Protective Hairstyles

Here are some Protective Styles that will give your hair a much needed break.  These styles assist with hair retention when done correctly.

FYI:
Keep Hair moisturized and clean (i.e. braids & Twists with extensions can cause matted dirt ball that will rip out your hair)
Make sure braids and sew- ins are not too tight
Avoid glue on your hairline(lace front wearers)
Don't wear styles more than 2-3 monthes (sew-ins, braids, twists)
Don't pull puffs/buns/ponytails too tight

Styles:

Braids

All these styles are fairly easy to do on your own, which will save you money!!!  I have done a few of these styles by myself or by a family memebr(sew-ins) and received a lot of compliments!!

Enjoy!
