TRANSITIONING NATURAL TIP from napturallycurly How Do I Stop My Transitioning Hair From Shedding/Breaking? First of all, make sure you identify if it’s shedding or breakage. Breakage is normal and happens when your hair snaps off at the point where your natural and relaxed hair meet. And the longer you transition, the more breakage you will probably have. So don’t let it alarm you. You may be able to minimize some of it by using a protein treatment (Aphogee has a great system). Also make sure you are deep conditioning your hair once a week and no less than every other week. I also pre-poo my hair before shampooing. That’s the process of adding conditioner (I use the cheap ones) and/or oil to your hair to strengthen it before you shampoo it. Be sure to keep your ends trimmed. If they are split, that will accelerate the breakage. Having healthy ends will not only minimize breakage, but will make your styles look more polished. If your hair is shedding from the root, that may not necessarily be related to the transition so make sure you seek help from a professional to get more advice. And finally, keep your hair moisturized.
