hair Extensions and Dreadlocks!

The popularity of braids, dreadlocks, add on hair / wigs, weaves, natural hair styles, and hair extensions with or without glue is exploding.

The key importance and selling point for the Take Down removal cream is that it is an oil based cream. This key factor allows women to transition easily from wearing braids to a relaxer in the same day.

Most women of color assume that after removing braids or extensions they have to wait 1 week in order to relax or straighten their hair, but because Take Down is a cream- not a spray. and is an oil based product.

It protects the scalp and hair so that a chemical relaxer can be used. Most people or stylists don’t have the time or patience to remove fusion, braids, dreadlocks, weaves or hair extensions the right way. And the average consumer goes to the salon to undo or “take down” a style.

And if the hair stylist does not have proper understanding of how to remove any of these styles, they just pull and tug, which ultimately damages their client’s hair. But now there is a solution.

The Take Down® brand is not only unique, but is the lead product for the removal of all add-on-hair styles in the beauty industry. It is a very strong cross over product, for all types of women and hair textures.

Every one from hollywood,models, entertainers to the everday college student wears some form of hair extensions, braids,and add-on-hair.

Anyone who has removed fusion, hair extensions, weaves that are saturated with bonding glue, or tiny micro-braids, understands the hassle. When removing hair extensions with fusion, braids, weaves or dreadlocks, the hair can become dry and matted together, so it can take hours upon hours to remove these styles. And often, once these styles are removed, unhealthy, broken hair is left behind.

Introducing a new product that helps detangle hair and aids in the fast and easy removal of fusion, braids, hair extensions, weaves and dreadlocks. TAKE DOWN® makes the pain, tangles, knots and damage associated with removing these styles old news.

With TAKE DOWN®, women and men who desire changing their locked hairstyles don’t have to cut their Dreadlocks off any more, they can salvage all that beautiful hair. With TAKE DOWN®, you have no more hair loss, damage or balding. And definitely no more excess fusion adhesive or bonding glue stuck to the hair and scalp.

TAKE DOWN®, THE REVOLUTIONARY HAIR REMOVAL CREAM penetrates through the hair and softens the hair as you comb through it. This natural cream can be a relief from the pain of combing out knots and clumps of tangled or matted hair once you have taken out the extension, braid or dreadlock. This revolutionary process makes removal of braids easy, fast and painless…

TAKE DOWN’S ®, revolutionary and unique selling points sit squarely with its ability to address a strong, yet previously overlooked, need in the hair care market.

Hair Types, Which One Are You?

Hair191 Hair Types, Which One Are You?



If you are like most people you will likely notice a person’s hair and style on first impression. We also notice if a person has thin or thick hair, curly, wavy or straight hair. We may not notice everything around us but when it comes either sex, we instinctively observe our competition or potential future partner.

When it comes to hair, geography plays a large roll as to what type of hair we inherit. For example;

-People of Asian decent have black thick hair. If you were to look under a microscope, you would see that the strand of hair is thick and well rounded. This type of hair usually looks lustrous and straight because of the weight and in some cases blue black in color. It can be quite striking. People with thick hair have approximately 150,000 thick hairs on their head and combing can be challenging to say the least. Leave in conditioners with gentle even pressure are great for this hair type. Also, if you are not using salon quality hair care products, you may have to change out to different brands on a regular basis so that you avoid product build up. Better still, use salon quality products all the time!

- The only other hair that can be thicker than Asian hair is the true red head! Red hair originated in northwest Europe, particularly Scotland. The study of ancient history denotes the early Celtics, known as Caledonians, were very large limbed and had striking red hair. The early Romans described them as a wild people. Today, the red headed people of Scotland still have somewhat of a wild, hot tempered reputation.

-People of European descent can have blonde or dark hair. The fairest blondes tend to come from central Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark. The rest of Europe has predominantly darker hair. Close inspection under a microscope shows that these strands of hair are thinner and round to oval shaped. These types of strands can give you straight or wavy hair. There is not as much weight to this type of hair as the Asians. People with thinner hair strands tend to have approximately 90,000 hair strands. A lot less than their Asian cousins. Volumizing shampoos and conditioners are excellent for this hair type.

