Where my #team natural sistas at? Question for y'all..

[Nymbus]

How many times a week you wash/condition your hair?
I haven't grown my hair out since I was a little boy and I'm tryna take better care of it and avoid that dry matted look .
Also probably a dumb question but do I really need to be wrapping it up at night it's not crazy long yet just trying to keep it healthy
Thanks

lol I try to wash my hair twice a month.
Keeping ur hair moisturized is the best way to avoid that look. A spray bottle with water or aloe Vera or whatever concoction you make up urself is one of the best ways to keep ur hair moist. Yes, you should wrap ur hair with a silk or silky type wrap at night to avoid unnecessary friction and pulling and tugging on ur hair strands especially if you have fine hair. Or you can do like my favorite naturalista @KOOL-AID and buy a satin pillow case.

Would a loose durag suffice?
I probably been over doing it then once a week didn't seem too bad with a gentle shampoo but I'll dial it back see what happens

Right now every other day or max third day.

But I think it's going to be every day going forward.

I realised the best way to keep my hair moisturised is to put plenty of oil at night.

How can I get my natural naps to pop?

I wash my hair every other day. I've tried different time lengths for washing my hair, twice a month, once a week, everyday etc and every other day works best for me. I use Dove 2-in-1 I also add extra dove conditioner to the 2-in-1 and my hair always feels super soft after I'm done.

You don't have to wrap it up at night if you have silk/satin pillow cases. If you have cotton pillow cases then I would wrap it if I were you.

My ex already put me on to cold water and leave in conditioner she low key shot herself in the foot with that one

If I wear a bun then I can wash my hair twice a week. Otherwise I mainly wash once a week unless I have a sew in.

Hell I should be asking you for tips my hair is dirt dry lol. But I have a skin condition that I have to see a doctor for, so I have to wash my hair at least twice a week but I wet my hair daily in order to put a serum in my hair for softness.

 

[Raava]

twice a month right now. I wanted to do every week but its not practical at the moment. When I was swimming it after I swam which was once or twice a week.

 

[Fun Sized Psycho]

Once a week.
At one point,years ago, I washed my hair every other day, and it broke so much.

 

[Critical Distance]

man, i have a silk pillow case, as well as a silk flat sheet and my shyt still hella nappy.

 

[M'gann]

I was doing twice a week, but I've cut it to once a week.

I wrap my hair 7/10x, but I do have a satin pillow for those lazy days.

Every 1-2 weeks it really depends on your texture, length and porosity. Everyone's hair is different, just keep it clean and moisturized.

If your hair starts feeling mushy or stretches but doesn't curl or bounce back, do a protein treatment and moisturize afterwards.
