hey you guys welcome back to my channel I'm t'keyah if you don't know that go
ahead and hit that red subscribe button so for this video I wanted to come on
here and show you guys a couple of little tips and tricks that I use to
refresh my braids the roots of my braids now the last time actually had box
braids was probably three years ago which is crazy but I got my hair done
for a creative project that I was working on with express so if you guys
haven't checked that video out I put a lot of love into that video that I
created directed it I styled it okay I did location scouting so I hope you guys
have watched that video if you haven't please go check it out I will link it in
the description box or it'll be up up there somewhere so I want to show you
guys how i refresh my braids and get them looking nice and sleek without
those harsh gels and the products just filled with chemicals and also how you
can kind of promote growth and just keep your hair moisturized under the braids
so I'm just gonna take some hot really warm water from my spray bottle and
spritz that all over the pieces that are frizzy and all over my scalp really and
just give myself a nice Scout massage
so because I'm only keeping these braids in for a few weeks as opposed to a few
months I don't feel the need to actually clarify my scalp with like a shampoo or
actually get all of my hair wet these birds would be so heavy it's still
so good so what this is doing is it's kind of breaking up any of the kind of
dirt and dead skin and stuff that's on my scalp it's kind of breaking that up
and loosening it up which feels amazing and it's also hydrating my scalp water
is just like the best thing to use all of my color applicator bottles are used
up right now with different oil mixes but I have in this one mainly olive oil
I also have some hemp seed oil and some tea tree oil and that tea tree is great
to help like clarify your scalp olive was amazing at moisturizing your scalp
neem oil they promote hair growth
I'm going to take that same oil a good amount in my hand and I'm going to kind
of run it down the length of the braids focusing on where my hair you know
actually is I don't have to go down to the bottom of the braids because my hair
is not down there so I moisturize my hair with water with
warm water open up those cuticles and now I am sealing the deal with this oil
concoction that tea tree oil is making my scalp just feel super refreshed so
that's like key you know find oils that are anti bacterial and ones that kind of
help clarify your scalp so any of those oils that typically are in shampoos
clarifying shampoos you can use those essential oils in your oil mixes so the
product that I'm going to be using to seal in that water and then the oil
mixture is this nappy butter it's a moisturizing hair and body butter by
mahogany soul I love this stuff and braids protective styles locks this is
the perfect time to use a butter like this so the ingredients are mango butter
which you guys have seen my mango butter deep conditioner mango butter is amazing
my hair really loves mango butter and also has coffee butter in here avocado
butter I will link it in the description box so make sure you go check it out so
I'm gonna take some of the butter you guys don't even understand how good it
smells alright I want to start with this one so I'm taking the butter and because
it has such beneficial ingredients I don't mind actually getting this onto
my scalp I take some around my actual natural hair and then I just start to
twist
and then I take some more of the butter and I go down the length of the braid
where my natural hair is and at the same time I'm still kind of twisting I pretty
much did all the twisting that I needed to do all right so I am halfway done
with my hair as you can see there's a huge difference between this frizzy
loose side and then this side so all right so I'm going to go finish it and
I'll be back
all right so it's the next day and I wanted to let you guys know that I
didn't sleep with my hair in those two pigtails for some reason it was causing
a lot of stress on my scalp on this side I want to lay my edges for you guys
because I've been talking about you know not using conventional gels with alcohol
and those nasty ingredients in them and just products in general like that
around your scalp in your edges so what I do is I take a low yes you already
know I have several album videos so I have some out of here literally just
wipe the aloe on to the area I'm just going to you know use a toothbrush an
old toothbrush aloe is also amazing for your scalp so this is just like in
all-in-one treatment really
okay so my edges have pretty much dry as you can see they can still move like
they're not just snatched to my head so that's how I refreshed my braids when I
have them that's also how I moisturize my hair within the braids and how I keep
my scalp healthy I keep my edges healthy lay my edges
tea's sensitive so please don't cross me my loyalty is it so please look alright
