I'm a British journalist who aims to shed light on some of the misinformation that has engulfed the afro hair industry. I aim to bring you healthy & realistic hair info whether you're natural, have a relaxer, wear a wig, weave or locs. (Often referred to as the Bull S%$! buster of the hair industry)
3 Reasons why a braid/plait-out could be better then a twist-out
Wetter the better but damp hair works too then just add a good helping of oil and nothing else. When dry eg next morning you will have a lovely plait/braid-out!
Ok thanks! I’ll let you know how it turns out tomorrow. Very hot and humid here!
Lovely. Please do.
My hair has color and the ends are very dry because I wear it out in afro a lot. My work keeps me busy and I am usually too tired to plait when I get home. Any tips as to how I can seal in moisture without plaiting every night? What about braiding?
Anything is better than keeping your hair out whilst you sleep. I hope you are at least covering your hair too. If you can is best to get in the habit of plaiting or canerowing before bed you will really see the difference not only to moisture retention but your hair style will look fresher. All the best.

Thank you for this. I always thought just the opposite of plaiting my hair. Should I start with wet or dry hair?
