Here's my beginner friendly routine for doing my sew in maintenance at home πβ¨. I'm proud of how well I blended my leave out LOL. π WASH: I used some CΓ©cred hair products for my wash day, including their clarifying shampoo and scalp scrub, hydrating shampoo, and hydrating conditioner. π DRY: After applying my leave in, I dried my braids under my portable hooded blowdryer. Once my braids were dry, I re-wet my leave out and extensions with water (using a 360 mist spray bottle) and did a blowout using "The Blockade" heat protectant by Amika and a boar bristle round brush. π STYLE: I then flat ironed my hair using a ceramic flat iron, and Amika's "The Shield" anti-humidity spray. To add some curls, I used the 1.25" T3 Micro Extended Barrel Curling Iron. For finishing touches I added edge control, hair dye spray (to camouflage thinning areas), and a lightweight shine spray by Kenra. For reference, I have 4A/4B natural hair. LTKFindsUnder100 LTKBeauty
