In most cases, some of the hairstyles some women think can protect their hair actually damage it.  Here are some styles   that damage African women’s hair.

Tight braids

When women make braids, whether big or small, that are really tight and then pack it up in a bun, they are pulling their hair from the scalp. At the end of the day, they are likely to develop traction alopecia which is hair loss gotten from the trauma repeatedly damaging the hair.

Using too much edge control

Having curly baby hair might look nice and attractive to some people  but always using edge control will just damage your hair, this is because most people don’t wash it off and that causes hair loss.

Always wearing a wig

You might think wearing a wig is protecting your hair, but it’s destroying it because you are not taking care of your hair underneath. You still need to wash and moisturize your hair underneath the wig; it’s also important to wear a wig cap.

Also, traction alopecia caused by using too much heat, relaxers and washing her too frequently or not enough causes hair loss in women.

Tight cornrows

Cornrows are so tight that they damage the hair at a molecular level. Have you ever made cornrows, and you could barely turn your head, and it had bumps that are a clear sign it’s damaging your hair?

Ghana braids

No hairstyle pulls at your hair more than Ghana braids. This is because it usually starts with the smallest hair strand at the fore and keeps pulling the hair back. By the time you want to lose the braids, half of your hair will be gone and for many women they would discover that the hairstyle actually damages their hair.
