Meaning ❉ Tibb Principles, in the gentle realm of textured hair care, represent a holistic approach to understanding and tending to the inherent characteristics of Black and mixed-race hair. This framework guides the growth of knowledge by observing individual hair needs, much like a plant responds to its unique environment, moving beyond surface-level care to a deeper connection with one’s hair vitality. It informs hair care systematization, allowing for the creation of consistent, almost automated routines that align with the hair’s natural inclinations and the body’s rhythms, establishing a predictable pattern of support. Practical application then becomes a gentle implementation of these observations, translating understanding into daily habits, from selecting gentle ingredients that uphold natural balance to adjusting routines with the seasons or personal well-being, ensuring each strand receives mindful attention for sustained strength and grace.
