Protective Styling with this Summer

Protecting your hair in Summer by styling it in a way that reduces handling or management is a great idea. The twists, braids, cornrows, weaves, or the simple pulled back bun is a great way to keep your hair protected in the humidity and heat of summer.

 

 

Protective styling is especially useful if you are going on holiday, swimming often or going to the beach on a regular basis. However, protective styling only benefits your hair when it's done right.  

 

 

Contrary to popular belief, protective styling does have maintenance to it. 

The absolute worst thing you can do is to protective style and forget about it for three weeks.

You will be shocked at how dry and potentially damaged your hair is because of the lack of moisture and nutrients.

 

  

Like our bodies, our hair needs food on a regular basis. If we forget to eat, we will starve and the same proves true for our hair. If we do not feed it, it will starve. 

The last thing you want, is to dehydrate your hair with a protective style.

 

 

 

The good news is when protective styles are well maintained you will reap the benefits.

Giving your hair that break from handling will induce growth and general health, because the hair shaft will have time to rest.
