Nourish your hair with an oil bath (prepoo)The essential step in any afro hair routine Your hair needs to be nourished with oil baths, masks and treatments, but also with a balanced diet.Let’s see why and how to do oil baths, because afro hair lacks sebum and essential fatty acids and they help to fight against dryness and breakage.
Why?
Oil baths coat the hair, covering the hair fiber with a layer that protects it from damage like that of shampoo.
How do you do it?
Separate detangled hair (wet or dry) into sections, distribute your oil bath from root to tip, section by section, massaging well.
.
You can also use a spray bottle: pour in your oil bath and some warm water, shake and apply to your hair. Then, cover your hair in a bonnet, towel, etc. for a better effect.
Leave it in for at least 45 minutes, during which time you can work out, tidy up, run errands - the time will fly by!
You can even leave it in overnight!
To rinse out your oil bath:
It is important to choose a gentle shampoo that won’t strip your hair and cancel out all the benefits of the oil bath. Two washes are necessary to emulsify the water/oil/shampoo mixture, so take the opportunity to massage your scalp again and activate microcirculation. Don't focus too much on the lengths, this will protect them for several days.
