So I’ve been natural for about 5 months now…YEAH ME..lol. Well I’ve learned how to do twists in my head and it has been a style that I’m really in love with. I’m recently trying to teach myself how to braid my hair and that has been a challenge.

For some reason when I braid, the braids don’t look fresh, they look as if they’ve been in my hair for weeks. This has made me very frustrated and also I can grip the little baby hairs in the front neither.

I’ve tried but someone told me to just shave them off and I really refuse to do that..I like my baby hair.

Any tips on how to make my braids look cleaner and how to grip my little baby hairs?
