Wearing braids is a fantastic protective style, but it can sometimes come with an unwanted side effect: dandruff. If you’re experiencing flakes while your hair is in braids, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered. In this post, we’ll share scalp care tips to help you prevent dandruff while wearing braids.
1. Keep Your Scalp Clean
Dandruff can develop when your scalp isn’t properly cleaned. Build-up from hair products, oils, and dirt can lead to flakes. Use a sulfate-free shampoo like REIN’s Hydrating Shampoo to cleanse your scalp without stripping away its natural moisture.
2. Regular Moisturizing
Dry scalps are prone to dandruff. Regularly moisturizing your scalp with a lightweight serum like REIN’s Ultimate Hair Serum will help keep dryness and flakes at bay. Look for products with anti-inflammatory and soothing ingredients like REINSHINE and Lavender.
3. Don’t Scratch—Soothe
If your scalp starts to itch, avoid scratching as it can lead to more irritation and even infection. Instead, apply a soothing treatment like REIN’s scalp serum, which is enriched with antioxidants that calm the scalp and reduce itching.
4. Avoid Overusing Products
While it’s important to keep your scalp moisturized, using too many products can clog your scalp’s pores and contribute to dandruff. Stick to a simple routine with lightweight, effective products like those from REIN.
Dandruff doesn’t have to be an issue when you’re wearing braids. By keeping your scalp clean, hydrated, and soothed, you can prevent flakes and enjoy a healthy scalp. Incorporate REIN’s scalp-nourishing products into your braid-care routine to keep your scalp dandruff-free.
