Braids with weave

I am going to braid my daughter's hair this weekend with weave. It looks like it could be breaking off, so I am going to DC it first. This is her first time with weave. Are there any precautions I should take? Are there any DC recommendations?

Please take care of her edges! Use less tension around the edges.

Thanks luvmeluvmyfro. I'll definitely keep that in mind.

When my daughter was two her hair broke off/fell out. It went from shoulder length to I good barely it braid it in some areas. I am still not sure why. She had a bad break out from eczema, the dr gave me a cream and said it was safe for her hair. Now I know it causes hair loss. Anyway she is 7 and now and we are finally seeing some results with hair growth. However I do not think it is as thick as it use to be. I made sure I kept her scalp clean and hair well conditioned. Also I cornrowed her hair and did box braids. When I did get cornrows done with weave hair I made sure they were not tight and I moisturized daily. I always did cornrows cause I didn't want her or her friends pulling on the braids. I also never kept them in more than 2 weeks.

Thanks, anewme223. Those are good tips.

Here are the results of my goofy kiddo!!!
