Moisturize regularly

Between washes, you’ll also want to be sure that you are moisturizing your real hair on a regular basis. You can do this by using a leave-in conditioner spray such as the White Peony Leave-In Spray by Mielle Organics. One of the primary reasons for sew-in-related breakage is chronic dryness. Make sure you moisturize your hair after it has thoroughly dried underneath your sew-in. Also, don’t overdo it on the spraying. That can leave your braided hair wet and again, we promise that’s not what you want. Spray a leave-in lightly in your real hair and it will be refreshed.
