Hi ladies,
I really enjoy the results I get when I undo my Bantu Knots or Cornrows. I have done both one time only because by day 3-4 my hair starts breaking. It looks so pretty but then my hair breaks and it makes it all not worth it.
I have used Aphogee Style & Wrap Mouse & Proclaim Curl and Wave Conditioning Activator Gel w/ my leave in moisturizer Ion Curl Solutions Curl Defining Hair Styling Creme. I really loved how settings both didn't give me flakes. Both made sure my hair wasn't crispy but as the days went on, my hair started breaking. I just want something I can put on my damp hair that will hold the style longer then a day and not cause breakage while I wear it for a week (I only wash n set 1x a week - all my hair can handle!)
My relaxed hair doesn't hold a curl unless something makes it
! Therefore I have never been able to go back and redo the braid or knot. The setting stuff makes it not possible. Like I cannot comb thru my hair without breakage once it is set with either the Gel or the Mousse. I hope I am making sense...
Can anyone recommend a setting product to put on my damp hair when either conrow setting or bantu knot setting? Or something maybe I should ADD when using either of those products to prevent breakage?
Please note that when I wear both styles, you know after unraveling them, all I do is put on a lil oil or sheen spray, style and then when I go to bed put on a scarf.
TY for suggestions!

P.S. I also want this thread to be a PJs setting product dream. So even if you don't do bantu's or cornrows, STILL SHARE what you use when you do set your hair!
