Here's a step-by-step guide to properly wash and care for your hair. First, detangle your hair from ends to root before shampooing. Then, braid your hair loosely in large sections and tie the ends with a rubber band. Use a dilute sulfate-free shampoo in lukewarm water and let it soak gently washing in lukewarm water. Condition and let it sit for 10-20 minutes. Rinse and towel dry, then unbraid and finger comb. Let your hair air dry to restore natural curls and style when completely dry.
