How To Wash Crochet Braids |
I have never been one to wash my hair during a crochet braids style. I would only do a 'quick wipe down weekly,' but that's about it. However, I thought this was not a healthy practice to continue, especially since I typically wash my hair weekly.
So why not wash and condition your own hair while wearing crochet braids?
Materials
- Netted Cap
- Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse (3 parts water to 1 part ACV)
- Leave-In Conditioner (mixed with water)
- Oil

How To Wash Crochet Braids |
Allow the ACV to remain in your hair for 10 minutes before rinsing out with warm water. Continue to massage your scalp to completely rinse out the ACV.

Squeeze the excess water from the bantu knots and allow the hair to air dry until damp. Take off the netted cap. Spray your leave-in conditioner to your braiding foundation and massage that moisture in. Then massage your oil after the leave-in conditioner to seal the moisture. (I used Giovanni and liquid coconut oil ).
Allow your crochet braids to air dry for an hour or two, then take your hair out of the bantu knots. Add a light mousse or light styling product to give your hair a nice bounce and shine!
Optional - use a conditioner to co wash your crochet braids to give a moisturized and healthy look. Your crochet braids will look dull over time. Co washing will give your crochet braids shine and lots of life!
