Many people often ask about breakage etc when getting braids out. Here is a guideline of what to do what having them removed.

How to Prevent Breakage While Taking Down Your Protective Style
1. Gather the right tools
How you take out your style and what tools you need will ultimately depend on how it was done.

Without hair added: If you have braids, twists, and locs without hair added, then you’ll want to grab two types of combs before getting started: a rat-tail comb and a comb with medium-sized teeth. The skinny tip on the rat tail comb can help you unravel the ends of the braid without excess tugging. Just don’t attempt to come through your hair with the fine teeth on the head of the tool. After you’ve gotten most of the braid out, you can use the medium-sized tooth comb to further unravel and comb through your hair.

With hair added: Consider cutting the ends of your hand if you added hair to your braids or twists. This will help speed up the process of taking down your protective style. To be sure you don’t cut your own hair accidentally, cut at least two to three inches below where your hair stops. If you’re unsure of where your hair stops and the added hair begins, then skip this step. It’s better to be patient and just come out the ends until you get to the root!
If you don’t have a comb, don’t worry! It isn’t impossible to take down your hair. In fact, some hairstylists actually prefer taking down protective styles with their fingers. It’s ultimately up to you but between your fingers, a rat-tail comb, and a medium-sized comb, you’ll be able to get your protective style out gently.

2. Dampen and detangle the hair
Dampening your hair to keep it moist is a good way to keep both the tangles and the damage at a minimum while you’re taking your hair down. A good product to use is a leave-in conditioner or a mixture of water and a regular conditioner in a spray bottle. Your hair will be delicate and has the potential to break easily as it’s in its most delicate state when wet. Generously coat and massage conditioner into the braids and then go slowly.

Don’t worry if you seem to be shedding quite a bit. Remember, your hair hasn’t been out of the protective style for a while. It is natural to lose some hair during this process.

3. Loosen locs carefully
Locs aren’t nearly as easy to remove as braids or other protective hairstyles. While it can be done, some individuals choose to cut their locs rather than taking the time to comb them out because it can take days. If you want to comb out your locs to keep the length, be prepared for the time commitment. It can be done, but it will be difficult. If you’ve had your locs for years, consider seeing a professional to minimize the breakage and damage on your hair.

4. Practice after-care
Regardless of how careful and gentle you are while taking down your protective style, you’re guaranteed to have some sort of damage to your curl pattern once you’ve taken the style out. Often, this will look like frizz and temporary curl disruption. Practicing after-care can help get you through this period and get your curls back to normal.

After taking out your protective style, use a clarifying shampoo and a deep conditioning treatment. This will help you get a good start in restoring your natural hair.

5. Avoid getting the same style repeatedly
You may love one particular protective style more than all the rest but resist the urge to get it repeatedly. Switching up how you style your hair prevents you from having repeated tension and pressure on the same parts of your hair. Often, people take down their protective style and see that various sections of their hair grow “faster” than others. More often than not this is because they repeatedly style their hair the same way, and it may be pulling on certain sections or causing breakage/damage in others.
