A protective style on natural hair is when you are protecting your hair and its ends. It doesn't always have to be braiding hair styles or twisting styles. It can be braid outs, twist outs, bantou knot outs, curl formers and many more.
You can go on YouTube and search up some protective styles for your hair.
An important thing to know is that you need to leave your hair alone sometimes. What I mean by that is do some styles that can be easily managed and don't be doing your hair everyday. Some twist outs can stay looking good for maybe 3 days. Your 4C hair will do good when you let it grow and not be always having your hands in it doing stuff.
So that's it for today's entry. I hope you enjoyed.
