AFTER BRAID CARE​

​

• Moisturize your scalp daily with a mixture of water, your favorite leave-in conditioner, and your essential oils.

• Relieve dry scalp by applying a light oil or hair food to your scalp.

• Massage your scalp daily for blood flow. Be gentle and apply a light circular motion.

• Keep braids installed for 4-6 weeks. Do not keep braids longer than 2 months.

• Protect your braids while you sleep at night by covering your hair with a satin cap or headscarf.

• Minimize tension and hairline breakage by avoiding over-manipulation of braids (especially the first week). Also, avoid constant changes.

• Wash braided hair at least once every 2 weeks (optional). Avoid “roughing up” your braids in the process.

• Touch up your Braids after 3 or 4 weeks to freshen up your hairstyle and prevent new growth from hanging on thin strands.
