A big trend in fall and winter are box braids; they were everywhere during Fashion Week and continue to be a fashion must-have. There are many different styles of braids - box braids, micro-braids, fishtail braids, waterfall braids – they look fierce, gives your hair a streamlined and sleek appearance. Box braids are a great protective style, all year long. They provide refuge from having to battle it out with the flat iron or attempting to create the perfect curls; an instant polished, classy look!

It’s a common misconception that braids cannot be washed without slippage…some men and women go two months without washing their scalp! This leads to a build-up of dirt and sebum which clogs hair follicles resulting in dry, flakey scalp. You simply can maintain good hair and scalp health under these conditions.

1. Apply Scalp Renew pre-shampoo treatment to exfoliate and detoxify the scalp of sebum and debris.
2. Dilute Creamy Conditioning Cleanser in a spray bottle filled with water.
3. Mist scalp and braids; root to tip.
4. Rinse thoroughly.
5. Mist hair with Hydrate Quench.
6. Apply Scalp Nourishing Serum to sooth and hydrate scalp; a little goes a long way.
7. Air dry or sit under hooded dryer.
8. Moisturize hair with Nourish & Shine if needed after dry.

Mist hair daily with for rehydration with Quench and use a small amount of Scalp Nourishing Serum into your scalp every other day to combat dryness and maintain scalp health.

Box braids can make for a really great low maintenance protective style. In this style you can give your hair a break and some time away to really grow and flourish, if hair growth is one of your goals.

Love You Hair,
