The Pros And Cons Of Protective Styling

Should you break up or make up with protective styling?

Ladies, you are here to witness the battle between the pros and cons of protective styling. There can be only one winner here. Place your bets ’cause you’re about to find out!

Pros

1. Variety Of Options

Extensions, especially braids come in a variety of options for different styles. So if you want to look like Rihanna today and Taraji P. Henson tomorrow, no problem! Try some of these classic Rihanna hairstyles.

2. Colour For Every Mood

If you want to play around with colour and length, braids are available in a variety of colours! Like the Darling Super Star Hair Extensions is available in stunning ombre shades.

3. Easy To Style

Braids are easy to put on to hair, making you look fly everyday! Weaves are a little more complex, but that’s what your stylist is for! These braided hairstyles for afro hair are a must try!

Cons

1. Hair Breakage And Hairfall

Attaching and removing the extensions to and from your hair causes hair breakage and hairfall. Over braiding your hair can cause the most hair breakage of all so be careful and remember to vary your protective styles to give your hair a well-earned break.

2. Inability To Clean Properly

With braids on, it’s a bit easier to access your scalp, but with weaves there is no exposure to the scalp, making it difficult to properly clean your scalp.

With this information, the final winner of this topic depends on you! Sorry ladies.
