I am planning on getting the twist this weekend and would like to hear some of you ladies braid regime. For example:
1. How long do you usually keep your braids in?
2. How often do you wash your hair?
3. Do you dilute your shampoo and conditioner?
4. What braid spray do you use?
5. What method do you use to take out your braids?
6. How long do you wait before you perm your hair?
To prepare my hair for getting braids, I have been doing the following:
Washing and deep conditioning every 3 days with Nexxus Therapee and alternating between Dudley's Hair Rebuilder and Mizani Moisturefuse. Air drying with the ponytail method and using S-Curl Activator, WGO and different oils such as (jojoba, vitamin E, olive oil and kemi oyl). I have not permed now for 11 weeks. I want to keep the braids in for 6-8 weeks, remove for 2 weeks and rebraid again for 6-8 weeks before putting in another perm. Please let me know if this is possible and what is your braid regime. I have not experience any hair shedding (which is quite shocking to me) because usually after the 8th week without a perm, I shed like crazy. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I look forward to a brand new year with you ladies. I have gotten so much knowledge for you guys more than any experienced stylist I know. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU. May this year brings us not only new hair length but good health, life and strength.
