Caring for your braids.
General tips to help your set stay neat between visits. Every head and every style is different, so KeshaB's own instructions for your set come first.
At night
Wrap your hair in a satin or silk scarf or bonnet, or sleep on a satin pillowcase. Smooth fabric is gentler on braids than cotton.
Scalp and moisture
Keep your scalp and braids lightly moisturized with a light oil or braid spray. Heavy creams and butters can build up, so a little goes a long way.
Washing
Ask KeshaB how often to wash your set. Wash gently, focus on the scalp, rinse well, and let your braids dry completely before you wrap or tie them up.
Edges and tension
Avoid pulling or tight updos, especially near your hairline. If your style feels too tight or sore, don't wait it out. Text her.
Itch or irritation
If your scalp feels sore, very itchy or irritated, text KeshaB. For anything that looks like a skin or health problem, see a doctor.
Taking them out
Not sure how long to keep your set, or how to take it down safely? Ask her before you start. Don't pull or cut your braids out in a rush.
