How to properly prepare your for , Cornrows & Twists

Step 1: Moisturize & Prepare Your Hair

If your hair is mostly dry, breaks easily, and has a hard time staying moisturized, it is important to prepare your hair before washing.

First, section your hair into several sections and detangle your hair using a water -based detangling product. After carefully and gently detangling, apply coconut oil from scalp to tip. Allow the oil to penetrate your hair a few hours before you wash your hair. This method strengthens and revitalizes your hair. If your ends are split or damaged, clip or trim your hair

before installing braids to prevent added damage.

Step 2: Cleanse Your Hair

Next, give your scalp a good scrub using a sulfate-free shampoohttp://www.afrohagen.dk/webshop. This helps remove all the dirt and any residue that might be left in your hair, so your scalp is fresh and clean for braids. Use apple cider vinegar to close your cuticles and keep moisture in.

Step 3: Deep Condition Your Hair

Next, deep condition your crown. Allow the conditioner to sit in your hair for about 20 to 30 minutes before rinsing it out with cold water. You can also sit under a dryer. This will give your hair strands extra slip and aid the installation.

Step 4: Detangle Your Hair

Some of the pain experienced during hair braiding is caused by tangled hair. Therefore, it is important that your hair is thoroughly detangled before all braided are done. For braids, finger-detangling your hair is not enough. You should use a medium tooth and detangle your hair from the tip and work your way up to the roots. You can also try and make your own detangling spray! Use a blow-dryer to aid with the detangling process.

Step 5: Go Get Your Braids

Lastly, one of the most important things you must do is to come to stylist at AFROHAGEN SALON to install your braids (if you are not doing them yourself). Make sure you use someone you can trust to care for your hair, and someone who is experienced with braided hairstyles. Also, do not enlist a hair stylist that is heavy-handed or braids too tightly! This exactly the package will be offered at SALON AFROHAGEN http://www.afrohagen.dk

With good installation and proper maintenance, you can rock your protective braided hairstyles for up to 8 weeks.
