Protective Hair Styles for Relaxed Hair?
Shante from Thomasville, GA asked:
What are some good protective hair styles for relaxed hair?
Shante, if you’re anything like me, you’re in a constant quest for a sophisticated and polished, yet healthy do that will allow your locks to rest! Well, I am here to tell you that there are some fabulous styles for your relaxed hair. I believe that it is quite necessary to keep your relaxed hair off of your shoulders, especially at that awkward shoulder length, to ensure retention.
So to get you started I will list a few of my favorite ones:
- My all time favorite is the bun! It’s quite versatile and chic at the same time!
- The rollerset is another great one! Make sure that your curls are tight enough to keep it off of your shoulders.
- Two strand twists or braid outs are always fun!
- Rollerset pin up
- Braids–micro braids are not suggested as they cause tension.
This will get you started on keeping your locks protected. Be sure to do some experimenting to add some zest!!
