  • Always keep your scalp well nourished by applying a product that penetrates the scalp.
  • Buy products that are specially formulated for natural hair because they have added moisture to prevent it from drying out.
  • Segment your Afro then twist it into Bantu knots or twisted ponytails to prevent friction when you’re sleeping. This minimises breakage.
  • Wearing a headwrap when you sleep helps the hair absorb more product and prevent making your linen, too.
  • Regular treatment and conditioning of your Afro strengthens it from within.
