So a fashion must do at the moment is….
……Turbans 
Here are some DIY pics…
Scarves: H & M £6-£7 (definitely worth it!)
I’ve definitely jumped on the bandwagon here! This is a fabulous way to keep your hair from breakage etc. by minimal manipulation of your hair especially if like me, you’re tired of weave/braids/twists etc. It’s my protective hairstyle as well as my can’t be bothered to do anything to my hair today hairstyle. Come uni and exam period, this is where it’s at!!
Here are some vlogs that show you how to achieve this and other turban looks:

What do you guys think about turbans right about now? What other shops do you suggest to get these scarves from?

So for protective hairstyle No.2 we have
……Kinky twists!!
Hair – Kinky twists
Colour – 4
Ratings:
- Look – 5
- Maintenance – 5
- Longevity – 5
- Results – 5
- AVERAGE – 5
I did this from December 10 to May 11 twice and I have to say guys, I absolutely LOVE this one. Definitely recommend it to everyone!! Why?
Because….
It’s
- simple
- easy to maintain – just oil your scalp once a week and you can use dry shampoo every 2 weeks to clean your scalp
- lasts for a long time (mine I wore for 2 – 3months and I did it twice)
- similar texture to my hair so didn’t look too rough with the regrowth
When I took it out my hair had grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrroooooowwwwwwnnn!! See the difference before (November 10) and after (March and May 11):
I think you’ll agree there’s a significant difference here in just under 6 months!! If you’re looking for a good protective hairstyle, look no further!!

Protective Hairstyle #1
June 20, 2011 in Hair care, Hair Styles, My Journey, Protective
The first protective hairstyle I went for was just before uni because my hair was verrrrryyy dry and I still was trying to get the hand of taking care of it.
I did a wig cap:
Hair – Premium Now 1x 8 inches and 1 x 23/27 set with fringe
Colour – 4
Ratings:
- Look – 3
- Maintenance – 5
- Longevity – 3
- Results – 0
- AVERAGE – 2.75
The pros about this hair style is that it was simple. I didn’t need to much apart from style it or run my fingers through it so my hair wasn’t being strained etc. (hence a high score for maintenance). HOWEVER I took this off after like three days and when I put it back on it wasn’t the same. It felt so insecure on my head so I took it off after only 2/3 weeks and I paid £60 (including the hair) for it. I was majorly upset and so I highly doubt I’ll ever do this again!
Have any of you tried wig caps? How did you find it?
