If you have 4c hair, you might know that manipulating the hair is one of the worst things to do. This also applies if you are transitioning from relaxed to natural hair because the problems are the same: Hair is brittle, dry and gets tangled easily. Protective styles can help you to allow your hair to grow without “bothering” it too much and causing breakage and split ends.
Find out how to have your questions answered personally…
Some of the most popular protective styles include:
- Twists
- Braids or Braids with extensions
- Bantu Knots
- Protective bun
- Locs – the ultimate protective style!
Make sure that regardless of the style you choose, your hair is not pulled back too tight! This can cause breakage and you’ll be right back where you started.
Sleep with a satin scarf or on satin pillow cases to further protect and maintain your hair.
