Lost Your Edges? Here’s How to Bring Them Back—For Real

Lost Your Edges? Here’s How to Bring Them Back—For Real

By Hyde Salon

Let’s be real—when your edges start thinning or vanish completely, it can feel personal. Years of tight braids, glued wigs, sleek ponytails, or that “one last install” can leave your hairline hanging by a thread. But here’s the good news: your edges can come back.

At Hyde Salon, we’ve helped countless guests nurse their hairlines back to health—and confidence. Here's exactly how to start the journey, with no fluff and no false promises—just expert care and results you can see.

Step 1: Cut Out the Damage—Immediately

Want your edges back? It starts by saying goodbye to anything that’s snatching them away.

If your hairstyle leaves your scalp sore, causes bumps, or feels like a facelift? That’s trauma—plain and simple. The follicles can’t recover if they’re constantly under stress.

Hyde Pro Tip:
If you can't comfortably raise your eyebrows after a style, it's too tight. The right time to break the cycle is now, not after the next hairstyle.

Step 2: Cleanse + Nourish Your Scalp—Gently

To regrow edges, your scalp needs a clean, calm, and nourished environment. That means:

  • No sulfates

  • Deep hydration

  • Daily scalp massage (yes, really)

Our Must-Have Products:

Shibui Everydayness Shampoo
Sulfate-free and gentle—perfect for cleansing without stripping away natural oils that protect delicate edges.

Shibui Ultra Hydrating Conditioner
Softens brittle ends and keeps roots moisturized, helping reduce breakage as new growth kicks in.

Lakme K. Therapy Active Fortifying Lotion
A powerful, lightweight treatment that strengthens thinning areas and supports long-term growth. Massage into the scalp daily.

Hyde Tip:
Use your fingertips or a soft scalp massager in slow, circular motions. This boosts circulation and helps your products do the heavy lifting.

Step 3: Be Consistent Like It’s Your Job

Edge regrowth doesn’t happen overnight—it takes time, consistency, and protection.

Here’s the weekly routine we recommend:

  • 🧴 Cleanse with Shibui Everydayness Shampoo

  • 💧 Deep Condition weekly with Shibui Ultra Hydrating Conditioner

  • 💆🏽 Apply & Massage Lakme Fortifying Lotion into your edges daily

  • 🌙 Wrap in Silk or Satin at night to prevent friction and breakage

Give it a few weeks of steady effort, and you’ll start to see those baby hairs creeping back in.

Step 4: Choose Styles That Help, Not Hurt

Protective styles should actually protect. That means choosing options that are low-tension and high-comfort, like:

  • Loose twists or braids

  • Glueless wigs

  • Silk-lined head wraps

  • Clip-ins and headband wigs
