Wearing braided hair allows black women to enjoy switching their hairstyles and have a different look. It’s also a protective hairstyle that gives them a break from constant combing. That said, how can one make them last long after installation? Here’s a guide on how to maintain your braided hair.
How to Maintain Your Braided Hair
- Saturate your hair with shampoo. Concentrate on the scalp and roots. Gently massage the shampoo, and work on individual braids because they’ll have product buildup and dirt.
- After, washing out the shampoo and dampening the hair, don’t dry it completely. If your hair still has whitish product build-up, gently rub it out using a towel.
- Spray your hair with leave in conditioner gently and then oil your scalp. Gently massage after application.
- If you have a mouse, generously spray it around your head to lock in the hair and prevent it from freezing. It’ll give your hair an overall shine.
- Once done, tie your hair using a satin scarf to let everything settle.
If you’ve been wondering how to maintain your braids and make them last longer, following these steps will help you. It’s time to maximize your money’s worth and enjoy your braids for longer.
