Bedtime Protective Styles

The natural hair journey is one that requires much discipline and dedication. As such, it is very important for you to be very diligent about your hair care regimen. One very important daily routine that is of bedtime protective styling. This will vary based on your preference. Protective styling options that I consider very useful include two-strand twists, flat twists, plaits, cornrows or bantu or nubian knots (commonly known in my culture as chiney bumps). Each will give a different look when loosened. Bedtime protective styles keep your hair healthy and moisturised. These styles protect your hair ends from exposure to the air which can cause excessive dryness, which ultimately leads to breakage. The advantage of protective styling is that it keeps moisture in your hair… where it belongs.
