Hair Lessons from the Basara Tribe Hair Care Routine

1. Moisture is key: After watching the video, there were a couple of things I noticed that doing them will improve the health of my hair & maybe eventually give me the length of the Basara Arab women of chad. Firstly, before applying any other products, the women apply some water to their hair & then their ingredient mix to keep the hair hydrated & moist. These women know that keeping hair well hydrated actually helps to reduce breakage & promote hair health.

2. Do your hair in sections: Did you also notice that they separated their hair into manageable sections so that each strand of hair receives the proper hair care it deserves? The texture of the hair of Basara women is not as kinky as the 4c type hence the 4-5 sections they have. if your hair is thicker, you may have to work your hair in about 8-9 sections. Ever since I started to wash & deep condition my hair in sections, I realized that I have lesser tangles in my hair & my wash day is faster.

3. Protective style as much as you can: After applying the Chebe powder in their hair, they do their hair in about 4 plaits. Then they repeat the entire process every 5 days.

4. Use natural ingredients: You will also notice that all the ingredients used in the Chebe mixture are all natural, including the Khumra fragrance they added to it. This goes without saying about the huge benefits we get from using natural products in our hair. Now that we are here, let’s talk about the ingredients & how they make the Chebe powder. The ingredients are very specific to Chad and Sudan, meaning that it’s probably hard to find in Western countries. However, if you want to buy shébé mixture you can follow on Instagram for updates. Ms Sawel Paterson who is a blogger from Chad shared how she prepares the Chebe mixture.

Ingredients for a small jar:

3 tablespoons of Chéwé/Chébé/Shebe powder

1 tablespoon of Mahalaba

1/2 teaspoon of cloves

1/2 teaspoon of incense resin (Misik)

1 teaspoon of Humra perfume

3 tablespoons of virgin coconut oil

**Disclaimer*** This kind of routine would probably not work for someone who lives in the West, or even someone who lives in Africa with a different lifestyle. No one goes out on the daily with (what is basically) deep conditioner in their hair. It could be a great add to a weekly routine nonetheless. The texture of the hair do not look kinky because the weight of the powder relaxes the hair and gives it a curly appearance and with this weight the hair does not shrink. On the other hand, their fringes have a kinky texture. -Miss Sahel
