Wear weaves Weaves glam you up. But if you want a full healthy head of hair while you are keeping the weaves and wigs, check out the following tips: Apply moisturiser Get good oil or moisturiser to apply to the hair underneath. Weaved up or not, hair needs moisture – don’t ever deprive it of this. Avoid dirty scalp A dirty scalp with tons of product build up can stunt growth. To avoid this, apply shampoo to your fingers and gently rub your scalp, use a spray bottle to rinse and apply a leave-in conditioner. Right brushes/combs When combing human hair weaves, detangle from tip to root using a wide tooth comb. Synthetic hair wearers can use a bristle brush. When combing or brushing, don’t tug. Too much tension can damage your real hair. Cover hair at night Sleeping with a satin scarf or bonnet will keep weaves from getting tangled and prevent breakage of any hair left out in a partial weave. Stay away from all cotton coverings. If you have braids or twists, you can also add a little moisturiser before covering your hair at night, to penetrate in your real hair. Be mindful of expiration dates Don’t keep weaves hair in your hair past its time. Even if the hair still looks fresh, leaving it in longer than 6-8 weeks can cause matting and hair damage. This goes for both weaves and braids. Give room for rest When taking hair out, give your hair and scalp a rest for a couple of weeks. Make sure to pamper your real hair and give it plenty of care, which includes deep conditioners, trims, and no harsh chemicals. Copyright PUNCH.All rights reserved.
