Hair and Cardio

Options
Ladies,

I am asking this question on behalf of my wife. She just got her hair done and she is upset because the can no longer do cardio.

Background. She is a black woman who wears a natural and just got her hair pressed.

QUESTION:

LADIES: If you are in my wife's situation how do you make sure you get your cardio done or make sure you are at a caloric deficit without starving yourself?

Thanks ladies who like to keep your hair looking nice. Your responses will be appreciated.

    I posted this on the news feed too, so sorry for the dup.
    I have a Brazilian keratin treatment. It allows me to do cardio and still keep my hair looking nice.
    It is slightly pricey, but it is worth the convenience to me.

    Hey Corey,

    In response to your question;
    Unfortunately there is no way to get the work out in you want without a little sacrifice to your do - the key is maintenance. Unfortunately those of us black women who enjoy staying physically fit require a little more work in the hair dept. My hair looks good in that photo but it requires a lot of upkeep and trust me it doesn't always look like that :-). So let ur wife know she's not alone in that struggle - the question becomes "Are you willing to make the sacrifice?" I know I am :-)

    This may not have answered your question and I apologize but it's my take on that old age question. Oh yeah and thanks for adding me!
