Ywigs Human Crochet Braids Maintenance Guide

                        Boho Box Braids Maintenance Guide

🧴 Scalp Health:

Keep your scalp clean for healthy braids. Wash your scalp every 1-2 weeks using a sulfate-free shampoo. This helps maintain your braids while keeping your scalp fresh.

💧 Drying:

After washing, gently blot your braids with a towel to remove excess water. Avoid harsh rubbing to prevent frizz and loosening. Let your braids air dry completely. If in a hurry, use a low heat setting on your hairdryer and keep a safe distance.

💦  Moisturizing:

Nourish your scalp regularly to prevent dryness and maintain the appearance of your braids. Use a water-based moisturizer or natural oils like coconut, jojoba, or shea butter. Apply with care to keep your braids neat.

🌙  Bedtime Care:

Protect your braids while sleeping. Use a satin or silk scarf or pillowcase to minimize friction and prevent frizz. This helps your braids look great in the morning.

⏳ Maintenance Routine:

Your boho box braids can last 6-8 weeks, with periodic touch-ups depending on care and hair growth speed. Schedule touch-up sessions to manage frizz, unraveling, and new scalp growth. Avoid exceeding 8 weeks to prevent tangling of natural hair.

🌀 Caring for Human Hair Curls:

Keep your human hair curls tangle-free by gently detangling them with your fingers daily.

Refresh the curls 1-2 times a week by applying a mixture of leave-in conditioner, hair growth oil, or your preferred hair oil with water. Be generous with the application.

Brush out wet curls gently to maintain their shape.

💧 Washing & Conditioning (Gentle Routine):

Use a sulfate‑free shampoo and hydrating conditioner when you wash your crochet hair.

Focus shampoo on your scalp/roots and let the lather run down the hair; avoid scrubbing the length to reduce frizz and shedding.

Wash every 1–2 weeks (or sooner after workouts/swimming) to prevent buildup and dryness.

💦 Moisturizing & Detangling:

Lightly spritz with water + leave‑in conditioner or a light leave‑in mist to keep hair soft.

Detangle with a wide‑tooth comb or fingers — start at the tips and work your way up to prevent breakage.

Avoid heavy oils and thick creams near the roots — they attract dirt and weigh hair down.

🌙 Nighttime Protection:

Wrap hair with a satin or silk scarf/bonnet at night. This reduces friction, frizz, and tangles while you sleep.

Satin pillowcases also help if a scarf isn’t comfortable.

🌀 Refreshing Texture:

For curly or wavy crochet hair, refresh curls daily by misting with water + curl‑defining spray and finger‑shaping.

✂️ Styling & Heat:

If you use heat tools, always use a heat protectant and keep temperatures low. Too much heat can alter your curl pattern and shorten the life of the hair.

💦 After Swimming or Sweat:

Rinse with fresh water and apply a light leave‑in mist before and after to maintain moisture.
