Before I started wrapping my hair at night with a scarf it was fine. But a year or so later, it has reduced in thickness and length tremendously. I was wondering if this might have anything to do with it. Could it be the hair relaxer I use too? Help me please, I don't want to go bald lol.This question is for black/ ethnic women who wrap their hair... does wrapping cause it to fall out/ break off?
possible reasons for your breakage
1) if you have recently changed relaxer or recently started using one then you may be applying it improperly or not moisturizing your hair enough which causes breakage
2) if you wear a cotton scarf to wrap your hair at night. cotton dries out the hair which can cause breakage. use only satin or silk scarfs for wrapping the hair
3) you may be wearing your scarf wrong. the know, where you tie the scarf should be in a place that does cause you to rub against it while you sleep. preferably in the front because most people do not sleep on their face.This question is for black/ ethnic women who wrap their hair... does wrapping cause it to fall out/ break off?
It could be the relaxer that you are using . And sometimes wrapping your hair can cause breakage if you don't wrap it properly .
if your doing everything the same as you where a year ago then its probably the added combing. Black hair needs little manipulation so combing it and brushing it round and round everynight could be the cause. I used to wrap my hair and I started noticing thinning. It was because of the added combing and brushing. Just sleep with a satin bonnet on your hair and you should be fine. Remember to spray your hair with a moisturizer/leave in before going to bed.
Its the relaxer and the scarf, you should go natural, much better for your hair. I know, I know, I know its hard for a lot of black women to do. So.....
If you were using a cotton scarf that's the culprit. The cotton dries out your hair, which makes the hair brittle, then causes it to pop. A silk or satin scarf is best. To repair damage, condition, condition, condition. And use less heat.
