For a year now I've been maintaining Virgin hair just to allow it to grow before I relax it.
My natural hair
It's very painful to make and difficult to maintain. I wash my hair every two weeks and stretch it every month.
All this I have to do to ease the pains. African hair texture especially Nigerians are different from the others.
So I went to the salon to do the usual to my hair. Here's all I did;
I with the help of the hair stylist, loosened the previous braids. After each braid she combed it to avoid it from tangling
After loosening it, I went to wash it with natural hair products. I used warm water to wash it twice.
The hairstylist then applied leave in conditioner and left it for a while.
I set for the dryer. In twenty minutes I was done drying my hair.
I came out, waited for the stretcher to heat up before she started dividing my hair into small cuts and stretching it.
