Braids hide the scalp, which is exactly the reason it dries out. African Pride's anti breakage sheen spray is built to get through a dense install and put moisture back on the scalp and the hair underneath, in one daily pass.

It also takes the soreness out of a fresh set. Those first few days after an install, when everything is tight, are what most people buy a braid sheen for.

  • Moisturises scalp and braids without a heavy coating
  • Eases the tight, sore feeling of a new install
  • Softens the hair and adds a natural shine
  • Works the same on locs and twists

Spray on the scalp and the braids daily. 12oz, which is a sensible size for a style you will be wearing for weeks. There is no ingredient list on the bottle beyond what the packaging carries, so check that if you are avoiding anything in particular.

Application tips

Part the braids with the nozzle rather than spraying at the surface, so the mist actually lands on the scalp instead of the outside of the install. Go row by row, then mist the lengths and smooth them down with your palms. Daily is the habit that works. On a new set, do it morning and night for the first few days while everything is still tight.

Results

The scalp under a fresh install stops feeling drawn and sore, which is usually the reason people buy a sheen spray in week one. Braids soften, stray hairs settle back down, and the style keeps a shine rather than going dusty and grey. Locs and twists take it the same way. Hair kept supple handles the tension of a braid better, so less of it snaps.
