There is a very delicate spot on the hair strand. The spot sits where your new growth and relaxed hair meet. This point is called the line of demarcation. All of these things can contribute to breakage. If the hair is breaking at the line of demarcation, the hair on the floor or in your comb is probably a straight piece of your relaxed hair.

My immediate suggestion is that you can tie your edges down. Depending on your hair, adding product to your hair will not make it lie flat and will need to be coaxed. Simply tieing a scarf around your edges at night can give you the results you are looking for. Do you know any products I can use to increase hair growth?

Here are a few tips you can do: Read our growth guide: Instead of buying pricey products, buy the actual ingredients that they claim to have. So, buy some olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, and whatever else you may think you want to try out. Most times, the actual natural ingredient is way cheaper and lasts way longer.

Keep it simple- This is probably the most important. I promise you that you do NOT need every thing that a line of products offer or everything you hear everyone else using. Before you do all of that, stop yourself and start with the basics; shampoo, conditioner, and moisturizer and go from there. Anything else I use on my hair is a natural oil or shea butter.
