2. Roll your ends. I use satin covered sponge rollers on my ends so that they're not stick straight. I braid the hair until right before it starts to thin, and then I roll it from the ends until it hits the braided part. This method also disguises the thinning toward the ends.
3. Maintain a braidout by moisturizing and sealing then rebraiding--in fewer sections than the original set or piling it on top of your head and covering it with a bonnet. You can get the hair on top of your head by putting your cap on upside down, pulling the hair into a high loose ponytail, or pinning up the sides and back.
4. DO NOT COMB A BRAIDOUT!! I once combed out a braidout before rebraiding for the night and the next morning I looked terrible. Combing also increases the amount of manipulation and number of hairs on your floor. Save yourself the agony and just braid it back up waves and all.
