This week we’re highlighting our favorite #longhairdontcare vloggers and learning what they do to retain length on their locks.
A natural since 2010 with a relatively kinky texture, Tiajonay shows us her top keys for length retention, as well as hair care tips.
- Moisturize hair when you notice dryness or before you prepare to style your curls.
- In-between styling, do not comb or re-braid your locks to keep hair manipulation as minimal as possible.
- Comb or finger detangle your hair only when it is wet. This reduces breakage. (Learn more about detangling.)
- Keep hair stretched to reduce tangles and knots, which will, in turn, reduce breakage.
- Use heat-protecting spray if you decide on flat ironing your hair.
Keep up with all the #longhairdontcare tips we highlight this week.
