In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Always start from the ends of your hair first; never comb straight down from the roots. Avoid using brushes, as they will only make your hair frizzy. Lastly, avoid combing your hair every day; detangle it when necessary with your fingers. Excessive combing will break your hair off. Make sure your hair is slightly damp before you detangle. Hair is very vulnerable when wet, so if you just washed it, let it dry a little first. Let your hair air-dry a little first, then gently blow dry your hair using a comb attachment. This will reduce the amount of pulling and tugging, which can lead to breakage. Comb attachments can also help speed up the drying process for tightly coiled natural hair. Comb attachments help stretch and straighten natural curls, so they're great if you plan on using a flat iron after drying. Instead of air drying, you can also sit under a dryer. Add the spray to your hair while it is still wet; this will help make it more effective. When styling your hair, hold the curling iron or flat iron slightly open while passing it over your hair. This way, you will avoid tugging and pulling your hair, which can lead to breakage Try to limit heat styling to two times a month maximum. Try to use the lowest temperature possible and avoid going too hot. Heat protectant sprays can only do so much. Opt for ceramic flat irons over metal ones. They will be gentler on your hair. Heat protectants come in many forms, other than sprays, including: shampoo, conditioners, creams, and serums. Tight ponytails and tight braids can look chic, but they also put a lot of stress on your hair and scalp. Overtime, they can create crimps and breakage in hair. They can also stress the hair follicles, and cause thinning along the hairline. Braids, cornrows, and weaves should not hurt. If they start to hurt, they are too tight, and are damaging your hair. Avoid using rubber bands when styling your hair, as they can cause tears and breakage. Instead, use a ponytail holder without a metal clip. They are much better at protecting your natural hair against heat styling and outdoor elements. Glued-in weaves can rip out your natural hair upon removal, thus damaging it. If you do choose a glued-in weave, you can protect your natural hair by placing a stocking cap over it, then gluing the weave onto the stocking cap. If you are using a weave, visit your stylist every 2 to 3 weeks to ensure that it stays tight. A loose weave can tug on your hair and damage it. Change your weave every 1 and 3 months. Let your hair rest for a few weeks after two consecutive weaves. Try to get your hair relaxed professionally. If you do it at home, read the instructions carefully to prevent any damage. You should only apply relaxer to new growth, and never to hair that has already been relaxed. If you apply relaxer to previously relaxed hair, you will over-process it and damage it. Also, never leave the relaxer on the hair too long; this will cause serious damage and possible hair loss. When relaxing your hair, add some natural oil, like olive oil, to previously relaxed hair. This way, you won't accidentally over-process it. You can also use a conditioner or a pre-relaxer treatment to protect previously relaxed strands if you'd prefer to not use oil. Some stylists will recommend a touch-up every 6 weeks; that unnecessary, and actually very bad for your hair. You should get a touch-up every 2 to 3 months. Look at the ingredients: if it has too many long chemical names, try to stay away from it. This is especially important if you are using high-stress hairstyles, such as weaves, cornrows, and braids. While fashionable, these styles put a lot of strain on your hair. Let your hair go natural for a week or two in between styles so that it can relax. If you must do something with your hair, consider wrapping a scarf or headband around it, or adding in a cute hair clip.
Summary: Comb carefully using a wide tooth comb. Consider using a comb attachment when blow-drying your hair. Avoid heat styling when possible, and use a lower temperature and a heat protectant spray when you do. Avoid using high-stress hairstyles for long periods of time. Choose sewn-in weaves over glued-in weaves. Use caution when relaxing your hair, and only do it once every 2 to 3 months. Let your hair go natural every once in a while for a few weeks.

Problem: Article: This may be clearly outlined in your company policy, or you may have to determine it based on comparisons of other employees in similar working positions. Keep in mind that if your employee is covered by one of the laws discussed in Part 1, you may have to adjust accordingly. If the absent employee has demonstrated that he missed work because of a recurrent health problem, a disability, a death in the family, or jury duty, and particularly, and if he has provided documentation, such as a doctor's note or note from the court, then the employee has a legitimate reason. In this case, it is unlikely that you will need to take any disciplinary action. However, you can ask the employer to provide notice of when and how often he or she will need to take off work if, for example, the absences are related to a health problem. While it is not appropriate to ask for information or details about any diagnosis, it is fair to ask for documentation from the doctor so that you can plan around the needs of the employee. Be aware that what constitutes a legitimate excuse may be different in different situations. Take each reason on a case-by-case basis. If your employee has an explanation that you believe, and evidence to back it up, then give them the benefit of the doubt. You don't want your employee to feel as though he is distrusted and constantly needs to defend himself, as this can result in stress and dissatisfaction for the employee. If your employee does not have good explanations or evidence for his absence, continue with steps to address the issue. Take some time to review the employee's performance and attendance history. If the employee has been with the company for several years and has been a stellar employee in terms of performance and attendance, then a new pattern of absence likely has a legitimate reason, or could indicate that the employee is no longer happy in his job.
Summary:
Determine whether or not an employee has a pattern of absenteeism. Find out whether the absences were legitimate. Review past attendance records.
