How do I go about treating my natural hair after taking out a sew in weave?

I know how to take out the weave but my question is how do I go about treating my hair? My hair is in desperate need of a shampoo and probably a deep conditioner, I can't make it to a salon till my stylist gets back in about two weeks from vacation. So I will be doing this myself, whats the best way about treating my hair after taking out a sew in weave? (step by step instructions, shampoo brands, etc.)

After taking out your weave, follow these steps.





1) Comb your hair out. I would recommend using a detangling spray if it has lots of knots.


2) Pre-poo using a conditioner. I like Dark %26amp; Lovely or Organic Root Stimulator Hair Mayonnaise. Just rub the conditioner in and cover with a shower cap for 30 minutes. Comb through.


3) Rinse out and shampoo with any brand except Pantene! I recommend At One Hydrating Shampoo or Johnson's Baby Shampoo. Wash until clean!


4) Depending on how soft your hair is, you may want to add a handful of bottled conditioner and rinse out. I wouldn't use leave in conditioner on natural hair.


5) Towel dry excess water and use a moisturising lotion like Soft'n'Free to blow dry. Don't add too much as lotion + heat = hair frying!


6) Grease your scalp with a petroleum based product like At One Root Revitaliser. I know petroleum based products are thought to be bad, but for freshly washed natural hair, they are quite good. If you don't like them, ORS Carrot Oil is good.


7) Style as usual!How do I go about treating my natural hair after taking out a sew in weave?
When I took out my braids I followed these steps.





Be careful becuase you can pull out more of your hair.





Well first do not comb your hair with a regular comb.





Get a wide tooth comb





Start combing at the ends and move towards the roots.





Comb gently





Part your hair into four sections





Depending on the shampoo you use.





I use a beer shampoo it is really good as a sealant and it is great for untangling





Shampoo your hair about 2 times





I use a honey conditioner





Yea I said honey





It is a great conditioner





This process relaxes your hair





My hair is in great shape but I would not do the braids for a long period of time because it in the end kinda damaged my hair. From the pulling it up in a ponytail it caused me to pull some of my hair out.





But I have a youtube video about the shampooing process and honey conditioner.

I hope this helps
