What is Chebe Powder?
Chebe Powder is an ancient hair care remedy that possesses remarkable healing properties and has been the secret to Chadian women having long, lustrous hair for multiple generations. Below, we will provide you with instructions on how to use Chebeauty’s Chebe Powder to make the best of Chebe’s natural properties.
Step-by-Step Process for Applying Chebe Powder
- Step 1: Mix 4 tablespoons of powder with 2 tablespoons of oil or butter of your choice until a thick paste is formed.
- Step 2: Divide your hair into sections and apply the mixture to clean, damp hair avoiding the scalp. Make sure to distribute evenly.
- Step 3: Once your hair is fully coated, wrap it with a plastic cap to facilitate the absorption of the mixture into the hair shaft.
- Step 4: Allow the Chebe Powder treatment to sit on your hair for a minimum of two hours, or for enhanced results, leave it in overnight.
- Step 5: Thoroughly rinse your hair, making sure you got rid of all the residue.
- Step 6: Follow up with Chebe Deep Conditioner to reintroduce moisture to your hair. We recommend repeating each step after 5-7 days.
What are the kinds of Chebe Powder available on the market?
here are two kinds of Chebe Powder available on the market at the moment - the modified version and the traditional one. The modified version takes some of the key ingredients of the traditional product but adds synthetic ingredients and preservatives which may be more harmful to your hair health in the long run.
The traditional formula that Chadian women use has Chebe Powder mixed into a paste using oil and tallow and is completely natural, with no harmful side effects. Once the mixture is ready, it is applied on the already clean, damp hair, then left in for several days. Here at Chebeauty, we believe that it is important to not only honor the Chadian traditions we draw inspiration from but also provide customers with the best quality products, which is why we produce the traditional version of the product.
