Synthetic hair is toxic!

The last time I used fake hair to braid my hair was in January 2024 and I left it in for a week and in a half, I was going through a tough time and I couldn’t stand the sight of it anymore. It was heavy and I hated it. For now I don’t plan to use braids in my hair anytime soon.

I started doing some research about synthetic hair because I realize every time I use any braiding hair that is synthetic, my scalp is itching a lot and I have a lot of dandruff which is an indication that my scalp is not healthy and that only happens when I use braiding hair! I had a rash on my scalp at one point and my scalp was soooo irritated but I would still use the braiding hair because I wanted “ to give my hair a break” but then as I take the braids out, my hair would shed so much even if I only leave it in for 2 weeks! And my scalp would be sooo irritated.

When I stopped using fake hair my scalp is a lot healthier although I have to wash my hair once a week because of products build up. But my scalp doesn’t itch anymore unless I use a new product that my hair doesn’t like.  Many women have scalp irritations and they even break out on their face when they use fake hair . Why do we use it? It’s not good for us! Honestly I am tired of using any fake hair I just want to love myself as I am.
