Loose cornrow braids with/without added hair

The looseness of the cornrows are vital to this style. Cornrows provide well needed rest to your hair and can last up to 2 weeks without redoing.

The versatility of braid patterns mean that cornrows can always be styled to suit you.

Just remember to keep the braiding loose, tight braids are a no-no!

In order to get the MAXIMUM benefits from cornrows, they are never to feel tight, -not for 2 days, 1 day or even 30 minutes. Keep them loose.

Loose fishtail braid/s

The greatest thing about this fashion trend is no matter the regrowth, no matter how long between hair appointments, as long as your hair reaches mid neck, you can rock this protective style, just add hair to the end of yours.

The looseness of this style mean the is no strain on your hairline,  together with the fact that it lessens the need for heat, you can rock this style without freshly straightening, blowdrying or relaxing. On top of all that,  the day-to-day wear and tear actually makes this style look better; perphaps this is the reason why fishtail braids are so popular!

Curly afros

The best thing about this style is how it naturally derives from aged twist outs, all you need is great moisturisers like atrActiva detangling mist, or some water and creamy leave ins like Baba de Caracol. Then, apply and/or work through your hair carefully separating and revitalising your curls.

With this style, your hair is FREE, unrestrained, regularly moisturised and allowed to be.

Remember hair not bothered- grows.....
