How to Care for Cornrows

Hello I'm Jacqueline on behalf of expertvillage.com. In this clip I will be telling you how to care for your cornrows. You could wash your cornrows by putting a stocking cap or a net on your head and then wetting the head thoroughly and pressing the shampoo into the braids as much as possible. You want to make sure that you rinse thoroughly. Your hair would need oil in it so it would not dry out and cause damage. Depending on how much oil you typically apply to your hair you could use a light spray oil shin or you could apply a more thickly to the scalp or you could use a honey rinse on it. You could see the clip called home made hair receipts to learn how this is made. At night were satin or silk caps on your head. If you are not able to keep a good cap on your head all night long a satin or silk pillow case would be ideal. For a itching scalp you could use braids spray.
