Do You Have to Braid Hair to Help Hair Growth Retention?




You don’t have to braid your hair. However keeping your hair in an hairstyle (protective hairstyle ) can help with hair growth retention because it minimizes manipulation which can cause breakage and when hair is left out, you also risk getting a lot of dryness, breakage and split ends.
