Take Care of that Hair Under There!

Just because you have extensions in doesn't mean you should neglect your real hair under there!
Wearing virgin hair extensions should motivate you to care for your natural hair as well as those expensive additions.

Even if you don't feel comfortable with thoroughly washing & conditioning your braided hair underneath (because its a lot of work and absolutely MUST be done correctly to prevent mildew) you should still keep your hair and scalp well hydrated.

*Top 5 Best Scalp Oils*

1.) Extra Virgin Olive Oil- Yes the one that you cook with! This oil has the ability to penetrate the hair shaft. It nourishes, moisturizes, and conditions hair while relieving dry scalp (dandruff).

2.) Jojoba Oil- Great for all hair types, especially dry or damaged hair. This oil is the closest to the scalp's natural secreted oils, therefore very beneficial in moisturizing both hair and scalp.

3.) Virgin Coconut Oil- With it's antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, this oil is great for treating and preventing scalp problems. It's great for softening & conditioning strands, as well as retaining length.

4.) Grapeseed Oil- Odorless, with a non- greasy texture, this oil is perfect if you are afraid of weighing your hair down. It's easily absorbed, moisturizing & nourishing to reduce brittleness.

5.) Sweet Almond Oil- This natural oil is rich in vitamins A, B1, B6, and E. It contains antioxidants that promote circulation in the scalp, creating strong and healthy hair growth. 

All of these oils are very light and can be easily applied between your wefts using an applicator bottle (which can be bought at any beauty supply store).

Target the oil application directly to your scalp to avoid getting it on your extensions. Remember to squeeze the bottle very lightly, when it comes to oil, a little goes a long way!
