Chebe is the haircare secret of an African ethnic group in Chad known to have very long naturally coarse thick hair. They cover their hair in a home made mixture that keeps their hair super moisturized and lubricated which is the reason given for why they say their hair never breaks even from childhood. Directions: Take water or your own favorite hair oil mix or hair cream of your choice and add a teaspoon or more to the chébé powder and mix well. The first step is to get the hair wet though using regular water and alternate between the hair grease mix that you have just made and mix until the hair is fully saturated. Then braid the hair and once that braid is done wet it again with water to moisturize.  Then repeat that routine every 3 to 5 days if at by least re wetting the entire braid length again. Some people may initially think that their hair length is due to genetics, but after inquiring on the subject the chad women said that it was most definitely NOT due to genetics since they do not apply chébé powder mixture to their bangs which in turn stay short. However the parts of the hair which they do use the chebe powder mixture on in their weekly routine doesn't break and grows very long and strong as you can see the difference.
