Braid Extensions
Braid Extensions For Children Extensions seem to be too heavy on a child's scalp. If you use extensions on your child, ask the hair stylist not put them in too heavy. Use medium to large sized parts then apply the equal amount of hair...not a large amount of extension hair to less of the child's hair.
Combs/Pressing. A good tip for hot pressing children's hair is to add oils to damp hair after the hair is shampooed and towel squeezed. If you are not used to-or skilled at handling a hot comb, please have a professional do so. Afro detangler is gentle and all natural, a good idea for children's afro hair.

Kia: DECEMBER 22, 2005 Hi Robin, I love the Afro Detangler! I washed/conditioned my daughter's natural (4B, 9 inch long) hair this past weekend. I have always washed her hair in thick braids because her hair is so thick, and this method makes it more manageable. (So, thank you for sharing this method with everyone!) I used the Afro Detangler as a leave in conditioner. Then, after taking each wet braid out, I put a little more Afro Detangler on each wet braid, and used my fingers to detangle. Wow! Then, I followed with a wide-tooth comb. Her hair was so soft. I blowed her hair dry, using a little more AfroDetangler before blowdrying each section. I have also been using a little nightly before braiding her hair. Each morning, when I make her "afro puff", I squeeze the puff with a small amt of the Afro Detangler. Her hair is so moist! and not oily! Previously, I was using hair oils, pomades, etc.. but the puff was always so dry. It also softens her "kitchen" (area at the nape of the neck), which usually gets tangled easily. This product is wonderful. Thank you!

Message: The Afro Detangler is the miracle that I've been searching for my daughter's beautiful curly, yet extremely hard to manage, hair for the past 5 years. I'm a customer for life!
Marla: July 17, 2005: Dear Robin: I am so glad for your Afro Detangler product. I have purchased a 1/2 gallon for my 3 girls ages, 5, 8, and 13. I love it and they love it. One of them are tender scalped and actually allows me to comb hair now. It really detangled just as you stated. Thank you so very much for this product.

Relaxers
If you can keep children's hair out of relaxers, do so. If you absolutely need to put in a relaxer, use the most gentle one you can find. If you do not want to add a relaxer to your child's hair, Try the Afro Detangler instead. It will detangle and keep the hair healthy. You can also use this detangler creme to hot press or flat iron the hair. It is all natural.
No Lye relaxers seem gentle but are not. Have a professional apply a Lye relaxers for children. If you are skilled at applying the relaxer, only allow it to loosen the coil. It is safer to relax the hair starting at age 8. Avoid applying the relaxer to the scalp. (use an applicator brush to avoid the scalp). Have someone hold the hair sections upward or outward after each section is applied with relaxer -holding the hair at the ends. This is so the relaxer creme will not make contact with the scalp or the rest of the hair. This can only be done if the child's hair is long. Children's hair can still be healthy with relaxers. I have seen this many times. The hair HAS to stay deep conditioned with cholesterol, or a protein based conditioner. Always handled gently and shampoo gently. Cholesterol will soften the hair and Infusium 23 will strengthen it-in turn the hair will be healthier, stronger and easier to manage over a period of time. Flat Ironing Creme will cause the hair to keep moisture and prevent breakage. This creme is all natural and ideal for children's hair as well.
