Tips For Beautiful Micro Braids
Micro braids (also known as invisible braids) and cornrows are two ways to grow and manage your hair. Microbraids are more effective and beautiful. Unlike cornrows, you can wear microbraids for three months without any risk to hair.
Long hair has a greater chance of breaking than short hair when hair is in tiny separate braids. Therefore, short hair is more suitable for microbraids.
How to pretreat your hair before getting micro braiding
- Hot oil treatment since it replaces damaged and dry hair at the source.
- Do hair moisturizing and conditioning.
- Clip the hair ends.
Remember
(1) Say no to mini-micro braids, in case you have brittle hair.
(2) Consult a professional and seasoned braider.
(3) Get the style that your hair strands can bear without putting lot of weight on your hair. Overweight causes breakage.
(4) You can do braiding with a superior quality synthetic fiber. Locking may occur if the curls are too tight in case you use human hair.
(5) Braids should not be too tiny or too tight.
(6) Do not leave braids in
for more than 2˝ months. They might lock up on the hair, leading to thinning or severe breakage.
(7) Do not use thick and heavy shampoos, conditioners and pomades, as they may trap in the braids and the scalp may turn flaky.
(8) Use light oil for scalp.
Post braiding hair care
- Regular visits to a professional are necessary.
- Keep scalp moisturized and conditioned. Protein treatment should follow a good conditioner that rebuilds hair follicle restoring elasticity.
- Drink plenty of water.
- Get an occasional scalp massage. You should oil your scalp and hair once a week. This will keep the scalp and hair moisturized. Heavy scalp conditioners can leave unsightly remains in the folds of the braids.
- Your diet should be healthy.
- Avoid stress
- You must have plenty of sleep.
