I’ve tried so many protective styles over the years including braids, wigs, weaves and twists. The best thing about protective styling is that you wake up with your hair pretty much done every day, something that I revel in when comparing the daily management of my curly hair when I decide to wear it in a natural style. Most of the time now I opt for a U-part wig. I leave two thirds of my hair cornrowed underneath and then the top section covers and blends in with the rest of the wig for a seamless look. When it comes to wigs and weaves, you can really experiment with length and colour without having to work without commitment too. Honestly, if you haven’t tried a protective style for your afro textured hair in summer, I urge you to you’ll love much time and worry it’ll free up, so you’ll have more hours spend lapping up the rays instead. Here are some of the protective styles I’ve bookmarked for the months to come.
