Protecting your hair is key for growing long natural hair. If you need ideas for protective hairstyles for hair growth, you have come to the right place. Protective hairstyles can be a wide range from braids to weaves to lace wigs when installed properly. Here are some of the best hairstyles for hair growth:
Braids
Braids help to protect your hair for hair growth if they are installed correctly. Braids such as box braids or two strand twists with extensions wrap your hair in a barrier and this barrier is the extensions so your hair is in a cocoon where it can grow. You should always tell your stylist not to pull too tight when she or he is braiding your hair. In order for hair growth to happen in an optimal way, make sure that your braids are not done too tight and ensure that your edges are not being pulled.
