1. Make sure the hair is clean
Before opting for braids, locs, or two-strand twists on your locks, ensure they are in optimal condition by regularly cleansing, conditioning, and moisturizing.
2. Moisturize the scalp
Regularly moisturizing hair and scalp is crucial to avoid an itchy or flaky scalp when wearing braids.
3. Wrap the hair at night
To maintain long-lasting braids, wrap them at night using a simple technique.
4. Don’t pull the hair too much
Avoid damaging the scalp and causing abrasions by being gentle with braids.
5. Keep it lowkey
Accessories and colors can add a unique touch to braided hairstyles.
Consider bold colors like burgundy or bubblegum pink for a statement look.
Try fishtail braids for a trendy and Instagram-worthy style.
