Braids never really went out of fashion in the black community but have you ever wondered if they are actually any good for your hair?

This was the final instalment in our Hair Clinic With Philip Kinglsey series. We looked at a range of subjects including what relaxers really do to the hair and scalp, why our hair grows at different rates and how often should afro hair really be washed.

This was just scratching the surface when it comes to afro hair, so please subscribe to our YouTube channel to see the other topics we discussed and if there were questions you’d like us to put to Philip Kinglsey in the next Hair Clinic series, please let us know by commenting below.
