How To Tame Your Edges & Frizz Weekly
🎯 Goal: Keep your braids looking fresh, polished, and well-maintained by controlling edges and reducing frizz.
✨ Why It Matters
Even the neatest braids start to show signs of frizz and fuzzy edges after a week or two. Taming them helps your braids look salon-fresh for longer and boosts your confidence.
🪄 How to Tame Edges & Frizz Like a Pro
🔹 1. Lay Your Edges with Care
Use a non-flaky, alcohol-free edge control gel
Apply a pea-sized amount on clean edges
Gently smooth and shape using an edge brush or toothbrush
Style into swoops, waves, or straight-down lines
Cover with a satin or silk scarf for at least 10 minutes to set
💡 Pro Tip: Don’t apply new gel over old buildup—clean edges first with a damp cloth before restyling.
🔹 2. Apply Mousse to Tame Frizz on Braids
Choose a lightweight foaming mousse (no alcohol or drying agents)
Pump mousse into your palm and smooth evenly over the length of your braids
Focus on the roots, crown, and any frizzy areas
Wrap braids with a satin scarf for 10–15 minutes to flatten and set
💡 Pro Tip: Mousse also works great after washing or refreshing your scalp.
🔹 3. Trim Flyaway Hairs (Only if Needed)
Use small, sharp scissors
Carefully trim visible hairs sticking out of the braid (do not cut too close to avoid damaging your real hair)
Work in good lighting and trim only a little at a time
💡 Pro Tip: Only trim if frizz is excessive—some natural fuzz is normal and healthy!
