How I Clean My Scalp When in Braids or Twists

By
If you are a fan of doing hair styles  extensions ie braids, weaves, cornrows,twists among others, then, you've got to find a way to keep your scalp clean in those styles.

I have never been a fan of braid sprays as most of them tingle, something I don't want. As a result of that, I found the easy route was to just allow the hair to be. However, when dark and lovely released their range do braid care line, I wasn't still enthused about getting a product for my hair when wearing extensions. Thanks to curiosity, I grabbed the dark and lovely scalp wash and the hair refresher to try. I must say that these made cleaning my scalp and keeping it fresh very easy.

Here's a demo of how I clean my scalp when in braids or twists . The same routine applies to when wearing weaves.

In case you have relaxed hair and wondering if you can use chebe powder the answer is a yes.




All you need is to be able to plait your hair or twist up. You can also use cornrows.
To prepare the chebe mixture, add a few tablespoon full to a creamy product. I usually recommend your moisturizer or butter for a good hold.

Shampoo and condition your hair well and apply the chebe mixture. Plait up the hair and leave it for at least 7 days before reapplying the chebe mixture.

When you are ready to wash out, which could be in a month or whenever you want, just shampoo the hair and condition as usual.

You can use the mixture again for another couple of weeks.

In case you need chebe powder or chebe oil, call or whatsapp 0541458372.

I've heard ladies complain about the forever Claire Skin care products  not working for them. Well, I nearly became one until I tweaked how I use it and since then, it's been a jolly good ride.
I started using the Forever Claire products in July 2013 or so. What I've been doing is to using a cleanser first before applying any of the products. Well, I discovered the reason why the product didn't seem to be working well on its own.

When using the cleanser, I'll dab a bit of cotton in it to clean my face. Apparently, it wasn't the cleanser that was doing the work, it was the cotton. The cotton was getting rid of dead cells by acting as an "exfoliating" material. It was cleaning the skin surface.
