Causes:

- Tight braiding, making afro braids and dreadlocks

Solution:
- Mild, non-aggressive cleansing using modern foaming agents. Shampoos with plant-derived surfactants based on coconut oil and natural sugars give the best result.
- Delicate and careful combing. For dry, curly and prone-to-tangling hair, it’s advisable to additionally use leave-in lotions.
- A light massage of the scalp stimulates blood supply to the hair follicles, strengthens the hair and activates its growth.
- Additionally, this simple procedure relieves stress, which also has a beneficial effect on the condition of both hair and skin.
- Daily protection from external damage, primarily against ultraviolet radiation.
- Nourishing and moisturizing substances to restore the strength and elasticity of the hair shaft.
- Essential vitamins and other micronutrients for the flow of biochemical reactions that ensure normal functions of the scalp, hair growth and optimal structure of keratin – the main protein forming the hair.
