Even when utilizing weaves, you know some people try to use sew-ins as a way to escape their hair when, in reality, all of the same principles and practices that apply fundamentally outside of a sew-in applied during a sew-in. What that means is, if you wouldn't put heat on your hair every day without a sew-in, then you shouldn't do that with the leaf out sew-in or to your leave-out. If you know that it's not good to go extended periods of time without shampooing and washing your hair, then the same thing applies to the sew.
