Expert tips to keep your braids looking fresh and your hair healthy.
Washing
Wash your braids every 1-2 weeks with a sulfate-free shampoo. Focus on the scalp and let water run through the braids. Pat dry with a microfiber towel.
Night Care
Wrap your braids in a satin or silk scarf or use a satin pillowcase to prevent frizz and maintain moisture. This protects your edges too!
Moisturizing
Keep your scalp and braids moisturized with lightweight oils like jojoba or argan oil. Apply to scalp and braids 2-3 times per week.
Gentle Handling
Avoid pulling, tugging, or excessive manipulation. When styling, be gentle with your edges and use soft hair ties or scrunchies.
Duration
Most braids last 6-8 weeks. If you notice excessive frizz, loose braids, or scalp irritation, it's time for maintenance or removal.
Your Natural Hair
After removal, give your hair a deep conditioning treatment. Allow your scalp to rest before your next protective style.
