1. Protective styles can offer your hair the luxuries of wellness and relaxation that a maintained style can achieve for a period of 3-6 weeks if it is styled in a no or low manipulation alternative way.
2. Protective styles are designed to retain growth while you are growing your hair longer and to keep your hair soft during this process.
3. Protective styles provide you with the chance to change your look and to try out something completely new as your hair is taking a much-need break from styling products and heat.
The idea here is to reduce the amount of damage that daily maintenance with styling products and heat can do to your natural hair. After the protective style has been removed, it is natural to have hair breakage and growth. You should moisturize and maintain your style during wear. Select styles that require very little or no manipulation. Low manipulation styles include: twist-outs, cornrows, and braids that get re-braided at night before going to bed, or buns tucked into styles. (There will be some breakage that will naturally occur due to daily care.) Those styles save time. No manipulation styles: weaves, wigs, flat twist, braids, twist. Those styles do not require any daily combine and fingers or a wide-tooth comb are best to use. If maintained properly there should be minimal breakage.
