As we always say at the LHCF, every head of hair is different. I personally love braids and once I figured out that hair was supposed to shed normally, I've been fine with them. My hair doesn't ever thin, but the hairline is something that needs constant care and a GOOD braider who knows not to pull too tight. I've gotten alot of growth, and braiods have allowed me to keep my hands off and let it grow. BUT, if you feel that braids are seriously thinning your hair, then you should give it a break. I always give myself a at least a month off between braid styles so that I can deep condition. I have talked to some whose hair doesn't do well in braids. It's like some ladies swear by LUST and Pantene S&S, and I feel these conditioners do nothing for my hair.
BTW, what type of braids do you have? Micros can really thin you out and put alot of stress on the strands.

I've noticed that my hair at the front of my head is thinning out because of constant braids!
What do I do? Should I stop braiding or get conrows instead? I will appreciate all your suggestions. Thanks in advance

I say stop with the braids before you suffer from traction alopecia.

we have opposite problems I am currently in braid and wearing braids has made my hair thicker and my
hair line has grown back.
I use nioxin follice booster and profectiv
anti-thinning circulant stimulant on my hair line.
I usually wait three to four weeks between braiding my hair.
