How to Get The Most Out of Your Crochet Braid Installation

  • How to Wash Your Hair

    ✓ Use a spray bottle of watered down shampoo and spray your scalp with the mixture.

    ✓ You can lightly massage your scalp with the pads of your fingers.

    Optional: Cowash the crochet braids very gently.Then gently rinse out the mixture you used to clean your scalp (and the cowash in the crochet braids).

    Optional: Condition the crochet braids as you would condition your normal hair, then rinse out the conditioner.

    ✓ Condition your own cornrowed hair by spraying it with a light mixture of leave-in conditioner.

    ✓ Finish by lightly adding a moisturizer to your hair and the added hair and sealing with an oil.


    Note: Focus your attention on your scalp and not the crochet hair.

    Note: To avoid loosening your hair, wash your crochet braids once every two weeks as opposed to once a week or more frequently.
