Today i plaited my hair all over, washed it without conditioner, and the plaits have set rather nicely. However, I need to sleep on them tonight without them coming all unravelled and messy. I've heard tights (pantyhose) is the best stuff, but would I be better in my beenie? Any advice would be really appreciated!
Wrap your head in a silk or polyester scarf at night to protect your braids. You can also cut off the foot from an old pair of pantyhose and pull that over your head (not over your face, or you'll look like your trying to rob a 7-11)! You should also wear it when you wash your braids, to keep them from getting fuzzy. Dilute the shampoo with water and squirt it over the braids, gently massage in and rinse, rinse rinse! Good luck!
