Ladies with Braids

[mj11051]

Do you do a hot oil treatment to your hair?

I have had braids on and off for the past 10 years (have them now, actually) and have never done a hot oil treatment.

not while in braids,maybe in between braiding sessions. I would be too afraid the oil would cause a buildup in my hair which can only be problematic.

I don't either. Not because I'm afraid but I like to keep things simple and to stick to the same regimen I'm on when not in braids. So I don't add anything I wasn't doing before, and oil treatments are not something I do.

I don't do hot oil treatments but instead use Indian oils 2times a day on my scalp! I have excessivley dry scalp for some reason, which by the way has always been that way since I was a child.

I oil my scalp twice a day in the morning and at night.

Reason being is when I oil my scalp with the yarn braids in the morning by late afternoon around 6pm my scalp is like I just washed it and it's super dry again.

I know alot of ladies can't do what I do but my scalp is like a sponge literally! And never had any problems oiling so frequently.

the oils are really helping with the tightness I feel when my scalp is dry and my actual hair growth!
