Hi lovelies, in today’s video, I’m sharing tips to help you prevent and heal bumps or what may look like little boils or rashes that are usually caused by tight braids.
These braid bumps are actually an inflammation of the hair follicles and you can find my braid bumps remedy or how to heal tight braid bumps in this video.
In addition, braid bumps can occur on your hairline, nape (close to your neck) and anywhere on your scalp.
Also, these braid bumps will go away naturally (after a few days) when you loosen tight braids but in severe cases of folliculitis ( inflammation of the hair follicles) please see a dermatologist.
I do not advice any addition of tension on your braid bumps. I also do not recommend using of essential oils.
Always check with your trichologist or dermatologist first.
P.s- you can find my detailed post on how to deal with braid bumps here.
