Protective Styling.

Hi :)
To anyone who has ever googled anything about natural hair care, the term 'protective styling' should be very familiar. Today I will try to teach you guys a little something about an easy protective style I love doing. This style is best achieved on stretched hair.

First, pull all your hair up into a neat puff with a loose hair band/headband or elastic band (though elastic bands are known to pull out hair so this is only in the case of a last resort really).

Next, comb the packed hair out and fan it so that it is spread out radially.

Depending on the volume of hair, divide the spread hair into 4-5 sections and twist each section loosely.

Lastly, lay each twist around the margin of the hair band and pin them with bobby pins into place. Below is the expected result:

I hope it was easy to understand! Please send pictures of successful attempts to: elizabeth.peters@live.co.uk

Have a lovely day xo
