Are you tired of over manipulating your natural hair and still have a pretty hairstyle? Well you can have the best of both worlds with protective styles. You can do hairstyles such as braids with or without knots, wigs, weaves, faux locs, crochet braids/ locs, bohemian braids, cornrows and so much more! Just remember to moisturize your hair with leave-in conditioner and seal the moisture with oil. In order for protective styles to work we must moisturize our hair.

I like to use products from Pattern Beauty which caters to natural hair. I buy them at Sephora on the corner of 47th St & 5th Ave. The products that I use are the hydration shampoo, the heavy condition, styling cream and the hair oil. I usually wear mini twists for my protective hairstyle. What’s yours?
