The proper hair care for braids and weaves

A resounding  question among many women continues to be ‘what is the proper way  to take care of hair braids or weaves?’

First, don’t  be afraid to let your hair rest. This works for both braids and weaves.  The less handling you do with your hair, the better it will be. This  decreases breakage and allows you to keep the length of your hair. Maintaining  that length is the reason why braids and weaves are known as protective  styles.

Once your braids  are finished, you have to be just as careful not to neglect your hair.  Doing nothing to your hair can also cause breakage. It’s important  to treat your braids or weave with the same care you would use on your  natural hair. That means setting aside time for your hair. Some women  like to call it ‘me and my hair time.’

Even when it  is ‘me and my hair time’ there are many common mistakes women make.  Women who suffer from aloepecia or breakage often run into problems  when it comes to the upkeep of their hair. Women who experience those  conditions make the mistake of adding extensions or heavy braids to  their hair.

Remember that  trying to hide your hair problems will not resolve them. By doing so,  it actually adds to the problem and make for more problems in the future.

Here are some  free tips you can do at home to get your hair ready before next visit  to Elom’s.
