Use a Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner: Choose a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner suitable for braided hair. Focus on the scalp when shampooing and concentrate the conditioner on the braids to keep them hydrated.

Hydrate with Oil: Apply lightweight oil to your scalp and along the length of the braids to moisturize and prevent dryness. Use oils like jojoba, coconut, or argan oil, but avoid heavy oils that may weigh down the braids.

Avoid Excessive Pulling or Tugging: Refrain from pulling or tugging on the braids, as this can cause stress on your hair and scalp, leading to breakage or discomfort.

Protective Styling at Night: Cover your braids with a satin or silk scarf or use a satin pillowcase while sleeping to minimize friction and prevent frizzing.

Keep Scalp Clean and Healthy: Use a scalp tonic or witch hazel on your scalp between washes to maintain cleanliness and soothe any itching or irritation.

Regular Touch-Ups: If you do a boho box braids style, it can last around 6-8 weeks, please schedule touch-up sessions to fix any loose or frayed braids and maintain the integrity of the style. Avoid exceeding 8 weeks to prevent tangling of natural hair.
