I've been transitioning to natural hair since February. I've never had trouble with breakage, but my hair was usually fragile after I permed it (during my perming days). It would take a few days for it to recover, but the fragileness was always there. As a protective style to help me transition, I did single braids last month. But before I did it, I washed my hair a day before and while washing it, I noticed it coming out a lot (this has never happened before). So I single braided it to get it out of my way and covered up. I took the braids out a few days ago and even though I got my mom to trim a good chunk of my hair before washing it, I still had a lot of breakage then too. So I just need advice on what I should do to transition successfully w/o losing all of my hair in the process. I've come a long way already and don't want to go back to perming. How often should I do protein treatments and what are good products to use? How about deep conditioning, moisturizing? Thanks.
