I have a client who is a fitness instructor and works out non stop. She is a head sweater. So her hair wet all the time. She has been getting major mats all the time! She braids her hair when she works out. Her hair is Covet and Mane and brand new. Any thoughts or tips?

Where is the matting happening? Is it up at the weft line or throughout her mids? Also is it just the weft hair that is matting or is it her natural hair matting WITH the wet hair?
It is up at the weft. She braided her hair and can’t get it unbraided. This has happened to her before. And always seems to happen on a holiday weekend.
She may just have a texture of natural hair that is rubbing against her wefts and causing the matting. You may want to suggest something like a tight ponytail then braid the pony to keep everything from moving around.
Yes! What McKenzie said. Also, She needs to get the sweat out and not let it dry (if it is drying or she’s waiting to remove braids). Wet extensions and drying in braids or a bun don’t mix. I have had clients sleep on wet hair in braids who forgot about the “no wet” rule and regretted it.
