1 / 11 Having smooth, healthy edges is a key part of maintaining overall hair health, but many of us struggle with rough, dry, or broken hair along our hairline. Whether it's due to tight hairstyles, excessive heat, or lack of proper care, rough edges can become frustrating to deal with. Here are some tips featuring Sreeleela!
2 / 11 Dry edges are more prone to breakage and roughness. Use a moisturizing cream, oil, or leave-in conditioner regularly to keep your edges hydrated.
3 / 11 Avoid harsh shampoos that can strip your hair of natural oils.
4 / 11 Styles like tight ponytails, braids, or buns can stress the hair around your edges and cause them to break.
5 / 11 When going to bed, wrap your hair with a silk or satin scarf or sleep on a silk pillowcase.
6 / 11 Gently massaging your scalp and edges with your fingertips promotes blood circulation, which helps encourage healthy hair growth and reduce roughness.
7 / 11 While edge control gels can help smooth down edges, they can also lead to buildup if used excessively.
8 / 11 Trim your hair and edges every few weeks to remove split ends and prevent roughness.
9 / 11 Frequent use of hot tools like flat irons and curling irons can damage your edges.
10 / 11 Healthy hair starts from within. Drinking plenty of water and eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals (such as biotin and vitamin E) can improve the condition of your edges and hair overall.
11 / 11 When styling your edges, opt for a soft bristle brush or an edge control comb rather than a harsh brush.
