Take A Break In Between Braids To Regrow Your Edges
In this short video, I explain why it is important to take a break in between braid hair styles to give your hair and edges time to recover and benefit from treatment with Anoint Hair Growth Oil.
Braids are a popular and stylish hairstyle that can last for several weeks or even months. However, keeping your hair in braids for an extended period can also have some drawbacks, especially if you're trying to grow your hair. One way to mitigate this is by taking breaks in between braids.
Taking breaks in between braids is essential to maintaining healthy hair growth. Braids can be a great protective style, but keeping your hair in braids for an extended period can cause tension and strain on your scalp, which can lead to breakage and even hair loss. To prevent this, it's essential to take breaks in between braids to give your hair and scalp a chance to rest and recover.
Here are some tips for taking breaks in between braids to help grow your hair:
1. Don't keep your hair in braids for too long: It's essential to avoid leaving your hair in braids for too long. Experts recommend that you keep your hair in braids for no longer than six to eight weeks at a time. Keeping your hair in braids for longer than this can cause tension and strain on your scalp, which can lead to breakage and hair loss.
2. Moisturize your hair regularly: Moisturizing your hair regularly is critical to maintaining healthy hair growth. This is especially important when you're taking a break from braids. Make sure to moisturize your hair with a leave-in conditioner or oil to prevent breakage and keep your hair hydrated.
3. Protect your hair at night: It's essential to protect your hair while you sleep. Use a satin or silk pillowcase, or secure your hair in a satin bonnet to prevent breakage and keep your hair from drying out.
4. Avoid tight hairstyles: Tight hairstyles can cause tension and strain on your scalp, which can lead to breakage and hair loss. Avoid tight hairstyles like ponytails and braids while you're taking a break from braids.
In conclusion, taking breaks in between braids is essential to maintaining healthy hair growth. Make sure to follow these tips to keep your hair healthy and growing while you're taking a break from braids. Remember that healthy hair takes time and patience, but with the right care and attention, you can achieve your hair growth goals.
