SUMMER IS HERE
With the warmer temperatures comes the desire to protect your natural hair from the harsh sun, chlorine, and saltwater. Natural hair care products can only do so much. Sometimes, your hair just needs a break from the outside world. Protective hairstyles are a terrific way to keep your hair healthy and prevent breakage. Here are some of the top protective hairstyles for black women with natural hair during the summer months.
Braids
Braids are a classic protective style that can last for weeks at a time. There are several types of braids to choose from, including box braids, Boho knotless, and bohemian twists. Not only do braids protect your hair, but they also look great and are minimal maintenance. Our Mega growth or Plant-powered Oil pairs wells with braids. Your hair will love the lightweight moisture!
Bantu Knots
Bantu knots are a versatile protective style that can be worn in diverse sizes and patterns. This style involves dividing your hair into small sections, twisting each section, and then coiling it into a knot. Bantu knots are perfect for summer because they keep your hair off your neck, and they can be undone for a beautiful curly hairstyle. When taking down Bantu knots, use our Break No More Styling bundle to give your curls a refreshed look
