Summer is the perfect time to sport protective styles like box braids, faux locs, and various braided styles. These looks are not only stylish but also protect your natural hair from the harsh sun and environmental stressors. However, maintaining your hair's health under these styles is crucial. Here’s a comprehensive hair care regimen featuring the Hydrate Me Please product line that ensures your hair stays moisturized, healthy, and grows beautifully throughout the summer.
Pre-Installation Prep
Before installing any protective style, it’s important to prepare your hair properly:
-
Deep Conditioning Treatment: Use the Moisture Lock Conditioner. Apply generously to your hair and either sit under a hair steamer for at least 30 minutes or use our processing caps for the same duration. This deep conditioning treatment helps to infuse moisture and nutrients into your hair, making it strong and resilient.
-
Trim Your Ends: Getting a trim before installing a protective style can significantly reduce breakage during take-out. Removing split ends ensures that your hair is healthy from root to tip.
-
Hydrate Before Braiding: Ensure your stylist applies the Hydrate Me Please Moisture Cream to your hair before starting the braiding process. This step will keep your hair hydrated for the first few days up to a week after the installation.
Post-Installation Maintenance
Maintaining your hair post-installation is just as important as the prep. Follow these steps every 2-3 days to ensure your hair stays moisturized and healthy:
-
Mist Your Hair and Scalp: Use the Hydrate Me Please Refresher Spray. This lightweight spray helps to rejuvenate and hydrate your hair and scalp, keeping it fresh and clean.
-
Apply Moisture Cream: Take a quarter-sized amount (or more if needed) of the Hydrate Me Please Moisture Cream. Melt it in the palms of your hands until it becomes clear, then apply it to the areas where your hair is located. This step ensures your hair remains moisturized and soft under the protective style.
-
Seal with Oil: Apply the Mega-9 Extreme Growth Oil to your scalp. This oil is packed with nutrients that promote hair growth and scalp health. Massage it gently into your scalp to stimulate blood flow and enhance absorption.
Benefits of Following This Regimen
By consistently following this regimen, you’ll experience several benefits:
- Less Breakage: The deep conditioning and regular moisturizing prevent your hair from becoming dry and brittle, reducing breakage during take-out.
- Manageable Takeout: Your hair will be easier to manage and detangle when it’s time to remove the protective style.
- Enhanced Hair Growth: With the combined power of the Hydrate Me Please product line and a healthy lifestyle, many clients experience increased hair growth, often doubling the average rate of ½ inch per month.
