I love how all of us POC women are so naturally talking about flakes and dry scalp without feeling judged. This western media/culture really made me feel “lesser than” for having flakes and dry scalp

Sis, you just SAVED MY BRAIDS. Not even a week in with my first ever set of braids and I was so desperate to cut them out and never do it again. I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong. THANK YOU.

Bout to do this right now, I did braids a couple days ago and I’m already getting flakes. Can’t bring myself to wash them cos they’re so fresh (I usually do wash braids weekly). FYI I’ve also heard using baby wipes is a good quick fix.

[@ajajanel777]

Have you tried the baby wipes method?

[@blankhole5145]

@@ajajanel777 what's the baby wipe method

[@sharisarmstrong]

My hair feels like it just got braided! I followed your process and my scalp hasn’t felt this good in two weeks! Thank you so much for this!!!

[@godofgaming3590]

My knees wobbled you you started scratching your scalp with the pick. It’s been too long since I felt that. Thanks for the video, well needed!

[@AnemeKun]

i'm shook. The last time i had braids - i deadass just let them get crunchy and didn't wash it and used all the dry shampoo in the world. I saw this video and bought (for the first time) a metal pick and an edge comb. Bet your booty I clicked those links and got some lavender oil and that head and shoulders spray. (I hope you're getting a kick back for the promotion.) If I watched your video at 430pm - by 11pm I was doing the routine. GUYS - this really works! and it was a fantastic self care break that I intend on doing once a week. Using the pic to upend the flakes is a great scalp massage and the DANDRUFF IS ALMOST ALL GONE. I'm so stoked. A great way to refresh my box braids and treat my dry dry scalp

[@Ravin2982]

OMG ! I suffer from dry scalp and I was looking for a way to clean my scalp with my box braids. This is my first time seeing the medal comb technique. Can’t wait to try this! Thank youuuu!!!

[@elisabef]

Did you try it yet? I too suffer from a dry scalp I think 😭

[@Ravin2982]

elizabeth ツ yes! It worked great for me. The only downside was doing it by myself. My arms were getting tired. Also, instead of putting the water, apple cider vinegar and essential oils in a bowl, I put it in a small spray bottle and shook it up and spray it between all the parts.

[@aladynamedSusan]

If you have any type of dermititis or dandruff or dry scalp I bet those metal things feel so good lifting all the dirt from your scalp!!!! Omg I felt better just watching her 🤣🤣🤣

[@fuller02879]

Absolutely renewed my SCALP! Thank you! Especially the edge brush trick!

[@amberc9053]

This is great! I don't wear extensions, but when I do twists or braids, I will definitely try this

[@rwicks6361]

This tutorial was perfect thank you. I have had cornrows for like 12 years and always struggled with the scalp maitentence, so I couldnt have them in as long. Now due to Lockdown and all that, I have had to learn how to braids myself but can only do box braids on myself, so this video was perfect. Im onto my 2nd amount of braids since doing this and my scalp and hair feel so much healthier

[@aladynamedSusan]

I used to braid my hair with synthetic hair. My flakes were so bad I'd have to unbraid my hair like every week to comb the dandruff out and rebraid just to keep my hair feeling fresh. Now that my hair is longer I do box braids using my own hair and the dandruff is still TERRIBLE. My braids are so fresh and pretty and the baby hairs is laid lol but already it's only been like 3 days dandruff is building. I loved this video. I feel like now I can lift the dandruff without breaking my hair and protecting fresh style. And when you was cleaning your hair with that solution it looked like it felt so good!!!! Great Video Beautiful!

[@michellesaxton4225]

I am trying this as my routine when I have my protective style. Thank you queen! ❤❤❤🧡🧡🧡

[@cerysp3435]

I usually wear a scarf soon as my scalp and braids start flaking and getting itchy but felt like I'd look for a solution. Was abit doubtful as many things I've tried leave my hair frizzing out alot quicker. I done cider vinegar and tee tree oil only and my scalp feels refreshed, no frizzing and looks so clean!! Now I can put the scarfs away🙏🏽 thanks

[@Cece-em5vo]

I don't see how this will get rid of flakes in the actual roots of the sections tho. This seems to only clean in the parts

[@beautiflfvckr]

Ok I actually JUST followed this entire tut and it completely refreshed my jumbo twists using the rubber band method. Get the larger metal comb it feels like absolute heaven under my one month old twists. It does not disturb them or tangle anything (I was scared of that at first) I wish I was doing this every week this when I first got my twists (I probably wouldn’t have had so much dandruff) Nonetheless! This was an absolute savior honey! Thank you so much

Amazing tips!! 🙌🏼👑

[@katodd2925]

This method looks amazing!! Definitely trying this. I used my steamer on my hair first so it won't be completely dry when I take the flakes out

[@MissSenex]

I'm so glad I found someone who was familiar with this method and actually demonstrated it. I've had my yarn box braids in for a month. Wanted to refresh them and detox my scalp without washing them. This method would be perfect for me because I tried actually washing my scalp and my braids got soak and wet and took forever to dry. I wanted to stretch my hair at least another month. Planning on doing this method and I will be retouching the front. Thanks for posting.

[@misselle1430]

If you need to wash your braids you can just concentrate the shampoo and or condish on the scalp then when rinsing it off you hold your braids up high and either go under the sink and just concentrate on the scalp to rinse or in the shower just try to hold up hair although more awkward in shower .... also you can jut pour water with a jug while leaning over with braids held up !!! Hope it makes sense!!!!

I was getting very discouraged and thought that I was going to have to take my twist down to shampoo my hair. I came across this video and wow! Thank you so much! The only change I did in your recipe was adding a bit of my shampoo and adding lavender and rosemary essential oils. My scalp feels so clean and fresh! Thank you so so so so much!!💜💜😊😊

Welcome back KZbin hair twin! Great video! I've never had a build up issue and I only use a little oil and if my scalp itches I would use my peppermint oil concoction 🤭 or Seabreeze. I know others may have dry scalp or etc. It's also a great idea to clean the braiding hair before any style to reduce itching. As for my edges I gently shampoo, then condition every week and have been for years with no issues 😊
