Hair Care Tips for Braids 🌸
I always tell my clients these few steps for maintaining your human hair boho:
• Use minimal product. All you really need is water, a good leave in conditioner, & mousse when necessary.
• Braid into one braid at night followed by wrapping in a silk scarf and covering with a silk bonnet.
• Finger comb through or lightly brush if beginning to look to frizzy or tangling
• use silk scrunchies or soft bands when tying.
Boho braids in general are high maintenance but, can be maintained with these simple steps 🫶🏽
Boho braids require special attention to maintain their beauty and health. One of the key aspects of caring for your braids is ensuring you use the right products. Hydration is vital; a light leave-in conditioner can help keep your hair moisturized without weighing it down. Avoid heavy creams or oils, as they can lead to buildup. At night, wrapping braids in a silk scarf or using a silk bonnet creates a protective barrier against friction and helps prevent frizz. This small step can extend the life of your style significantly. Additionally, using silk scrunchies or soft bands is essential when tying your braids to avoid snags that can cause breakage. Regularly checking your braids for tangling and frizz is also important. Lightly finger combing or using a wide-tooth comb aids in detangling without causing damage. If your braids feel too tight, it's advisable to loosen them gently to prevent any discomfort or stress on your scalp. Overall, while boho braids may seem high-maintenance, these simple steps will help you enjoy your look longer and keep your hair healthy. Remember to stay informed about the latest trends and techniques in braiding for optimal results!
