Hey honey... I've been where you're at 1000 times over :)

1) Consider that your hair sheds over 100-200 strands every day. If you have braids in for 1 week, your hair can't shed for that week. But when they come out, that's over 1000 strands that you'll be shedding!

You might also want to try:

2) Getting your ends clipped. Healthy ends are the key to healthy hair!

3) Are you trying to go natural? If you are, you are going to be losing a lot of the permed part of your hair as your natural hair grows in. This is a good thing since you want to get rid of the permed hair anyhow!

4) If you're not trying to go natural, remember that in order to keep healthy (permed) hair, you need to be getting a touch up (at the latest) at least every 8 weeks, otherwise like I said above, the permed part will start to break off.

5) Remember to give your hair a rest in between wearing braids for extended periods of time. Your scalp needs to breath too!

6) Remember to wait AT LEAST 2 weeks after getting a perm before you put braids in. Your hair is REALLY weak right after you perm it and braiding it would cause it a lot of stress which equals breakage.

last thing:

MICROS ARE THE DEVIL!!! If you're wearing micros, that probably the problem right there. Micro braids are one of the most unhealthy things Black ppl can do to their hair.

Good luck, hon!!

im 13 and i used to have the same problem until i got a perm.If or when you get a perm . Wash you hair every week and put treatment on it and dont use any products like gel because its makes your hair dry and flacky.

Maybe it's because the braids are too tight. If that's the problem you shouldn't get a perm, it could make it all fall out. Maybe start training it, combing it and greasing it on an every other day to day basis. I started doing that when I turned 13(I'm 15 now and I hate I started growing it out). Then some people jus have hair that breaks for no reason, it depends on who you are.