-People of African decent have dark, tight, very curly hair. Again, under close inspection under a microscope shows that the hair stands are thin and flat. It is the flatness of the strands that cause the hair to curl right up. There is not much weight to it. The most important thing to watch for, is keeping this type of hair moisturized. The flat thin strands are prone to drying out so a gentle cleanser and moisturizing conditioner are very helpful in keeping the hair natural and soft looking. Care also needs to be taken when combing or brushing because breakage occurs easily with this hair type. Minimize the use of blow driers and curling irons.

Genetically, the dominant hair color is brown. This can mean anything from light to very dark brown, almost black.

With the intermixing of races, it is thought that natural blonde hair will soon die out and that the only option to be blonde is through hair dyes.

If you look at North America, you will see the most diverse hair colors and styles due to the migration of people from all parts of Europe, Russia, Asia, Africa, South America, etc. Some races have dominant genes when it comes to hair type and color. For example, if you have a marriage of Asian with Caucasian, you will almost always have children with dark thick hair. African American and Caucasian couples will generally have children thin dark tight curls. If you wonder about your own hair, a little research into your ancestry will give you some answers.

No matter what your hair type, there are specific needs to keep your hair in good health. A Major part of that being diet! A healthy, natural diet goes a long way in keeping your hair shiny and healthy looking no matter how thin, thick, wavy or straight it may be.

If you’ve ever wondered about your hair type and do not have immediate answers, do some research and you may be surprised at what you find!

Detangling Directives for Children With Dry Hair or From Mixed Cultures

We tend to complain about our children’s hair not growing, breaking constantly, and manageability. With busy schedules we unconsciously neglect their hair and take it for granted until it begins to break like straw.

Yet we seem to take the time each day to moisturize our hands and bodies with lovely creams and moisturizers. We do this because we know that our skin will crack and get rough if it is not cared for. So why don’t we apply this same concept to our children’s hair?

We repeatedly use harsh styling gels or alcohol based hair sprays that dry their hair out immensely. We use relaxers also that tend to dry the hair out also. In addition, their braided or twisted hairstyles tend to be dry and brittle as well. All of these factors cause our children’s hair to tangle and break easily.

The variety of hair textures has an impact on the amount of tangling on a child hair, however hair that is moisturized and hydrated tends to tangle much less than dry and brittle hair. Whether a child has thick hair, coarse hair, curly hair, fine hair or mixed textured hair due to multi-racial parents; it must be cared for in the same manner.

When the hair and scalp are not moisturized with some sort of hair lotion or oil-based cream; the scalp can become extremely dry, rough, irritated and itchy. Sometimes the scalp will begin to form scabs and sores or even crack. Therefore hair growth is reduced due to the scalp being sore and damaged.

And in addition to not caring for our children’s hair externally, many of us do not assure that our children drink enough water to hydrate their bodies internally. Nor do they eat enough green vegetables and fruits to provide their growing bodies with natural vitamins.

The only solution to prevent dry hair is to change our way of thinking. The TAKE DOWN ®, Moisture Restoring Hair lotion is one of top selling products for moms to detangle matted hair. And also for children with multi cultural hair textures. It is a very strong cross over product, for all types of children and hair textures. This product line also offers great maintenance and styling products for ethnic hair.

We must value our children’s hair and stop taking it for granted. Our children should not be forced to wear hair extensions when they become matured adults. Especially if it is as a result of their parents not taking the time to moisturize their hair and scalp with alcohol free hair lotions or oil-based creams. Their God given natural hair is an important part of their self esteem and self worth.

If children wear braids or dreadlocks use leave-in conditioners, oils, or oil-based creams. Shampoo their hair weekly-dust and dirt prevents healthy hair growth. Take the time to massage these moisturizers in their hair 2-3 times a week; it will only take 10 minutes out of your day to care for their hair. Or show them how to massage their own heads after you apply the moisturizers- make it fun for them. That is even easier than moisturizing our hands/bodies daily!

Please incorporate more water in their daily diets, as well as more green vegetables and fruits in their weekly diets.

A good source of vitamins for healthy hair, skin and nails are Vitamin E, A, & D. When you take the time to love your child’s hair it will respond by getting thicker, healthier and longer. And their hair textures will become softer and shinier as well.
